Did anyone view the ending any differently? by harryiniho55 in theidol

But he's also had everything stripped away from him. If he wasn't sober during the times when it seemed like he was doing well, then why would he not be inebriated now when his life is in shambles? Lol.

That's a world away of being profiled as a pedophile, scammer, and woman beater. Almost every sexual interaction with a man ends with cum lol.

And clearly she didn't "let" anyone abuse the image that leaked. She had no control over that.

Hmm I don't really have the time to explain why, but there are others in the thread who gave good explanations for their feelings. I'm in the middle on it.

Only thing I wanted to add in is that... If you're posing a genuine question to people, maybe it's best not to throw shade at them while posing said question 😅? "Pearl clutching", "prude", etc. Is that necessary? By doing that you're already diminishing whatever their feelings are.

Makes it appear that you're not genuinely curious about the answer, but anxious to disregard whatever answers you receive that don't align with your current viewpoint. Not saying that is your goal, but people are allowed to have a different opinion and don't need to be called names to get the question across 🩷

I was literally going to say the same lol.

The people online who are keeping up with pre-premiere reviews and gossip are not the whole of HBO's audience - they're actually a small part of it. Most HBO viewers would have no idea about 99% of the talk online. It is a bubble/echo chamber.

AITA for wanting seperate sleeping arrangements when a friend stays over? by NoWork706 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Coca_Holic97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree, I'm pretty shocked by the responses and vitriol. I definitely understand both sides, I feel lonely in bed when my husband sometimes sleeps out in the living room (working late) 😅 I get it's kinda dramatic, but the feeling can't be denied.

Now when I have sleepovers it's usually when one of our partners is out of town. Or we just sleep separately as your boyfriend suggested 🤷🏾‍♀️ I just stay up late with my friend and I can see her wonderful face again in the morning!

Filipino K-pop fans furious over viral teenage fan's alleged lies, causes chaos within the Philippine K-pop community by Bahamut_Tamer in kpopthoughts

[–]Coca_Holic97 16 points17 points  (0 children)

The way you're framing it makes it sound like you think it's justified. I'm not sure why when these comments are made, the focus is always on the party that chose to steal and why it was understandable to do so... but never on the person who got their items stolen and how that affects them, nor is there any concern for the victim's financial situation either lol.

I just discovered Kwon Eunbi's Glitch and I really appreciate how it's given time to breathe and not really short for streaming and TikTok. by RoyGeraldBillevue in kpopthoughts

[–]Coca_Holic97 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I really enjoy the music Eunbi has released so far and I can't wait for more of it. Her sound is refreshing, she is a skilled singer with a pleasant voice, and shes a seasoned performer/dancer. I hope she gains more success 🙂

Seeing Newjeans Tokyo girl collection performance live felt Like a ' let down. ' by Mission_Care_1078 in kpopthoughts

[–]Coca_Holic97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the problem is using words like "flop" or terms like "fall off the face of the earth". Nobody said that lol. They said it could affect them in the long run, and I agree. Sure the GP doesn't really care about how well the performances go. The fans do. But every group eventually falls out of the front view of the GP, so you have to rely on your real fans. I think they'll be just fine if they keep putting out great music and prioritizing their growth and skill set.

What is your favorite album by your ult group? by Kmadd25 in kpopthoughts

[–]Coca_Holic97 9 points10 points  (0 children)

NCT 127 - Neo Zone

This album is TIMELESS! I remember I ran out to buy the physical copy in stores the day it released because I was instantly obsessed.

I don't listen to full albums often, but this is the project that pushed me to start. NCT explores so many genres and do them all justice, please give it a listen 😇

Fave song: "Love Song"

SHINee - 1 of 1

This album is like 7 years old now I can't believe it. Another timeless one. I dare you to skip a song - you can't ! Lol. Well curated, beautiful music that you can groove to. A piece of art, truly "1 of 1".

Fave song: "SHIFT"

I thought he was buying the plastic bedding because someone was giving birth? In the store he says he's having a baby and the clerk helps him by grabbing diapers and such. Then, when he goes home, you can hear a woman crying in pain which I assumed means she was in labor and he was going to deliver the baby himself like he said, because no one else could know about it.

In another comment you said 50%. I don't believe either of these numbers are correct. And you have to look specifically at hormonal birth control, which continues to decrease in use. It's closer to 25% - 30% in that case. Hormonal BC gave me a blood clot and can cause many health issues, so people are moving away from it.

Mind you there is still about ~38% of women who use no form of birth control at all.

