No nagging, no shaming for being a "manchild" just enjoying a hobby of mine

I was into RC Park flyers when I was married. I would fly maybe once or twice a week after work. The wife would reliably complain and moan and bitch Every. Single. Time.

Never mind we spent at least two days a month at DisneyfuckingLand, a place I at this phase of life fucking LOATHE and did then too as well as every night and weekend aside from that being her choice of whatever to do. Shopping. Going to her parents house and hear her retarded family drone on about irrelevant shit. But you know what? I catered to her every whim with a smile and never complained.

She left me after almost four years. We had two kids our youngest being 9 months old at the time she filed. She re-married and her new husband didn't work for close to six years. She destroyed my credit, I've lived in my car and I rarely get to see my kids because of the long hours and on-call nature of my job and the family courts refusing me the right to leave my on-call job to accomodate custody without risking perjury, further debt and jail.

I tried giving her everything and it wasn't enough. It's never enough. She just got these feminist courts to take it on her behalf from the point of a government gun. She gets everything and more and doesnt have to have me around. No girl since will give me the time of day due to the financial fuckery caused by this once they find out.

I can't adequately put into writing how much I hate that woman for doing what she did. There are no words for that kind of hatred. Her reason for leaving? Feminist ideology got into her head and she despised the fact that I was the one who got to work. So now I get to pay her to pretend to have a career while she brings some strange loser into what was my home to "take care" of my kids and live on my dime while I was sold off into indentured servitude.

Ive been divorced for almost ten years now. Only now am I beginning to be able to afford hobbies and shit again.

I will buy another RC plane. But never a wife.

platinum_eon · 2019-07-14T02:30:18+00:00

Not going to lie, that does look peaceful to do. Going to buy a waterproof truck tomorrow.

chambertlo · 2019-07-14T02:36:38+00:00

They call you a manchild for this, but the same assholes will do drugs and get drunk every weekend and act like a douchebag, which is a hell of a lot more immature.

armarillo444 · 2019-07-14T05:27:01+00:00

That’s tight af bro. I get called a manchild because I love LEGO Star Wars—it makes me feel like I little kid and it makes me happy.

I reserve any judgement for someone who’s hobbies make them genuinely happy without hurting other people.

Idiot_Savant_Tinker · 2019-07-14T02:21:31+00:00

Looks away from desktop, sees Traxxas Revo, Stampede, Rustler, Pieces of a T-Maxx, in addition to a Suzuki DR650, Harley Street 500, and a complete but disassembled '77 Husqvarna WR250

Hobbies.... yeah...

civcinco · 2019-07-14T04:48:47+00:00

You're ex hated on you for this?

What should you have been doing? drugs? hookers? Gambling your life savings away?
I know: saving your money to buy her some $100 cream. F that.

it-hertz-when-IP · 2019-07-14T03:28:49+00:00

I keep hearing “did u take out the trash?” In my head. Sigh 😩

teelolws · 2019-07-14T02:54:37+00:00

Damn dude, nice car! Where did you find such huge trees and fences? And how much was the helicopter used to film that? And that speed limit billboard must rake in a fortune.

ConstantChinner · 2019-07-14T00:47:16+00:00

Damn man that is cool!

rich_mc_78 · 2019-07-14T01:26:57+00:00

Nice! I just has my Tamiya Lunch Box out recently... it's still a blast!

voshler · 2019-07-14T00:47:51+00:00

Thats one cool toy. I low-key wish I had one.

Onlymgtow88 · 2019-07-14T01:16:59+00:00

Bro I just moved and deep in my closet were some of my old cars. I was really hoping they still worked but they were missing parts. I’m pretty sure sweet remote control cars were the best birthday gifts I ever got.

SupremeGentleman92 · 2019-07-14T03:39:14+00:00

I’ve always wanted an RC 😊 fuck what people think, I will always be a child at heart and be proud of it.

GerinX · 2019-07-14T03:12:04+00:00

That looks like fun. I would do the same thing. Enjoy your hobby! I collect action figures and I don’t let any woman judge me.

cayden_13 · 2019-07-14T04:17:09+00:00

I have a very important question. Did you get a 200 foot gap between you and the puddle, get it going as fast as possible, and try to drive on water?

DangZagnut · 2019-07-14T00:51:07+00:00

Tony Toyota hilux?

Redlantern117 · 2019-07-14T03:15:12+00:00

Fuck ya bro!

UnkleKrampusKids · 2019-07-14T04:23:08+00:00

Well played sir Well played indeed

MasterWilson_ · 2019-07-14T06:48:06+00:00

I still watch cartoons bruh. It’s alright, enjoy.

Doublewame · 2019-07-14T01:09:09+00:00

Making everyone jealous

Fleeb4MrZurkon · 2019-07-14T01:22:25+00:00

Lit, you build it?

