Check for ID. If there is none, then it’s mine.
Well, I guess, if it’s some place with like a front desk, I’d consider leaving contact info if someone comes looking. But, really, it’s mine now.

Nothing in particular but, for me, I spent 8 years learning to do a thing and now I won’t even be given an initial interview. It’s the “what the fuck was the point?” of it all.

This is only punishing the other jurors stuck there too. Unless they are putting out enough ppm to be noticeable even 15 feet away in an open air room.
- Comment on 4 days ago:
Well, not like “ape to hominid” evolved. More like “Babylonian to Iran”.
But I also don’t think we have much game lore about some of the origins of pre-Atmorans and pre-Yokudans.

These heathens! Arguing against centuries of line faith! Draw heat wave lines around them and make them burn up!

This is also body dysmorphia.
No one is dumb enough to go to that level of malformation immediately. They must be very unhappy with their body.

Why would “NO” join the opposite side?
The two readings I see are:
PERVERT NO DOGS CANCER IN HOUSE
and
PERVERT CANCER NO DOGS IN HOUSE

Everyone is free to stop posting if they start walking into a conversation that is deep enough to require references: the person above did not.
Additionally, shooting the shit where you’re all talking bollocks is fine. You tell them they’re a dumbass but you don’t demand references because they’re not posting it in public. But, if they bought a billboard to say something unverified and potentially wrong, I’d demand to know what their sources are.
The internet, by its nature, (and this forum, specifically) is not private, and is not afforded the luxuries of private indiscretion.
- Comment on She's just defending her country 1 week ago:
If you don’t want to do research to support your claims, don’t make statements of fact that require verifiable claims.
People feeling free to post whatever fictional bullshit they’ve half-remembered is how we started down this path of “post-truth” nonsense. That’s wanting to be “right” without putting in the effort to make sure you are right.

- Comment on Bit harsh? 2 weeks ago:
Yes, I agree. I was making a joke about how backward, and often times completely incorrect, US education is, i.e., they are teaching the children logical fallacies.
- Comment on Bit harsh? 2 weeks ago:
I’m not sure of the intentions behind this
- Comment on Bit harsh? 2 weeks ago:
I don’t know why you’re sayomg “if.” They are taught logical fallacies, and
gesticulates wildly at nation
If American students were taught to identify and avoid committing logical fallacies, then they’d be in a better place.

Were you doing that travel on a private jet? Because I feel like the scenario skews when you don’t have to have to deal with airport admin and sharing elbow space
- Comment on Being poor is expensive 2 weeks ago:
I’m entirely in favor of raising the foundation of the social fabric, it just bugs me when busses are portrayed poorly when they’re underfunded, and made to seem as if they’re only a poverty choice.
It’s probably by design to stigmatize charity and public policy, and brew the sort of hyperindividualized culture that sees no problem with policies that range from “inadequate” to “truly inhumane.”
It’s true “thinking buses are for poor people” could lead to underfunded buses. But that leads to questions about why underfunding resources for the needy is some people’s default presumption.
- Comment on Being poor is expensive 2 weeks ago:
Where do you live? Because your “poor” country’s minimal daily wage is more than the daily wage of someone on the US federal minimum wage (e.g., $7.25 x 8 hrs = $58)
- Comment on Being poor is expensive 2 weeks ago:
It’s a poverty problem because you don’t have a choice but to rely on policy. That’s what all of those listed things are illustrating.
Hunting for cheaper insurance instead of getting the best coverage, waiting an hour for a bus instead of calling an Uber, searching multiple flyers for the best grocery prices and coupons instead of ordering takeout. These are all “frugal” when you have the money to do otherwise.
It’s poverty when you need to do those things or you just can’t afford to do them.
- Comment on Being poor is expensive 2 weeks ago:
And that’s not at lot…for people in the US, like a month of groceries for 2 adults. Not touching other actual bills.
But in developing countries, $250 could rival a large percentage of their monthly wages.
- Comment on Microsoft Teams status 3 weeks ago:
That implies he is also sitting around watching Teams instead…being productive.
And at the end of the day, unless you’re working at a start-up, your business won’t fail because someone wasn’t nickle-and-dime-ing individual workers on their productivity time.

“Entire evolution”? Do they mean “generation”? How do you categorize an “evolution”?

You’re right! We should stop doing that other stuff too!

Because saying “get out” to someone commenting that they think the vibes are harsh is pretty negative.

Wow. Quit showing off.
- Comment on Thoughts and prayers for them. 4 weeks ago:
There are plenty of more recent and more relevant examples of this type of bullshit without having to go back years, and this is some of the weakest "call out"s of these stains on humanity I’ve seen in a long time.
So your complaint, for posterity, is that the racists used in this meme are not current enough?
Besides the assumption that this post was meant to tout the poster’s moral superiority.
