  It’s amazing how you can eat 12 chicken nuggets with large fries and still feel like you haven’t eaten anything.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Trying to find a messenger bag at Amazon⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  It used to work. When something no longer sold, manufacturers would diversify. Now they force you to still buy the same product with the help of politicians and bribes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨why is fossil fuel still used?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Hahahahahahahahahaha!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sooo... This is happening on Imgur⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  The local codes are FR, MüL and Lö. This guy’s licence plate was FR HH and then the number.

  I’d assumed y’all would be smart enough to figure out I didn’t mean the first two letters but I suppose I was wrong.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sooo... This is happening on Imgur⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Nope. I mean, yes, it is, but the one I saw yesterday had a Freiburg code (FR) and then HH.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If WW3 breaks out, who is going to be on which side?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  No, the US will not be on the side of Europe.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If WW3 breaks out, who is going to be on which side?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  The US will be bankrolling Russia. Russia is weak and poor. The only reason they’re still in Ukraine is China. And once they’ve conquered that, the US will happily help them invade the rest of Europe.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If WW3 breaks out, who is going to be on which side?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Nope. America, Russia, China and Russia will divide the world amongst them.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Countries/Cities without Walmart's/Giant super centers⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  European motorways are a nightmare. It might not look that far on the map, but I’d rather drive from Boston to Brooklin ME on the i95 than from Karlsruhe to Freiburg on the A5.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Countries/Cities without Walmart's/Giant super centers⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Not in Baden-Württemberg. You’d have to go to France.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sooo... This is happening on Imgur⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  The top right picture needs “HH” added to it. It’s what people use on license plates. Used to be banned in Germany, but I saw one yesterday so I think My Little Nazi has unbanned it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sooo... This is happening on Imgur⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Let’s call a spade a spade. It’s Nazism.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨why is fossil fuel still used?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Fun fact: Shell patented tons of alternatives to fossil fuel and then shelved them.

  Sauce: worked there.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Countries/Cities without Walmart's/Giant super centers⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Germany. Even the “big” supermarkets are tiny and they’re all German owned.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dispute⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  We had a blackbird that lost both its parents. It started begging from the sparrows instead and they happily fed her. She’s an adult now, she was with the flock of sparrows until she found a husband.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Apparently, all YouTube Rewinds have been unlisted as of today.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve been on YouTube from pretty much the stat and have never seen a Rewind. Do only Americans get them?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it Possible that a Typical Quantity of Sneezes is Inherited/Genetic?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I have sun sneezes but I only sneeze once.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is in your pockets?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  We all know that the reason is usually “being a human of a funny colour” though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  If you can’t remember the alphabet, your education has failed you big time.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it even feasebal to find 12 people who have not been screwed over by insurance for the Luigi trial?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I have a friend with lupus who votes Trump. She is very, very ill and will be bankrupt soon.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Shout out to my engineering homies.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh you will, you will. Trust me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Shout out to my engineering homies.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  You’re not a researcher depending on funding that barely exists anymore, I assume.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fresh dystopian hell from Samsung fridges with ads.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  If you bought it without ads and it started showing ads, that would be a breach of contract.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Shout out to my engineering homies.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  When you’re 60 and the choice is either a permanent contract for the army or 1 or 2 years elsewhere, you’re going to choose army.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨why are they pushing kpop demon hunters so badly? Who makes money off this new group?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I think it’s terrible too, but if people like it, I won’t yuck their yum.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Busted box inside of a pristine Amazon box⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Instant coffee has its uses, but it ain’t coffee.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Ayup. There’s such a thing as rich chavs (called bogans in Australia).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do big people wear the tiniest shit especially at rallys or riots? Like on Jan 6 I saw a bunch of big stupid people have on bullet proof vest that was only maybe 6inch by 6inch or tinier?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The downvoting isn’t because the question is stupid.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Did the Buldak spicy ramen get less spicy?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  People don’t seem to realise you will build up a tolerance. My ex used to buy large bags of pickled hot jalapeños. Initially he could eat one or two, after a while he’d eat the entire bag without sweating.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This whole exchange⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  There were tons of Bibles, but the Romans only accepted this one. The assumption is that the others weren’t very nice about the Romans. Think about it, a bunch of stories written during an occupation that barely mention the oppressors? And when they do they’re nice about them? That makes no sense.
