  • I bought a table saw during COVID. They only allowed pickup in the parking lot. You couldn’t rent vehicles because we were on lockdown. I had no choice but to pick it up with my Jetta.

    People were laughing their asses off at me unpacking it and barely fitting it in the trunk. Styrofoam was going everywhere as I broke it. Had to throw all the packing material into a dumpster.

    So embarrassing.






  • Come to Canada and eat any of our supermarket strawberries, they’re disgusting.

    One of my Italian tour guides last year was so confused when I explained how our produce is nothing like what they have there. Strawberries are sour, not juicy, and white inside.

    We do have some good local strawberries during the summer. This is why, to us, GMO is a bad thing

    Genuine question, where are you from?

    Where I’m from GMO is used to prevent ripening and damage during transportation which results in weak tasting and tough produce that can survive long distance transportation.

    GMO has negative effects too, it’s ignorant to think otherwise.









  • No need to apologize, you’re the first person to actually calmly and willingly discuss the topic without completely dismissing being disagreed with.

    I know you’re not the originally comment I was replying to, but you conveniently moved the goal posts. The context of the entire conversation is whether TikTok specifically should be shut down because it targets children for it’s own gain. You’re now arguing that social media in general has negative impact on society and children, which I agree with, but is completely skewing the conversation and was, in no way, the central point of the discussion.

    So your opinion is that all social media platforms that deem to have negative affects on society should be shut down? Do you not see what’s wrong with that? You’re saying humans can’t decide whether or not they want to use social media. You should understand how absolutely absurd that is - that is a completely dystopian totalitarian dictatorship idea. It sounds like a chapter in 1984.
