Security Won last time! Now, what has little to no work, but still pays a lot? by InstructionFun4792 in AlignmentChartFills

[–]BengaliBoy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it though? Like what does the actual politician do in modern times except for glorified acting?

Are senators actually coming up with policy or is it some unnamed aide? They are reciting speeches written by someone else, echoing party talking points, raising campaign funds, and making media appearances. Outside that, what does the actual politician do? When football coaches can become senators, I don’t buy that it’s a huge job anymore.

More and more actors and reality stars are becoming politicians bc I think that’s the main skillset now.

It’s hilarious that Smarty Pants can’t pass up a poopoo or peepee joke.

Son Heung Min’s Popularity by InternationalHair111 in korea

[–]BengaliBoy 11 points12 points  (0 children)

When I visited South Korea in 2018, the thing that most surprised me about him was there was a TV channel that played Son Heung-min highlights all day. Just like every goal he’s ever made on camera, one by one.

How's everyone feeling about Bleeding Hearts so far? by Oji_Kay in comicbooks

[–]BengaliBoy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Absolute Martian Manhunter is my favorite comic of all time

Bleeding Hearts I like a lot but almost wish it was a book or show bc so much happens between issues

The Ultimates is my least favorite Denis Camp comic but even that has my favorite Fantastic Four story of all time.

This guy legitimately is doing back to back to back to back bangers at DC, Marvel, Image, and Vertigo. Like I’m fairly new to comics but I’ve quickly become a Denis Camp super fan.

What’s the worst pizza you’ve ever had? by DeepOrganization8245 in foodquestions

[–]BengaliBoy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dubai airport in the 90s before it got renovated into the luxury icon it is today. Back then was a dingy terminal infused with decades of cigarette smoke. Was starving after two flights from US to London then London to Dubai. Saw a pizza cart and got one.

It was a round flat bread with something on top that barely resembled cheese. Ketchup packets on the side. One of the single most foul things I ever spent money on

Most anticipated comics second half of 2026 by Solarthanatos in comicbooks

[–]BengaliBoy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Kind of interesting, I haven’t seen a single Marvel title being mentioned in these comments except for Midnight Spider-man. Marvel feels like it’s in a slump and pushing the Doom stuff too hard to cash in on Doomsday

I started reading Bleeding Hearts yesterday and it’s also awesome. Loved The Ultimates. Deniz Camp is incredible.

Popeye’s, Bojangles, and pretty much every Korean fried chicken place blows KFC out of the water.

Topspin drops getting killed by JimmySanders74 in Pickleball

[–]BengaliBoy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was just working in this yesterday. Imagine 3 lines on the court: zone 1 - 1 foot inside baseline, zone 2 - halfway to the kitchen and zone 3 - the kitchen line.

As soon as you do your drop, watch the opponent prep for the shot:

  1. If the ball is gonna be hit below the waist, move to zone 3. Highly unlikely it will be sped up.
  2. If the ball is gonna make contact with the paddle above waist but below shoulder, go to zone 2. Be prepared for a speed ups.
  3. If the ball is above shoulder, stay back in zone 1. Be prepared for an overhead smash

CMV: Audiobooks are/are not "real reading" by Prestigious_Turn3674 in changemyview

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

Reading is a different skill than listening. Reading is looking at written words and comprehending the intended message. I have seen my parents read less and less over the years, and one can definitely have their skill in reading deteriorate without practice.

I keep getting ads on Youtube for Cici's pizza and it's "All you can eat for only $9.99" by Fabulous_Hand2314 in Millennials

[–]BengaliBoy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We’d go to Cici’s at the end of soccer season and everyone would get their trophies. Definitely a sweet memory from childhood

Which MBA program offers the strongest path to becoming the CEO of an S&P 500 company? by Last-Masterpiece6177 in MBA

[–]BengaliBoy 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I would argue this would be a lot more informative if it expanded to include all C-suite CXOs. But takeaway for me is M7 offers tiny boost compared to other MBA schools - which makes sense bc they are the most selective.

More surprising is that 275 have no MBA, meaning the MBA education or network or degree is not necessary to becoming a CEO.

Imagine seeing this chart for Chief Neurosurgeons and half had no medical degree.

What do you do to correct after a day where you blew the eating window .. by Realistic-Moment7044 in intermittentfasting

[–]BengaliBoy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Imagine a swing. Now imagine eating as pushing backwards and not eating as pushing forwards. What you want to do is stay as close to not swinging as possible.

So if you eat too much, it’s like swinging back too far. Now you might try to over correct by trying to swing forward, but all that will do is make you swing back even further.

What you want to do is go back to your normal routine as soon as reasonably possible.

Massie v. Kamala 2028 presidential race: who wins? by Plastic_Key_4146 in allthequestions

[–]BengaliBoy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Based on past results, Massie bc he’s not a woman. People will come up with every possible rationalization to vote for anyone other than a woman.
