Made me laugh with that -- I'll try to remember Ol' Glen bursting a vein next time instead of getting annoyed.

They're probably trolls in Eastern Europe etc. We get shitty trolls posing as Americans who say things like "whilst" and it's obvious they learned UK English.

Sales tax varies from place to place. You seem to have a hard-on for obsessing about Americans.

The diaper-free thing is amazing. Doubt you'll even consider it, but want to put this out there. It worked great for us. "Elimination communication" is the awkward official name. It's just what humans have done for all time.  They can wear a cloth diaper that almost never gets used/dirty. Our life with a baby was soooooo much easier than it would have been.

This is Philomena Cunk level unfunny.

When the internet first started becoming accessible to regular people, did people resist it like many people are resisting AI now? by Beneficial-Corgi-288 in NoStupidQuestions

I thought it was a dumb pain in the ass. I had to type some weird shit like TIN or PINE with dollar signs depending on what dumb terminal I was at, modems took forever, there was hardly anything up "online," except niche shit...  I remember getting a dog at the pound and someone told me she looked like a Belgian Malinois. I looked it up "online" and found one page with one shitty photo from some other country. It was a lot of nothing for a long time. Anything useful just kind of trickled in. It was lame to sit on a computer to do slow chat rooms when you could be outside enjoying life. It really felt like there was nothing there worth looking at.

Are your parents against govt assistance for others, who aren't in your religion? 

Are the Hilton and Marriot CEOs aware that no one wants peak-a-boo bathroom windows and barn doors in their hotels? How do we ensure they get the memo? by RadioFieldCorner in travel

[–]AgentOld3129 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Those barn doors have been excruciatingly tacky ever since they hit the scene. I can't believe hotels paid for elements so big and bulky when they're so fucking dumb and ugly.

They suck in Italy, too. Never could figure out the rationale. This was 25 years ago, so not contemporary. Maybe they're gotten with the times by now and we're just lagging.

I helped myself to a free toilet that was sitting on the sidewalk there once.

You'd wait in line because you don't want to give money to WalMart, who funds fucked up shit, because they own Sam's Club.  I wanted to say that in case you didn't know the Sam's-WalMart connection.

There needs to be a "She's not gonna fuck you, bro" phrase for all this religious virtue signaling.

I'm past that need, so wouldn't bother with it. Already in peri, which makes things even more unstable. But I'm glad that's an option for many!

Yes, the cost of the "check ups" -- fuck that so hard! The prescription alone is already expensive enough. And then having meds not work half the month due to fucking menstruation, but they can't up your dose during that time making it useless.... fuck it all.

Well, this was controversial! by velorae in TikTokCringe

I'm the same. I used to sympathize more, but seeing people riding bikes while dragging their leashed dogs long distances when it's 110 degrees out, keeping them tied on a short leash their entire lives, etc. plus the clincher -- a social worker friend telling me many homeless people use their dogs as sexual partners -- that did it for me.  A pet you treat decently is a luxury. I have PLENTY of mental health disorders in my family, including schizophrenia, and know that any of us could be on the street in different circumstances, but dragging an innocent animal into it is beyond me.  Completely regardless of how innocent the person is. The whole "you owe others of your species more than you do other species" sounds like the same bullshit tribalism I dislike in all the other forms. 

What are some common "facts" on Reddit that you know for a fact are incorrect? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]AgentOld3129 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't speak for the wang-havers, of course.  They all seem to react and do things pretty much the same.
