A cool guide Men’s dress codes - Decoded
  • Self respect doesn't make you dress uncomfortably to grab milk, it's respect for others. People now a' days just realize we don't need to be so formal to still treat each other with respect.

    Though honestly, I see plenty of people misbehaving/behaving rudely in public, maybe we should go back to collared shirts? If that keeps people from yelling at cashiers?

  • How long does it take for neurotypical (or just typical) people to get over a minor fight?
  • my husband and I both have ADHD. typically, we fight, I'm over it pretty quickly, he needs until he can sleep to get over it, but I think this is because we usually fight "My way." I need us to talk it out and dissect what's actually the root of the issue (usually past hurt, ongoing pattern, or misunderstanding at the onset of the fight). Once the issue is dissected and we commit to a resolution, or even just commit to acknowledging the issue and working on it, I feel loads better. If our flight is interrupted or he gets his way (ignoring the root cause, taking a short break from each other for a walk) then I'm simmering for ages and not that interested in being friendly again whereas he is back to normal.

    Are you better at arguing? Do you typically "win" the argument? Or do arguments usually go along your ideas of how a fight should be structured? This may have something to do with it.

    I second the above recommendation for the Nonviolent Communication book. It's a short little read / work book and it can get you both using the same language, as well as kind of force you to take responsibility for your own feelings and needs.

  • Price of blood?
  • In my area you get a gift for donating. Usually a T-Shirt, but often a T-Shirt and a movie ticket, or a $10 gift card or once I got an insulated lunch box. The movie ticket era was nice because you could donate blood with your significant other and then go to the movies together, and feel good about donating. A good but weird date every couple of months

  • Anon thinks about Google
  • Yeah pixels are awesome. Call screening is my favorite feature. Someone calls and my robot assistant asks why they're calling, and then I get a real time transcript of who they are and why they're calling and I get to decide whether or not I pick up.

  • which one do you prefer? having kids or no kids? and why??
  • Kids! I thought when I was a kid I wanted them no matter what. In my early twenties I decided I only wanted kids if I could find the right partner. Now I have one. Sometimes my partner is great, sometimes he sucks. I don't care, because my kid is great. She's a joy to be around and gives my life purpose in a way I didn't realize was possible. My whole purpose is just to enjoy reading her a story in that moment. My whole purpose is to feed her when she's hungry. My whole purpose is to look into her eyes. My whole purpose is just to enjoy the moment I'm in, and she accidentally causes me to be fully present so often. It's amazing.

    That said, I would say if you're not 80% sure you want kids, don't. Figure out what would get you to 80% first. Financial stability, a good partner, a solid career field, etc.

  • What popular product do you think is modern day snakeoil?
  • How much is a convection oven? Because my air fryer was $35 and it's amazing. What's the scam here? It's much smaller and available for very cheap. Unless convention ovens are way cheaper than I think? Looks like even the cheap "countertop" ones are a couple hundred bucks. The real ones are 15 hundred easy.

  • yay, no dunning kruger for me! hold up, oh no
  • BuT yOuR pOtEnTiAl!...

    Green region comes with a higher propensity for self "medicating" as well. Honestly makes me feel like less of a failure because I may be useless but at least I'm not an alcoholic?

  • Issue where commenting refreshes post

    Is anyone else having the issue where you're 30 comments deep into a post, you reply to a comment and when you submit it refreshes the whole post making you lose your spot in the comments?

    Is there anything I can do to prevent this?

    I'm on a Google Pixel if that's relevant.
