I guess I just didn't want to upset her by being pushy so I chose patience instead.
I didn't financially support her and we each had a separate apartment.

Pushing for it is being pushy. Moving on b/c you two have wildly different expectations / timetables is not. What you want matters, too.
The vast, vast majority would say 6 years is crazy, though. Even 1 year is a long time to wait. If she wants that then fine, but most other people won't and it sounds like you didn't, but you were afraid to assert yourself on the matter.
I'm glad you weren't being used financially, at least.

No I just thought that they were so kind to me that they wasted precious work-time just to talk to me and the fact that they were worried about me.

I don't think she'll spread the word around to everyone because she specifically asked for my consent that if she could discuss this with one of our coworkers.

I don't mind because it's always hard for me to talk about these things with others.

Maybe your workplace is super busy and efficient. Every one I've ever been to, there's been plenty of gossip, "water cooler" talk, etc... And if she asked for your consent to tell other people, that sounds at odds w/ your first post:

LeetCheet posted...

She even told that younger woman(which she's best friends with) about it all and she was also angered by it.

Jeez now that really cute woman knows that I was c-blocked for half a decade.

Made it sound like you were surprised and unhappy she told the 2nd person... But whatever.

There's being respectful and being a doormat.

Six years is insane, it wasn't even like you two were "saving it for marriage" since you say it wasn't her first time and you didn't wait till marriage...

Were you providing her a place to live or financially supporting her during any of those six years? Sounds like she was just using you...

You need to start having some standards and not be afraid to value your own needs. If she wasn't willing to sleep w/ you after a while, there's nothing wrong w/ ending things and walking away. You have needs, too.

Also, I'm not sure why you said your "nice" co-workers "did this for me". Did what? Spread embarrassing gossip about your sex life? A lot of women might act disgusting that a nice guy like you could be treated like that. Even wish they could "find a guy like you". But yet....they never just date you. Has to be someone like you, but not you. Almost like it's empty words.

Just value your time and attention more going forward.

LeetCheet posted...

No she has had sex with others before me. She's just really awkward in bed.

And, assuming this wasn't just an excuse to string you along, I'll never understand that kind of reasoning. Ditto for women looking for a long term relationship and want a guy who's experienced.
Like...you're going to be together for the long term. You'll have lots of practice. :) Just have some patience and learn together...

I don't think the government should be doing this at all, but it's China so I guess this is par for the course there.
Even so, 1 hour a day on weekends only is way too strict.
I hope the policy backfires on China as spectacularly as the one child policy did.

I got straight A's and never got in trouble while playing WAY more than 3 hours a week, when I was a kid. If the government came along and restricted my playing time, I'd probably have started getting into trouble just out of spite (gotta do something with that extra spare time...). Hopefully the kids in China are smart enough to understand, too. If their behavior gets WORSE after the change, China will relent. China like to act tough, but if they see the youth falling into delinquency and threatening long term prosperity, they'll cave.

I love how the bus displays blatant misandry w/ a doubled price for men, but the REAL STORY is that one woman was denied entry for not meeting their standards.

I doubt they let in just any dude, either. Despite paying twice as much. If they really were letting in morbidly obese guys in greasy shirts, then I guess the fair thing to do would've been to charge her as if she was a guy. But it explicitly states, separately from the "no big girls" rule, that appearance matters, so I'm guessing they weren't letting in disgusting looking guys.

tbh, the prices were already outrageous 20 years ago.

Yup.

My friends got me into it in the early 2000's. Prices even back then were like $45 for a 5 pack of Assault Troop Space Marines or a tank or something.
I must have spent over $500, probably more...
I didn't even want to play 40K, or Space Marines... I preferred Warhammer Fantasy, but they were all doing 40K, and had the other armies already, so I ended up getting roped into it. Only benefit was they had a bunch of basic bolt rifle SM's that I got from my friends for cheap. But I guess that's the equivalent of a gateway drug, lol

Still got my collection, I should probably try to sell them...

The thing that annoyed me the most was that in official tournaments, they required any options / bonus weapons to be on the model. Obviously I'm not going to constantly rip off and glue stuff to my models to meet points thresholds, so it was just a blatant ploy to get people to buy more models...

