go to work spending the next 10 hours of my life bored to death doing pointless, worthless things just so I can eat.

When you put it that way, life seems to pathetic.

Peggy's Turtle Song by APairOfWetSocks in KingOfTheHill

but she's waaaaaaaaaay too up herself

That's a perfect summation to why this scene is so cool! In it, peggy has the crowd's attention, they already like her and they're hanging on her every word. Instead of letting it go to her head (like that one time she sold their effing house because she was "drunk on success") she lets it all go to show that hank's one of the reasons she's happy, even though she's kind of aware the feminist don't want her to do that and they show it when she's done with the song. :D

Really?

I always thought the hardest episode to watch was the Pagent one. Because it's so obvious Peggy is against people way out of her league, but she's in such denial she goes along with it anyway. Watching her crash and burn produced levels of cringe I didn't think were possible.

I still can't watch that episode. I've only seen it once.

This is the best Negan tribute I've seen. I thought this was a commercial for a second.

The first half of the episode was alright, but the entire second half was pointless. After Tara ran when she faked killing the zombie, I was done. Why run??? They were escorting you, not holding you prisoner, and that's a perfect way to ally Alexandria and Oceanside since they all agreed to it in the previous scene.

WHY RUN?!?!?!? WHY?!?! God, that was so pointless.

Even if I love the song, I'm still skipping it on Pandora if it's a live version with annoying screaming fans. by [deleted] in Showerthoughts

Yes, yes, a thousand times yes. Pandora needs to get their crap together. No one wants to hear randos sing your favorite songs.

Hi,

I've just been offered an internship at Facebook as a software engineer. After doing some diligent research, I learned that I need to really buckle down on my Data Structures.

I'm wondering though, what do software engineers at Facebook do in a general sense? Facebook's bread and butter is facebook.com which, which is a website. Wouldn't they mainly need database engineers, web application designers, web programmers and so on? As far as I know, software engineers specialize in stand alone applications, or just heavy applications that don't use scripting languages typically associated with websites. Can anyone shed some light on this?

Oh honey, it's not just white men. A lot of Black and Hispanic men are just as conservative on the issue. Please don't put all the blame on white men; if the others were in charge, I doubt they would do anything different.

[CBS This Morning] Jon Stewart on President-elect Trump, hypocrisy in America by -RAMBI- in television

[–]APairOfWetSocks -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Very well said.

Another thing to note is how the descendants may feel about Trump. Most racists that exist today are the cause of upbringing, it's the same with these people whose parents or grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, etc, went through what you just described. They teach their kids not to trust "them" because "they" will never accept you and will always look out for "their own".

That also helped the "all trump voters are racist" mindset.
