- Comment on Why is gun violence lower in Switzerland than in the US? 1 week ago:
Thats not the point im making tho. Im saying its different playing fields governing a couple million citizens compared to 300 million citizens.
- Comment on Why is gun violence lower in Switzerland than in the US? 2 weeks ago:
Because theyre playing the same game except Switzerland is playing against 9 million people while the US is playing against 300 million people.
- Comment on Could Archie Bunker or Sanford and Son be made today? 2 weeks ago:
I mean there is a pretty rock solid standard thats been established for remakes. The remake is adapted to carry the current acceptable behaviors and dialogue for when the remake is made. So off top of my head having wached both x-men orignal cartoon and the new x-men 97 here are some charmges i noticed:
- original cartoon and whole franchise included has always had the parallelism between racism and anti-mutant plotpoints. X-men 97 went way more cruel with it to match the current world’s state of affairs. The original had anti-mutant figures INFILTRATING OR ASSOCIATED to the US government while x-men 97 has the anti-mutant sentiment baked into the government. The comments of the villans are way more cruel and seem motivated specifically by the current admin use of ICE. “Theyre like cockroaches you let one in and theyll all come with” im not looking up the exact quote but its the jist of one villain’s dialogue from episode 1 season 1 of x-men 97.
Im putting this together on the spot commenting this so dont butcher me but another sentiment I feel changed is that in the original the anti-mutant plot was more of a battle to prove mutants are not dangerous or the enemy while x-men 97 anti-mutant plot is more focused on fighting against the biggots who are basically real life ICE 2.0.
This was the closest example i could think of off top of head and i know this might be comparing aspects that are opposite to what you are asking. Cuz im not super familiar with the 2 specific shows you referenced but the understanding i took from it is baskically wondering if the Chapels show could get away with performing the skit “The Ni@@er Family” where the black mailman delivers mail to a white family who have a last name spelled the same as the n-word.
My final answer is yes they could be remade but the remake would be a continuation of the characters like they did with malcome in the middle where they add story aspects that occured between the origonal and remake that would give basis for why sentiments or dialogue used by certain characters is now different.
If you wanna know if they could do a direct remake of the original series then my answer is still yes and they would be written to exclude the curremtly unacceptable aspects of the original show.

- Comment on What is the hate against Pit Bulls? Everyone I've met are super friendly like my BC. Or are they the new Doberman for this cycle? 2 weeks ago:
Ill die on the hill that no matter the breed the dog will always be as good as their owner but I also have enough empirical knowledge of seeing what pitbulls and other similar breeds are capable of. DONT ADOPT DOGSCUZ YOU WANNA RESCUE THEM! I know every leading heart dog lover will call me crazy but duck that. If you wanna be a good owner to your dog than the time it takes to be a good owner for a puppy you had from birth should be where you start. Then after raising 5 generations, THEN YOU FUCKING IDIOT AND ONLY FICKING THEN you should entertain he idea of helping at your pound with canines who need rehabilitation. All youre doing adopting is talking yourself out of getting another dog. I have seen more people than i can count growing up who go to the dog store, see the posters to rescue, get their dog and either never see it thru its full recovery before getting rid of it or it was the last dog that person pr couple ever got.

- Comment on How come Rugby never caught on in the states? I played in college and it's basically like football without pads. Isn't it? 4 weeks ago:
Dude tennis has a huge following here. Its prolly why pickleball is the fastest growing sport right now. Its basically tennis for the less athletic.

Havent seen it yet so ill add it to the list: Sports programs. The highest paid government employee for like a decade was Nick Saban the college football coach for Univerity of Alabama. The NCAA schools pay fuckin billions for their coaches and athletics department and its all part of that great college experience you are paying for to get your $40k/year salary degree field diploma.

If they were actually as similar as you think they are you would see more rugby players playing football because of the drastic difference in pay. There have been a couple rugby converts who made the nfl but most dont make it off the practice squad. The game play in the very limited exposure ive had to rugby seems more like soccer like than football.

