ilmucche posted:Isn't staying in a bad situation trying to get your money out exactly what the sunk cost fallacy describes? the fallacy is the idea that you can get already spent costs "back" by spending more. so it depends on how her alleged investment is tangled up with her husband. If it's just an issue of waiting for something to vest or mature, then I don't think it would be a sunk cost fallacy. If it depends on husband actually running the business well, the it's probably the fallacy.

Benagain posted:No one's defending cheaters, I was responding to the thing from like three pages ago? The dude who lived with a woman he hated for 16 years and somehow she thought they were in a relationship and he thought they were just raising their child together and the second the kid hit 18 he divorced her. It always weirds me out that people think that's like, admirable instead of horrifying. If you hate someone don't raise a child with them. if you want to raise your kid(s) and don't want to take the drastic step of getting full custody and cutting off access, you kinda do have to raise them together, in one form or another

AreWeDrunkYet posted:Language evolves, but giving a tour guide or translator poo poo over an edge case that's incorrect outside of that specific context when English isn't their primary language in the first place is a jerk move. It's just a situation that could have been avoided altogether if the language went in the direction of a dedicated set of pronouns instead of repurposing existing ones contextually. dunno about the queen's, but "they" has been used for singulars in US English forever

I do think the freezer beer situation did merit escalation, but i'm not unsympathetic to the plight of the shift working guy. he might be a man-child that thought he was marrying a wife-mom, but it seems as likely to me that his current lifestyle is what is impairing his ability to deal with his own messes. i do think he's gotta stop putting beers in the freezer. seems like this could be solved by mutual apologies for their transgressions and one of those beer mugs you can throw in the freezer to make it really cold.

Fruits of the sea posted:Yeah, I don't see why this has to be a political thing. I was always under the impression that the modern folk medicine is an amalgam of a whole bunch of traditions from different eras and regions. It's as valid as whatever was being practiced before. If there's anything to be upset about, it's that the origins are being left out of history books in some cases which kinda sucks from an anthropological perspective.

i think it's okay to put limits on teens' phone access like that if you as the parent impose the same limits on your usage. if the rationale is that it's good sleep hygiene to not use your screens after a certain time, then there should be no issue with everyone limiting their access for better sleep.

if you give your kids "interesting" names you run the risk of their name being the most remarkable thing about them. that's why my kids have boring-rear end names.

FoolyCharged posted:Yeah, "don't let stuff you can't can't change get to you" is pretty good life advice. It's just that literally everything else around it in that guy's narrative makes me think he's a colossal rear end in a top hat anyway and even a stopped clock. it's the classic mistake of trying to solve someone's problems when they're complaining when you're just supposed to listen and empathize and only offer advice when it's asked for. he's the rear end in a top hat for giving into the narcissistic impulse of offering up an unwanted "solution". just loving listen, fellas.
