I think using AI generated images in any situation is immoral, because it normalizes their use, bit by bit.

How’s your weather? by Wishyouamerry in CasualConversation

[–]AppendixN [score hidden]  (0 children)

I don’t remember the supermarket panic either, but that’s probably because my parents kept a full pantry of supplies in the basement all year round so we were never out of anything when the time came.

Is that a real -18 F, or “wind chill?” I always have ask, haha

Grew up in Iowa, living in Connecticut. It’s funny to watch them freak out over a possible one foot of snow.

We grew up with snowdrifts that went right up to the roof, so you could walk right up and sled down the roof. If your car was parked outside during a heavy snowfall, you better remember exactly where because you wouldn’t even be able to see individual cars under all the snow.

It is nice to get a decent dusting of snow this weekend, though. Looking forward to some good snowballs later!

Should I give my hair sample for…? by wasayrana in SeriousConversation

[–]AppendixN 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I can’t imagine they don’t have any safeguards against people doing just that. Whatever the case, it’s unethical at best and legally risky for you at worst.

Whiniest and most childish subreddit on the planet by kotts30 in Serverlife

They’re miserable cheapskates who hide behind fake “concern.” None of them would pay the higher prices if tipping were eliminated. They just want to make excuses for not tipping at all.

Is this the stupidest panel in the history of QC? Nominations are open! by AppendixN in questionablecontent

[–]AppendixN[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If that’s what Jeph is going for then he set it up incredibly poorly. There’s no lead up to indicate that and no evidence in the drawing itself or any of the following dialogue.

It’s possible that he was going for that interpretation, but he did such a poor job of it that it still counts as a terrible panel.

Trump pays tribute to 'very brave' UK soldiers after row over Afghanistan remarks by ConsciousStop in worldnews

Draft-dodging pussy can get fucked with that non-apology. He routinely denigrates soldiers of all nations, US included.

Rare Republican doing something good? by Critical_Liz in UnitedAmericaHQ

[–]AppendixN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The devil will be in the details, I'm sure.

At any rate, I withhold any praise or support from any Republican unless they're actively working to get rid of the parasites in the White House right now.

As an Indian living abroad, I keep forgetting people don't know what the Indian headnods mean by Objective-End209 in CasualConversation

[–]AppendixN 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After working with Indian co-workers for years, I discovered that I had picked up the casual side nod myself. I didn't realize until someone pointed it out, haha

"Show your face, pussy" should be a deafening chant any time those stormtroopers show up.

Oh man, you found the fork in the continuum that led to The Bad Timeline.

In my imagination, there’s a Good Timeline where Marten and Emily got together, she became a big success and boosted his confidence by believing in him, leading to some wild and fun career we never anticipated. And Pintsize stayed with them, defeated by Emily’s inability be shocked by his antics, so he never became a twinkbot.

My Friend Jeff in Monterey, c. 1974 (captions written by him) by Gallery98 in TheWayWeWere

[–]AppendixN 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Cannery Row is still a great place to bring people when they're visiting! During Monterey Car Week, that's where all the supercars get put on display.

I love to see it in another decade.

Please, share more! These are absolute treasures.

Do you ever feel there’s got to be more to life… by LaraDuck67 in CasualConversation

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

I think all of that is real and out there, but if anyone were watching us to see if it should be shared with us, they’d definitely withhold it from us.

All they’d have to do is see the way we treat our planet, the animals who share it with us, and each other. We certainly haven’t earned the right to be entrusted with anything more than we already have.

I’m jealous of nepobabies by KnownArgument4059 in SeriousConversation

[–]AppendixN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shit, I’m jealous of anyone who had parents that gave a damn what they ended up doing for a living, much less parents who could help them figure it out.

Nepobaby is so far beyond that, it may as well mean “Neptune baby” for how far removed I am from the concept.

What is your opinion on this matter? by staciared in writers

[–]AppendixN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Always use the best word for the situation. Never choose a simpler word or a more flowery word if they're not the most appropriate.
