riywh | Goodguyscumbag | 1,333,007,967,000 | I'm on disability for paranoid schizophrenia. I've realized it's time to give up my dream to become a pilot, as even if I do get it together, the FAA will never give me a medical waiver for this.
Basically I can't have a boss or coworkers, or have to learn anything too complex.
The coworker thing has drove me insaine a couple of times. If people are making me paranoid I like to be able to avoid them.
I've been doing mechanical turk, but there's gotta be a better way to make money than the $4 an hour I get from that.
I was thinking I could make something and sell it, but there ain't a whole lot I'm good with besides animals and breeding is never profitable. | AskReddit | jewish |

rio43 | GillyRoze | 1,332,990,293,000 | Thanks for the advice. It is early morning here. 6am. They we there all night and all of yesterday. Theyre still alive. I dont know if there is a mother around. I checked up on them four times now and never saw a mother around. They may be starving, I dont know. here is a link to pics http://imgur.com/a/A6HQI
Do mothers normally sleep/spend the night next to the babies? If so, then I think these are abandoned.
Update: I went again to check up on them. Mother was nowhere to be seen. Also, the way they are neatly placed in a box makes me suspect someone chucked them there. I took them in. They are now warm with a blanket and what-not. I also fed them warm milk through a visine droplet. I will have to find them a shelter or something as I work and dont have time to feed them the 12 times they need to survive.
Update #2 They ate. They're all squealing and I take this as a good sign. About to feed them again now because I spoke with someone and they mentioned that they were most definitely abandoned, since they were in a box and hidden in the bushes. This means they havent eaten in 2 days. More pics: http://imgur.com/a/GaIV9 I am considering accepting paypal donations at Gillyroze@paypal.com to help raise them comfortably. I am on a job assignment in Israel and there aren't any no kill cat shelters here. They have a big enough problem with cats already. Thoughts? | AskReddit | jewish |

rlkfm | oldspice75 | 1,333,145,239,000 | For instance, I think that the Neanderthals were hunted to extinction by humans because of the fact that their brains were larger than ours. There is ample archeological evidence for cannibalism by early humans and hominids, and cannibals are said to consider the brain a great delicacy. Early humans must have targeted the Neanderthals for their large brains. I am sure that it's only a matter of time before science confirms to my views on this subject.

rl89b | DevilsmeadReturned | 1,333,130,755,000 | I love history, I see it as a never ending story, full of drama, wars, love, really the its best story out there. My personal favorite part of history is American history. I been told by people American history is dull, recent, and its better to study the Greeks, Romans, Persians, really anyone but America. To say the least I dont listen, and brush them off my shoulder, why force my self to study something I dont want to? The part I love, just down right love American history is since its recent it plays more of roll in my life. Besides for it being more relevant to my life, its fascinating the way this country was set up. It is a very Roman government, with allot of tweaks mind you, still its very Roman. Im not surprised its this way, for the "classics or history" were highly studied in european culture and it only makes sense that if you want to make a country strong with potential of becoming a world power, you would base alot of the structures off an empire that lasted into the dark ages. There are so many reasons why I love american history I could right a book, but I would like to get some insight into other peoples views. Hopefully I will be able broaden my horizons with others opinions and beliefs. | AskReddit | jewish |

rl4ry | misterraider | 1,333,126,540,000 | I'm a fairly well built guy. I'm six foot, fourteen stone, twenty-one years of age, and probably at the peak of my physical fitness. This guy is over sixty, five-six, and slightly over weight. I could take him easily, and it took a lot of constraint not to do this today.
Every time anyone on our road comes or goes, he catches them, and tells the most boring fucking stories imaginable. These aren't the endearing stories of an eccentric old man. These are stories about the time he couldn't find a fucking thermostat two years ago and he get to go to a different shop than the one he normally goes to. I've heard every story in his repertoire at least five times. A man of his age *should*, by all rights and reasonable standards, have at least something interesting to tell about his life. No, it's the gorram weather in San Francisco, or the pigeon nest in his bloody tree, or the time he got the travelers to put grass seed on his lawn and they completed the job without incident.
I have a new neighbour (first time in my life I've ever had a new neighbour), and he just ignores him, he walks straight by, tips his figurative hat in acknowledgment, and keeps walking. I think this is a bit rude, but it gets the job done. I want to take a leaf out of his book, but I'm the sort of person who turns his phone off at the dinner table and doesn't leave until everyone has finished.
Is there any way me and the other neighbours can make a concerted effort to silence this man without offending him? | AskReddit | jewish |

rl0qd | SpecialOpsCynic | 1,333,121,335,000 | According to the national center for health statistics roughly 93% of all blacks murdered between the ages of 19-29 are killed by other blacks. Is it a lack of attention on my part, or is their a concerted effort by prominent African American's in our culture to intentionally stir the pot when statistical analysis clearly suggests that the overwhelming majority of murders are people of a single race killing one another.
I am not denying hate crimes take place, or that they should be punished accordingly. But for every James Byrd Jr, a true victim of ignorant racist assholes, their seems to be a Tawana Brawley or Duke rape case.
BTW, the same report indicated that white murders are committed by other whites roughly 85% of the time so the black numbers are not to much of an anomaly.

