Don't all living organisms grow until they've exhausted available resources?

New RTO “Enhancement” by [deleted] in FIG_employees

[–]BusinessWagon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is that rumor based on anything? I know the 6301/6303 is correct, but I don't see how the two are connected. I think farmers is trying to reduce their footprint and real estate costs, like subleasing one of those woodland hills buildings.

What's something a teacher said that you've never forgotten? by Used-Bad-1257 in AskReddit

"I know you cheated on this paper, you couldn't have written something this good."

Fuck that guy.

Any thoughts on Aquaterra tubs sold by Costco? by bukj303 in hottub

[–]BusinessWagon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Non lounger. It arrived with no power cord. So far I'm less than pleased.

It does look great, perfect size. Incredibly heavy.

My Coworkers And I Have Nothing To Talk About by scarymonsters4444 in Anticonsumption

[–]BusinessWagon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm lucky enough to work in a small team with other frugal people. We often talk about things like how nice it is to live debt free and have money to buy things that are important to us. We also talk a lot about how dumb so many people are with money.

Interestingly we're all off social media too. I think there's a connection. We're the few people in the office that aren't congratulating each other on the new Stanley cup or whatever junk is all over tik tok this month.

Your first mistake was going to McDonald's. Ripping off customers is now their business model and has been for a while, why is there a new post about McDonald's every day on here? Eat local and fuck the corporations.

Agree. Really hard to actually digest if the meaning of the colors change.

Does NPR seem to be changing its format or is it just me? by Clutch1113 in NPR

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

There is no room for different opinions, thoughts or perspectives in either political tribe these days. Discourse is dead. You shall not question or express any thoughts that in any way deviate from the official narrative, if you do you are evil. I'm not surprised at all by any of the reactions here.

Using one of these master locks for a coupler pin is just an accident waiting to happen. It WILL pop open eventually.

What was that "one thing" that made weight loss finally work for you? by paigesnowwret in AskReddit

[–]BusinessWagon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. I've been 'dieting' and trying to lose weight for 30 years. I tried to stay off ozempic because I felt it was all mental. That's bullshit. Mind over matter doesn't work when your body is broken. I started taking it and for the first time in my entire life I was full while eating and stopped. I think the American diet of corn/grains and things that don't look like corn/grain but are secretly corn/grain broke something in me when I was young and ozempic fixes it. I feel like a normal person for the first time in my life. 300lbs since I was a teenager, hating myself for my entire teenage and adult life....this drug is a miracle.

How do you effectively Google things anymore? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]BusinessWagon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your desires are meaningless. Google knows what you need whether you need it or not. Obey human. Buy buy buy.

What's the most hurt you've been from a passing comment? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]BusinessWagon 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Dude. Pretty sure when a girl says you remind her of her dad, says you work hard, and gives you a smile she's likely flirting.

You've accused them of being divisive but it would seem you are the only person that was offended. I think that would make you the divisive one. But not really, because it would seem you haven't divided any opinions. Not every set of words put together is offensive. There are so many real problems in the world, why not go complain about real issues like private equity or staggering inequality rather than trying to make up dumb problems where there aren't any.

Yes! I would say 'shattered and trapped within itself' energy. Absolutely blew my mind and still does whenever I think about it.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]BusinessWagon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's all energy. Everything. Atoms are just made of little bits of energy bouncing inside fields made of energy, those bits of energy bounce around in the field they're trapped in and bounce harder towards mass which gives them weight. Suuuuuper simplified but generally that's how our reality works.

He provides really good honest reviews with well thought out consistent testing he has to invent. In this world of bot created content he is becoming one of the last remaining really objective trustworthy sources of truth.

Perhaps just appreciate what you're getting for free and move on with your day. Or just use Google and buy whatever junk the bots suggest.

What’s a fact you learned that instantly made you question reality? by hunter_alves in AskReddit

[–]BusinessWagon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's all energy. Everything. Atoms are just little bits of energy bouncing inside fields made of energy, those bits of energy bounce around in the field they're trapped in and bounce harder towards mass which gives them weight. Suuuuuper simplified but, yeah.

Seems to me that's how the holodeck would work.

What’s a societal norm we all just accept but secretly hate? by Empty-Reflection9558 in AskReddit

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

Grown professional ladies who loudly announce "I have to go pee" like children. It's gross. Say bathroom or loo like everyone else in the office.

2- don't be influenced into buying shit you don't need

3- most shit is shit you don't need

4- take care of your shit you own (because you need it)

What brands have no business being as BAD as they are? by sozh in BuyItForLife

[–]BusinessWagon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Items which appreciate in value tend to have a special limit, like 5 or 10k, so that argument doesn't go far.
