- Comment on Wear your seatbelt 1 day ago:
I have sat for nearly 10 minutes while the unbelted person fumed mostly silently
You get one chance to put it on before I pull the car over and put it in park. In this case I turned the car off, pulled out my headphones, and started watching Lord of the Rings on my phone.
The best driver in the world can still get T-boned at an intersection or rear ended at a stop sign. I’m the one driving, you will abide by my safety rules. Take your own vehicle or ride the bus if you don’t want a seat belt.
- Comment on Minecraft streamer completes 14-year journey walking to the Far Lands 3 days ago:
Weird, I was literally just thinking about FLoB last week, and meant to see if he ever got there.
My wife asked what I was doing, so that side tracked me into explaining the Far Lands, and we ended up playing Minecraft for the night.
I honestly expected it to take WAY longer to get there.

Feel free to turn a blind eye to reality, not all of us are priveleged enough to do so.
- Comment on PRAISE HIM 4 days ago:
If I wanted to go through the process of trying to recover my facebook, I guarantee I would get a few dozen people tossing out hand emojis and saying “amen” before anyone notices I’m not talking about the christian god
- Comment on Altered World Event 4 days ago:
I still have the VHS I recorded it on back in the day. No vcr, but it’s sitting in a box in my closet, waiting for the day when I want to see commercials for SG1 Mondays and other Sci fi shows.
Also the DVD, since I actually want to watch it every so often…
I keep introducing it to new people, but it seems to be a bit of a niche interest.

It must be nice, living in a fantasy world where good people win because they’re good and the bad guys get to sit in jail for being bad.
- Comment on Altered World Event 4 days ago:
I love the idea of Objects that can do things we can’t explain.
The Lost Room is probably what got me started, and Control really scratches that itch. I absolutely love the idea of The Oldest House.
- Comment on 4 days ago:
not a vibrator, it’s a “personal massager” and how dare you suggest such a device could be used sexually!

It’s Sony, a Japanese company.
Why would they care about what people in private
Lol. Lmao, even.
Sony cares a bit too much about how people use the things they own that Sony made.
Japan is famous for its laws and customs regarding nudity, sex, porn, accessories, etc… Anything you might expect a stereotypical prude to clutch their pearls over, really. It’s simply gasp too obscene!

- Comment on It is only half greentext, though amusing 4 days ago:
Rude is the coworker who thinks their shirts meant to antagonize anyone left of the US version of “center”, rude are the coworkers who talk shit about trans people on break, rude are the ones who make the LGBTQ employees scared that one day they’ll just come to work and find a parking lot full of people waiting to jump them because the government said it’s legal.
I consider myself quite polite when these things happen in my workplace and I’m not slashing tires or torching cars, and instead all I do is say “hey that’s not okay and here’s why…”
Doesn’t stop HR from coming and telling me I need to be respectful of my coworkers opinions. (HR guy is a democrat, but like… One of those “if you’re being oppressed please resist quietly and peacefully within the confines of the oppressive laws made specifically to target you” kind of liberals)
Remember kids: the standard you walk past is the standard you accept.
- Comment on ugh I hate these notifications 6 days ago:
This gave me quite the giggle.
Unfortunately, I have no one in my life who will think it’s funny.

Bridge under the river Kwai?

How can we be so sure? Someone’s gonna have to test it.
- Comment on Just in case you've been living under a rock: The Crew is playable again! 1 week ago:
Yeah I got mildly excited when I read the title, and now I’m just mildly irritated.
Good for pc players though, it’s something!

Well… Neck. Close enough?
- Comment on Shh 2 weeks ago:
I used to work in a warehouse that made a HUGE deal about the employees using the proper recycling bin so the company can get a nice check from somewhere or other for “going green”
This warehouse recieved thousands of pallets every day.
Each pallet is wrapped with hundreds of square feet of plastic wrap.
Each box is individually wrapped with maybe 10ftsq-50 depending on size.
Each box contains goods in plastic bags. Many of them with plastic clamshell packaging.
The products get unwrapped, and placed in larger boxes on shelves.
When the items get distributed to stores, the items were put in plastic bags, boxed up and wrapped in plastic wrap, boxes placed on pallets that were automatically wrapped by machines in hundreds of square feet of plastic.
None of the plastic from the warehouse floor is separated from the general waste.
Remember, it’s your responsibility to reduce waste.

I think of the shareholders, board, c-suites, and all of their friends every time I gaze upon my Guillotine.
- Comment on THIS JUST IN: FBI suspects Kirk was likely targeted, more info to come 3 weeks ago:
after I typed this I realized I basically just said "yeah incessantly spouting bullshit"
When you’re a mouthpiece of hate, and people who agree with you act on it by being shitty to someone they don’t like, you’ve made many people’s lives worse. When you’re as prolific as he was, supporting a government that’s actively mistreating the majority of its 300m+ population, you’ve made millions of people’s lives worse.
- Comment on THIS JUST IN: FBI suspects Kirk was likely targeted, more info to come 4 weeks ago:
Who would have thought that making millions of people’s lives actively worse in an already not great time in the most widely-armed country in the world could have POSSIBLY led to current events???
- Comment on XC Running: Does anyone else's parents do this? 5 weeks ago:
Sounds like my wife’s mother.
She’s a super narcissist and has some sort of desire to knock everyone else down when she feels like she’s not getting enough attention.
You deserved better from your parents.
- Comment on Gotta Smash 5 weeks ago:
Do iiiiiiiiiit.
Let’s do it.
Let’s fucking do it.
I think we should do it.

Professionals have standards
- Comment on what books about personal boundaries do you know that don't mention god? 1 month ago:
Why do you not respect boundaries?
The boundary being “keep your religious stuff away from me”
- Comment on For fellow Lemmy users who play Project Zomboid. 1 month ago:
Fuck it I’m buying it now.
Half life 2 was my first “I can’t wait to get home and play” game, despite having played so many games from basically 97 onward.
- Comment on For fellow Lemmy users who play Project Zomboid. 1 month ago:
It seems like every time it goes on sale, I am either between contracts or just not able to justify the unnecessary expense.
Now that I have more stable employment it hasn’t gone on sale.
Honestly this by itself might be enough to make me pay full price.
I wonder how long it took, considering they wrote a script to convert the original transcription into PZ usable stuff.
10/10 mod, no pattern buffer for you.
- Comment on Could go for this right now 1 month ago:
Oh my god so much yes.
Make it chilly enough to wear an oversized hoodie and I will never leave.
- Comment on Thanks I hate it 2 months ago:
This looks more like someone did it on purpose.
They’re all shifted down by one
- Comment on Charging to tour rental properties... 2 months ago:
$250 non refundable application deposit?
LMAO I’d sooner torch the rental property than pay just to APPLY to hopefully live there.
- Comment on Charging to tour rental properties... 2 months ago:
My wife and I were looking at realtors and one told us we would need to provide our credit card info to look at properties, and I just laughed and said “go fuck yourself” and hung up.
The only valid response, IMO.
The fact that people actually pay this shit is infuriating.
