This just reminds me why I buy few things online, never give my real data - put in names like Pissoff and such, pay with those cards that you create digitally, have separate emails for this sort of crap... and join nothing that takes a rent off my account.

Reply to TIFU by breaking up with my GF on valntines by [deleted]
OP, leaving her on Valentine's was a real dick move. You fucked up, and your current feelings are deserved karma.
I'll add how you made sure to add "less attractive", btw. The whole story did not need that qualifier.
What this makes me feel is you haven't found another girl at that level and are feeling it. Its attraction and regret, nothing more, and that girl is well rid of you.
Move on and try not to be as shitty next time.

Good explanation there.
Losing one's fur is also useful to lose heat, which also fits the persistence hunter theory.
Just looking at a few traits isn't going to give the full picture.

OP, you are the total asshole. He can leave his stuff where he likes in his property; you let your cat out and it died.
And you tried to make him the responsible when it was you, in reality.
I were him, I'd have stored the anti-freeze, but I would not feel OBLIGATED for it.
That said, if this tale is true, I have to acknowledge a grudging respect for how you ruined his sanity. If he'd been evil and killed the animal, I'd even consider it justified.
But as it is, you are in the wrong and ruining someone's life over your own fault.
Wonder if somebody ever points him to this thread, if I ever found out something like that had happened to me, that person's home or car might suffer an unfortunate accident.

Without Stalin the USSR had much greater odds of breaking politically as the leadership lost nerve and/or control. He was a pivotal piece in that resistance, despite his MANY other flaws.

Not a relief army. There will be quite some hanger's on and camp followers, of course.

Let's say before he still had some good chances, particularly if he could avoid them until the huge relief army appeared, but once he was caged in the odds shifted brutally.

Just to add: this is not just the EU making rules for rule's sake
Remember europe is TONS older than the US. Plenty of twisty old roads and villages, far less straight, some really constrained routes.
Excessive length means trucks simply couldn't access some areas.

Reply to TIFU My fiance[38m] posting on reddit and getting destroyed made me [28f] realize I’ve been with a psychopath by marriedtoapsychopath
What a shitstorm.
He was an asshole in wanting to hurt his GF, but from my point of view, the GF opened that door. And yes, he was an asshole in the way he did it because he knew exactly what would hurt the most - younger and more beautiful. But it was one time he did that hurt, and he'd been taking it for a while. It adds up.
I don't see psychopathy in this, at all; rather someone who's been hurt by someone whom he loved, who's taken it for quite a while and needed to lash out. He shouldn't hurt someone whom he's supposed to love; but he shouldn't be deliberately hurt by someone that's supposed to love him back.
Can't help but feel he did it right - in her face, and with a woman that would make her alarm bells ring all over and force her to face the consequences.
As for the GF - quite selfish in the way she did it. She wanted her comfort, bills paid, the whole thing, and don't tell me she didn't know he was hurting and she was taking advantage of his willingness to suffer to keep her.
It is also very telling that once she felt *that* pain, she immediately wanted to stop it. So - it was ok for him to be miserable, not her. He was an asshole - but that's what it took for him to get some consideration for his pain.
Frankly, hurting back because one was hurt ranks lower in the asshole scale than hurting someone because one can get away with it.
I hope for that poor baby they get their shit together.

Reply to comment by Roland_Bootykicker in Were muslim armies harder to maintain in the field? by DJacobAP
Excellent point.
Also nomadic turkmen are excellent on horseback - hugely dangerous troops which, even when defeated, are hard to pin down and destroy as they'll just vanish - whereas siege work is trench work, digging, setting up siege engines, going through a breach, fighting at the closest and nastiest quarters.
Exactly the fighting they are not built or armed for, and they usually would be unarmoured or have little of it.

There are many varieties indeed. I like the soft skinned ones that go black, not too big - the big ones not as good - and they're ripe when the skin opens those stripes. Or the small green ones we call "pingo de mel" - "honey drop"
The smell of fig trees in the evening, to me, instantly spells "summer days".

OP, some people become really evil when they drink. That's you. Don't drink, you'll hurt and push away friends and family as you've been doing.
And it can and will affect things permanently.
Drunks get some excuse, but depending on what is said, some things can't be unsaid and even drink won't excuse it - because people will know that that's in your mind, and expect you were just hiding it before and drink just brought it up.
I'm sorry for you. Hope you can control it and rebuild friendships.

Even more important:
Let's say you now want to force John to lend you his bike. He doesn't want to. If you're the one who decides that this person can't use marbles, suddenly you stop him from trading with everyone else.
It is really good to have that power.
The issue occurs if you abuse your power too often, then guys will say "let's skip marbles, how about we also do trade in Sports Cards?"
