    This is beyond true. It’s the mindset you bring to the table op. Don’t try to be something you’re not out something like that but you will have to try to be the version of yourself people want to talk to hang out with and be with. I know it’s not always sustainable but it’s much more important in the beginning.

    You can confirm none of them work? They can work. Sometimes you have to give it time. I met my wife on tinder. The thing is it takes a while. I didn’t meet the love of my life on there after a single day or week. I was on the app for a couple years. It’s hit or miss and takes learning.

    Most of the people I know that complain about not being taught “real life skills” are absolute dumbasses that would have refused to pay attention anyway.

    I had also been told this about something before where the guy had poured water on a flat top grill. As it was boiling off be was like “man this is real life right here, if school taught things like this I’d have paid attention” and I was like they did idiot you just didn’t pay attention that’s literally just water boiling smh lol







  • Got called a piece of shit by my mother and step mother because I didn’t want to bring my newborn to “my” birthday party at a bar 1.5 hours away where people drink and smoke during sick season. They said the most hurtful things they could even think of to me but I guess I’m just supposed to forget about it. I was still going to attend but just leave my baby at home with my wife. The party is actually for a little girl that they kind of adopted but they lumped me in since our birthdays are close. My mom likes to go to that bar because it’s 30 seconds away from their house and she likes to get blackout drunk and gamble on the slot machines. She also usually tries to hit me in the face when she’s drunk. It’s great.

    I’m still going. I feel really bad for the little girl they have and I’m trying to be the better person. I’m just so sick of it.

    Sorry to trauma dump. I don’t really have friends






  • Yeah this is true. The TCL TV I have has an ad for Deadpool when I turn it on. It’s a dumb TV in the sense of it’s not connected to the Internet but it still has these from the brief period of time where it wasn’t during setup. The ROKU tvs are even worse imo it has like weird scrolling banner ads as a TV screensaver. We have a Roku TV as well.

    Honestly fuck all the manufacturers I don’t even want a damn ‘smart’ TV and I’m also pissed at everyone else that enables this by not caring. I guess I helped perpetrate it also but I had no choice I would have bought differently if I could. A lot of people don’t mind having non-stop ads jammed down their throats though even by objects they own. The only time I think my TV should be showing me ads is if it’s literally free.
