  As a treat it’s worth it once in a while but definitely not regularly unless you are quite wealthy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How come soccer and tennis never caught on in the states? Also why hasn't there been an NFL team vs a Soccer Team and vice versa. Just to prove which is the better sport? Details inside.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m not a sports person in general, but I have as much enthusiasm to watch a tennis match as I do to watch a game of ping pong. I don’t get it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Don’t forget to regularly check your eyes!⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Ah, simple. Roman numerals. 1,2,2,50

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How tf do people who work 8-5 M-F get any life done?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s only for about two months thankfully, which results in 6 months of 4 day weeks and a few weeks of extra vacation time. Biology is pretty seasonal so April/may are quite busy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m not saying multigenerational housing is a bad thing, I’m just saying it should be the only option for a lot of people who would prefer to have their own space. I’m in a multi-generational household myself and it has its benefits and faults.

  You shouldn’t be forced to live that way because it’s you’re only option though

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  The people saying living in a multi-generational home isn’t so bad are also the most likely to complain that the country is turning into a third world country (where multi-generational homes are common) because of immigration.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How tf do people who work 8-5 M-F get any life done?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I worked an average of 12 hours a day last month, 251 hours. Had zero life.

  Make up for it in the winter when I work 4 days a week 😆

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Zero

  Just don’t have the drive. Perfectly happy with not bothering with the social dynamics required to flirt / commit etc. I don’t have much need to have a partner either short term or long term.

  No idea if I’m just weird or if it’s a somewhat common thing for some people.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why exactly are nursing aids paid so poorly?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I can’t see it as being a high expenditure business. Majority of spending should be towards rent/mortgage and repair and maintenance. It’s not like there is a lot of consumables or anything. All that money has to go somewhere.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I'm just better⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It would be really weird going to work at 5am instead of 8am, despite the sun being out

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Be The Sunshine ☀️⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Not the person you responded to, and I generally don’t camp in the left lane, but when I am in the left lane and actively passing someone, more often than not there’s some dude behind me that can’t even wait for me to get 20’-30’ in front of the vehicle in the right lane before I switch and they speed up and wedge themselves through the gap on and angle between us to zoom off.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨buttery males⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Unfortunately stuff like this is why some people don’t vote for Democrats.

  A lot of them don’t know what a metaphor is so regular talk like this makes them feel stupid.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Single player, open world, fantasy, RPG games⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Currently playing Windrose which is early access, ticks most of those boxes except for the alive world. There are communities you can go to for quests but most NPCs you can’t interact with.

  It’s also a survival craft so you build your base.

  It’s a fantasy pirate setting rather than old knights and wizards setting.

  Character creation is somewhat limited but you can tailor it to be more ranged/agile or beefy/heavy hitter etc.

  Still early access though so could be improved

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Very normal and safe⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  True, I did forget that it might have been useful for me in one very specific instance where there was a comments section in one of our excel forms and I wanted to summarize the most common words mentioned in those comments. Couldn’t figure out how at the time but this could potentially have figured it out. Not sure I would trust the accuracy of it’s result though

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Very normal and safe⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  … You aren’t supposed to use it for math… In excel? What is the point?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Very normal and safe⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  How is this easier than just typing in sum(a1:a3)??

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Even if we found a feasible way through physics to travel through time, wouldn't it still be impossible due to the evolution of bacteria and our immune systems?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Couldn’t we eliminate coal from ever existing by transporting wood eating fungi and bacteria back in time to the carboniferous period where the coal deposits were first formed?

  Then the industrial period probably never would have happened, or at least delayed a lot

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Walmart wants a fucking review of this common ass jug of milk. Go ahead shitposters, review the fucking milk.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  There will be dozens if not hundreds or thousands of people who legitimately review that jug of milk for Walmart for free.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Double Plug Experiment⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It could also be that they needed to mud/tape around the opening for the plug in the drywall/plaster and it changed the consistency/chemical makeup just enough to not be as friendly to the growth of mold (less moisture/denser etc)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Good luck figuring it out since it also doesn’t come with man pages⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah agree

  It’s a fucking fox, why does it need to have a specific gender? It was genderless by default they don’t need to announce it one way or another, other than to pander to people.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Lmao⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  If it has a higher gravity would the atmosphere technically be lower since it will squish up closer to the planet?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Free resources⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Not sure how I feel about your downvotes. Do that many people just automatically downvotes at a joke without even realizing it’s a joke on the name?

  Canada will be the home for the next Virgin Mary and the second birth of jesus

  Don’t the young that are born still need honey to survive, which is dependant on available wild pollen?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨meow⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Only 600 more points and it will be lower than when trump too office last year, all gains lost.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨omg hes just like me⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  “existing for no clear reason”

  So like every other life form we know of?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨College core: you sit in the class for attendance then go home and teach yourself⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This was my economics course. The professor would come in, play the textbook manufacturer provided PowerPoint on the screen, and read the slides word for word with little to no elaboration. It was the most boring course I had ever taken.

  Had perfect attendance and got 55% on my midterm.

  Gave up, skipped almost all of my classes to instead just sit in the library and study on my own.

  Got about 87% on my final exam.

  Mandatory attendance is stupid, if you can pass the course you can pass the course.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Air Canada Express flight AC8646 CRJ-900 at LaGuardia crash footage⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve driven around air side at an airport a couple of times, it’s not always immediately obvious if there’s a plane landing even during the day, especially If you aren’t particularly familiar with aircraft, even during the day.

  This was at night, the driver was given the all clear, and there was an emergency they needed to get to quickly. So even if the driver looked to see if it were clear, being dark, all he would see is a bunch of lights in the sky. It would have needed more than a quick glance to see if the lights were of a landing plane or a plane that was just taking off, or even lights from a plane at all.

  People who are religious in the end have faith because they are selfish. They will perpetuate a religious belief that overall creates a worse world for everyone living (wars, enforced ideology, etc) in the hopes that they can have an afterlife of bliss and excess.

  Any updates on the legal side of things? Didn’t Nintendo officially open up a lawsuit not too long ago?
