Reddit! What are some simple things you find hard doing?
[–]rogersimon10 306 points 2 months ago
I'm not good with hugs, really. Unless someone's moving away I usually find it a bit over dramatic and awkward, especially when someone's hugging several people on their way out. My cousin did this the other night and there were about a dozen people in the room, so everyone basically had to form a little hug line as she was leaving. I just gave her a quick handshake instead. After everyone left, my dad asked me why I didn't give my cousin a hug, and then he beat the #### out of me with a set of jumper cables. I guess I should have hugged her, but I really think it's a bit too much for simply leaving a dinner party.
Parents of Reddit, what's something that your kid has done that you pretended to be angry about but secretly impressed or amused you?

I live with my dad and my 9 year old daughter. I sometimes go to the gym at night and tell my daughter to brush her teeth while I'm gone. When I get back she shows me a video on our tablet of her brushing her teeth as proof. A few days ago I realized that her hairstyle was slightly different in the video, and I figured out that she had simply prerecorded herself brushing her teeth in several different outfits. While I was fairly impressed at this, I kept a straight face and explained to her that when I was a kid, grandpa would beat me savagely with a set of jumper cables whenever I didn't brush my teeth. Since then she's been brushing several times a day on her own.

This. I came here looking for pistachio nuts and sure enough I see it as the top comment. Oh man, my dad beat the #### out of me once with a set of jumper cables because I went though a 32oz bag of pistachio nuts in one sitting. They're so addictive!
Men of Reddit, when and why did you last cry?

When I was 16 we went camping at Big Bear Lake: me, my dad, my brother, and my dog Oscar. Oscar was a great little dog. We had to stop off at a sporting goods store to buy bait, and my dad and brother went in while I stayed outside to watch Oscar. While they were inside an old man with a beard walked over to me and started talking about how great a dog Oscar was. He started petting him a lot and then took Oscar's leash off and picked him up, hugging him and laughing while Oscar licked his face. Suddenly he turned around and carried Oscar to his truck, then tossed him inside and drove off. I was stunned in disbelief, and I deeply regret not confronting him. When my dad came back outside the first thing he said was "where's Oscar?" and I told him about the old guy. We drove around for the next 4 hours looking for the truck and talking to various park rangers but we never found him. When we got back to the campgrounds my dad lost his temper and beat me mercilessly with a set of jumper cables. The car ride back was completely silent until my dad uttered "I bet that old man ate Oscar. Lotta homeless around these parts." My dad didn't see it, but I shed a few tears.
What's something that hasn't changed in design much since it was first invented?

Jumper cables. My dad used to beat me with them as far back as the late 80s, and although I've never owned a set I can see that they're pretty much exactly the same in design. Still hurt like hell too.
What is your best "..and so we never did that again" story?

We had a pool in the back yard growing up so I often had friends over swimming. I kept asking my friends if they thought I could jump into the pool from the roof, it seemed clearly doable. One day I climbed up there and did it. I landed dead center in the deep end, and when I got out all my friends were blown away. Then my dad came rushing out with a set of jumper cables and beat the living #### out of me in front of all my friends. And then he told all my friends to get off his property.

The all nude ones here are BYOB. When I was in college we would get a group together and show up at the Show Palace around 7pm with a keg. That always ended up well.
Spending less than $200 at a script club is really quite good. You should be proud of yourself. And bat#### crazy girl is always the way to go.

I had Cal in the car yesterday bumming around (that's what my Dad always called it) and coincidentally the topic of the radio show we were listening too were was ADHD. The host said he was on a website where 90% of the people said ADHD wasn't real, it was just a product of bad parenting. I look at Cal, probably like this 
and say what do you think about that? He looks at me, shakes his head, and replies "those poor misguided people".

Next week, vacation. God, I need this.
Course, it's vacation with 5 kids, a wife I can't sleep with, her sister's family (including two MORE kids), my MIL (who has lived with us for over a month) and my FIL. Crowded House ain't just an underrated 80s band, folks.
But, it's a vacation and I could use some time away from home remodeling, hospitals, landscaping, furniture shopping and a stock market that is damned determined to kill me. 4 days in Sunriver (Tanner - hey). I brought up buying a small keg last night and it was actually well received, so I've got that going for me, which is nice.
ETA: Will FBG ever fix the wonky issue of paragraph breaks not showing up after you hit "post", even though they are clearly there when you're typing?

53 beers divided by 3 beer drinkers = 17ish beers per person. Figure 3 days of drinking, that's....6 beers per day. Hmmmmmmmmm, that's like Mr. Roboto territory.Abraham said:
