Aside from Reddit, which we all love and cherish dearly, what other sites do you spend way too much time browsing? | I'd seriously like to know what websites people find themselves going back to over and over again aside from the very, very popular ones (e.g. Facebook, Twitter, CNN/FoxNews). For example, I spend a lot of time reading the apple/android flame wars at the bottom of articles on Engadget (don't judge me). | I spend a lot of time on imdb.com and boxofficemojo.com. I have this weird obsession with movie earnings and production budgets. | AskReddit |
Does anyone else move their tongue according to what their inner monologue is saying? | null | I get SO many weird looks for this at work. Or I start smiling because I have won an argument in my own head. Ech | AskReddit |
Who here has used a fleshlight and has had sex with a real woman? How did it compare? | My normal-sized fleshlight is wayyyy tighter than the 3 girls I've slept with, which leads me to believe they had loose vaginas.
| Flesh light didn't beg for it, and I still haven't been able to knock it up yet. | AskReddit |
girl in my dorm got desk attendant fired for simply asking her out with a compliment. is this right? | null | Yep. If he wants to ask her out when he's not working, fine. But when he did, it was unprofessional. I'm not saying that he was malicious or a bad person (though depending on the "compliment", it might not have been cool at all). However, he probably signed something upon getting hired about appropriate conduct with students while he was at work, and if that conduct code was violated then they have every right to fire him. | AskReddit |
Can paraplegic and/or quadriplegic men still have sexual intercourse? How? | Hey guys,
I am asking that out of genuine curiosity. I have always been sensitive to the well being of disabled people, having worked in events I always made it a priority that everything that I organised was accessible to people in wheelchairs, and that they got to enjoy the shows as much as everyone else.
Unfortunately, this question as always troubled me, and I have always thought that it would be really rude to ask something like that to someone I didn't know extremely well. So, if there are any knowledgeable redditors on the topic, especially if any of you are quadriplegic/paraplegic or have relatives in wheelchairs, I would be really grateful if you could shed some light on the subject! | With their dicks! | AskReddit |
Reddit, what was your "there's no denying it, I'm officially an adult" moment? | While watching a talk show yesterday, I found myself making mental notes of all of the home decor tips. I then caught myself saying "I'll do this, this and this *in my house*" I have never actively wished for a house of my own until that moment. I can't deny it anymore....I'm an adult. Scary.
What was the defining moment for you? | When I graduated high school..since that is the same day I moved out on my own and have been on my own since then. | AskReddit |

Reddit, my English teacher recently asked us to write about what expectations were placed on us based on gender. What is your opinion? | I'm curious to know what others think of this. It really made me think about how society judges us. | I get really tired of being lumped in with the women who give the rest of us a bad name. The ones who can't drive, the ones who are bitchy, the ones who play games, the ones who create drama, etc. | AskReddit |

