We need to start recognizing corporate greed as a mental disorder. This is a company large enough that employees don’t interact with the owner directly, and all the profits from the company aren’t enough for the owner: they also want the pen the delivery guy gave you. It’s a sickness.

Explain to the client that your refusing because of the policy that all gifts must go to the owner.

It also had some big gameplay departures from 1 & 2. I’m not talking about being an FPS (although no longer having to worry about accuracy was pretty significant) but the fact that putting on different clothing magically made you more intelligent, and that it was a lot easier to do everything.
In FO3 you can pick all the locks, hack all the computers, pass all the conversation checks, and take on hordes of enemies all by yourself. In FO1+2 you had to pick the couple of things you were good at and not be able to do the other things until your next run. - Comment on Baldur's Gayte 3 weeks ago:
A gear is not a wheel. That’s why it’s called a “gear” and a “wheel”.

A lot of transportation has an equivalent amount of doors, and there a lot of house, apartment buildings, offices… You use a lot more doors every day than you do wheels.

I had my computer plugged into a power bar and we’d turn off the power bar to turn off the computer so that we wouldn’t wear out the switch on the computer.
People actually thought you’d have a computer long enough to wear out its power switch.

it could mean girls or young women
young female is less opinionated & unlikely to clash with varied opinions on the distinction between girls & young women.
So how young are the girls OP is upset about not accepting his friend request? If there’s concern that some people would refer to them as “girls” instead of “young women” the grossness of the statement stands.
You go on this long when people make grammatical errors like using the wrong “their” in their posts? Or is it just excusing language the dehumanizes women that gets you fired up?
- Comment on Anon studies human behavior 4 weeks ago:
That’s my point. If OP wanted to use clearer language “Young Women” would have been better, unless they are in fact creeping on children.
- Comment on Anon studies human behavior 4 weeks ago:
So “young women” instead of “young females” would have been more clear and appropriate?
- Comment on Anon studies human behavior 4 weeks ago:
So anon is asking why young girls didn’t accept his friend request?
- Comment on Anon studies human behavior 4 weeks ago:
they wrote young females.
And you just said “females” refers to women or girls.
So if they are sending friend requests to “young females” then they are sending friend requests to “young women” or “young girls”.
If they don’t want to sound like they are sending friend requests to the young girls of their coworkers (all of their mutuals after all) then “young women” would have been the better word to use.
- Comment on Anon studies human behavior 4 weeks ago:
The fact that the use one form for one gender and a different form for another gender is exactly the issue.
- Comment on Anon studies human behavior 4 weeks ago:
Females does mean women or girls, and they wrote young
So OP is asking what’s wrong with young girls that they don’t accept friend requests from strange men, and your asking why people are pointing that out as a problem?
- Comment on Anon studies human behavior 4 weeks ago:
Did OP use “males” anywhere?
- Comment on Anon studies human behavior 4 weeks ago:
Unless they are talking about 10 year olds, “women” is acceptable.

The business model isn’t terrible, it makes money, but it is terrible for the consumer
I am aggressively opposed to anything that is profitable at the expense of the consumer. That is a terrible business model.

You also said people were trying to pass on the right. If there is enough room for them to pass on the right then there is enough room for you to move over and let them pass.
- Comment on Bruh, chill 5 weeks ago:
I used to have a longish commute on the highway and would use cruise control the entire way. It’s bizarre how often I’d encounter some that we would pass each other 3 times because they can’t decide what speed that want to go at. My speed hasn’t changed.
- Comment on Bruh, chill 5 weeks ago:
Was driving on the highway and it was packed. It wasn’t stop go, but we were under the speed limit with cars lined up as far as you can see.
I look in my review and I can’t even see the headlights of the guy behind me over my bumper. (I’m in a sedan, not a high bumper by a long shot). This is a dangerous situation so I ease off the gas and move over as soon as I get a chance.
This guy then proceeds to pass me, move in front of me, and slow down. I’m sorry, I thought you were in a rush considering how much you were riding my ass, but looks like you have plenty of time to be an asshole.
Next gap in the left lane and I pull over and accelerate, he doesn’t have room to get in front of me, and doesn’t have room to get behind me again due to all the cars.I have no idea how long he had to wait to get back into the left lane, but for someone so impatient he was very effective at wasting his own time.

How DARE you suggest things should be better for me, the consumer, instead of the way our corporate overlords feel is more profitable!
Well, that’s certainly an… Interesting take on someone saying things should be better…
