| Topic | Daniel Radcliffe: "I Don't Owe J.K. Rowling My Support Anymore" |
| Goldenguy 05/05/24 9:17:33 AM #125 | Loved his response. It was perfect. He's right that his life and career are probably vastly different if not for Rowling, but also that nobody needs to follow such a person in being a piece of shit.

| Topic | Did you have unsupervised internet access at age 14? |
| Goldenguy 05/05/24 9:14:34 AM #39 | The literal only interaction I had with either parent about the Internet was when I got in "trouble" on AOL message boards for calling someone an ass goblin. Even so, my mom laughed at it.

| Topic | People on Twitter have a big issue with Caitlin Clark being televised but not |
| Goldenguy 05/04/24 1:06:34 PM #68 | Clark is one of the best female NCAA basketballers ever and her game as far as passing and shooting are entertaining. Unsurprisingly, it's drawing a lot of attention. I don't believe it's a racial thing, as on the men's side, everyone is (rightfully) on team LeBron or team Jordan, and anyone with an operating brain stem could agree that Steph Curry has been entertaining to watch.
If demand for Chicago Sky-involved games gets to a fever pitch, then yeah, definitely televise both. --- Quick to judge, quick to anger, slow to understand. Ignorance, prejudice, and fear walk hand in hand. |
| Topic | Would you take a physically or mentally stressful job for more pay? |
| Goldenguy 05/01/24 9:28:21 AM #14 | I have recently declined applying for internal jobs that would pay me $4-5 an hour more, either of which I likely would have been a shoo-in to get, because I don't want the heat.

| Topic | Your honest thoughts on people who claim dey are ok being single/alone? |
| Goldenguy 05/01/24 9:25:30 AM #12 | I'm one, having been single for six years now. I certainly go through times where I want to change that, but they're rarely lasting enough for me to actually take much initiative.
On the other hand, I have a buddy who can't be single and ended up marrying a Trumper. --- Quick to judge, quick to anger, slow to understand. Ignorance, prejudice, and fear walk hand in hand. |
| Topic | Donald Trump or a random number generator. |
| Goldenguy 04/30/24 9:16:55 AM #8 | The only thing here that even remotely gives me pause is the chance of it deciding to nuke anything, but also to be in that decision making spot, we would probably have to be in active heavy war. Trump is someone I could see just arbitrarily deciding to launch a nuke.

| Topic | I haven't puked since 1999 |
| Goldenguy 04/30/24 9:14:10 AM #14 | I'm only a couple of years out from my last emesis, which, strangely enough, was from an actual stomach bug. Before that I think I had gone a good 18 years or so. Last alcohol vomit was late 2020.
One thing I've never done in my life, however, is sneeze more than twice in a row. --- Quick to judge, quick to anger, slow to understand. Ignorance, prejudice, and fear walk hand in hand. |
| Topic | Would a Revolution by the Left Happen During a Second Trump Presidency? |
| Goldenguy 04/29/24 9:17:23 AM #43 | I think there's an illusion that gun ownership is low on the left, but that is probably because virtually everyone who is out buying enough guns for a small army (I have a libertarian coworker who has dozens) is on the right, and honestly.. you can't use them all at the same time.
That being said, I have a hard time envisioning a revolution like what we have seen in the past. --- Quick to judge, quick to anger, slow to understand. Ignorance, prejudice, and fear walk hand in hand. |
| Topic | Trump Trials General Part 17: Trump Won't Be Around for Long |
| Goldenguy 04/28/24 9:18:48 AM #94 | Late-isg to the party but I'd also like one of them invites should this place end up going belly up. Probably be cool to check out anyway!

| Topic | The world of mechanical keyboards is a scary deep rabbit hole |
| Goldenguy 04/26/24 1:09:44 PM #37 | I can't stand keyboards that lack the ten key pad. Beyond that, as long as the keyboard works, I'm game.

| Topic | did you ever calculate the minimum grade required and then aim for it? |
| Goldenguy 04/22/24 9:18:20 AM #10 | I had an introductory history class in college once that the teacher would pull the most obscure info to ask questions about (the brightest students in the class were struggling to achieve high B). Coming into the final, I needed like 94% to get a D-, so I saved my time.
--- Quick to judge, quick to anger, slow to understand. Ignorance, prejudice, and fear walk hand in hand. |
| Topic | How long ago were you last promoted at your current job or a previous job? |
| Goldenguy 04/21/24 11:45:29 AM #15 | I can pretty much bid for a "promotion" any time such a spot opens up. Two did recently but I actually opted not to bid in the name of keeping my job stress reasonably low.