My Drumline at school (12 guys) is doing No-Fap November! Any suggestions on what we should do instead/how we should celebrate October 31st and December 1st? | null | Maybe by having a massive circlejerk party and save up all the cum from October 31st and drink it on December 1st. | AskReddit |
AMA Request: Bloodninja | Bloodninja is one of the most legendary trolls of all time, and I think it would be cool to hear from him. His chat logs are some of the funniest things on the internet:
http://people.ambrosiasw.com/~andrew/funny/bloodcyber.html
Questions I would like to ask:
* How did you get the idea to start trolling these people so badly?
* Did you think this shit up on the spot, or did you have an idea of how you were going to mess with them?
* Do you mess around with people this much in real life?
* Do you tell people who you are, or is this a hidden part of your life?
* How do you spend your time on the internet nowadays?/ | /r/iama | AskReddit |
How to deflect invasive questions about marriage and babies? | Hi reddit, I'm a 26 year old female who is "seriously" involved with a 30 year old male. We've been together for 3 years and lived together for about half of that. We are very happy but marriage is not a priority/focus for me (seriously, I don't care if we ever get married) and I never want children.
However, I get pretty frequently asked "When are you and Mr. Multi_verses getting married and having kids?" I used to answer honestly (don't care about marriage/never having kids) but after all the lectures on how I'll "change my mind" about having children and the judgey comments about the level of commitment in my relationship, I'm really just over having to have this conversation with near strangers. I've tried saying "that's private" or something similar to indicate that I just don't want to talk about it but people seem to take offense to that too and act all butthurt about how they were just making conversation or whatever. It's really frustrating to me because I don't think any of this is anyone's business and really just want to be left alone.
So I ask you, reddit, how do you deal with invasive questions about your personal life without offending people? Is there something I can respond with to end such a conversation without appearing bitchy or defensive? | Say "I’m sorry, my illness left me barren. Any other personal questions you would like to ask?" | AskReddit |
Reddit, I am a lazy, semi broke college student. What are some of the best, cheap, easy to make meals that I can make at home? | null | Pasta is your god. Worship it. Also look up Uni Student food, the shit is pro. | AskReddit |
What are some good ideas for the wifes birthday? | Hey reddit, Im stuck my wifes birthday is in a few days and I have no ideas for what to do that evening. Whats some ideas reddit has. | Lady speaking: Think of something that she likes, a hobby or interest of hers, and work off of that. It makes the present seem really thoughtful and we love it when you show that you know us. And sometimes an action can be a much better present than something material.
For example, I like nature (especially water) and video games. If my boyfriend took me on a hike to a waterfall and did something like bring out sandwiches arranged into a triforce or something, I don't even know what I would do.
If you want to tell me some of her interests, I can help brainstorm ideas for you. | AskReddit |
Who would be the best celebrity zombie? | null | Whitney Houston..... Too soon? | AskReddit |
Why is r/politics all about bashing Romney? It may make Obama look better in comparison, but it still isn't good justification to vote Obama. | I don't spend time on r/politics, but what makes the front page from this subreddit is usually just anti-Romney sentiments. I don't really have a political affiliation so I'm not attempting to choose sides. and I'm not saying these posts aren't deserving, but none of these make me see Obama in a better light. Just because Obama may be a better candidate than Romney does not mean I think he should be president. If anything, it makes Obama look even worse knowing he is seriously compared to someone who apparently lies and cheats his way into everything.
Food for thought. | Maybe because it's not about casting Obama in any light and just the fact that Romney sucks.
Your food for thought tastes like pickled testicles. | AskReddit |
Reddit, college biddies make me cringe. My teeth grind by the way they talk, act and look. Anybody else hate this? | I call them carrots, super tan with bleach blonde hair.
They talk like in that voice, they wear flipflops and shorts when it's snowing and wonder "oh my gosh it's so slippery?" THEY have the same voice and talk about ughhhhh I've heard countless shit.
Examples:
- my boyfriend thinks he can ride a horse faster than I can learn the guitar! Oh my gosh
- I usually just cross... I thought the car would stop
- he takes pictures of girls he fucks with his jizz on their face, I so wanna be in those pictures.
I just want to slap them back in reality | Two dolla hollas! | AskReddit |
Today I made out with woman only to find that she was trans and stopped because of it. Have you ever had something happened that was complete twist of what you thought it would be and felt bad? | Recently I went over to this person's house to hang out with them and watch a movie. After the movie finished we started making out in there room. About 10 minutes in I started realizing that I wasn't really clicking nor was I turned on, yet I still went with it thinking it'd was just me. At one point the door popped up, so I get up to close it and that's when I noticed she had more of a bulge then I did. As we're laying there I go down and pull out the dick. Afterwards we stopped and I told them that I just couldn't do this anymore. Right now I still feel bad and wish they had just been open with me before all this. | Caught the bus north from Portland, OR to Ft Lewis WA in 1969. Spent a layover in Mary's club downtown. Getting almost to full strip.
Caught the bus south from Ft Lewis, WA to Portland, OR in Nov, 1970. Go to Mary's Club to wait for my brother to come and pick me up. See a naked white woman maybe.
My brother arrives as they are tossing me out. The stripper got down to panties and pasties and then flashed a cock and balls at me. I'd gone over the counter, when he/she said, "you've got a cute mustache." | AskReddit |
Am I a douchebag sexist? | I'm realizing that I have a much harder time remembering the names of women than I do men. I'm a man, and I don't think that I'm especially chauvinistic or sexist, but why do I have this issue? Is this a normal psychological thing or am I just an awful person?
edit: I should note that I have ADD and my short-term memory is shit anyway. | If you have to ask, you probably are. | AskReddit |
Real men of reddit, I need some assistance. Betas need not apply | null | Fucksakes. Not this shit again. | AskReddit |
I'm considering joining the military but I'm unsure which branch I should choose and if I'm making the right decision. Can I get some advice? | I've recently graduated high school and am now attending a university. But I've always had the military at the back of my mind and my heart was never in school. The main reason why I wanted to join was because I didnt want my parents paying for my college since money is tight enough. My mom makes most the money working two jobs as an RN but she doesn't tell me anything about our financial problems because she doesn't want me to worry about them. Also, I have no idea what I want to do with my life and feel like the military could help make me grow up. I'm leaning towards joining the marines. Some things I'm concerned about are the training, how long I'll be in it, when I can attend school again, future job options, and whether I'm making the right decision. Another concern is missing out on college life while I'm young and then coming back and being older than everybody else. I apologize if I'm not being clear enough I was never good at writing. If somebody could direct me to a site where I could learn more about the military that would be awesome. | I've heard that people in the Air Force ~~get slightly better pay and benefits~~ have slightly better quality of life...not sure how true that is. It probably depends on what you want to do.
One thing that's always mentioned is that you can't trust the recruiter that's trying to sign you up. Don't sign anything until you get what you want in writing. Have someone review it and talk to other people that have already been in the military before moving forward.
Maybe try /r/military. A lot of people are using the GI benefits to get through college. I think it's a great idea, but it's also a huge sacrifice. Be sure that you know what you are signing up for. | AskReddit |

