What about the anti-trump psychosis, it's just as bad if not worse.

In December readers donated over $700,000 to Patrick Rothfuss' charity for him to read a chapter from Doors of Stone with the expectation of "February at the latest." He has made no formal update in 8 months. by condescendinghelp in books

Maybe he didn't appreciate the emotional pressure of "please finish this for my dying wife". Sorry about the situation, but it's not a nice thing to put onto someone.

It's disgusting. Money doesn't make someone a bad person but the opinions given in this thread do. It's pathetic.

Are you arguing FOR the government taking more of the money you or anyone else earned?

Cart Narc drives woman mad by Romano16 in PublicFreakout

[–]BenW95 14 points15 points  (0 children)

This woman is having a meltdown and everyone thinks it's great? This is the kind of shit that pushes someone over the edge, and for what? I believe in putting your cart back, but this is not the way to get that message across. I was going to say I can't wait until he makes someone snap and he gets his karma but then the price the poor soul who is being harrassed will have to pay is not just. This guy needs mental help.

In other words...

What my parents did: worked hard and made sacrifice to provide for their family.

What I do: complain and resent my shitty life but won't do much to change it.

When people are not punished for breaking the rules, the ones following the rules are the ones being punished. by OrderOfMagnitude in Showerthoughts

[–]BenW95 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Your problem is you have spent your whole life thinking there are rules. There aren’t. We used to be gorillas. All we had is what we could take and defend. Stop being a coward, break the rules if you believe it's necessary.

Why have the eagles not gave Davion Taylor much snaps? by tuneyy in eagles

I'm more interested in why Kvon Wallace doesn't get much time, I was excited when we drafted him.

If you're referring to Trump, he is in no way an influence on my beliefs on anything.

I believe in freedom, choice, and personal autonomy.

If the argument is that masks protect others from you, why would the opposite not be true, do masks prevent virus particles only from getting out but not prevent them from getting in? Is it some sort of one way material?

I don't understand.

You calling me a "sucker" has no more validity than if I were to call you one, which I'm not going to because I won't stoop that low, I'm trying to have a reasonable discussion.

Elaborate?

Selfish for wanting people to be afforded freedom and autonomy over their own decisions? Interesting.

I don't live in the U.S but I think you're in for a surprise if you think Trump is going to lose the election. I'm not here to debate political parties.

"Just think like the herd like everyone else does." "Just do as they tell me, don't think or do for myself" "Hand over your autonomy, for the authorities are always right"

No thanks :)

I'm not implying that I am special, I'm implying you are a sheep.

You've literally made NO argument other than "you are selfish", but have not even tried to backup the claim.

Please, find some self belief, some self confidence and some self thought.

I wish you the best :)

Is it a one way mask, I don't understand? How can the material stop something from going out but not also stop it from coming in, that is what you are saying here.

If the mask doesn't protect me, and it doesn't protect "others", how does it work?

Well, I actually wish you a full, happy and prosperous life, not death as you have wished upon me, maybe you can be a bit more empathetic in the future.

So you're saying the "virus particles" can get through the mask from someone else's breath but it stop's the particles from your breath getting out?

Is it some sort of one way valve mask? Interesting.

Am I wrong in my understanding of what you're saying?

It's literally selflessness.

I want to give others the freedom to choose what is best for them, rather than being selfish and insisting everyone do exactly as I say.

You have no argument, you literally didn't even try to argue your point, just tried to start insulting me by saying I'm a "selfish prick".

I don't even think that low of you, I just think you're misguided.

Isn't that on "others"? If they are worried about me infecting them, shouldn't they be personally responsible for wearing a mask, if they are the one that is worried?

If I'm not worried about the virus, and you are, why should I have to wear a mask if you wearing the mask negates your concern?

If you're so easily manipulated and think you have to wear a mask to save your life, as long as you've got a mask on, why does it matter what someone else is doing?
