    Hum, 75-100k for a finance something isn't a lot I think. I mean, I know this is a joke but that sounds wrong.

    On a side note, I'd love to talk about with him about all the points under "topic to avoid"!

    Depends on what in "finance" and where. Assuming not sales or trading the salaries come down quite a bit depending on job level.

    I see you also like to poke the bear lol. Seriously with me no topic is off limit I'll challenge every opinion someone has doesn't mean I disagree with it.

    Also Boston Celtics are no? Because Boston is racist AF?

    Arguing for the sole purpose of arguing. Are you an engineer by any chance 😅

    I don't even know what kind of sport the Celtics are a team of. Doesn't mean I could not at least listen.

    Looks like these three have held on.

Chandra Wilson, and James Pickens Jr. have been in 448 episodes from 2005–present

    Can't really blame them.

    Plus for Pompeo, being the titular character means job security for a lot more than just her.

    Oh man this is years ago but my ex used to watch it (may still no idea) and when that plotline with Katherine hegl and her ghost husband was happening I remember lifting my head from my laptop and going "wait what?!" And then laughing my ass off.

    Then you might have missed the show’s most unhinged moment where a gun hidden in a woman’s vaginal cavity goes off and shoots a patient.

    This has got to be at least a few years out of date. Kanye is on the avoid list, and he’s not really relevant lately. And that income in the finance field isn’t going to impress gold diggers. FNAF is a bit dated at this point too, isn’t it?

    I kind of love that Kanye had that breakdown where he released the Heil Hitler track and went to twitter posting all caps shit saying he was a nazi, and the internet's collective reaction seems to have just kind of rolled their eyes and move on. Just pure apathy. It's not shocking or contreversial, more "Yeah, we all figured that out ages ago. Fuck off."

    My college aged students are still pretty big on FNAF so probably not dated. Ye would be a terrible conversation starter by today's standards, though, even more so than whenever this was made, lol. "So, how to you feel about Nazi sympathisers?"

    Midwest here.

    a tornado once broke into my house and raped my cat. this is why when I see one of those sumbitches I shoot at it.

    the only good tornado is a dead tornado.

    YES:

    • You're basically a centrist!
    • Both sides make some really good points.
    • Possible ice-breaker: "Have you noticed how nobody wants to work anymore?"
    • Possible ice-breaker: "Have you noticed we can't joke about anything anymore?"

    I assumed this was a cheat sheet with the dating profile of someone they were meeting from online dating, but judging by the comments i misinterpreted. Why would someone need a cheat shret with their own name and not know what their own job is?

    My interpretation is that they're bad at smalltalk and will forget basic facts about themselves. It would fit in with them needing a list of smalltalk topics to choose/avoid...

    Why do people care about incomes and jobs when they date? What do you care how much money i make, you ain’t getting any of it. My job is my way of making money and in no way reflects my personality in any way, so I don’t even like talking about work and capitalism on a date.

    Many people don't want to date someone destitute or with poor financial prospects. That's just going to be hardship, and there are many other people that are probably just as good a fit without that problem.

    Similarly, someone who makes way more money than you can add tension. They might be like "oh let's go out for dinner!" to someplace expensive, and you don't have the budget for it. Are they going to pay for it? Are they going to resent that? Are they going to pressure you into paying? Their expectations and standards may not align.

    Also, if the relationship is going to be long term most people assume there will be some merging of finances.

    Some jobs are also just gross. I wouldn't date someone who worked at Facebook. I wouldn't date someone who worked for Fox News. Your job 100% can reflect your values and personality.

    Some people wanna live good lives, there is no other way of saying this! Is it unabashed to openly have this in your list of criteria? It is

    One of the very few, but strong reasons I don’t have long term relationships with woman! I would recommend for you to look up femboys OwO

  • It’s fine for long term but I see it even in people who advertise they’re only looking for casual, and to be fair it only seems to be an issue if you’re a man. If a woman is a dog groomer making minimum wage, she’ll look down at a guy making slightly more. Tbf I’ve only dated women and not in a while, but I always found that society cares more about a man’s pay when it comes to dating

    Yeah, not being a kid and knowing enough about Five Nights at Freddy's is a major red flag, good that he recognises that (but still bad that he even has to in the first place).