What's the best random present a girlfriend could give? | Nice is kind of an understatement. I love this guy like there's no tomorrow. I've been dealing with depression and he's been really wonderful the whole time. I want to do the male equivalent of buying him flowers or taking him on a fancy date or something. Making him food probably isn't a good idea. He's pretty picky with things and doesn't really like chocolate or cakes or cookies or anything. He loves video games, but I don't really know enough about them to get him one he likes/doesn't already have. I'm 20, so I can't buy him alcohol. I could take him somewhere, but he has a car and I do not, so it couldn't really be a surprise of where we are going. Sexual favors are definitely possible, although blowjobs already occur 2-3 times a week, so they aren't really that special and neither of us are into anal. He likes Star Trek, Game of Thrones, Zelda, and other generally nerdy things. I'm pretty good at knitting/crocheting and could make him something, although I also do that on a regular basis.
So if you wanted some sweet gesture from your girlfriend, what would it be? If you wanted to have a perfect night together, what would you do? | Steak and bj. | AskReddit |

I have TOO MANY REMOTE CONTROLS! Is there such a thing as a mini remote control that can ... | Is there such a thing as a mini remote control (something like the Apple remote control) that lets you program a function into each button?
For example -- I have a home theatre receiver remote with a million buttons, but I only use "power", "volume_up", "volume_down", and "input_select" -- if I could program just these functions into a little Apple style remote, I'd be golden.
Similarly, I'd like to do the same for my Sony TV, my Sony Blu-ray player, and so on.
Any ideas? | this is about as simple as i see with an input select button

