I hate you. I hate you so fucking much right now.
- Comment on How true is this on the first trip visiting Japan? 3 days ago:
It’s all advertising anyway. Just do what you do in America, let it work on you subliminally to convince you to buy cartoon themed products you don’t need or want.
- Comment on and they wonder why reddit stock is tanking 1 week ago:
Years ago - back when reddit was supposedly “good” in the days before Trump I got banned from AITAH for swearing because curse words are “violence.” Reddit has always been ridiculous trash.

- Comment on most libertarian costume 1 week ago:
My favorite example is out in Arizona (forgive me I can’t remember the name of the town). They moved there because the land was cheap but wanted to contribute NOTHING to the local township while still being a burden on their resources. Then got BIG MAD when the town had a water shortage and decided to prioritize their residents so they cut off water to the libertarians forcing them to have to ship in water from elsewhere if they wanted to keep living there and suddenly that “cheap land” because very expensive to maintain.

Is that a century egg? I’d eat that. Been wanting to try one actually. I hear they’re tasty af.
- Comment on Unsolicited, but not wrong 1 week ago:
We tend to filter things through our personal experiences. I kind of envy the people who were purely confused or whose first thought was astrology girlfriend.
- Comment on Satan Was The Good Guy This Whole Time? 1 week ago:
This is why they don’t want people reading. Literacy will have you picking apart common narratives and questioning interpretations of the bullshit those in power have spoon fed you your entire life.

No way our white house currently looks that nice. 1/3 of it is a deconstruction pit, the roses are a concrete slab, and did they ever actually fix the grass after turning the front lawn into a mud pit for trash coin?

That’s so stupid. I don’t know why I still look for logical consistency.

Sticker manufacturers exist that allow you to talk about pedophilia on your products but think swearing is a bridge too far?

Do you not know what a pun is?

I’m more annoyed at the language filtering. Be direct. Be clear. Who are helping by writing “f#%ked”?

70s? That look held on until the early 80s. If you know you know.

- Comment on According to the New York Times, Game of Thrones is the 6th best TV show of the 21st century 1 month ago:
I’ve watched almost none of these. But I’ve seen a lot of them advertised - hard. This feel like promotional material. I’d bet all of these are currently streaming on varying services. I mean looook at all these shows you haven’t seen. Do you want to be the only one who hasn’t seen PEN15? If you don’t keep paying higher and higher monies to your streaming overlords you’ll miss the the in progress award winning shows. Do you want to be a social pariah?

HA! Jeep drivers will tell you that light just means everything is functioning as normal.

Don’t forget they are designed by mosad. So they also might blow up.

Perhaps the children.
- Comment on I GOT THE MOVES LIKE JAGGER 2 months ago:
Would you trust your instrument to be stored under the plane? I don’t have a problem with people bringing fragile items into the cabin. That doesn’t mean it’s his main character moment to pull it out and dazzle a (literally) captive audience.
- Comment on Food served to US service men & women. 2 months ago:
This is the exact same stuff they fed us when I was in Iraq 20 year ago. They gave the contract to the lowest bidder who bought the cheapest food possible then pocketed the “leftover” cash. This isn’t new. The difference between then and new is our families could send us care packages and we didn’t have cell phones to post about the mystery meat. I don’t want anyone to eat like this but I also don’t know why everyone is surprised by wartime food. Food SUCKS when you deploy, it’s why they give troops the big send off steak and lobster dinner. Best way to avoid giving giving our troops trash food is to NOT DEPLOY THEM.
- Comment on Elons not a gamer. 2 months ago:
He’s just sucks at gaming. Maybe he’d improve if he actually played the games instead of paying people to level his characters for him or had friends to play with. Fucking loser.
- Comment on It's taking forever 2 months ago:
Because surgeons are the absolute worse when it comes to sterile technique and OR safety.
- Comment on YouTube won't let me search for music by musician unless I remove the word "naked" from her name 2 months ago:
No it doesn’t. It’s about friction. They want people logged in to better monitor them and collect their data. If someone uses their service while logged out the platforms make it difficult as possible in as many ways as possible to “encourage” people to create an account and log in. “Protecting the children” is just a satanic panic excuse. PARENTS are responsible for managing their children’s online activities. Expecting platform providers to be the arbitrators of morality for our kids (or for adults) is how we ended up with Elon Musk’s fucked up CSM generator on twixxer.

- Comment on What would happen if you maxxed out your credit cards and line of credit then moved to some village in the phillipines? 2 months ago:
-Unpaid debt gets sent to collections.
-Collectors would try to contact you.
-Your debt would be sold multiple times among multiple agencies, all of which would make efforts to try and contact you to collect the debt.
-After about 7+ years the debt is written off by the agencies and drops off credit reports.
-Once the debt dissappears your credit score would go up.
-You don’t need to leave America, you can ignore debtors/change your number/avoid being served (obviously laws are state dependent). An attempt to reclaim what you purchased could be made depending on how much you owe/what you bought but usually it’s not worth the hassel.
-If you leave the US and want to see if debtors are still looking for you pulling your credit reports will reflect it.None of this applies to student debt.
- Comment on This is what Democratic voters are saying. Will the party listen? 2 months ago:
That’s what most Americans are saying. The biggest voting block in America is independents. Yet we stupidly keep lettings the elites in the margins have all the air in every room so they can pretend-fight over invented talking points as a distraction so we can’t stop them taking our time/money/resources.
- Comment on Could I theoretically grind up one of those pink salt lamps and use it to season my food? 2 months ago:
I wouldn’t. While yes, it is technically salt, it isn’t food grade. You could have a safe to eat lamp OR a lamp contaminated with toxins or heavy metals or radiation. And that’s before whatever processes may have been done during manufacturing to turn it into a lamp. Not to mention if it’s been sitting out it’ll be covered in dirt and dust which is also not great in food (not dangerous, but not enjoyable either).
- Comment on Amazon thought it would be a good idea to not include subtitles in a film made entirely with sign language. 2 months ago:
I get a special kind of mad when I watch a foreign film in its original language. Turn on that language’s subtitles and the subtitles don’t match what’s being verbally said because apparently the subs have been translated into English then back into the original language so nothing matches and everything sucks. Or worse when they’ve translated some idiom for American audiences and have translated that idiom back so what’s being said makes zero sense.
