I’ve seen dozen of the same core “Gamification of real world activities”.
What makes this one different from the rest?

99.99% of all MF’s that say some shit like “Yeah I got bad grades, but if they tested critical thinking then I would have cum loud or whatever”
Yeah ok brother. You couldn’t critically think your way through a 3 page structured essay but I’m sure you were just holding back.

You have to know the rules, why they exist, and what breaking them implies.
If you are in a class designed to teach the rules, it doesn’t even matter if you already did all 3 steps. You’ll fail the class because the class is testing if you CAN follow the rules.

Morally wrong AND sexually unappealing*, I can’t imagine why it doesn’t exist

I have absolutely 100% seen the “she’s a 1000 year old witch coincidentally drawn as a child” unironically in many nsfw forums. Like it’s not hard to find, there is evidence of it on Reddit even let alone sites dedicated to the subject or with worse moderation policies.
It’s out there. Denying it’s existence just reveals your own ignorance on the subject.
- Comment on Anon isn't worried about population decline 1 week ago:
Lower population is generally better for almost all sectors.
But lowering the population means killing people or restricting birthing rights.
- Comment on What is your interesting fact or knowledge that is completely useless that you wish to share? 1 week ago:
The lack of a universally agreed upon definition does imply the lack of an objective definition. And it also does not imply there isn’t a general definition that most people agree on that works in most cases.
Almost all words have different meanings when you get into a specific niche. “Elastic” in casual contexts means stretchy, but in physics contexts, specifically describes a materials ability to return to it’s prior state after being stretched. But if I said “Elastic” lacks a definition in physics entirely, we wouldn’t run around saying “nothing is elastic”.
Yet for some reason people do that exact thing with Vegetables/fish.

You can double an hourly rate to approximate the annual wage. $30/hr ~= $60k / year.
Because 50 paid weeks * 40 paid hours = 2000 hours -> 2k
$30 * 2k = $60k

The moon causes tides, but mooning does not involve tiddies

It’s hard to imagine any of them would live. I guess one near the top might survive by using the flood of elephant pieces to slow their fall. But an elephant can’t survive a ~10 foot fall. That’s about 2 elephants tall, and the bottom two or the ones I am most confident are dying in this.

“Fish don’t exist”-ass fact.
Yes they do. Something lacking a definition in one specific profession does not remove it’s definition from other fields or the colloquial definition.

Shapes don’t exist because actually they are all squares, circles, triangles, etc.
spoiler
Shapes & vegetables both exist. Provide your definition of Vegetable & source if you actually want to push this issue.

The moon of course causes the tides, but the tides are also causing the moon to drift away from earth.
- Comment on the only thing that never trickles down is the money 1 week ago:
A company made $1k extra.
In order for you to get a raise, they are first going to give your boss $1k.
Now they can’t afford to give you a raise.
The end. That’s it. That’s trickle down economics. Nothing else happens.
- Comment on race to the bottom with no other participants 1 week ago:
Actually it’s called Super Slots. We’re rebranding to a new stronger, really a more accurate, but a strong name. Super Slots. Because the old name was actually wrong and weak. And “slot machine” made people think it was bad odds but actually, it’s good odds, good strong odds which is why we’re changing the name. We changed the name. To Super Slots.
- Comment on The wording of racists 2 weeks ago:
Brother, please, proof read your posts before pasting a wall of text.
Second - I generally agree racist terminology is infuriating but what I find way more infuriating is how some people don’t think it’s racist. I still see clips of Fox anchors & other conservative spokes people refer to “Dirty rats”, “Illegal aliens”, or even just “terrorists” when discussing someone who overstayed their visa. Which is hateful and racist, but what feels underhand is their belief that it isn’t racist or hateful. You don’t call someone a “dirty rat” or an “criminal alien” if you’re discussing a factual matter objectively.

Brilliant insight.

Well yes - but the sign is not factored in. If you can prove it without the sign present then adding it provides 0 coverage.

I think it’s supposed to mean raise the quality of your argument. It’s ironically really poorly written.
- Comment on According to the New York Times, Game of Thrones is the 6th best TV show of the 21st century 2 weeks ago:
The sitcom format in general just doesn’t work for modern audiences. The format needed entirely self contained narratives which could be watched with a whole family - that isn’t what the market demands these days.
I think Seinfield sucked but I think all sitcom sucks, mostly because I didn’t grow up in a house that watched them + moved to streaming before I had my own place.

Shocking. Man has opinion and that opinion primarily applies to himself.

A ton of very questionable choices on this list. Many of these aren’t even prestige TV?

The office US is broadly considered the better version. It certainly had a way bigger market success.