I love how they're billing him the $1.26 million he'll probably never be able to repay instead of trying to recoup the money from the porn stars that received it...
If they were illegal transactions, the money should be recoverable, or at least get as much back as they can.
I'm sure it feels good to slap him w/ a big fine, but it doesn't help the victims...

Fear of landing on my head is why I'd probably never try more than a back hand spring. Let alone doing it off a balcony...

Tbf, Vietnam turned out alright in the long run. But to be fair again, not the best comparison, since we never every fully controlled Vietnam, South or otherwise, and thus didn't really have an infrastructure plan to compare it to. Leaving was ultimately what was best for the place.

Vietnam in particular is fascinating, and they didn't talk about it at all in school, and a lot of stuff has a pretty disgusting pro-American bias.
I'd really like to learn more about them, it's frankly incredible how they defeated the French army, then outlasted the U.S. military, and despite all of the agent orange and other devastation we wrought on them, went on to beat back a Chinese army and even invade Cambodia to drive out Pol Pot, then w/ the U.S. sanctioning and trying to isolate them economically every step of the way after decades of warfare, emerged as a modern successful nation.
I genuinely have a ton of admiration and respect for them.

UBI. Just trillions of dollars every year coming out of thin air. That sounds plausible!

Businesses have made record profits over the last several decades while wages have stagnated.
Maybe we should just tax corporate profits adequately and we'd have that money.
Making the taxes at point of sale is key. american consumers spend the most in the world, any logical company wants to sell shit here. So tax them on point of sale. Doesn't matter if their HQ is in Ireland. Get rid of all the loopholes and tax breaks. There should only be tax breaks for employing legal U.S. residents.
Then we create a sliding scale. If people here are fully employed, tax revenue stays level. As automation and off shoring replace U.S. workers, more tax money rolls in to fund UBI.

adjl posted...

It sure is interesting how upset employers are getting when they have to provide competitive wages because there is actually a viable alternative for people to take when they're met with "don't like these wages? You're welcome to look for something that pays better." It's almost like they've been relying on a non-competitive market to get away with providing pitiful wages for decades, while disingenuously suggesting that the workers are at fault for them making that decision.

I agree wages have stagnated, but this isn't true competition. It's boosted unemployment benefits, an artificial "competitor" created by the government. And it's an especially nasty "competitor" because even if they were equal, it's a choice between working or not working. The former has to be significantly higher than the latter to be "worth it".
I'd much rather hike min. wage up and index it to inflation, and work on putting UBI in place.
This unemployment stuff is grossly uneven and unfair across the workforce.

If it wasnt obvious i was just takimg a jab at punks horrible mma record

Yeah, I know. I said they both suck at fighting. That means acknowledging Punk's UFC matches. Wasn't sure if you were aware that HBK in particular is also not sporting a great out of ring fight record...

mooreandrew58 posted...

Hbk is probably a better mma fighter too

HBK was notorious for starting shit at bars and getting his ass handed to him every time.
Dude's lucky social media and the internet wasn't really around back then, he'd have destroyed his own credibility pretty fast.
I really don't know who's a worse fighter between the two, they're both pretty epicly bad. Almost kinda want to see a shoot fight between them now, just for the trainwreck factor.

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]

HBK is a far superior wrestler. Punk is a slightly better talker (pretty overrated, he's got nothing on Rock, Macho Man, etc...).
Both are huge ass holes. Prime HBK probably even more than Punk, new "reformed Christian" HBK probably a bit less so.

Now that Punk's in AEW, I wonder if Colt Cabana forgave him for stiffing him on the legal fees he promised to pay? Pretty crappy thing to do to a friend. Though the AEW roster is so bloated I guess they could work there for a decade together and never be in a match/story together if they still don't like each other.

So, I was reading about the chip shortage, and apparently Taiwan makes like 92% of them for the entire world. Biden's trying to move Mfg. back here, but that will take years. Needless to say since literally everything has a computer in it these days, this is a massive disaster waiting to happen and we did it to our selves by allowing so much off-shoring.

As for the poll question, yes. I think we should defend them. But man is that a dire prospect. Like the above poster said, it'd likely lead to WW3...
Best hope is if we stand firm on it, China backs down since they can "defeat" us economically over time and don't need to risk that w/ a war.

But taking down Osama and his enablers was never the goal of Bush/Cheney or the military industrial complex. It was more like a convenient excuse for their real goals...

