  • I agree with the other comments, go out on the date. Dad says your complaining that you can't find a girl to go out with, why are you worried that he's found someone? Afraid they are some horrid person with a crappy personality and a face like a bowl of Spaghetti? Imagine how she is feeling. Now you have something to talk about.

  • Actors that have been the least believable scientist castings, I’ll start.

  • Henry Rollins in Johnny Mnemonic. Dude had to play a super nerdy doctor, basically a wet noodle. Let's cast a guy with a nine inch neck and could actually water his way through most of the bad guy minions.

  • What are the biases of Lemmy?

  • All capitalism is bad, and any attempt to rein it in is failure before any attempts.

  • What is something you never understood the hype for?

    Jump

  • And anything else in that category of blind bag collectables. Can't do anything with it other than decorating a shelf, spend more money than it's worth to get a whole collection and end up with too many multiples you can't get rid of, and fake rarity.

  • What product or service do you use less as a result of their marketing?

    Jump

  • I tried Magic Spoon based on a YouTube sponsor and I was rather disgusted with the way it tasted and felt.

  • Why is it often cheaper to buy new than repair old and how can repairing be encouraged on different levels of society?

    Jump

  • I can't speak for everything, but I can speak for e-waste. Especially printers. Those things are made cheap as hell, but constructed so you can't just get off the shelf parts. Being able to take the machine apart, find a replacement for whatever party is broken, install, and reassemble, you might have just bought a new printer for the same cost as the part. It's almost the same with laptops, phones/tablets, televisions, etc. Brand doesn't matter, it's all the same. Right to repair doesn't mean shit if you can't even make the repairs.

  • I've honestly never quite realized up until now how utterly ridiculous it is that people (especially in the US) regularly demand that their food be chauffeured to them.

    Jump

  • The delivery services are a boon and a bane for everyone. For the restaurant, you no longer need to pay wages or insurance for dedicated delivery workers, but now have service fees that cut into profits. The customer has to cover many of these costs in all these extras fees and service charges, but get did delivered to them. And the driver has to pay for gas and insurance out of the pitiful payments and tips they get. If you are in a rural area, forget about getting enough local orders to cover anything.

  • If I did have a tumor, I'd name it Marla.

  • The point was to not worship these people. The point was driven better in the book, the movie was more anti-capitalist than the book.

  • If someone where to use the term "Adult Playground", what would you think it describes?

    Jump

  • Well, shit. Time for me to book a trip to Vegas.

    Jump

  • Dude, I've been there and it is AWESOME!

  • Anyone else kind of disgusted at the waste created by going out to eat?

    Jump

  • If you think what you have to throw out as the consumer is wasteful, take a look in the kitchens of these places and tell me that it's any better. Most foods that have to be prepped in advance must be separated by single-use parchment/wax paper, then wrapped in plastic. When ready to use, use a glove for a few uses to take the prepped food out of the wrap, remove the paper separating it all, and chuck it out. It could have been prepped a week ago, or only two hours ago for fresh use, you still throw out all this paper and plastic wrapping. And then the cleaning, there is an inexcusable amount of paper towel used for various purposes, from drying your hands to wiping a counter/table, etc. And it's all thrown out. Some restaurants will use towels and kitchen rags, but then you have so many to wash and clean, it's usually done by a third-party service that has to drive to pick it all up, drive to a central laundry stop, do the laundry, and then drive it all back to get done again. And if you are in a place that has a washing machine in-house, it's a drop in the bucket in solving real waste issues.

  • Do you think a story that mixes magic with super advanced technology can work?

    Jump

  • Isn't that what SheRa used? Magic was an energy to be harnessed by the technology.

  • What hills are you dying on?

    Jump

  • Word replacement is fine and dandy, just don't have a physical reaction to moist. I have seen people like that and made me lose respect for them.

    • I haven't been to Taco Bell in a minute.
    • My wife and I stay at Street Rd.

    The second one I get the closer I am to inner city areas. The first I have been hearing more in suburban areas and outside of the inner city regions that it originated.

  • There are certain things people say that should be banned:

    • When saying that you haven't done or seen something in a while, don't say "a minute" instead. I will ask what happened sixty seconds ago and make you a fool.
    • When talking about where you live, you don't "stay at", you live at a place.
    • And being afraid of the word "moist" makes you sound like a toddler who doesn't want a bath.
    • One more, "amaze-balls" and "automagic" are not words and make you sound like a toddler who doesn't want a bath.

  • Why don't communist movements focus on creating and nurturing employee owned businesses?

    Jump

  • The more we get, the better it becomes. Trying to just change the whole system at once is just an excuse for not making the small changes that move the needle.

  • Born In The USA...

  • Time to listen to the Boss.

  • New Bill Would Make All Pornography a Federal Crime in the U.S.

    Jump

  • My question is what defines pornography? Will museums have to cloak statues of naked people? Remove a renaissance era painting because of boobs? How about a movie that has tasteful nudity? Or just ads for Victoria Secret?

  • I wished to be a young man surrounded by cheap pussy. Now I'm ten and have thirty stray cats.