rkzpv | statikstasis | 1,333,119,960,000 | Hey Reddit! I'm hoping I can get some advice from some of you out there who have had to have the talk with their sons about sex. My dad was on drugs, came home high on several substances, and got in an argument with his mom. In a drug raged reaction he killed her and is now in jail for life. My mom had separated from him and we were living in another state; I would visit him occasionally during the summer, but was never around him at an age where he had to have the talk with me. Living with my mom I figured out a lot of things by myself and one day embarrassingly began to ask my my mom and aunt a lot of questions while I was hiding on the other side of a wall, peaking around to ask each question about men and women.
I'm now grown with a nine year old son and without having the experience of having this talk with my father, I want to get some advice from others before I engage in this conversation. | AskReddit | jewish |

rkwr4 | manlydishwasher | 1,333,115,913,000 | I recently looked at some statements, that I usually left my wife to administer, since it makes her feel purposeful, etc, fine. However, I am seeing and calculating the amount of service charges, extra fees, maintenance fees, overdraft fees, use of foreign ATM fees, extra fees at the actual ATM, having the account portfolio open fees, interest on line of credit fees, admin fees, forgive me if I forgot other fees.
Oh yea, fees of burning gas to go to your bank, time wasted by being online at your bank,
Now look at your $5K or $10K measly savings, or perhaps a GIC of whatever you have there, look at it's interest, and look at your time maturity date. Right.

rkoln | DevilsmeadReturned | 1,333,097,459,000 | I was wondering why so many math education systems allow students to use calculators? I hardly think Einstein used a graphing calculator everyday. Meaning so the formulas are there, and the average person should be able to learn how to do them by hand. I graduated this past summer and I went to take the ASVAB (i scored very high because I study 5hrs a day everyday for a month) If you have ever taken the ASVAB you would know the math is very simple. The sad part was, since I was so use to using a calculator in high school, I had to learn multiplication and simplistic math equations over again. Im not a stupid person, on the contrary I had a teacher who made us do everything by hand in 10th grade, making me excel in math. I was so good i was able to advance algebra faster then people with calculators. To make a long story short, the next year i was forced to use a calculator for Physics and Calculous. To say the least I dont remember any of it and my math skills went down hill. Why do teachers allow students to use calculators it stunts student growth?

rmzsq | 1001comments | 1,333,235,553,000 | Hi reddit. So I have a newspaper article in front of me all about the Mega Millions jackpot being $540 million dollars. Taking that amount as a lump sum would be $390 million. After the 25% income tax (and no california winnings tax, if the ticket is from here where I live), the sum would be $297.5 million.
The same article says the odds of winning are one in 176 million.
Tickets are $1.
My question: Is is feasible for a big player (a millionaire trader of some sort) to orchestrate a mass-buyout of every single lottery number combination? If he can manage to do it at a cost of less than the jackpot it seems to me that he would be promised a significant return.
Factors to consider: Having to split the buyout with other potential winners. Getting a physical hard-copy of 176,000,000 slips of paper. Buying that many tickets in the span of seven days. Hiring that many people and organizing infrastructure.
Any thoughts?
(edit: Just read the lottery got up to $640 million and was split by 3 winners making this a moot question. Still, anyone up to crunch the numbers and solve it as a thought experiment with me?) | AskReddit | jewish |