How about instead of a lawn you just have an entire copse of trees?

You don't want trees too close to your house. Not only for the risk of collapsing from a lightning strike or something, but also the roots can potentially grow out and disrupt your utility lines or even get to the foundation.
I'm kinda torn on the matter... The lot I'm buying will mean a south facing house, so I kind of want a tree in the front yard to help block out the massive amount of sun beaming in, but I'm not sure the house will be set back from the road enough to leave enough space for one... I think the general rule is to keep them 20+ ft away?

So, as a teetotaler observer to this fucking stupid country's atrocious alcohol addiction from the side lines, I try to keep track of all the conflicting, hypocritical, and stupid standards regarding alcohol consumption:

• Alcohol is legal but weed is not, despite alcohol being vastly more harmful, especially to other people.
• If you act like a complete ass hole while drunk, being drunk is used as an excuse for your behavior.
• Since apparently this dude not only successfully blamed the bar for his actions, but didn't go to jail for assault and battery, alcohol consumption also absolves you of guilt for committing some felonies.
• If you drink and drive you should've known better, but the courts will also give you a slap on the wrist for what's basically attempted manslaughter, so... kind of a mixed message.
• If you're a woman and get drunk and a man sleeps with you, then you are a helpless victim who was sexually assaulted.
• If you're a man and get drunk and a woman sleeps with you, then it's your own dumb fault.
• If both parties are drunk and sleep together, it's the guy's fault.

It's just so fascinating (disgusting) that depending on the crime you commit while drunk, who you commit it against, and whether or not it's a topic that the court system has decided to not give a shit about, you're either 100% responsible for your own choice to get drunk and are a monster OR you're an innocent victim of the demon rum and it'd be cruel to penalize you for what you did while under its influence.

Yeah, I'm adding clover to my list.

Tried googling for a zoysia clover mix, but didn't get much for results...

What's the business model around this? Why would I buy Hades or Zelda SS HD through Best Buy's store and not Nintendo's store.

I take it that it's probably advertising? or getting customers through existing retailers?

I'm sure it made more sense when Gamer's Club Unlocked was still a thing.
Even now, it's possible to have a store credit card or other credit card that gives a higher % cash back for Best Buy purchases than if you by from Nintendo's eshop.
But yeah, I just buy from the actual e-store...

I don't volunteer it without being asked, but yeah I don't care about "hiding" it since I'm fairly moderate so the only ones likely to get really crazy w/ me are the extremists, who I just don't reveal it to...

Been watching Matt Walsh's stuff lately. Disagree w/ him on a lot, but he's right sometimes and at least is pretty entertaining. When he's not covering political news is usually the best.

His self-deprecating yet also condescending towards others type of humor is pretty fun.

I don't have an HOA so I guess I can do whatever I want with it but that requires a lot of labor and effort up front. And I feel obligated to keep it looking okay cause you know how people can bitch about petty stuff (plus resale), but personally if it were up to me I'd more or less just leave that shit be while slowly xeriscaping

I don't understand your concerns...
With no HOA, who cares if people bitch about it, they can't do anything.
And resale value doesn't matter unless you're planning to sell soon. Could always landscape before putting it up for sale years down the road.

There's low maintenance grasses and plants out there, depending on your region. Usually the common downside is they're "creeping" plants so you have to plan the perimeters to keep the roots from spreading to your neighbors, but that's not too hard.

Zoysia grass is pretty cool. Aside from creeping, the main downside is it's brown for half the year. But it grows slow and takes less water.

https://grasspad.com/zoysia-grass-the-good-the-bad-and-the-ugly/

Here's some other groundcovers I've got on my list to consider:

https://www.thespruce.com/vinca-minor-vines-2132217
https://www.thespruce.com/types-of-creeping-thyme-2132329
https://www.thespruce.com/blue-star-creeper-plant-profile-4846530

Obviously what you can use depends on your hardiness zone and needs. You can mix and match, too (like Zoysia grass does poorly under trees or on shade but vinca minor handles it fine, so you can have different sections of ground cover).

HOLE LEE FUCK!

I knew WSJ was financially conservative, but when did it turn into a far-right tabloid level shit show?
Just look at the list of popular/related articles in the right column! There's even one advocating for "herd immunity" among the others acting like it was Biden that chose to leave Afghanistan (spoiler: Simpso--err...Trump did it first!), indendiary headlines like Biden telling Afghanistan to "Drop dead" and more!

