Anecdote: a street near my house in high school had speed bumps next to the park. Occasionally people would be woken up at 3am to a dunk Douchebag shredding down the road at 50 and launching himself off the speed bumps and smashing into stretside cars.

Eventually they had the bright idea (after a few years in a row of snowplows damaging their blades and the road needing repairs) to make a gentle S-curve instead. Now you don’t feel like you can go 10mph over the limit, the road only needs minor repairs every 5 yearsnor so, and to my knowledge nobody has launched themselves into stationary vehicles in many years.

In fact, I insist.

The fact that people would rather see their taxes bomb a brown person’s house instead of building 10 is sickening.

Why would you give water to a country that has threatened to invade you in recent months?

Half the time when you see someone walking around with the wrong amount of pips, it’s just delicious street corn

Dude… It’s SALT.

Actually, having been on reddit for over a decade before I left, I’d agree that there is a superiority complex present on reddit when someone asks for clarification on an acronym.

Without fail, if someone used acronyms that might be considered by some to be “common knowledge”, and another user asks what that means, they’ll get down votes and sometimes even a “are you joking? Everyone knows it means blah blah blah” or similar comment.

I once saw a person get over 50 down votes for asking “what does ETA mean?” when the OP meant “edited to add”. I had never seen anyone use it to mean something other than “estimated time of arrival” and was mildly confused by the “ETA” at the top of the comment. Not one single person explained what it meant. Just down votes. I had no idea either at the time, and didn’t care enough to do some light searching.

I’d say the business ones are dependent on where you work. I’ve never worked in a corporate setting where I’d imagine they’re more common, so I can’t really comment on that part.

And the Internet didn’t exist back than in the sense that there was no real yt, twitter or Facebook yet.

Damn, what the fuck was I using to talk to random people about rc stuff and music and shit? CLEARLY it wasn’t the internet, as that didn’t exist before facebook and youtube blessed the world with their presence.

Gladaed, what you’ve just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

I love how when I point out it’s owned by a nazi, people rush in to defend their use of twitter and most usually it’s some form of “it’s the best for what it is/it has a huge user base” and me responding with a picture of musk doing the ol’ Hitler Salute saying “okay but you’re supporting this guy, and if you sit at a table with 10 nazis…” usually results in being blocked, people simply ignoring me, or saying something dismissive.

Calm down there, Satan.

Ew, don’t import our bullshit.

American cars are the worst on the planet, and unless you’re inside one, your life is in far more danger if one is nearby.

Surely the article title means “again”, as he has done so repeatedly.

Landlords province nothing to society, they are leeches who profit off others hard work simply because they “own the property” the worker lives on and takes care of.

Save a tree, axe a landlord.

Why are these pansy fucks complaining?

Money.

Does anyone for a moment think any article would use the phrase “Saudi/North Korean/Chinese president ‘closes’ US airspace” in any way if it were a threat to the US?

Is Switzerland full of sexist people who think “someday I’LL be rich so I don’t want to tax MYSELF more, hypothetically maybe in the distant future”?

The original headline was something like “Cuomo says he’s moving to Mexico if Mamdani wins”

But damn do I wish he would do it anyway.

Understandable.

It’s a fairly middle-of-the-road, while being catchy and therefore played all over the place.

I’ve felt similar about a lot of popular songs in recent years. They just feel bland, but some parts still get stuck in my head every so often.

Executives should be forced work their lowest paid company position, and be dumped in an apartment with absolutely nothing.

See how long they survive.

You can talk to me about my work-life balance when I’m not putting the healthy option back because it’s more expensive than the cheap unhealthy ultra processed bullshit and I can’t justify the expense.

I lost my grandmother and my sister is currently in treatment, both my parents are showing symptoms but don’t have money for Healthcare and refuse to go into medical debt. I myself am sitting on top of a handful of symptoms I’m willfully ignoring hoping they’ll go away.

It is a heartwarming post.

Just seems like a weird place to be negative.