rmip0 | zach84 | 1,333,212,007,000 | Acquaintances:
I have a decent amount of acquaintances, people I'm friendly with in school, but I never feel like there is "enough of a connection" to ask them to hang out, and likewise they haven't asked me either. I always tell my self "Next time I talk to X person, I'm going to try to be more friendly and then ask them to chill." or something like that, but then again when I see them, not much really happens, just same as usual.
Friends:
I have very, very few friends and they can almost never hang out due to busy schedules.
Some things that I think affect my ability to make friends is partially that I have ADHD, so on a bad day I can be annoying and it leaves negative impressions. Also I'm pretty quiet since often I either don't know what to say, or I think what I have to say won't be funny/interesting. Also I'm not much of a conversationalist. I often, don't have anything to talk about, or doubt whether what I feel like saying is a smart thing to say. At my lunch table, I'm kind of the quiet one who is just there, although sometimes if I do have something to say I chip in.
If there are subreddits that deal with these types of problems I'd really appreciate them being pointed my direction. | AskReddit | jewish |
rmhfs | zyzzogeton | 1,333,210,031,000 | I am forced to lease a car because my 2004 Subaru Outback lost the transmission and trans axle assembly after a measly 198,000 miles and the repair is worth more than the car.
My wife wants a Honda Pilot, and the only way we can afford the monthlies is if we lease. Any tips on getting the best possible deal? The best so far based on telephone negotiations is around $419/mo no money down, 36 months, 15k miles.
For everyone who is telling me "DON'T FINANCE OR LEASE" or "BUY USED" that presumes that I have a bundle of cash saved up to go out a purchase a car, or that I have the equity a trade-in might bring. Neither of those things are true. I want a lower monthly payment than buying the car would bring, and as everyone points out, it isn't like cars appreciate in value anyway, I am no worse off at the end of the lease than I am right now, though if I put the money I would have spent on the higher monthly away, I might be.
I wanted advice on negotiating a lease, not on why I am such a fucktard for not doing it the way that everyone who listens to financing shows on the radio says to do things. | AskReddit | jewish |

rm80b | GodLike1001 | 1,333,186,087,000 | From the declaration of the rights of citizen and woman from the French revolution of 1791:
>Moreover, I would like a law which would assist widows and young girls deceived by the false promises of a man to whom they were attached; I would like, I say, this law to force an inconstant man to hold to his obligations or at least [to pay] an indemnity equal to his wealth. Again, I would like this law to be rigorous against women, at least those who have the effrontery to have reCourse to a law which they themselves had violated by their misconduct, if proof of that were given.
Is the author talking about divorce?

rm2xx | vistascan | 1,333,172,691,000 | So hear me out. Three years of college life ended yesterday. It was a blast. But now I feel a mixture of three emotions,
1) That I'll never see these people again and never have this amount of fun with this many people. This makes me sad.
2) That I now have to face the real world, and go for a job. I don't know what job I should take. I never got a fix on my ideals, but they involve uncertain futures. I wanted to work with wildlife as a child. But I can't seem to decide what to and if I can do it. This makes me lost.
3) The last one is a dreaded sense of inevitability. I feel regret at the time wasted, at how quickly time is passing, about how I'll gradually become old and feeble and then die. I keep remembering that I haven't become "cool" yet, that I have no great achievements under my belt, and this web of mediocrity and inevitability makes me scared. All I did was read a lot of books.
So I turn to you. Tell me how you went through this phase of your life.

rly6l | warmandfuzzy | 1,333,164,664,000 | I have two:
Story 1:
14 years old (1974-ish) and went to my friend Dick's house. As I was walking up the driveway, Dick was coming out and said "warmandfuzzy, do you want to go for a ride with me in the car?"
I'm like, "Dude, you don't have a license."
Dick says, "It's ok, I know how to drive, I watched my older brother, Mark."
Me: "Hmmm....don't know."
Dick: "Whatever, I'm going. Are you coming or not?"
Me: "................fuck it, ok."
So we go out driving around, just around the subdivision, come back 1/2 hour later.
There's his mom, home early, and breathing fire.
"Dick. Get in the house *right now*."
Turning towards me: "You did this. You put Dick up to this. He never would have done this except you talked him into it. You're rotten and evil and I never want you to come here again."
So I never did.
.
Story 2:
Again, about 14 years old. Went to Dave's house. Went up to door and knocked. Dave's mother answered.
She said, "Look at this" and showed me porno. "This is your fault. My David would never do this. You gave him this stuff. My David would never do this, and I never want you to come back to this house."
Me:"I didn't give that to him. Are you joking?"
Her: "Yes, you did, and I never want you to come back."
So I never did. I didn't give him the porn. I mean, fuck, I'd admit it here on reddit if I did, and consider it a badge of honor. But I didn't.
.
14-years-old. A banner year for me for pissing off moms.

2hya88 | Frandaman760 | 1,412,129,132,000 | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Office_of_Strategic_Influence
The Office of Strategic Influence, or OSI, was a department created by the United States Department of Defense on October 30, 2001, to support the War on Terrorism through psychological operations in targeted countries, which did not include the United States because the Pentagon is barred from PSYOPs in the U.S. Although the closure of the office was announced by Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld soon after its existence became publicly known, later comments by Secretary Rumsfeld imply that the actual operations of the OSI have continued unabated. | AskReddit | jewish |
