Try this, is it the sort of thing you're after?

What's a life lesson you learned the hard way that you'd want to share with others to help them avoid the same mistake? in c/asklemmy

Seconded.

I had a mate who didn't speak with his parents, lost his job and left his partner.

Took him in, rent free for 6 months. Got him on his feet, he got a new job and 6 months later he left... With my 10 year relationship. And my cat (but to be fair my ex was a vet so it made sense that she took him)

I thought he was a friend.

There's a photo of me when I'm about 3 playing Sonic on the Megadrive when it came out.. I don't recall games before that

A Different Way of Measuring Time: Metric Time in c/[email protected]

[–] AceSLive 5 points 4 months ago (3 children)

I don't understand how its any easier than using 100 and dividing...

1/2 an hour is 30 min 1/2 an hour if metric used 100 is 50 min

1/4 an hour is 15 min 1/4 an hour metric is 25 min

Any lower than that and they both get tricky..

1/8 an hour is 7.5 min 1/8 an hour metric is 12.5 min

Getting used to metric time would be an impossible thing to implement worldwide I reckon, but I struggle to understand how its any less simple than the 60 min hour we have and the 24 hour day...

I wish I had the ability to be more concise. You said exactly what I needed to say but didn't ramble like I did. Beautifully worded.

I don't get this... Its weird to me that people would propose without knowing their SO would say yes..

With my wife, we'd both spoken about it and knew we wanted to get married one day. The proposal was more a formality than anything.. It feels like an odd thing to be surprised with and have to give an immediate answer on...

I work disability support..

I find the nature of ADHD can really help some people with other mental health issues as I tend to think about all the things, all possibilities etc and my guys are well looked after because of this

Have you been stolen from? in c/[email protected]

[–] AceSLive 4 points 4 months ago

People broke into our house while we were upstairs with our 1 week old baby, at 1am. They took our keys and our car. We have 4 kids. No way to get them to school or me to work.

Turned out they were aged between 15 and 17 and got a slap on the wrist. We got an insurance payout and a different car.

Ridiculous.
