- Comment on College core: you sit in the class for attendance then go home and teach yourself 2 weeks 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 weeks 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.

If only there was a communal source of assets that people and companies can contribute to and pull from. If something doesn’t quite fit your game you could instead spend 10 hours editing and adjusting a premade model instead of 40 hours making it from scratch. Then upload the new model for someone else to start with later.

Is that the new saying? Just replaced the word shit with Trump wherever you can?
I can get behind that Trump.
Wait, no it only works if shit has a negative connotation. The economy has Trumped the bed.

Yes, I am never buying a Ride product again since it seems they were the only ones to pay Amazon for ads. I was trying to watch a show that I was having difficulty pirating and every damn ad was either for tide or bounty for some damn reason so never buying anything from them again since I had to see like 30 of those ads repeatedly. I usually muted the tv and just browsed my phone but for that first second the ad played I could tell it was for one of them.

Wait, if the researchers don’t know who got the pal ebo but placebos can cause actual effects how do they know which effects are from the medication and which are from the placebo? If someone got a placebo and experienced headaches but no one on the medication did do they still have to warn that the medication may cause headaches?

You would think that a decent number of pice would be trained in firearms use and then at least have some guns available at each station that can then send out a trained officer when needed.

I just find regular clothes so uncomfortable in a relaxing setting like lying on the couch and watching tv.
Perfectly fine with them If I’m at work or going about my day outside but pajamas and loose clothing are just so much nicer to me than jeans or collared shirts at home

Only if it’s a quick trip <3 minutes after using a boot scraper and brush. Unless I know I’ve stepped in something particularly sticky like mud.

Actually I absolutely agree with your friend and I don’t even stop at jeans.
If I get home after work and I have zero plans to leave the house again or have anyone over I am in my Pajamas as soon as I can get my pants off, even if it’s only 5pm lol
- Comment on Man posts his incorrect opinion online 2 months ago:
I mean, if you’re doing yard work or something understandable to leave your shoes on in your own home if you’re coming inside for a snack or to grab something etc I do that all the time.
But like, if I invite someone over to hang out for a few hours I expect them to take their shoes off tying the laces isn’t that complicated.
And if I am taking the day off and don’t really need to leave the house for any reason I won’t even touch my shoes I’m going to be barefoot or in slippers all God damn day.
- Comment on Man posts his incorrect opinion online 2 months ago:
Yeah that’s probably why it’s labelled as shoes on then I imagine and why Canada is labelled shoes off since any sort of foot covering is expected / not expected.
- Comment on Man posts his incorrect opinion online 2 months ago:
Quite possible
- Comment on Man posts his incorrect opinion online 2 months ago:
That there might probably the difference in the shoes on vs shoes off culture.
People who think it’s disrespectful to treat someone’s home as less important or people who think it’s disrespectful to treat the guest as less important.
To me someone’s home takes priority over the guest, as it’s just what I was raised by. A house is someone’s home and extremely important to them, whereas a guest is not required to be there it’s a privilege to be invited inside and not having shoes really isn’t a big deal to ask for us.
- Comment on Man posts his incorrect opinion online 2 months ago:
Canada is labelled as shoes off but we also have slippers.
Although not sure about Nigeria, are slippers and flip flops like expected to be worn or just available?
For me I have slippers which are worn often but it’s not expected that anyone inside wear them. Most people just wear socks if they come to visit. And myself I go barefoot unless my feet get cold then I grab the slippers.
- Comment on Man posts his incorrect opinion online 2 months ago:
How the hell did Canada become a shoes off country when it’s not only surrounded by shoes on but also both of its major contributing cultural influences (UK and France) are supposedly shoes on?
