Why are people itt so triggered and threatened by the possibility of a healthy open marriage?

And before anyone says "because it's impossible", some quick googling will make it clear that's not the case. Hell, the happy people in the open marriages among my friends tell me it's not the case.


A lot of people here have a very closed mind and refuse to acknowledge other people's perspectives.

It's weird how outright offended and angry people get over this though.


Studies show open marriages dont end well.

Either because the woman gets jealous or feels abandoned or the guy cant get over the fact that getting a one night stand as a guy isnt as easy as it is for a woman.

We dont want TC to come 6 months later wallowing in self pity because his wife left him or got tired of an open relationship.

Dude, the old saying is for every piece of strange out there you would die for some dude is tired of it.

I'm with you though. Our sex life isnt where I'd like it, but when we get it on my wife will put lingerie on and thigh high boots.

And with my schedule I just dont have patience or time to look for something that wont probably be as good.

Isnt the purpose of these open relationships to just have lustful pleasure and flings? I thought the emotional aspect was to remain with your wife.

Your "first" date ended in a hug and you're pursuing more dates.

Seems like this has potential to lead to something you didnt expect.

What happens if you develop a strong emotional bond with this girl?

Lots of home sellers are really good at hiding problems with houses and lot of inspectors are morons. If you live in America and are buying a pre 1980s house your walking into a lot of possble toxic and terrible things (such as asbestos, lead paint, aluminum wiring, etc)

Hell, even modern homes are probably full of terrible stuff killing us but we just don't' know yet.


In the state of California, they have these signs on the new buildings that say that chemicals in this building are known to cause cancer or some shit.

I have the stuff in my floor tiles and have dealt with it in the past.
Forget Home Depot for the removal. All you need is a vacuum, floor scrapper and a good breathing mask. Wear long sleeves and pants.
The asbestos fibers in the tile are within it. Pressed in the glue of the tile itself. It will not become airborne through the simple act of removing it. You would have to grind the titles up and have the particles go airborne for it to have any chance of being dangerous.
A floor scrapper is $20 at Lowes. Looks like a large spatula on a metal handle the size of a shovel. Scrape up all the tiles and put them in large trash bags. Thrown them a couple at a time in your regular street trash bin. After those are gone run the vacuum on the subfloor. Use the attachments to get in the cracks. That's it. Wipe down the walls or counters if it's the kitchen. From there check the sub floor. If it's damaged then work on replacing it with 5/8 OSB board. The old wood will not have any asbestos in it or on it. Then have Home Depot put in the rug.

He said that if he remove the carpet from the area, he can tell if the tile is still safe and intact.

If the tile is safe, then you can probably get away with laying an underlayment down over the old tile and installing the vinyl directly over it since it should be tongue and groove click tile anyway.

That's correct in that undisturbed absestos is fine however ripping up the carpet may disturb the underlay and cause it to become friable.

A lot of old dust will become disturbed during carpet removal, so get the underlay tested first.

Theoretically you can lay new carpet over old but it's not a good idea to do so.


This particular carpet has to go. Soiled by a puppy.

We're switching to Lifeproof Vinyl, which can be put on top of tile. We just need to be able to get the carpet out.

If I want to get the underlay tested, would they come pull the sample themselves?


No.

You need to hire a company to take a sample and test it. If it is asbestos you need to do an abatement which is a process where they literally quarantine the area where it's to be removed, set up ventilation tents and high grade fans to remove the dust and asbestos and take it away to be properly disposed of.

Yeah, it's not cheap depending on how many square feet you have.

Also nobody has actually explained why it is bad that *only* 250 million was used, or even why if *only* 150 million went to "actual" development.

Are you seriously implying that all of the profits of a game should be funneled back into development? And if so, how would that even be possible? Why should someone spend billions on a game if it only actually costs 150 million to make?


Thats usually how companies continue to make more money, by reinvesting into other projects and ideas.

But If you can sell fake currency and make 100s of millions, why waste money on projects when whales keep throwing money at you on a game you released over 5 years ago and made back your money about 100 times over.

Yes, a real world expense when you want to make 500+ million with your property.

I swear, you guys just find reasons to bitch at this point. As if you are entitled to more for less just because they make more money than you like.


Having to spend 500m and half of that be marketing for a GTA game just sounds like frivolous and careless spending.

It's not imperative to the actual development of the game and including it in the total number is being disingenuous.

Also, you're forgetting that all of Rockstars studios work together to develop single titles now which could easily raise the production cost, unless Rockstar had a recent mass layoff or something I didn't hear about.


In today's age of lightning fast internet, video conferencing and web conferencing the "cost" of outsourcing different parts of the game arent as high as you would think.

People can do all the work remotely.

It's actually more efficient using more of your assets and man power instead of isolating the project to a handful of people.

And the argument wasnt that they should pump their profits back into the company. The argument was that they can just sit back and shark card their way to 500m in a year.

I agree with the sentiments about people overly publicizing their kids.

Its mainly women I see this from, one example being a girl having a monthly birthday cake and party for her daughter who was born out of wedlock.

And this is coming from someone who has a 4 month old.

The only people who see pictures are my immediate family who I send them to privately.

What? Lmao.


GTA V cost 250 million to make, so I don't really understand why people think Red Dead Redemption 2 isn't going to cost at least that much, if not double due to marketing.


I saw you originally said 500m.

Anyway, 250m with development and marketing.

Take away marketing and it probably cost under 200m. Well under 500m. So I dont think RDR2 is going to touch 500m development costs.

And even if gta 5 did cost 500m, the ridiculous money they made on shark cards made up for that and then some.

eg. rockstar's shitty shark cards which only resulted in one (as of yet unreleased)game in more than 5 years.


I mean...the game is probably going to end up costing them at least 500 million to make so...


What? Lmao.

If companies release full free games and charge only for cosmetics I can kind of understand.

But man, this is some shit.

I'm replaying new game +.
It's a fantastic game. One of the best I've ever played.

My only knock is the lack of boss variety.

Other than that 9/10.

I'm picking mine up tomorrow. I have a Note 8, but I got a super amazing deal on the Note 9 that it was too good to pass up.

Same for me.

Best Buy basically offered a buy 1 get 1 free deal. And they also came with some fancy $300 headphones with each phone as a preorder bonus.

So basically I got $1600 worth of stuff for free between 2 headphones and a phone.


How much did you owe on your note?
