The girl want's to feel that she has such an effect on you that a threat to your relationship causes you to react. Try playing along.

Two equally important questions:

1. When girls try to 'make you jealous,' what do they want you to do, and what should you do?

The girl want's to feel that she has such an effect on you that a threat to your relationship causes you to react. Try playing along.

Definitely do NOT play along. Tell the shorty to smarten up and stop playing games or you'll dip to a next set of chest sacks. You don't have to put up with that crap.

Yes. This is the correct answer, in my completely non expert opinion.

 

[Mirc]

What I've always done in this situation is try to show her how pathetic her attempts were, and have fun logically dismembering each of her actions, but then again it only works with a very limited subset of people. Actually, I wouldn't do that again if I didn't know a person as good as I know the people I have done this with.

Fellas, there are two ways to play things....all is not as it seems Do this right and you have all the power and freedom you want.

 

[Brighteye]

If a girl tries to make you jealous, you should dump her. She's a bad baggage and a waste of your time.
Someone who gives in to urges to indulge in emotional manipulation needs to learn to behave, but you're not going to be able to teach her.

Was there ever a thread about sharing interesting art/paintings et cetera?

 

[Cheezy the Wiz]

Yes, somewhere.

 

[Cheezy the Wiz]

Which, is, BTW, fake, as in taken after the Soviets actually captured the Reichstag.

You the the Marines atop Mt. Suribachi was a spur of the moment thing?

And the soldier is not the one who put the flag, but another, Ukrainian soldier, who didn't even take part in the storming of the Reichstag.

Well they didn't storm the Reichstag, they just sort of walked up to it and said "okay its ours now;" the building being largely unused, and still heavily damaged from the 1934 fire.

Is using a flamethrower in combat against the current rules of war?

 

[West 36]

Looks like West has to break out his pimp hand.
Right?

Rossiya, you said to play along AND recommended a color, how can I trust your opinion now???
The ushanka would be for both, because it would not only keep my head warm, but I'd probably end up wearing it at every unnecessary and inappropriate even possible.
$50 for one sound reasonable?

I don't think so. I've only heard the rules of war when referring to non-combatants, chemical/biological weapons, surrender and treatment of POW's.

I don't see how a flamethrower is any worse than dropping napalm or tossing a grenade at someone.

Just found this on wiki:

Flamethrowers have not been in the U.S. arsenal since 1978, when the Department of Defense unilaterally stopped using them. They have been deemed of questionable effectiveness in today's combat and use of flame weapons is always a public relations issue due to the horrific death they inflict. They are not banned in any international treaty the U.S. has signed. Thus, the US decision to remove flamethrowers from its arsenal is entirely voluntary.

But surely their good at torching buildings where enemies are located in urban combat?

 

[Brighteye]

There are probably easy ways to torch a building without using specialised flame-throwing equipment.
Furthermore, if flamethrowers are a public relations issue, torching people inside a building probably is too.

 

[Cutlass]

But surely their good at torching buildings where enemies are located in urban combat?

Theremite grenades will do it, and from a greater distance. Safer on the troops. A soldier wearing a flame thrower is at a hell of a lot of risk on a modern battlefield.

Question: If a woman does drugs, and then stops shortly (maybe a few months) before becoming pregnant, can it still affect the fetus?

I looked through a bunch of textbooks and didn't find anything about this situation. I'm just curious. (No, I'm not pregnant, nor do I do drugs.)
