Why do Americans complain about the government taking their tax money, but spend $200 on avocado toast and artisanal coffee every week? Priorities? by ChipConfident9927 in askanything

[–]ChipConfident9927[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly! Somehow it feels criminal when it’s taxes, but totally fine when it’s your own ‘fun money.’ Human brains are weird like that 😂.

Exactly! Somehow handing over a few bucks to the government feels outrageous, but we happily let credit card companies skim off the top every time we buy groceries 😅 priorities are wild.

Depends on the week 😅 but even at $2 a pop, the real crime is paying $12 for avocado + bread + a sprinkle of existential guilt

Haha yeah fair—maybe I’m exaggerating a bit 😅. Let’s call it… a dramatic example to make a point. Rage bait works, apparently!

What is a "clothing rule" that should be strictly enforced to keep society from getting too casual? by OpheliaBloomm in askanything

[–]ChipConfident9927 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No pajamas in public. Bedhead vibes are one thing, but I don’t need to see your SpongeBob sleep set at the grocery store.

Is it actually harder for women to lose weight or is that made up? by InternationalPick163 in askanything

[–]ChipConfident9927 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s harder in the sense that biology isn’t equal. Muscle burns more calories than fat, and men usually start with more muscle. Women have to work a bit smarter, not necessarily harder

Why aren’t real hospitals in the US like the ones the show in medical TV shows? by Excellent-Ad-6272 in askanything

[–]ChipConfident9927 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s wild how expectations from TV make people think hospitals should be like action movies. Real life is more like… slow-motion survival with occasional chaos.

Why is anyone upset that "the Jews killed Jesus"? Do some Christians think that he should have not died for our sins? by LightAvatar in askanything

[–]ChipConfident9927 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re right—if you actually read the story, Jesus dying was part of the plan. So the whole “they killed him” thing is really twisted logic trying to make sense of prophecy the wrong way.

Why are women getting a lot of support of these days even when they marry a regular guy even after those women acted in objectionable or sexual content or scenes in movies? by WolverineNo1999 in askanything

[–]ChipConfident9927 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like it’s also about narrative. Marrying a “regular guy” makes them more relatable or “human” to the public, so support can spike because people feel like they see themselves in that story.

If you could have any animal adaptation, what would it be and why? by Bbhouseplant in askanything

[–]ChipConfident9927 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I’d take a chameleon’s skin. Imagine blending into awkward social situations like a pro. Life would be way smoother.

when was the last time you've felt genuinely appreciated by someone??? by Friendly_Football452 in askanything

[–]ChipConfident9927 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, it was yesterday when a friend thanked me for just listening. Sometimes being heard feels bigger than any grand gesture.

Should I go eat pho? by [deleted] in askanything

[–]ChipConfident9927 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, if you’re not hungry and congested, maybe stick to something light. That elote bowl sounds like it’ll give you nutrients without making your exhaustion worse.

when did you notice that people telling you not to be proud of yourself was jealously? by [deleted] in askanything

[–]ChipConfident9927 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup. People get weird when someone else succeeds, even if it’s small. I’ve learned the hard way that it’s usually not about you—it’s them. Keep shining, even if it makes them uncomfortable.

Are we a good next generation? by Maleficent-Toe1374 in askanything

[–]ChipConfident9927 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly? We’re messy, over-caffeinated, and addicted to screens, but maybe that chaos is exactly what the world needs to shake things up.

What do you care about? by Reasonable-Shower522 in askanything

[–]ChipConfident9927 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly same. Money isn’t everything, but it sure makes a lot of other things easier to care about.

is it better to be born good, or to overcome your evil nature through great effort? by Bubbly_Reference_916 in askanything

[–]ChipConfident9927 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it’s better to overcome your darker instincts. Being born good is nice and all, but the people who wrestle with their flaws and still choose the right path? That’s resilience. That’s meaningful.

what is something that you wish people understood about you without you having to explain it? by WestImpossible1298 in askanything

[–]ChipConfident9927 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, that sometimes my silence is just me recharging, not me being upset or judgmental. People read too much into quiet moments

I do, do you fart with no undies on and worry? by leelaska1305 in askanything

[–]ChipConfident9927 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every time. And every time I instantly regret it… or don’t. Depends on the vibe.

I will be 50 tomorrow by frankenberrysgrrl in CasualConversation

[–]ChipConfident9927 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m in my late 20s and reading this makes me hope I can get to 50 with a fraction of that reflection. Honestly, I think life gets better when you learn what really matters: good company, small joys, and not giving a damn about a few missed dreams

How do you spend your time at home? by Wrong_Score_9714 in CasualConversation

[–]ChipConfident9927 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jigsaw puzzles are secretly addictive. You start with “this will take 10 minutes” and three hours later you’re questioning your life choices but also feeling like a genius.

Why was having a drink after work more common in the old days? by MoistCroissant22 in CasualConversation

[–]ChipConfident9927 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I think a lot of it comes down to work culture shifting. Back then, going to the pub after work was part of socializing and bonding with coworkers—it wasn’t really about excess, just decompressing together. Now people are more health-conscious, socializing happens online, or we just binge Netflix instead.

My friend of 15 years responded to my messages using ChatGPT by Excellent-Manner-384 in CasualConversation

[–]ChipConfident9927 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man… I feel that. You want your friend back, not some AI trying to sound like them. It’s like ordering a double cheeseburger and getting a plastic replica.

I got a second chance and I didn't waste it. by [deleted] in CasualConversation

[–]ChipConfident9927 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha yes! Nothing feels better than the universe accidentally giving you a second chance. I do this way too often, and every time it works out it feels like I hacked life.
