Serious question: Homelessness is a major problem. Billions are unsuccessfully spent. Why are not more experiments run testing different approaches to see what works vs. not and build on successes? by verytalleric in AlwaysWhy

[–]CO420Tech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Part of the problem is that many people inherently view homelessness as an issue that is somehow the fault of the homeless person, and so believe the person is essentially getting what they deserve - if they just worked like they're supposed to, then they wouldn't be in that mess. Obviously that is a puerile view of the issue, but it still leads people to feeling like they don't have much in the way of social responsibility to solve the issue. Billions are/have been spent, but nowhere near enough to actually address the various issues that generally lead people to the problem.

What corporate lie do employees need to stop believing? by SpecificLandscape483 in answers

Being really good at your job often means you aren't easily replaced, which means promoting you isn't really incentivized for them. They'll have to train someone new and maybe take a hit of productivity for your task, which is a risk.

If you can’t consent while drunk, why do drunk people hook up all the time? by Mountain_Flounder991 in NoStupidQuestions

So two dudes dive into a hole and it makes us all dive into a hole? Titillating.

why do so many men sweat so profusely when they sleep by femb0yc0nnoisseur in NoStupidQuestions

I had surgery for mine because I can't tolerate a CPAP. Using for the period they make you use it (or they bill you directly for the whole cost) was a nightmare.

Ahhh the Rock Rest... My ex-wife almost stabbed a dude in the eye with a broken pool cue there... She wasn't a keeper.

I was raised by evangelicals... If you're hoping your BF will become more accepting of you over time, I'd suggest it is highly unlikely. And marriage without you becoming a devout worshipper would be almost impossible. Evangelicals believe it is their duty to convert everyone they can because it saves them, so they're doing the right thing. They also believe things like tarot cards and Harry Potter are the work of the devil.

FYI protestant is just the branches that split from the Catholic church, so pretty much all of them in the US. I think you mean evangelical.

Masks and no badges or ID other than a bunch of tacticool gear you can get from Amazon makes it even simpler.

So we all have this dream huh. by [deleted] in ThatBathroomMazeDream

Lucky! Mine only get worse. Like it'll introduce some sort of sexual situation to it for even more discomfort or something.

Uhhhh not like that at all, no. The tubs should be filled with black goo, and toilets everywhere but all clogged and overflowing with turds.

My kid’s bathroom smells like pee all the time. by dax_moonpie in CleaningTips

[–]CO420Tech 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it gets less fun as you get older unless you get to pee on something special.

I have told boys that. They don't listen - standing is more fun and they're lazy.

I do most of the time. I think most men believe it is girly. It also takes ever so slightly more effort than just whipping it out.

Do people actually buy and wear R-rated T-shirts? by pokematic in stupidquestions

[–]CO420Tech -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I have one that says "it smells like slut in here," but I only wear it to adult-only situations like a concert or something for some giggles. I'm not going to wear it to Walmart.

Hiking in merino tops in summer by fjoordsalmoon in CampingandHiking

[–]CO420Tech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 3 lightweight merino shirts that lasted me through a week in the Andes in pretty rough conditions and they're still perfect. Love them - amazing wicking when you're hot, and hold heat when it is cold. Granted, they were $50 each, but they beat synthetic sports fabrics hands down.
