is there a way to collapse the comment tree so only the 1st parent comments are displayed? I spend too much time navigating my way through replies that I don't want to read until I've at least read the best of the ancestral comments. | I find myself scrolling down to read the top or best rated 1st Parent comments.
When there are hundreds of comments, I often miss the 1st Parent comments and have to go back.

Hey Reddit! Let's make the financial system safer by canceling our American Express cards. | First, check this out.
Second, if you happen to have an AmEx card, cancel it and let them know why. You'll be safer for doing that.

Any ideas reddit? | She and I haven't gone on a date in a while due to conflicting schedules and a lack of money.

Dear Reddit, do you even have a daydream like this? | Every time I ride the metro bus, I sit in the back usually, and I have the same daydream (because lets face it, most bus rides are a bore). I always imagine the bus I'm on gets hijacked (like in tv dramas) with two or three guys with guns.

Sexual Control Issues: Anyone else have these issues with their spouse/significant other? How do you handle them? | A little background,...it can be frustrating from a male perspective to be with a girl that doesn't allow you to dominate them occasionally.

Picking up the phone etiquette. | I do enjoy the sheer amount of douchearie it takes to call someone and instead of introducing yourself like a human being, you pick up to be asked a question or even better put on hold. Why or how could this possibly be a proper strategy to engage people? This smacks of picking up a cellphone when you are talking to ... |

What's the best way to approach this situation? | I'm going to try and keep this post concise, otherwise I'll tend to ramble on. A girl whom I've liked for the past 1.5 years or so and I (17, male) both recently revealed to one another that we share the same feelings. The only problem was that she had a long-distance boyfriend. I didn't push the issue, because I didn'... |
Does anyone else think that believers in God(s) and creationism are silly to think their creator is so simple that evolution is not part of his plan? | I don't think we will ever find "the answer". And science will never conflict with my beliefs of God. I don't find it hard to reconcile that religion and science are not at odds but beautiful compliments of each other. God bless, or not. |
How do you sum up human ability with a few numbers? | If you were designing your own table top RPG, what stats (i.e. Int, Str, Dex, etc) would you use to breakdown all of human ability into a nice little package?

I get no vigor or sense any presence there. Because I don't feel that sp... |

So after she left town the next day, we texted back and forth... |

What are good beers for beer floats? | I'm guessing something more malt, than hop, based, and that the alcohol content shouldn't be too high otherwise it will curdle, but what are some tried and true combinations? |
Hey Cookit what flavour combination do you abhor that others adore? | Personally, I have never come across a chocolate/orange recipe that doesn't send shivers down my spine. Everyone else practically salivates when they see a Terry's chocolate orange but I gag at just the thought of it.
Oranges on their own= delicious
Dark chocolate by itself = divine

Ok /r/MR.... Why don't we pick an issue and a state and start harassing the shit out of the State Legislature to get that issue addressed in this year's session. | We bitch and moan a lot; but with 7500 people here, we should be able to convince at least one legislator to introduce some legislation.
We can start by identifying an issue + state..... then in a week or so create another thread identifying the people we need to contact and clearly identifying what we want them to d... |

A movie about a brother and sister who get trapped in a *Leave It To Beaver* type T.V. world, one that starts turning to color once the residents start having sex.

The Hustler (1961) appreciation post | *The Hustler* is easily one of the best movies I've ever seen, and I'm wondering if anyone else is as enthusiastic about it as I am.
