I'd add that trying to set up discussion rules on a public internet platform like twitter is akin to telling two rival Russian gangs "make sure you don't use brass knuckles" right before a brawl.

I don't understand why you linked to a guy on twitter in that "don't repeat the joke" section.

Right. Except abortion laws aren't the cause of death, the illegal abortion is. Also, we don't actually have an illegal abortion issue here in the US, if you can show me some numbers that proves we do, I'd love to see them. You'll also need to show me that these people are getting the illegal abortions because of…

Agreed. Complete nonsense. Just a blatant attempt to justify their insane laws and behavior.

Actually, ISIS IS the only one committing such crimes. Nobody is cutting off hands in America and you're trying to draw a connection to that barbaric act to anti abortion legislation. You're doing that because you want to people to think we commit the same kind of moral atrocities which is nonsense. Those people are…

K. Well you're reaching in trying to make pointless comparisons in an attempt to justify chopping people's hands off. Congrats!

"Typical four year old's response when I criticize the Koran"

You think this article in an attempt to distract from local misogyny?

For me and my wife, I think it works best by correcting without sounding condescending. So when it comes to clean things, I would not react well if my wife tried to talk to about cleaning a dish like she would with our 2 year old. I'd react a lot better if she kind of gave me a little shit about it if that makes…

Ya, like I tried to say, this isn't a hard fast rule only a mere, humble opinion. Heck, look up and down this thread and you'll see tons of examples of why my opinion is nowhere near fact. I'm glad you were able to avoid a lifetime of shit.

Gotcha. Well one of the only persons I trust less than reluctant strip club guy is the guy who doesn't drink. But that's because I'm a hedonist with a drinking problem, so that's far more of a reflection of me than it is of you. So basically, what I'm saying is, don't listen to me.

Gotcha. It wasn't a hard rule or anything. Just that sometimes people will delay a break up for the simplicity of not having to live with the person you just broke up with. Others who live on their own, may also delay the break up, but at least they still have their own space to retreat to.

Ya, we're doing great. The living together stuff is the same dance to a different tune. Successful relationships require listening, reacting, forgiving and moving on.

Well, in my experie.... I mean my friend's experience, he likes to dress up like Mario and chase Princess Peach around the house. When he catches her, Mario learns that Peach is far more powerful and his tools of the trade are used against him in a hyper sexual sex pipe dungeon.

Moms are the best.

" You don't need the mail coming to the same address to learn each other's little domestic habits." This is exactly what I was trying to say, very well put.

See. Perfect! That falls into the third category I was kind of talking about. It was tough to describe exactly what I meant and I know I came off as some old school prude, but that wasn't the case. I just meant, if you are a couple knows what they want, knows how to communicate, knows they want to be together for a…

Absolutely. I've only lived with one SO (now wife) and I guess we just had a commitment to getting on each other's level. My clean wasn't her clean when we moved in so I had to change my expectations of what clean is to meet her needs. I had to get better about putting plates away and she had to learn that me…

Right. Ultimately, she pulled the trigger and went through with it. It's tough for me to judge. I think it's partly trying to avoid what she thinks will be the humiliation of calling off a wedding, but if you think that's humiliating (which it isn't) why wouldn't you consider the impending divorce humiliating (it's…

"Sometime during the engagement, she found out he was cheating on her, but went through with the marriage anyway."