| Topic | Guys tell me about LUE. |
| Goldenguy 04/18/24 5:23:19 PM #14 | I remember it actually being remotely sane in the very early ages. I'm pulling from like 2001-2002 though so my memory could be hazy on it, and it obviously didn't last terribly long like that.

| Topic | Are people ACTUALLY upset that Horny-Posting is banned? |
| Goldenguy 04/18/24 8:40:04 AM #14 | I've never cared. In the few times that I actually checked out some of the topics, I really wasn't impressed anyway

| Topic | When dating, do you tend to end up with a certain ethnicity more than others? |
| Goldenguy 04/17/24 4:59:51 PM #6 | Have only ever dated white girls but I would date outside of race with good opportunity.

| Topic | Gap between Caitlin Clark's WNBA salary and her male counterparts draws outrage |
| Goldenguy 04/17/24 4:59:06 PM #111 | Hopefully with her hitting the WNBA it will drive popularity to where they can afford to pay more. I think there's an incoming impact though, I've seen more than the typical number of friends and associates sharing posts and information about WNBA lately. She may end up being their MJ.

Can i raise him to be a better human I'm not sure if that's even physically possible. I voted no on this topic, but I'd at least think about it if I had any recourse for how he turned out. --- Quick to judge, quick to anger, slow to understand. Ignorance, prejudice, and fear walk hand in hand. |
| Topic | Is being more or less attracted to certain races being racist? |
| Goldenguy 04/09/24 1:13:08 PM #55 | I voted no, because I feel like attraction is more instinctual than the racist stuff people often come up with closer to the surface. One can be friendly with all types while only being attracted to a narrow band of them.

| Topic | What's your darkest secret? |
| Goldenguy 04/09/24 9:24:02 AM #74 | Probably not a super uncommon thing but despite being in her life since she was three weeks old, I don't have the same level of feelings for my [bonus] daughter as I do for my son. I do the best I can for her of course, but it's more morally driven than anything else.

| Topic | is taking just a little peak at the eclipse without glasses really that bad? |
| Goldenguy 04/08/24 10:06:56 AM #15 | Totality is fine, but be aware of how much time you might have there, it is but a fraction of the total eclipse time.
During partial, you're unlikely to be able to discern it with the naked eye since there's still a huge amount of light coming from it. --- Quick to judge, quick to anger, slow to understand. Ignorance, prejudice, and fear walk hand in hand. |
| Topic | Do you mostly sit or stand at your work? |
| Goldenguy 04/08/24 10:05:07 AM #28 | I'm on my feet probably 75% of the time but I'm fairly often in motion too.

| Topic | Please don't travel to see the eclipse. |
| Goldenguy 04/08/24 10:01:18 AM #87 | I wouldn't care as much about a partial eclipse, but totality is a whole 'nother story.

| Topic | Do pushups and planks do anything? |
| Goldenguy 04/08/24 9:59:01 AM #6 | They're far from pointless, and some of the best body weight exercises one can do; that being said, abs are largely a product of body fat, more specifically, the relative dearth thereof.

| Topic | What conspiracy theories have you heard dat might happen during da Eclipse? |
| Goldenguy 04/06/24 9:18:02 AM #28 | The neighborhood nut from my childhood thinks there's some darker meaning behind the general suggestions to have stocked up on your food and whatnot ahead of the eclipse. He then says "they're gonna come knocking on your door for food next!"
Very typical libertarian type who is outwardly "both sides are bad" but also almost straight edge hyper conservative. --- Quick to judge, quick to anger, slow to understand. Ignorance, prejudice, and fear walk hand in hand. |

| Topic | "How many sexual partners have you had in your life?" |
| Goldenguy 04/03/24 12:26:11 PM #122 | I don't worry about body count, only thing that matters is if there's anything relating to the prior body count that's going to affect myself. Hell, so long as she were free of STDs, I'd get down with Riley Reid.

| Goldenguy 03/29/24 1:12:31 PM #13 | I went bronze, I've been making in the high five figures and have some 401k/pension savings and I usually keep five figures in my bank, money I've set aside for my kids also approaching five figures, but I do have a couple thousand in credit card debt (currently interest free) and I have an auto loan.
Do have a home also, I refinanced in 2020 but I plan to pay off by 2040. --- Quick to judge, quick to anger, slow to understand. Ignorance, prejudice, and fear walk hand in hand. |

| Goldenguy 03/29/24 9:11:53 AM #14 | My lower back started having some issues within 30, but I was also a dumbass in regards to weightlifting, so I brought that up on myself. At 39 I've encountered minor pains here and there but nothing truly dreadful.
