Ooof :(

JESUS HAYTCH CHRIST. I'm watching TNG with my daughter at the moment. Did you have to do me that dirty?

Still, given modern video compression algorithms it's a solid 93,000,000 hours of video recording at 1GB per hour at decent quality and surely that's only going to get better with time.

Oh. Yes. Yes you are. Look after your back. You only get one.

I'm pretty sure it is. That's my gut. I really fucking hope I'm right.

It has been a long, long ten years.

I was told time would speed up as I aged.

You are incredibly lucky. Like my tap water is fairly great and all but not 4am great. Nom nom nom. Bueno.

Same :D After a few drinks that middle of the night water just hits like an angel crying on my tongue.

There's a classic that Irish rail used to pull out of their bag of shite excuses until they got slagged to death over it:

Leaves on the track.

No joke. C'mon now lads. In fairness though the train service in Dublin and inter-city is pretty reliable and reasonable.

My wife and all my kids are deathly afraid of spiders. I put them all outside and I'm happy that's the example I'm setting.

Spider bro, spider bro, keeping that fly population low.

You can buy unflavoured whey concentrate or isolate in bulk for very cheap. I used to use it to make protein pancakes for breakfast all the time.

Nom nom nom.

Edit: I see you're vegan. Not sure I've seen unflavoured vegan ones.

I suppose that hadn't occurred to me because I live in a country where, if that were to happen, I couldn't imagine the level of social unrest it would cause.

It's just beyond reason.

Parent here. You sound like parent material.

This is stupid as fuck, right, but who doesn't accompany their child into the doctor's office?

Like there are no circumstances under which I'm leaving my child alone with an adult who may examine their genitals and having had child safety training myself just being alone with a child that isn't yours is a terrible idea altogether.

Dream fight. See you in two hours.

Wild! I would love to know what it feels like.

This one is on my phone because I used to fight Muay Thai and sent it to my best friend who fought out of the same gym and we had a good laugh about it.

This is far more likely to be media bias.

Yeah the story of the German girl it happened to around the same time included her talking about a Spanish lad in the cell with her for the same thing.

Not saying it wasn't reported on in Spain but I didn't see his case anywhere in the news.

It did happen to an Irish girl too last month. Fortunately we've fairly decent relations with the US but unfortunately it didn't sound like her treatment was any better than this tbh.

Yep.

I hear you but I feel like the definition of a meme has changed with time and I thought it would add some fun because I have a heap more so my plan was to just post one a day.

I find it so, so funny that he has no idea how much these comments cement the desire to avoid such a thing.

Complete and utter lack of tact resulting in hardened opposition to his desired goal.

It's an analogue of the same subreddit which was spawned on reddit after "momforaminute" became very popular over there. I used to contribute on the dad one on reddit and I'm just a contributor making folks aware of the one here rather than being a mod or anything.

Also, I suppose kids come to different parents for different areas of advice and / or differing relationships with their parents. Certainly that's the case with my own kids.

I also thought about dads asking for advices from other dads, could it be both?

I don't see any reason why not but again I'm not the mod.

edit: I do recall quite a few of the folks asking for help or advice being ones who had grown up without a dad and they felt a certain loss in that regard so were reaching out from that perspective. Also people whose father had died and they used to go to them for advice in a specific area.
