New to Sacramento. Where is a good place to meet interesting, cultured, well rounded people? by newtosacin Sacramento

[–]Floonet 0 points1 point ago

"This wolf-pack hijinks internet thread is like little shit balls that roll right off my shoulder. "

Proceeds with incredibly long winded rant and tirade of insults.

Also the correct term is not rolls of shoulders. The correct term is to roll off ones back.

Share your Sacramento related job frustrations (and a subtle push for r/SacJobs) by zerodayattackin Sacramento

[–]Floonet 0 points1 point ago

This is where counselors fail. They need to tell you you NEED an internship to really get experience. I worked all throw college and interned the last two years of college. Sadly in science they usually want 5+ years experience (I had 2 after graduating) but something you can do is use your alumni network. Also check out Americorps it's a great program and you get a lot of great experience.

Looks like a lot of you are complaining about lack of employment, or how hard it is to find a job. IAMA Recruiter. AMAA. by Techruiterin Sacramento

Volunteer as a docent at a museum. 'the arts' is very broad but also build up an online portfolio.

[–]Floonet 0 points1 point ago

Just an idea. Your lack of employment experience is hurting you. Try applying for jobs like bagger at a grocery store, busser at a restaurant, retail store at the mall or a fast food place. Also after applying, go back after a week or so and ask about the status of your application. If you're applying online for jobs you are probably applying for jobs that are a little over your experience level and remember the pool of applicants will be much larger online. Your best bet is to walk in and apply.

Worried about the effects of an objectively mean/terrified rat which makes no change (except for the worst) on a wonderful, relatively quickly adjusting rat... (first time owner...) by ADD_Booknerdin RATS

[–]Floonet 1 point2 points ago

It would be nice to know how long you've had them but my advice is don't handle a rat that doesn't want to be handled. I've owned some rats that are very social and so that aren't. I doubt the skidding rat is having an effect on the friendlier one. You said it yourself, she is developing wonderfully.

"As Seen on TV" products are notorious for being worthless, but what are some that have actually worked well for you? by UndercoverKoalain AskReddit

I always threaten my enemies that I will mix the ped egg shavings in their food. I'm a mediocre villain.

Evolution of Comedy Tour coming to Sacramento! by sifumokungin Sacramento

It's an Alt-weekly much like The Guardian. I believe it might be too late since they go to press on Monday nights. But you can try.

Have a serious girlfriend, want to ask her to marry me but have a couple issues. Are they dealbreakers? by thankyouverymuch57in relationship_advice

[–]Floonet 3 points4 points ago

Ultimately it's always how you feel but I will give you advice like I'd give a close friend.

  1. Wait another year. An 8 month long relationship is NO way to gauge a relationship. You're in the honeymoon phase at this point and most people are head over heels with someone and it's all going perfect.

  2. Write out what you value and keep in mind the order of importance. Whether you want children or not usually ranks #1. So equating kids with having a nice house (nearly everyone wants a nice house and to travel btw) doesn't exactly match up.

  3. Your sexual incompatibility will weigh on you in a few months. Everyone has their kinks and they should! But being with someone who just isn't into whatever you're into is a BUMMER! I've dated people who I got along great with in life but in the bedroom it was dull or awkward. Give it time, maybe you'll adjust, but it seems to me from your post you do not enjoy degrading her in bed and that's what she likes.

  4. You didn't list your age, but you seem young. Why the rush? Don't put pressure on yourself to get things figured out. You have time, you don't need to marry her now. It's possible you will both come to a happy medium, and it's possible you won't. What I can say from personal experience is at 8 months in every long term relationship I've had, I've been in love... I've thought maybe this is the one. Only to realize a few months-year later they really really weren't right for me. Please date for at least 2 years before pondering marriage.

And to add, why wouldn't her mom approve of you? You seem like a nice guy.

Look how much Mitchum deodorant is trying to scam. I bought a couple new and they're all less than half full. by lucubratiousin Frugal

[–]Floonet 0 points1 point ago

Mitchum has aluminum in it anyway. Which although there hasn't been extensive testing, some tests have concluded a link to cancer. Stick with a natural salt deodorant. They last forever and are 3-5 dollars.

Hey Reddit, what's something you would do, if you knew you couldn't/wouldn't get caught? by kdubsdubsin AskReddit

[–]Floonet 0 points1 point ago

Can I just say YES the judge is awful BUT your mom could always have willingly offered up more time, like my mon did. My dad was awarded Wednesdays after school and Saturdays. After awhile my mon realized how fucked up that was and that I missed my dad so he got to pick me up after school every other day and I'd even spend the nights sometimes and I also got every other weekend with him. I also was able to talk to him on the phone whenever i wanted. Sure there were some squabbles but they had me in mind not themselves.

We found him at a carboot stall, they were selling him because of a deformity in his leg. by xxautyxxin aww

Take him to the vet ASAP. He needs that checked and it can be corrected since he's a puppy. It can cause serious issues later in life.

My friend is cheating. Should I anonymously tell her fiance? by Friends_a_Cheaterin AskReddit

[–]Floonet 1 point2 points ago

Myself and several friends anonymously told a friends husband that she was cheating on him. Honestly I never really liked him that much, he's a little obnoxious , but he treated her well, provided for her... She got herself knocked up and he is a good dad. She ran around when he was at work providing for his family and a few of us that she told just thought it was so wrong. He found out, left her, she became an even bigger slut and he mainly takes care of the kids along with her mom and his parents while she is "pursuing her dreams of being in playboy". She's a joke and I don't regret it.

Aunt Flo – The Character Left Out of ‘The Hunger Games’ by Lew12391in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Floonet 2 points3 points ago

I thought about this briefly when reading the book, then I assumed the capital probably is able to get all the female tributes a special shot like a depo only more advanced. Otherwise the women would be at a disadvantage. Could you imagine scrounging for peat moss while in the woods defending your life? No thanks! I went camping once and I got my period, it was MISERABLE.

I'd recommend browsing /r/art or deviant art for portraits you like and contacting the artist with your story. Most will oblige.

Guinea Pig lovers! I need your advice!!! I just saved this little guy! by Floonetin guineapigs

[–]Floonet[S] 0 points1 point ago

I will look into it, it's odd because I'm completely opposed to people who breed dogs and cats, always gotten rescues. With rats, most ratteries take very good care of them and it's recommended (after researching the breeder) to get them that way (although my rats were rescues). I'm in the sacramento area so I should be able to find one.