Sorry to derail the topic immediately, but seriously WTF happened to that site?

Agreed.

One of the many reason I've been trying to find somewhere to live w/o an HOA (it's a Herculean task, sadly) is b/c I want a steppable groundcover, like a meadow. There are plants that grow to a short height and stop, can handle foot traffic, and often require less watering than grass. Low maintenance? Yes, please!
But most HOAs won't allow that stuff.

Back home, I'd drink water tap water all the time.

When we moved here, I immediately noticed an awful chemical smell and taste to the tap water and wanted a faucet filter. My wife (who doesn't drink tap water) thought I was being ridiculous so I settled for a Brita pitcher for myself.

Fast forward a few days and she's putting ice in her drink, and... I tried my best not to burst out laughing at the instant regret on her face.

It's fine after being filtered, though.

Played it for the first time a few years ago, loved it. Only regret was getting it on PS3. Didn't have the original, so unlike every Dark Arisen copy on PC, PS4, etc... I DID NOT get all those nifty starter items and even worse didn't get the infinite ferry stone. Combine w/ wanting to advance magic attack w/o actually being a Sorcerer (Magick Archer build) meaning I had to keep running back to BBI or Gran Soren when close to a level up, and dear god... I probably wasted at least 20 hours on that.
In hindsight, PC really is the "master race" in this instance. You can mod the original theme back in and mod the stat growth for all of the classes to be whatever you want, and you get the infinite ferry stone. I normally don't PC game, but in this case it's the best option.

I was never a fan of his (or a hater, just...indifferent), but everything I've seen about this fiasco, it seems like he got a really raw deal. Like, even if he was just as bad as Amber (which I'm skeptical of), he still got treated way worse than she has been by the media.

All this proves is what a colossal waste of money and lives this was and that we should've left much sooner.
Every single president from GWB onwards knew this would happen as soon as we withdraw, no matter how long we stayed or what we did, and none of them wanted to be the one left "holding the bag."
The only thing Biden* did wrong was to not fully evacuate the civilians, Afghan allies, etc... and destroy all sensitive info and high tech military hardware (that couldn't be removed) before pulling the troops out.

* The announced time table and general "plan" (or lack thereof) was initiated by Trump last year, btw. So even on that, it's only partly his fault. We've been drawing down troops for a year now.

I mean, are 1-hi knock outs not a thing?

Like in Judo, I would assume it does not matter how many points you accumulated and you are the minimum number of points (1 yuko in judo) away from victory, if your opponent manages to throw you on your back in one motion, you still lost.

Well, that's the really kicker here (heh).
The guy that got knocked out won the match.
I agree, you could be up 10-1 or whatever and then get KO'd, you should lose.
But he was losing on points AND got knocked the fuck out and still wins by DQ b/c apparently it's his opponent's fault that he ducked into a chest kick.

Hamedi's final kick sent Ganjzadeh to the tatami and the Saudi into celebration mode before the mood in the Nippon Budokan arena turned. Medics rushed to Ganjzadeh's side, placing an oxygen mask on the Iranian and removing him on a stretcher.
After a few minutes of discussion among the officials on the sidelines, the referee called the match for Ganjzadeh by disqualifying Hamedi for an unchecked attack, which is not allowed under karate's Olympic rules.
Ganjzadeh returned later for the medal ceremony, walking normally. Both he and Hamedi were expressionless as they stepped up to the podium and collected their medals.

He got hit in the neck apparently, not the head or chest. And yeah, he didn't seem that bad and was back for the podium seemingly fine. But they put him on a stretcher and stuff, probably overreacted. Which is fine for medical care, not fine for judging of a gold medal match...

The Saudi, Hamedi, lost to the Iranian, Sajad, after dominating the match, because he knocked him out. No, not Sajad knocking him out. The Hamedi knocked out Sajad. He got disqualified because he "kicked too hard"! Are you fucking kidding me?! That shouldn't even be a thing, but that aside... Sajad literally leaned into the kick, which looked pretty tame and controlled and actually aimed at the chest.
And while I believe he was at least briefly knocked out, that could've easily been an intentional flop as a gambit since he was losing badly anyway.
What an absolute joke of a competition...
