Honestly the best time I had working was teaching undergraduate math as TA.
Would probably do it again but the rest of the coursework was so much not fun that I did not end up getting my PhD.

You forgot the ability to draw a bunch of straight lines, which is probably not that common at a party…

Very creative but I doubt it’ll catch on because of all the extra material and prep needed.
Beer pong only requires a table, a ping pong ball, and red cups, two of which are practically already guaranteed to be available at any party.

You mean those little plastic containers with grapefruit or tangerines in their own juice (or perhaps some sort of HFCS solution)?
I suppose the single serving version IS a bit wasteful but other countries do have those as well, they’re just slightly larger and come in tin cans instead.
- Comment on Anon looks up Danish cuisine 1 day ago:
That’s rich coming from an American but I’m also surprised these haven’t become a thing here yet. Americans love convenience over everything, including human (or animal) dignity.
- Comment on Anon seeks enlightenment 1 day ago:
I mean, there IS the story of Angulimala, a vicious murderer who had already slain 999 victims and was looking to make it a round thousand when he ran into the Buddha, but try as he might, he could not catch up to him, even though the Buddha was walking calmly.
So clearly, he does indeed NGAF because he is in possession of some mysterious force powers likely reserved only for the enlightened, but what is an average person to do in such a situation?
- Comment on Anon seeks enlightenment 1 day ago:
No I get that. I’m just saying in a real life situation, the other guy might not give a damn about whether you accept his hate and let you have it anyways.
- Comment on Bro Dared and found out 1 day ago:
At least in Ireland, apparently.
- Comment on Anon seeks enlightenment 1 day ago:
As heartening and insightful as this story might be, I find it difficult to imagine that someone with this much hate would at the same possess enough composure to state his problem clearly, take part in the Buddha’s spiel about it, and then not punch him in the face at the end.
And I’m not suggesting that this would be a better outcome by any means, rather, that stories like this are sadly sometimes woefully inadequate to deal with the amount of anger and rage that continues to pervade modern society.

No, I was cryogenically frozen in 1996 for a crime I did not commit and only recently thawed up in order to take down the guy who actually did it.

Did Gemini also advise you to post this in this group? Because I don’t think you understand the concept of shitposting.

- Comment on It's important to get a good interest rate 1 week ago:
I mean, we’re talking about borrowing 10 bucks for buying McDonald’s here, I think they’ll probably be able to recover from that just a little faster than they would from getting hit by a car.
- Comment on It's important to get a good interest rate 1 week ago:
As long as you make sure your kids know that you have their back and you’ll support them through recovering from a setback like that, I think they’ll be fine. Paying them back to erase all the pain of the loss might set an unrealistic expectation because at some point, you won’t be there to bail them out anymore. Just don’t add insult to injury by making fun of them or blaming them for their mistakes.

If it’s true, why is this a shitpost?
- Comment on It's important to get a good interest rate 2 weeks ago:
Yes but as you correctly said, it’s a bet.
Plenty of companies fail because they take on too much debt in order to expand faster than their competition but then cannot meet the revenue goals required to pay back all that interest. We just rarely hear about them because all they get is a byline in the news while the winners are endlessly praised for their genius, which creates a distorted perception of reality.
