[00:20:06] <Sulla> azumahazuki - five years seems really generous
[00:21:30] <AzumaHazuki> for Snow? Blehhhh, he did this to himself. I tried to warn him. His wife must be sick to death of this
[00:22:13] <Sulla> I have tried not to comment too much in the past as I just don't understand open relationship
[00:22:45] <Sulla> But, really its no different than a drunk spouse
[00:23:00] <Sulla> except instead of going drinking most nights a week he is out having fun with other women
[00:23:15] <AzumaHazuki> some people can make open relationships work, but generally not with kids, and generally not when it's so unequal like this
[00:23:41] <Sulla> It all just seems kind of mean
[00:24:42] <Sulla> He seems like a bad friend in the situation, even worse of a spouse
[00:26:57] <AzumaHazuki> right? i really wonder why she puts up with it.
[00:30:46] <Sulla> I asked my wife about that. My wife was very not interested in sex when we first got married, it was only after we did it a lot that she got to need it twice a day. Based on what Snow has said, either his wife really isn't interested or they just never put the work in
[00:31:14] <AzumaHazuki> why does that sound like a humblebrag?
[00:31:46] <Sulla> shrug don't know any other way to explain it
[00:31:52] <Sulla> substitute not a lot and a lot if necessary
[00:31:55] <Sulla> that would have worked
[00:32:12] <Sulla> either way, maybe she really doesn't care, or maybe she doesn't know better
[00:32:45] <Sulla> Or, she has some form of depression that never went away after the birth
[00:33:57] <Sulla> I wonder if snow is one of those guys who is not willing to change diapers
[00:34:37] * AzumaHazuki is once again baffled at how there are damn near 7.5 billion of us if this is how hets play the mating game, and is rather worried the answer is "lots of rape"
[00:37:27] <Sulla> It feels like until recently (past few decades) people put more work into the relationships
[00:37:45] <AzumaHazuki> i dunno about that...depends where you look and what cultures
[00:38:04] <Sulla> Just remembered islam so i'll stand corrected
[00:38:13] <Sulla> but as far as the US goes. relationships seem to be like phones
[00:38:18] <Sulla> not going good? throw it away
[00:39:04] <AzumaHazuki> don't fall for the nostalgia trap. a hell of a lot of marriages pre 1960 or so stayed alive because the woman had nowhere to go
[00:39:09] <Sulla> catholics also fall in there with their not religiously able to say no
[00:40:00] <RandomFactor__> eh? (not Catholic) but they can say 'no' they just aren't allowed to avoid the consequences of saying 'yes' in any manner whatsoever I thought.
[00:40:41] <Sulla> I just assumed that was one of the catholic things. I tend to avoid catholics and their doctrine like the plague
[00:40:49] <AzumaHazuki> ahh, Catholics. my great aunt is finally free of the abusive bastard almost 20 years her senior she married. he fell down the stairs and broke a hell of a lot, and she came back from her daughter's house the next morning to find his corpse
[00:41:27] <AzumaHazuki> they should have divorced ages ago but they're those "Vatican II was a homosexual plot to undermine the One True Faith!" types. She actually said to my face that Jesus was a Catholic once.
[00:41:48] <Sulla> lol
[00:42:08] <chromas> Does that mean he drank his own blood?
[00:42:17] <AzumaHazuki> dead serious. because we all know 325 AD (Council of Nicaea) happened before ~30AD. and yes, I suppose it does
[00:42:54] <AzumaHazuki> ...which is pretty frickin' metal if you think about it
[00:43:13] <Sulla> maybe she thought AD ran backwards too
[00:44:40] <AzumaHazuki> everything fucking else about her religion does, so that would not surprise me
[00:44:49] <RandomFactor__> That's not AD that's AC

[02:07:55] <Bytram> saving the wood, I hope!
[02:08:08] * Bytram wonders what kind of hardwood... oak?

[02:13:12] <Bytram> called up and asked for 'em to send me one.
[02:13:12] <Sulla> thats awesome
[02:13:16] <Sulla> sounds expensive though
[02:13:59] <TheMightyBuzzard> bout $30k for a 4800ish square foot building with hardwood floors. the renovations are the expensive part.
[02:14:04] <Sulla> wow
[02:14:11] <Bytram> they said yes... and then it got cancelled. So I called again. And after an hour on the phone, got it approved again. But apparently the manufacturer "ran out" so still no go. Called again yesterday. Should get 'em around April 5.