My father died last Christmas what can I do with his candy bar? | My father was diagnosed with COPD October of 2010. He drank (he was an alcoholic) and smoked until his death. A week before Christmas we called an ambulance because he was suffering he had been in and out of the hospital for 5 years even before he was diagnosed. We didn't know if my father was going to come home and we knew in our hearts that he wasn't going to. He didn't have any presents under the tree yet so I bought him his favorite candy bar and put it on the tree on the off chance he would make It I didn't want him to be without something for Christmas. Christmas day we get the call that he passed away. The first anniversary of his death is coming up and I want to incorporate the candy bar from last year into this years anniversary. Reddit what should I do?
Edit: it's a herseys symphony bar | Make a Christmas ornament out of it. | AskReddit |
Why does this increase range of key-less entry remote? | If you hold your remote for you key-less entry under you chin you get a much larger range.
So my friend started asked me if I had ever heard of this before, and said he wanted to submit it to Myth Busters. I figured I'd ask you guys first and see what explanations you all could come up with.
His theory is your head acts as an antenna but that just sounds a little odd. It also doesn't seem to work on other parts of the body.
I was shocked to see anywhere from a 15%-25% range improvement when walking to my car after work. If I took it off my chin and hit it I was at a range where I got nothing, then put it back and BAM lights flashed to unlock. Was able to repeat multiple times. So what do you think, is my skull boosting the reception? | Maybe the back of your skull is acting as a collector dish and focusing the signal. If you ask me, brain cancer is a small price to pay for the convenience. | AskReddit |
Online Survey Taking? | Has anyone actually found this to be profitable? I'm not trying to knock anyone that does this at all. I'm just in a bit of a hard place financially right now and I'm looking for a way to make some extra cash each month. If anyone has success stories or tips on how to get started. Please let me know, I'm interested to hear what you've got to say for sure! | its tough... i know theres probably 1 or 2 FULLY legit ones, but any of them that use paypal (for example) will have lovely reprocussions from paypal itself...
500$ limit on pulling money out, plus after so long, if you do start making a lot of money, youll need to sign some paperwork for taxes because youll be making too much to be considered "under the table" sort of speak...

Does anyone else stand up to wipe their arse? | We are taught to use the toilet at a very young age. I dont think I was taught that way just done it thou habit, it doesn't seem logical to stand as it only pushes the cheeks together. Am I weird? P.s maybe I should have posted this on a throw away account : | | If your cheeks come together doesn't that spread the mess? Make your life more difficult? What is the benefit? WHY?!?!? | AskReddit |
Do woman always know when they touch you with their breast? | Say at work for instance, I know a lot of the girls there think I'm hot (I am one of those oblivious hot guys.) A lot of times ill get a female co worker coming up behind me or next to me or over my shoulder to help me with an issue, and they get a little too close, often times pushing their chest against me. Is this on accident, or can I read into this as an invitation to try and bang?
Edit - Im basically looking to know if women will use this type of innocent situation as an opportunity to turn a guy on? I know that sometimes they do, but im wondering if more often then not if this is just a situation where she didnt realize how far her chest was coming out.
Do you feel it when it pushes against something? If so, then they must know they are letting it linger.
2nd point - Its not like im getting raging boners when this happens. Im old enough to control my hormones in situations of all kinds. I dont let this ruin my professional integrity either. Im really just curious as to a females p.o.v.
Edit 2 - For the good of man kind (if you are female) can you give us a list of techniques women use to flirt, subtly? | Oh my God. Are you 13? Get off the internet & ask one of your Goddamn friends. Or your dad. Jesus. | AskReddit |

I lack the ability to smell. What are your favorite scents, and can you describe them? | Yeah, so I have never been able to smell anything. On one hand, I can't smell "yucky" things like litter boxes, skunks, and farts. On the other hand, I can't "good" scents like flowers, shampoo, rain, and barbecue / food.
If I must lack one of the five senses, I supposed I would still choose smell... I don't think I'm missing much... But then, everyone I know claims some things to smell just wonderful. I can't really comprehend it. It's like describing color to a blind person, I suppose.
So yeah, what are your favorite scents, and can you describe them? | Freshly cut grass. It makes the tip of my nose itch * in a good way. The scent of the grass overwhelms all smells and can quickly go away as quick as it comes. | AskReddit |
I just found my co-worker on Gonewild. What should I do to mess with them? | And before anybody asks, I'm not looking to extend Doxtober or do anything bad to this person. | Link or it didn't happen. | AskReddit |
My mom follows Fox News like a cult. | so reddit, my mother is one of those over passionate right wing republican conservatives and she worships fox news. No matter how much I argue with her about how journalism is journalism and it will always be biased, she swears to God that Fox is 100% unbiased and always 100% truthful.
I have given her concrete evidence (misleading edits and insinuations) and she still wont realize that Fox News isn't the god of media.
so I just want to ask how I can really prove to her that Fox News is total bullshit. THANKS
TL;DR mother is crazy Fox News supporter; want help disproving her. | First go clean your room. | AskReddit |