MeltAwayWorld · 2019-07-14T01:34:36+00:00

Love it!

xenohemlock · 2019-07-14T03:16:08+00:00

Nice.

[deleted] · 2019-07-14T03:17:39+00:00

ha, love it! that's freedom right there. I used to make pro level RC cars. most people don't realize there are high end models that can clear 100mph, just crazy tiny high level machines. the best part is the construction of it of course. always want to get back into it but not much area near me to drive anymore. oh well, i have new hobbies now but i'll always love those days fondly :)

ian_xk14 · 2019-07-14T03:42:19+00:00

That's a nice RC car

Dmapguy · 2019-07-14T03:42:35+00:00

Awesome. Saving for a drone right now. Was in to RC and model trains in my middle school years.

Supermoto112 · 2019-07-14T03:42:53+00:00

Lmao.! I think it’s a cool hobby. I’m just laughing bc you’re right. Bitch’s do judge & shame.

Darling_Kun · 2019-07-14T03:45:25+00:00

Hey can I join you? it seems fun man.

Volentimeh · 2019-07-14T04:03:09+00:00

While I know the physics don't scale down well I'd love to set up an RC hovercraft.

[deleted] · 2019-07-14T04:24:35+00:00

Amazing. I love seeing this!

freakazoid7 · 2019-07-14T04:31:01+00:00

That is cool as hell, it brings back memories of cool RC I had as a kid. What would be pretty neat is if you could find a submersible one and strap a live feed go pro to it. I used to love playing submarine, now I feel nostalgic.

grizzer99 · 2019-07-14T04:56:54+00:00

Wild post bro. First one I've seen like it on this sub. Always something new, that's for sure

pronelmg · 2019-07-14T05:02:37+00:00

You should build a mini off road track that would be sick!

rdx711 · 2019-07-14T05:03:25+00:00

The graphics are amazing. Which game is it? ;-)

strangerthing7 · 2019-07-14T05:29:13+00:00

damn I wanna try this!

peacevibes13 · 2019-07-14T05:55:29+00:00

That's life enjoy to the core bro !

KingRagnar1588 · 2019-07-14T05:56:16+00:00

Cool man. Do what makes you happy. My ex wife used to bitch about my action figure collecting and customizing/painting.

primalmeme · 2019-07-14T06:04:25+00:00

I need to get myself a Traxaas

krkpatrck · 2019-07-14T06:11:57+00:00

Sweet, I have the 1/8 traxxas summit. Modified with brushless system and steel drivesbecause the plastic ones ripped out. 6s lipo. Fast as hell and 4x4. They are fun toys.

MomoYaseen · 2019-07-14T06:29:31+00:00

Awesome!

You know, with proper filming, you can make it look like a regular sized car doing this irl. Dope stuff.

GYOW.

ChubaTaco · 2019-07-14T06:42:55+00:00

That's actually dope

onedarksol · 2019-07-14T07:04:40+00:00

Sir this is exactly why I want to be successful in life.

needy_asshole · 2019-07-14T07:07:45+00:00

This. Not the women hating memes all the time but living your own life. I like this.

Hero_Dragom · 2019-07-14T02:18:14+00:00

Bro, that's why I love SUV! Enjoy your time with it

FishWhisker · 2019-07-14T02:32:12+00:00

Man, I gotta get back in to this hobby! I used to have RC cars but they would get stuck in pebbles and dirt lol.

ShittySoftwar3 · 2019-07-14T03:02:14+00:00

Good for you. I have a few nitro rc’s in my room. Ftx carnage go18 engine. Been sitting for a year or two, not sure when I can be arsed to clean the carb

TonyDiGerolamo · 2019-07-14T03:02:15+00:00

Cool.

lonewolfcatchesfire · 2019-07-14T07:54:21+00:00

This is awesome. I can’t wait to have children and buying them toys like I always wanted as a child. Maybe they’ll like them.

violetmonstermunch · 2019-07-14T08:27:44+00:00

Wow, impressive. Does it work in the snow as well? Is it powered by a battery or by gas ?

brenthonydantano · 2019-07-14T08:34:53+00:00

Fuck yeah man.

My older brother used to have a couple of those hardcore rock hopper style RC cars. We would take them to the rocky areas of the beach for hours and just nerd out. Such a good time.

ItIsABear · 2019-07-14T08:52:52+00:00

It sucks that we have to stop doing what we enjoy as a child just because we "grow up." Good on you.

DontTrip781 · 2019-07-14T08:56:48+00:00

That was relaxing to watch

erise90 · 2019-07-14T09:00:25+00:00

Nice car man!!

I’m planning to make RC tank in 1/6 scale based on Arduino or STM micro controller. Problem is I can’t decide tank model, since I like a lot of them (mostly WW2 era production and concept modes) and I know I cannot store more than one because of the sheer size of the thing.

