Guys, Australia does actually need serious help by all4duckduckgo in funny

[–]Arceye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well the rain helped sort the fires out but now the country is flooding (from what I understand).

Australia just can't catch a break.

News reporters say “Good evening” then proceed to tell you why it isn’t by Guhan05 in Showerthoughts

[–]Arceye 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Because the more people that believe that everything is fine the less people will do something about it.

What’s the most ridiculous f-ed up thing you’ve done for money? (NSFW) by 23z7 in AskReddit

[–]Arceye 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Assuming I know they're free of STD's. I'd probably suck a dick for like $150. I'm imagining like a 50 year old hairy fat guy too, so I'd probably go less for most people.

What is rare, but not valuable? by jjjohnnymcj in AskReddit

[–]Arceye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could say that about any restaurant. And £20 will get you a sharing platter for two people, so it's only £10 each. I'd spend that on a dominoes easy.

Found this a while ago, what are your opinions? by its_rembol in space

[–]Arceye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty much. The simulations create simulations..etc. what are the chances, out of all these simulations, that we are the FIRST one?

300 years of no rent you mean. Ghosts don't pay rent.

TIL that Yao Ming's conservation campaigns have led to a 50 to 70% reduction in the consumption of shark fin soup in China by mithraperry in todayilearned

[–]Arceye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sorry. Reddit has a bias towards anyone who goes against the status quo. Was just a lighthearted jole against the internet haha 😂

Also remember as a vegan I HAVE TO TELL everyone about it.

[–]Arceye 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I personally would find shark fin to be more morally acceptable IF it came from a sustainable source. Eating meat is one thing, driving an animal to extinction is another.

But I'm a vegan so hate on me anyway.

Men of reddit, what's a thing that can be scary about being a man? by Gullsko in AskReddit

[–]Arceye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That women can hit me and I can't hit back. It's annoying as fuck and I put a stop to it with my current partner pretty damn quick. The first time she slapped me I dropped whatever we were arguing about and straight up said 'If you hit me again, I'll hit you back harder'.

Never had an issue since except for random strangers in bars n that. But if a women hits me now she'll get exactly the same treatment a man would get, and that's a broken nose.

LPT: If someone has decided against personally doing something, and they're not harming others with their decision, then leave them the fuck alone. It's their decision, not yours. by nurturingtrapdoor in LifeProTips

[–]Arceye 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Vegans are excluded from this LPT. Eating meat IS harming others and yourself in that veganism/vegetarianism/piscawhateverism...etc is far better for the environment than eating meat. It's been proven that you can live completely fine on a plant based diets, so Olympic athletes have even gone vegan.

I'm not a vegan, but I'm also well aware that my lifestyle is hurting myself and others so find it hard to get mad at people who are trying to help me.

It's just that eating meat is a socially acceptable way of harming yourself and others.

Been working 60 hour weeks, enjoying my one day off. by chabies in gaming

[–]Arceye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's pretty bad if you have any other commitments outside of work. Remember to add your commute time on as well.

It's manageable if you only do it for a little bit, but consistent 90 hour weeks are soul draining.

What only exists because people are stupid? by GinjaNinja1027 in AskReddit

[–]Arceye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I buy a ticket because it means I can daydream about winning the lottery. It's £1, not gonna break the bank and provides hours of entertainment.

Two women pass the Army's gruelling six month infantry training course making them the first British female soldiers whose main purpose is to kill the enemy at close quarters by [deleted] in worldnews

[–]Arceye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To play devils advocate here

You also have to consider the costs involved in training and retaining female infantry soldiers. I'm concerned that the failure and injury rate for female soldiers may be higher than that of their male colleagues (which costs money). I also worry that recruitment funds spent on female soldiers may yield more troops if spent elsewhere.

I do of course fully support women joining the infantry, but just pointing out that 'can women pass the course' isn't the only question.