Sending a care package to my bf in the military what should I put in it? | He loves Halo, the idea of a zombie apocalypse and pretty much anything super hero related. I want it to be cute and sweet but also awesome and unique any suggestions? | When I was in Iraq, I preferred snacks, like Cheez-its. I also needed hygiene items like soap, shaving cream, razors, etc. You should draw him a picture of some of his favorite things, Halo or anything else for that matter. | AskReddit |
Reddit, what are little things that people do that most other people might not notice but which make you really like someone? | I like someone who simply shows a little interest in my day, even if it's asking how it was.

Planning to try and get off of disability and reenter the workforce (in the US). What are some steps I should take in order to make it work? | Hey, everyone! I'm currently disabled but I want to try to reenter the workforce and see if I can maintain employment. I'm going to take it slow and build up the stamina needed. Also, if it doesn't work, I have a nine month period to tell the Social Security Administration that I am not going to pursue employment so I've got time to see how it goes once I start.
**My biggest issue is the planning. I was hoping you could help me with that.**
My information:
- My disability is actually an amalgam of diseases that make working on a continuous basis hard. I have chronic fatigue syndrome, minor symptoms of fibromyalgia, ADHD, and bipolar disorder/anxiety issues. I had to quit my last job and seek disability because I started having regular panic attacks at work.
* I have a little education beyond high school but never finished a degree because of my health.
I want to do this because:
* My mother is also disabled and I feel I would better be able to care for her if I got a steady job with better pay
* I'll totally admit that even though I have a legitimate problem, I feel like a leech on society
* I've been feeling stronger now that I am medicated so as long as I can maintain the medication flow I think I may be able to at least hold part-time work.
**TL;DR: What are your suggestions on how I should go about doing this? Is there a certain job I should look for? Thank you.** | i wish this was an article ran in Detroit, the only difference is they aren't actually disabled. i applaud you sir for taking such a big step | AskReddit |
From the shower, I whipped the fan switch on with my towel to avoid getting the floor all wet. Reddit, what great things have you done that no one would otherwise know about? | Another would be when combing my hair in the morning, at least once a week I catch the comb on the edge of the counter and send it flipping through the air. Before I realize what has happened the comb is already back in my hand. It's like my arm is a frog's tongue and the comb a fly.

Reddit, can you help me translate these mysterious heiroglyphics? (pictures inside!) | I bought [this nifty little box](http://imgur.com/a/DIIJZ) today at the thrift store. I'm really curious about the symbols on either side of the ankh and on the side of the box. Having no knowledge of heiroglyphs and no luck with heiroglyph alphabets online, I turn to you, AskReddit! What does this stuff say, if anything? | "Drink more ovaltine." It's a crummy advertisement. | AskReddit |
I pee in my bathroom sink because it's cleaner, environmentally friendly and feels awesome. What COMPLETELY REASONABLE things do for which society would shun you if they found out? | To clarify my position:
* I get zero splash-back from the sink, unlike the toilet
* I never miss a single drop, even with major morning wood
* Most of the urine goes directly down the drain, but when I wash my hands, I distribute the water throughout the sink to thoroughly clean it
* I'm able to give the tip of my penis a tiny shower for extra cleanliness
* It feels awesome
I note that for shorter dudes/higher sinks, the bathroom sink may not be an option.

Was Napoleon Bonaparte a good guy? | All the documentaries I've seen on Napoleon portray him as an egotistical, power-hungry tyrant. Didn't he do many good things? He practically wrote the Napoleonic code, which didn't allow privileges based on birth and allowed freedom of religion. It said government jobs should go to the most qualified (which doesn't even always take place in the U.S.). He was also a hero to the French. He united it during a horrid time in history. So let me know if he was a good, moral person or not and why you think so. | It's cliché, but history really is written by the victor. That said, Napoleon was a complex individual like anyone else—he just had a bigger platform to show of all his positive and negative traits than most. | AskReddit |
Mom and I just had a conversation -- don't know how to respond to it... | So, my mom and I were talking... and she was telling me that she was cleaning out my room -- she found sweaters (she's a jew so she starts with the non-suspicious items first), she found stuffed animals, among many other things... then she said "I found your Vodka, and Kahlua in your closet (okay -- not so bad), then she said... "I found a condom under your bed, you told me your boyfriend now was your first -- OBVIOUSLY NOT... WHO WAS IT?"
I really don't want to answer her -- but she's coming to visit on Friday and I know it's going come up in conversation again but I really don't know how to answer it.
Anyone have any helpful tips/suggestions?