Jewbillystein · 2019-07-14T09:11:32+00:00

Where do I get one😍

HofD7 · 2019-07-14T09:54:48+00:00

cool hobby, I like it

broke_bibliophile · 2019-07-14T09:59:08+00:00

That's it. I'm buying one for myself.

HierEncore · 2019-07-14T10:27:26+00:00

That truck must be heavier than it looks....

ovaknight · 2019-07-14T10:50:51+00:00

Adulthood is the best time to be a child again because you can actually buy shit.

ogrelin · 2019-07-14T12:19:51+00:00

Back when I was married the ex once asked me “when are you gonna start dressing like a dad?” To which I replied “you mean like YOUR dad?” Needless to say that was the beginning of the end.

BubbaFatt · 2019-07-14T12:56:21+00:00

Battlebots is your destination my man.

uniptf · 2019-07-14T13:13:35+00:00

Very cool, man. That car is cool as hell, and it looks like you're having fun. Keep at your fun hobby! Thanks for the video!

DoubtsWhatYouSay · 2019-07-14T13:24:28+00:00

My dad ditched my mum pretty early on, he always never gave a fuck. When I was 16 or so he bought us both 1/10 scale nitro RCs, and got pretty into it. I ended up getting a 1/6 Baja 5b and he got a super fast 1/10 Sprint Flux 2. We both still love it. I wanna get an E-Revo brushless.

Jabronskyi · 2019-07-14T14:03:57+00:00

Childhood memories...

ayram3824 · 2019-07-14T14:15:15+00:00

never owned an RC car before. this week at the age of 28 i am going to get one

LemonnMan23 · 2019-07-14T14:15:36+00:00

Manchildren rise up

orangekeyster · 2019-07-14T14:19:19+00:00

That thing is pretty sweet.

Chillz71 · 2019-07-14T14:28:19+00:00

Whats even more fun is doing that in 1/1 scale 🤪😁

SmellyTheBluCow · 2019-07-14T14:54:14+00:00

Boat-truck

ChilledEfilist · 2019-07-14T15:33:18+00:00

It's much better playing with electronic, water proof cars rather than dealing with all the bullshit and risks that relationships entails.

Keep going your own way! ;)

whoooo0cares · 2019-07-14T15:37:45+00:00

Have you heard of gas RC cars? Someone gave one to my dad for me to have when I was a kid. That thing can go up 60mph. I think people get pretty into it, because there was a store that sold just paintball and gas RC parts.

cliffbot · 2019-07-14T15:59:04+00:00

So simple yet oddly satisfying to watch

annehoper420 · 2019-07-14T16:14:14+00:00

But you could be spending your morning having brunch with a bunch of gaggling hens, then off to the shoe store where you can hold packages and a purse, so bored you'd start thinking of lobotomizing yourself...the truck is cool. Good call! :D

AdrenalineJunkySloth · 2019-07-14T16:48:00+00:00

I don't know why but I find this extremely adorable.

reverendDr · 2019-07-14T17:40:49+00:00

Such a fun hobby man! Glad you can enjoy it.

jfknosc0pe · 2019-07-14T05:21:54+00:00

Did you make that?

trevor-boy · 2019-07-14T05:40:19+00:00

Traxxas??

gujii · 2019-07-14T12:18:00+00:00

This isn’t mutually exclusive with having a girlfriend or wife?

630am_now · 2019-07-14T12:59:13+00:00

Dude, that looks awesome!

RdiitUsar · 2019-07-14T13:51:31+00:00

Wats a manchild

Regevent25 · 2019-07-14T15:01:19+00:00

A few days ago I ordered a bunch of stuff to build my own drone. Back when I was married, I never would have even mentioned my desire to make a such a thing.

Th_Blurry · 2019-07-14T15:17:29+00:00

Noice

thisaintme1234 · 2019-07-14T17:31:40+00:00

Nemoitto · 2019-07-14T19:37:58+00:00

This is cool af

Imperatorbenji · 2019-07-14T19:51:55+00:00

Keep on truckin'

U-94 · 2019-07-15T12:17:40+00:00

No lie, I'm looking at a $2800 RC U-Boat with diving capabilities.

Shit I'd pay $5000 if it fired actual torpedoes.

YupThatsAnAlien · 2019-07-26T01:58:16+00:00

vroomvroom my dude

MrShoeguy · 2019-07-14T06:20:35+00:00

You held your camera the wrong way.

-paulpawlowski- · 2019-07-14T23:39:29+00:00

Even though I hate and find this sub super toxic I love rc cars so carry on bröther

masterpiece00 · 2019-07-14T08:14:09+00:00

Playing with toy trucks and posting the video online for karma and approval, that is actually a man child like behavior. Depending how old you are.