- Comment on Why do asbestos roofs have so much moss? 1 month ago:
not every material containing asbestos is an immediate and incredibly dangerous health hazard (provided it’s just sitting there).
Ill 1 up ya, asbestos is in almost everything you come in contact with on a daily baises. Home built between 1800’s and 1980? Asbestos in everything. Car parts = asbestos. Basically anything being made not to burn, has used or still uses asbestos. Its drastically less dangerous than what most people like to believe. Left alone, its fuckin harmless and will be hamless for as long as its left be. So dont freak out thinking you need to replace all your insulation in your old farm house cuz you prolly creating a problem that never wouldve became a problem.
The only real live person I ever knew to get mesothelioma was my grandfather who worked as a plasterer his whole life. They used to spray the shit with their stucko, mask-less, with cigs hanging out their mouth. He got it in his 80’s and lived a very long very full life. Its one if the silliest things people choose to worry about.
- Comment on What is it about Mark Zuckerberg's appearance or demeanor that creeps people out? 1 month ago:
So his behavior toward
otherscongress, lawmakers and shareholders, when he addressed every judicial and congressional hearing in front of a camera in an outward manner while being issued billions of dollars of fines for refusing to stop spying on people - doesnt meet the definition of demeanor? I mustve confused demeanor with whatever the wprd for, “behavior toward others : outward manner,” is? - Comment on What is it about Mark Zuckerberg's appearance or demeanor that creeps people out? 1 month ago:
You mean aside from making billions off of spying on people without their conscent? I guess its not as creepy that its publicly known, most of the data collection and targeted ad marketing was also predominantly children and teens. So i guess that excuses the other fact, that most of the targeted ads preyed on children and teens who showed signs of mental health symptoms. Its all good tho, its the world qe live in, errybody spying on errybody.
So breezing over all the known-knowns, how about the simple fact he has paid out billions of dollars of fines for breaking the law to continue spying on people.
- Comment on How is it legal for a webpage who get money by clicks life the photo's of alleged lawbreakers and put it on their site without pay the person in the picture anything? Is this also no jury biasing? 2 months ago:
Dont shit on people for your lack of reading comprehension and inability to understand english isnt every person in the world’s first language. Human brain can read sentences with missing letters from words. This is completely understandable.
What I don’t understand is, how you got so many votes for wanting to remove people who may not speak english well enough for your ignorant standards.
I dont recommend you and your asshole comments get banned but I will use the completely practical feature called blocking users.
Just to be a nice guy and save you the trouble, here is the link for career opportunities available for the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency. They share the same disdain for humans that dont meet their arbitrary dumb as fuck standards. Just like you!
- Comment on If you work at a prison, and then you get sentenced to do time at that prison...Do they let you keep your job? 2 months ago:
If you are asking about the USA then it depends what prison tier you work at (county, state or federal) cross referenced with what tier you got charged at (same 3 tiers basically). If you work at a county jail/prison but commit a federal offense and get sentenced, tou go to federal penitentiary. Its more c9mmon to go up not down. If you are at a federal lever occupationally, your offenses will likely get you aentenced at the federal level. I think itd be pretty hard to go from federally employed but sentenced at a county level. Its just not how our penal code of corruption works.
Youd never get to keep your job while serving time. At least not at a CO level. There are scrnarios where, for example, a prison fire marshal could get charged and sentenced to the se prispn they worked at and also join the inmate fire marshal program/job they usually offer in exchange for time off sentence. But you def dont go home and you def dont keep your pre-felony salary
- Comment on How did the gun buy back program work did you get a gift card or cash or something? How effective was this? Did this even make a dimple in crime? 3 months ago:
Horribly in wny. More guns got stolen but even the ones stolen didnt offset the amount of useless antique guns that got traded in for the same cash as an AR. There is a reason you can not get any statistics from NY on the SAFE act even with FOIL requests.
- Comment on Do people in real life actually care who dates who and who is in or out of "people's leagues"? 3 months ago:
Bunch of “idc” tossed around this thread but i feel like that is natural for anonymous thread pf anonymous people and the difficulty applying the question to real life.
Yes, but not so much that I care about either person’s wellbeing or the quality of their character. Relationship characteristics are simply very telling information for how a person operates. It can put information upfront for all to see without the people really knowing it. Things like what they value, what they have patience for or lack, good insight as to their goals for life.
And im not saying any of this comes from a pass on the sidewalk. The info that is valuable comes from listening to what the person has to say, either on social media or asking them how the family/life is going. So my opinion isnt about caring who fucks who but when it comes to co-workers, superiors, individuals you are paying to provide service (as in financial advisor, consultant, real estate agent, etc.) and anyone else who affects your wellbeing and are also close enough proxy to hear about who their dating - those are the people I observe.
A person can tell you that they are lying by the movement of their pupil. So how they navigate thru dating and relationships can be an encylopedia of information if you want it to be.

🤣🤣🤣🤣 so you think 4 months of pay, health coverage, and accelerated stock options all while retaining ability to use Epic as a reference and no non-compete to deal with as ruining lives. Sign me up for whatever life you are living because if this is what qualifies as ruining your life then it means you must be pretty fucking high up the totem pole to look down on this.

Has nothjng to do with the closet to my knowledge and was always just being about hiding.

- Comment on Anon shoots his shot 5 months ago:
Shit like this, more often than not, only turns awkward because of the delivery, not the joke itself. If you are going to take a swing at dark humor, you only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow. Those opportunities come once in a lifetime.
But for real, you studder, you mess up the setup, you get too nervous to laugh at your own joke. Anything but a perfect delivery with you being the first to laugh to easy any question your audience might have to it being a joke and youre fuckin dead in the water.
Remember, dark humor done right is like a kid with late stage pancreatic cancer… they never get old🙊😂