What are some things that are different between high school and college? Also just things in general so I don't look like a dumb ass. | I found that the amount of work required to produce the same grades I got in high school went up around 100%. I'm certain that your mileage will vary based on what kind of college you go to. Be open to the idea that "what got you there won't keep you there." | AskReddit |

Is it legally, morally, and ethically right to raise money for a bounty on Joseph Kony? | Thinking about starting a non-profit who's goal is to raise money to bring Joseph Kony to Justice. All donations would be allotted as compensation to the party or parties involved in the apprehension of Joseph Kony. I think the legality is my biggest obstacle but he's already wanted by Interpol so I'm just encouraging very capable people (security contractors) to help out with that. I want to hear ONE solid argument why this cant happen otherwise I'm going to start filling out forms and apply for 501(c)(3) tax exempt status tomorrow. | I'm Joseph Kony and I say no | AskReddit |

I have almost 600 friends on facebook, and after the earthquake I counted 168 statuses about it. This really grinded my gears, because some people state the obvious like that, it's just like why I can't be on facebook during the superbowl anymore.

Les Stroud (Survivorman) asks his audience: "Man vs Wild and its host BG. Do you all think it would be a good time now - for me to once and for all express my opinion and thoughts on this subject matter." What say you, /r/AskReddit? | His facebook post: http://i.imgur.com/sjR3Y.png

Also, what is the official name for those mirror disco balls, if there is one? And which famous person needs to come out already?
| I would absolutely love to see exactly what Les has to say about it all. Personally I feel that MvW actually puts dangerous ideas into people's minds rather than useful information. Sure he may give out small nuggets of actual information occasionally, but MvW is mostly "hey watch me do a bunch of shit that no one should EVER do in a survival situation". He says that he does such dangerous shit to show how you should do it if you are ever in that situation but really it is just him showing how athletic he is. If you try even a fraction of the shit he does, you will never make it out alive. | AskReddit |

What do I do? | So I was talking to my friend via electronics when I go to the bathroom. I come back and she says that she will never be talking to me again. I scroll the the messages and see that while I was gone, my brother typed out a long paragraph about how I'm in love with her. Now, I have been friends with her for years and neither of us (as far as I know) have had feelings for each other. She doesn't believe that it was my brother who typed that and now I have lost a good friend. So Reddit, what do I do? | Learn to lock your computer/laptop/phone when you leave it alone. | AskReddit |
I'm 21, but thanks to my father, hearing disco brings me back to my childhood. What odd/unusual things are nostalgic for you? | Not just disco, but disco especially. I know all the lyrics to a plethora of music from the late 1950's to the late 80's(and beyond, this is all just prior to my birth). He sings his heart out in the car whenever he drives and I often find myself, unconsciously, singing along.