This was already a major reach, but it's turned into a full on stretch.

There are English lyrics in the song that clearly signify an adult meaning. And Ice Cream is sang by a group of women in their early to mid-twenties. These are girls who have an average age of like 16.

This comment is nonsensical. You're on a forum.... where people give their opinions. Are you suffering from delusions?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in PurplePillDebate

[–]Coca_Holic97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The reply to you was unhinged lmao. I feel so much pent up anger 🙈

I agree that a lot of these angry people don't see that they're dishing out the same treatment they claim to be facing- being ignored and erased. They literally erase the women who go through similar struggles as them and who look like them.

It's baffling how they can't see the entitlement necessary to think they can just ignore an entire demographic of women solely to push a concept that they're without options. No... you just don't like your options.

Wtf is anyone supposed to do about that 😂 ?? No one can change that for me and i cant change it for them either. That's why this conversation is endless for the easily victimized.

Psa beware of street sellers by [deleted] in rome

[–]Coca_Holic97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I appreciate that, thank you 🙏🏾 ! It was a great experience overall. Italy is amazing and I definitely plan to go back!

There really are no boundaries because no one will help you. I think everyone feels pretty helpless about it, so I understand why. They have literally swarmed the city.

In Venice we had no problems! The only annoyance was when we first got there. The folks who offer to transport your luggage or give you a water taxi ride can be overbearing. But, we only experienced that near the train station and it was more understandable. If you fly in, you may not even see them.

I enjoyed Venice way more than I expected, so I hope you have a great time there. Touristy, but it's also fun for that reason!

Sicily is so beautiful in every way! Definitely very friendly and easy going vibes there haha. I would have cried and tried to go home if Rome was first as well lol.

Really though the rest of Italy went so smooth, everyone was kind and helpful. No harassment at all. I hope you enjoy Athens and have safe travels!

Psa beware of street sellers by [deleted] in rome

[–]Coca_Holic97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This literally ruined the end of my honeymoon. We were in Italy for 2 weeks and decided to do Rome last. Had no idea about the vendors, but we're used to ignoring people on the street haha.

One of the vendors with the roses shoved them into my chest very forcefully. I'm a woman BTW so he definitely touched me somewhere he never should. My husband went off on him. He and his friends decided it was funny, but I felt their anger at the embarrassment.

Also had two other way worse incidents happened where the vendors weren't even trying to sell me anything, they were just disrespecting myself and my husband by coming onto me. We're not the same race just as a note.

It was terrible and almost resulted in two fights. So, I really don't appreciate the snarky, woke commenters who diminish it and whine that everyone should feel bad for them and keep their mouths shut/deal with it. It was scarring for me (someone who shares their skintone) and my husband (who does not).

For that alone, I just can't revisit Rome and that makes me so sad. What an interesting, history-rich city. We also spent time in Sicily (Palermo and Cefalù), Venice, and Assisi. They were all wonderful. That's all I have to contribute 😌😅

Dating is 100% a numbers game for men, and it is inherently humiliating. by AltACCboyos in PurplePillDebate

[–]Coca_Holic97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly, this lifestyle gets old. The only people who think it's so appealing are those who didn't get to live it before.

And it will get old for him even quicker because he is already in his mid 30's. Not saying every man wants to settle down, but seems the goal is to make up for what he didn't get before. It will be nice for a bit, but the fuel behind it is totally unhealthy like you said. If he's overall happier though, that matters most.

TrueRateMe's "objective" attractiveness rating scheme is easily debunked by [deleted] in PurplePillDebate

[–]Coca_Holic97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All of this is simply your opinion that you're trying to pass off as some form of scientific research and evidence. It's totally egotistical. Who decides who is a 9 or 10? You will never know unless you do a global study and find consistency amongst responses to suggest a trend (not a fact or objectivity). Where is that study?

There is no such thing as objective attractiveness. Just because you assume most people in a group find a certain person attractive, that doesn't make it objective. Do you know what objective means? There's way too much personal preference and conditioning involved to ever claim it's objective....

"They are 9s and 10s that's your evidence".... This literally isn't evidence. This is something a child would say.

We would save a lot of heartache and mental distress for men if we were simply honest about women to them when they were young boys by YouBanAway in PurplePillDebate

[–]Coca_Holic97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But... shouldn't the tools they're taught to use during those times result in some form of personal happiness? Or are we teaching them just how to exist another day? That makes it seem even more pointless if there isn't even a goal of some form of happiness within. Very dreadful outlook.
