    I think this heavily depends. Sex education for a lot of places, especially in rural areas, tends to be fucked up backwards and downright harmful. Last I checked several states have abstinence only sex ed and do things like show kids a bunch of pictures of STDs and leverage scare tatics to deter them from having sex. I think opting out of that shit show and having a candid conversation with your kid about sex is probably the ethical thing to do in those places.


  • Watched a guy hold a butt joint, missed, and shot a nail through his finger. A couple of days later, he was showing his buddy what he did and he nailed a different finger on the same hand during the demonstration. Same guy during the same summer got really drunk and fell down a flight of stairs. I was pretty convinced he was hurt/dead, but he got up, held up his half full beer, chugged it, did a righteous metal scream, and proceeded to fall down the next flight of stairs. Thank god he only had two flights of stairs between him and the ground or he probably would’ve done it until he got all the way to the bottom.

    He still is the most impressively stupid guy I’ve ever met. I think about him frequently.

    My boomer trait is that I frequently type in my password where the username is supposed to go.

    Every time you do this change your password immediately. This is shockingly easy to find in logs and match up to the users. You’d be surprised how often application logs are damn near wide open in a log repo to entire IT departments. Just trying to look out for you OP.



  • By just reading the title I can say that you grew up in hell. Now let me read your description to see if it was normal hell or super hell.

    Edit: So it looks like you grew up in normal hell. Which doesn’t diminish the impact it has on you. I personally grew up in normal hell but had friends that grew up in super hell.

    There’s probably a lot you have yet to process. I still randomly have shit come up two and half decades later and realize how abnormal it was. Also fuck your dad and your brother. Both them are assholes that are probably repressed dipshits. I hope you can get past it and not let it fuck with your life too much.
