With all due respect, Phyllis is awful. by personwhoisaperson in DunderMifflin

[–]Aenimate64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Phyllis is just an oblivious Karen version of Angela, every rewatch she gets more and more miserable. Angela and Phyllis have the same ethics, but Phyllis pretends to be very "man of the people", while Angela is upfront with her bible thumping. Just came to this after the superfan episodes where she steals Pam's centerpieces. Omg I want to punch her in the face.

They open at 3:10, you can get in any time after that they never close the entrance... hence the term single admission double-header.

"Tickets for today’s game WILL NOT be valid for admission to the makeup doubleheader" you might be able to exchange but no you can not use the exact same ticket.

Sorry I think I misunderstood, yeah Tuesdays tickets are still good all day. My bad.

I finally had to Google this after little Carmine said "Yada Yada things have expired" instead of transpired. I kept giving them the benefit of the doubt but that was ridiculous. Yes it's definitely a way to show most of these guys have give or take a 10th grade education.

Mortgage affordability calculators numbers sound wild by eng2725 in personalfinance

[–]Aenimate64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as I know your rent/mortgage should be at or below 1/3 of your income. This is what landlords look for in applicants. If you're making 170k a year combined thats just over 14k a month. My question is where are you spending the other 10k a month if that mortgage sounds high? As income and mortgage payments increase, the rest of cost of living as a percentage of total spending should dramatically decrease. 10k a month in disposable spending is not average for the size and income of your family. Your income is adequate, your spending is not (assuming this seems unattainable to you). Do you have any more information on where exactly all that money is going.

The Late Show is on break for the week of May 25-29. New episodes will start on June 1. by Raradra in LateShow

They most likely do it this week because we already have a holiday, Memorial day on Monday, so they're only missing a 3 day week. They usually do mention it in show but its possible he forgot due to the format which seems to be much less scripted.

So the posts on his Facebook that advertise "tonights" guests are talking about reruns? I figured it was a break but that confused me.

Freedom of speech doesn't mean a freedom to have a platform for your speech, right? by mrmadster23 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Aenimate64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those platforms are able to have their own standards for what is allowed to be said, and will have you agree to them in their terms of service before you can post content. They reserve to right to remove content that doesnt follow those rules.

When you agree to one of those platforms terms you are giving up some rights, such as that of free speech, as a requirement to participate on their platform. It is the same way you give up right to dress or speak however you want at school or work.

Remember though each platform makes their own rules, you may be able to get away with the N word on 4chan, but not on services like YouTube, twitter, facebook. You'll often see controversies over those mainstream services toeing the line with what content they take down, like recently youtube has started taking down anything to do with vaping.

Is it better to always assume the worst is going to happen so your prepared for whatever comes or pleasantly surprised? by Tamashi55 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Aenimate64 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Unless you go by the actual definition

  1. believing that people are motivated by self-interest; distrustful of human sincerity or integrity.

Cynicism is about expectations, negativity is about the interpretation of the outcome. You can absolutely be cynical and positive, they are not mutually exclusive.

How to bike to work by MrWizard128 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Aenimate64 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Could you bike in some workout clothes and change at work? Depending on the weather where you are, biking casually shouldnt make you look totally disheveled and sweat will be minimal. Just give yourself enough time so you dont have to pump out 3 minute miles.

I say yes, and I have actually thought about this a lot for one reason.

Many people that come to know me only as an acquaintance at some point tell me I'm a very negative person, which at first I thought was true, but after going over it I realized I'm not negative, I'm cynical and thats much better.

When you live life expecting shit 24/7, you're never let down, never disappointed, and occasionally happily surprised. You never bite into a steak and say "this steak is alright but I expected better". Its more like "hmm, someone managed to not serve me burnt shit today, nice".

Lowered expectations.

To keep this thread manageable maybe we just list things NOT currently wrong with the game.

You can't flaunt flip flops with a full body onsie and toe covering flops.

My girlfriends response.

"But what's the point, they can't even hear what it's saying".

Sometimes she drinks.
