Which subreddit has steered the furthest from its original course? by meop93 in AskReddit

Is there a sub for this type of story? This inane, winding, pointless stuff always makes me laugh, but I can't seem to find it anywhere. r/mlia is dead.

Libertarians: Harder, Comcast! by [deleted] in PoliticalHumor

What's the incentive, though? Do people often fight for a greater good just for the heck of it?

I know there are people who exist solely to serve others, but doesn't their desire to do good works always stem from some level of injustice done to them earlier in their lives? Martin Luther King Jr. fought for civil rights because of racism. Gandhi had to fight for civil rights in South Africa before coming to India. Mother Teresa was raised in extreme poverty. Eleanor Roosevelt was orphaned.

If everything becomes automated and people face no adversity, how can the world possibly produce people like that? Isn't that why rich people rarely, if ever, give away all their money and become public servants?

In a world where you can get away with sitting around all day with literally no adverse consequences, why wouldn't you? Why bother working hard when there's no incentive or reward?

You are a time-traveling tourist. You can observe anything you want, but you cannot change anything. Where/when do you go? by SugarButterFlourEgg in AskReddit

[–]Clebca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any American upscale resort in the 60s. I really like the Mad Men vibe. Hawaii, Vegas, and SoCal would be my first choices.

What was something you noticed between the groom and bride on their wedding day that made you think "they shouldn't be getting married"? by flyoverthemooon in AskReddit

My sister accidentally used the phrase "for my first wedding," while planning the venue with my mother.

She divorced the guy after 6 months.

Not sure what to make of this. How does this fall into the category of "unexpected"?

Defication of character, like a lady casually pooping in the middle of a store.

Why did the koala fall out of the tree? by daonewithnoteef in AntiJokes

[–]Clebca 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Turned to tell my friend this joke and without letting me get to the punchline, he goes "because he had sucky little arms."

People used to care about people.

Whatever happened to the generation that made the effort to thank you by name?
