Doesn’t come off flat at all, you painted a great picture.
I don’t mean to be a buzz kill or anything but you do have to be careful with little kids lifting. When my 12 year old was about 15 months old he hurt his back trying to lift a medicine ball. It’s not a pretty picture seeing a baby, your baby, reaching back and grabbing his lower back in pain.

I stumbled across the redpill reddit and I am a bit, you know…
After making a few posts on this there subbreddit and venturing to a few other subbreddits, which got me both upvoted and banned, repeatedly, I was invited to a super secret redpill underground lair.
I dont know how to process this.
I call it like I see it, yes, but I cannot be extra hardcore just to please an audience.
On the other hand, I posted something on the Askfeminists subreddit and while the post was received well, the moderators banned me not in spite but because of it.
The thing is, I dont want to be neither.
Not hated, not loved, I just want to put my ideas out there and if they are shitty, I want people to smack them down.
Apparently, I cannot expect that from either side…[/quote]
I don’t understand why so many eforums are ban happy. This is practically the only forum I’ve used since '05 but lots of times I’ll google a topic and end up finding myself on some other forum. What I consistently notice is about one in ten posters are banned. I’ve checked out the post history of some of these banned posters and I never see anything all that egregious.
I wonder if moderators are similar personalities to elementary school teachers, or at least the elementary school teachers I had back in the 70’s, which is to say total control freaks. I think these forums for the most part do just fine at self policing and banning posters isn’t necessary except in rare cases.
I think some posters here have been unjustly terminated and it’s silly and annoying how Push and Coop and others are on delay, but overall, this is the best place I’ve seen to express your thoughts, and express them anyway you want, without having to worry about being censored.

I’ve heard redpill is a cesspool from a wide variety of people(not just your stereotypical white knights or what have you), but I’ve never been much for browsing reddit myself to go see what the fuss is about.[/quote]
jaaaa, it is really, really hated…
The thing is, if you just phrase it a bit differently, they all agree!
Attach “redpill” to it and drama ensues…
That is a just a tad idiotic.

I really wonder what is up with people if they get all anxious because there are like words, on a screen…
Anyhow, I dont have no delay no more…
I iz sad…
My bad boy street cred no longer exists.

Where was the father while this stuff went on? He didn’t intercede at all?[/quote]
No, he didn’t. He usually came in about a half hour after we started. One of the things that the other guy filled me in on was that the son had a real habit of running people out of there. Him and another guy that used to work there would place bets on how long people would last, so I’d assume that the father knows what he does.
The thing is, the other welder/fabricator is retiring in October. The machinist is also taking off later this year, and the father can’t last for ever. The son is going to have a great time as a one man show.

Unless you have deep seated issues, you are probably nothing but a bundle of bad habits.
The good news is, it takes about 3-4 weeks to tackle a bad habit and replace it with a better one.
So, if replace one every month you will do a lot better in one year without too much stress, because once a habit becomes ingrained you are basically cruising on autopilot while still doing the right things.
Also, they accumulate. [/quote]
Very nicely put.

Serves him right.
Nature will find its balance when he goes out of business.[/quote]
Yes. Sad for the father, though, and for you. Although the father tolerates it, so I guess serves him right, too, in a way.