Reddit, honestly, all things considered, are you a bad person? | I got to thinking about this, i'll put my story across. Basically I've known this girl for yrs, she was in the yr below me in college and my mate fancied her, because she was hot. This is then, now we're 21 and yrs have obviously changed every one. I've stayed in contact with this girl, we chatted regularly in large patches but it our relationship veered towards the sexier side of things. Now I never had sex with her because she's in the next town over and as bad as it sounds, i never equated the distance and hassle it would incur afterwards to be worthy of making the trip. We'd often chat dirty but I didn't want to travel all that way because i knew there was nothing to it, it was two young kids messing around but I wasn't up for a relationship but she knows this as she was the same. Fast forward five yrs and we still chat, still in patches of every few days for a couple of months. Anyways, she just keeps getting filthier and filthier while I am plane as day no longer interested. She'll be on webcam while im watching tv playing with herself, no word of a lie but I just really am no longer interested AT ALL (read on for details why). I decided that needed to stop and she just keeps on, sitting with my parents (I finished uni, back home) in the living room and she's telling me to go on cam, saying go upstairs so she can hear herself on my latptop. I'm getting tired of this, because when it isn't this, it's moaning about why or how she just repels boys. Now I am getting quite frustrated with this annoying, immature brat with just her general presence and she's pestering me as to why I/No one wants to have sex with her. So I tell her, I tell her in detail, it was a paragraph. i explained she's hardly slim, she's not obese but she's not slim, I explained (in politer words though this is reddit so fuckit) that dressing like the crazy cat lady's daughter may not appeal to a mass market of guys, and the same goes for the fact she shaved her hair and now dyes the stubble on her head all sorts of 'crazy' colours. She also has crazy piercings. Now I'm not saying that there are guys out there who don't find this look attractive because there are guys out there who actually have this look. But hey, I just feel I dont need to overcompensate with the fact I don't have a personality by having some 'quirk'. I'm saying it's not mass appeal. This crazy bitch posts the whole explanation on facebook and then tags me in it claiming I take pleasure in attacking peoples insecurities. I was thinking, i didn't do it for that, but Fuck me, she's deleted and all, but still, there's gonna be a lot of people out there who are gonna be thinking I'm an absolute scum bag, and who am I to say I'm not!!
Tl;Dr
Crazy online bitch spends yrs in hibernation then drops a Social A-Bomb right on my stupid face.
I'm interested to hear others story or justifications as to why they can be seen as a bad person, I can't be the only one?!

What are African-Americans referred to outside of America? And why is that term considered politically correct despite generations apart from Africa? | I just find this classification strange. | It's a product of the ultra PC atmosphere of the 80's where people were afraid to refer to someone as black.
Today most people just use the word black unless they're still clinging to those sterilized super pc attitudes. | AskReddit |
Do atheists here really believe all Christians deny evolution? | I'm Catholic (the largest and original group of Christians) and we all believe in evolution, the big bang, and all that science stuff. After seeing r/atheism generalizing all sects of Christianity concerns me and I saw on TIL "Catholics believe in evolution" So I'm just wondering if a large portion of atheists really don't understand the theology of most Christians. | At the very least the first to be called Christian were from Antioch, in what is now south eastern Turkey. The Antiochians were the original Christians. | AskReddit |

I was also a huge fan of Pushing Daisies and The 4400. | firefly!

I refuse to use an alarm clock to wake up every morning. Is anyone else able to wake up on their own? If so, why do you refuse to use one? | I'll be honest with everyone; I have a cat that annoys the shit out of me every morning around 8am without fail. But all felines aside I’ve never used an alarm clock to wake up. It just feels more natural to get a good nights sleep and wake up unassisted. | i have two furry alarm clocks with no snooze button | AskReddit |
Reddit, on a given day, would you rather reach orgasm, or have an extremely pleasant dump? | The way I see it, sex can be a regular thing. Taking a great shit, however, isn't as common, and often sets the stage for a wonderful day. If you could choose on a day-by-day basis whether to reach orgasm or have a problem-free, pleasant shit, which do you think you'd choose more often? | I don't need to orgasm everyday, so I rather take an excellent bowel movement. | AskReddit |

In second grade, I accidentally told the teacher that my birthday was September 16th instead of October 16th. Reddit, what are your favorite childhood mishaps? | I was in a french immersion program, and was confused about the names of the months. Being the SAP child that I was, I didn't say anything at the time. September 16th came around, and in this class, when it was your birthday you got to sit at the teacher's chair and eat candy at the end of the day. I awkwardly told the teacher my mistake and we changed the date on the board. I did end up having two birthdays in class though! | I think I was around nine when I decided I wanted to make my mother's birthday cake for her. I didn't want any help, and she certainly wasn't going to turn me loose with her big book of fancy cakes, so she picked out a box cake in a flavor she liked, got down the things on high shelves, turned on the oven and then went to visit with the neighbor lady. About ten minutes later I was knocking on the neighbor's door. I was really embarrassed about needing to ask for help, but I didn't know what else to do. The neighbor lady led me to the kitchen, where they had been drinking coffee, and I asked my mom if there was a larger mixing bowl I was supposed to be using. She furrowed her brow and said, "I thought I gave you the large one."
I answered, "I thought so too, but I can't get all of the water in."
"What?"
"Well, I put in 11 cups, and the bowl is full. There's no room for the rest of it." In reading the instructions, which were to add 1 1/3 cups of water, I somehow missed a 1 and the / and read it as 13 cups of water. It seemed like a lot, but who was I to question Duncan Hines? She and the neighbor had a great laugh and I went home to start over with a new box cake.
tldr; I tried to put 13 cups of water into a cake | AskReddit |
What would it take to eliminate tuition in America? | Many countries, mainly in Europe, have post-secondary education programs where students do not pay tuition. Some are even payed to attend post-secondary institutions. What process would America have to do away with tuition costs for students, not just lower them? | Well... the taxpayers would have to be willing to foot the bill for these students. My concern is twofold. First, I dont want to pay for someone elses kid. I'm responsible for my own kid. Let others be responsible for theirs. Better yet, by the time they go to college, they are basically adults. Let them figure it out for themselves. Second, it would further dilute the value of a college degree. We are already starting to see that in our day and age. | AskReddit |
Hey Reddit, do you realize you are exactly what you rant and rave about? | I love reddit, man do I love reddit! But do most of you computer trolls realize that all this online community is? A COMPLETE CONTRADICTION OF EVERYTHING IT REPRESENTS! Let me start....
A random act of kindness is continuously on the front page,but so is a completely passive aggressive post of any religion. Everyone on reddit dreams of a world of corgi's and kittens running around in a world of peace, but hates a certain group if people?
So I ask you reddit. Why do you take the time of your day to promote hatred to anybody religious? Why can't you just go about your day and not let a slect group of people ruin your view of the world? How is posting meme's and poking fun going to help the world?
YOU ALL CONTRADICT YOUR WARM HEARTS AND TENDERED SPIRITS WITH SUCH A PASSIVE DISGUST! | That's why I unsubscribed from /r/atheism. That place is really the best advertisement religion could ask for. It supports the stereotype of the angry militant atheist. | AskReddit |

Sorry if this is not the right subreddit however. | I assume they have some pre-selected focus group with knobs that can be turned to adjust their current level of agreement/disagreement. That's what I would do. | AskReddit |
I am in love with my gym teacher, help?! | Throwaway here!
It started last year, when he was assigned to be my gym teacher. I think he is so cute. I am only 16 and he is like 32. Anyone else in love with their teacher? I caught him staring at my ass once. I know it's wrong, but any suggestions? | You're still a kid, kid. You'l look back on this one day and chuckle, until then, blush and giggle when you see him. But for the love of god don't get him fired by hitting on him. | AskReddit |
As a Canadian who views American media, I see high school being portrayed very differently than most high school experiences in this country. | Do you feel this is a cultural difference or that film and television is doing an inaccurate job of portraying what high school is actually like? Was your high school experience at all similar? What I am referring to are things like high school cliques, bullying, popularity being so important. Obviously not limited to those things. Weve all seen the movies based on being in high school but I do not relate to them at all. So is it a cultural difference or misrepresentation? | Well for one real high schoolers aren't 20-30 years old. Anyways, maybe I was lucky going to a relatively good (public) school in an affluent area, but I never found physical violence/bullying to be at all prevalent. A lot of american high school tropes seem to be based on how school was decades ago, e.g. nerd/jock/cheerleader cliques, gym shower humiliation, and other things that traumatized previous generations. | AskReddit |

Okay, I'm watching the American Presidential debate and the two candidates are literally saying things that are totally and completely opposite each-other. Someone tell me who is lying. | Romney said, "Under the Obama administration, oil production on federal lands is down (basically)" and Obama responded, "What he just said is simply not true. Our oil production is higher than it was in the past 16 years." How does this happen? | they both are | AskReddit |
How do we make corporate lobbyists pushing agendas through politicians illegal? | I can just hear politicians *cough* Romney pushing coal *cough* saying exactly what they're corporate backers want them to.
