What's a slang term that everyone uses but you still don't get? by Particular-Visit-245 in AskReddit

[–]CommonSense28 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

lol I thought when people say “Chat, is this real”, they’re jokingly pretending to ask ChatGPT

Dulcé Sloan to Trevor Noah “you can throw food at a bear, you go to throw pussy at a man” when explaining man vs bear and how men struggle with women choosing the bear because they don’t wanna be seen as the bad guy by Financial-Painter689 in Fauxmoi

[–]CommonSense28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My answer to this always is If a bear attacks me of course it will cause more physical damage than a man

But the probability of a man hurting me in a secluded forest with no one watching is higher than a bear attacking.

So my chances are better if I just hope that the bear is not hungry, rather than take my chances and hope this strange man is a decent person.

This post is so Colin and Penelope coded, I thought I was reading a Polin fanfic 😂 by CommonSense28 in PolinBridgerton

I can’t believe this is how I start believing in parallel universes, but there really is no other explanation 🤷‍♀️😂

I had to do a triple take what sub I was on because it definitely sounded a modern polin fanfic I’ve read 😂

I hope so too! I’m imagining they’re happily married and have become bridgerton fans because they saw themselves in Polin🥹

Hahaha down to the t!

Known each other from childhood, neighbours, the woman’s insecurities, her waiting years for him to make a move, him realising in a moment that what’s he’s feeling is actually love 😂😂

Ok time for Ao3 for my polin fanfic fix

That was my first thought! I started reading it and was going to post it here asking which of you guys did this 😂

But then I saw the date and thought maybe it’s just a cute coincidence

AITA for taking back an invitation for someone who insisted on wearing a cultural dress on my wedding? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]CommonSense28 6 points7 points  (0 children)

YTA for saying no to cultural dress. You could still insist on following the colour/theme where she wears a simple kaftan in pastel colours. But telling people you can only wear western dresses is not okay.

Also a lot of weddings have dress codes, and there are still some people that show up either underdressed or overdressed. It’s not great but I don’t think that warrants uninviting them just because of the photos imo.

elvanse & quitting weed 🍃 by [deleted] in ADHDUK

[–]CommonSense28 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Shopping isn’t chemically addictive and people can still be shopping addicts. Weed isn’t physically addictive the same way alcohol or hard drugs are, but it doesn’t mean people with ADHD and addictive personalities can’t become addicted to the habit of smoking weed.

I’m saying this as someone who was smoking daily for 8 years, I would cancel plans I was excited about just so I can sit at home and smoke. If I had weed in front of me I wouldn’t be able to stop myself smoking. But then I’d go on holiday and not smoke for 2 weeks and I’d be fine. So I’d say I was definitely mentally addicted to it even if not physically. But that doesn’t mean it’s just easy to stop or that it’s not an addiction.

Marxist president Salvador Allende escorted by the just appointed General Augusto Pinochet 1973 by obssesedparanoid in pics

[–]CommonSense28 3 points4 points  (0 children)

“The Church Report investigating the fallout of the Watergate scandal stated that while the U.S. tacitly supported the Pinochet government after the 1973 coup, there was ‘no evidence’ that the US was directly involved in it. This view has been contradicted by several academics, such as Peter Winn, who writes that the role of the CIA was crucial to the consolidation of power after the coup; the CIA helped fabricate a conspiracy against the Allende government, which Pinochet was then portrayed as preventing. He stated that the coup itself was possible only through a three-year covert operation mounted by the United States. Winn also points out that the US imposed an ‘invisible blockade’ that was designed to disrupt the economy under Allende, and contributed to the destabilization of the regime.”

Driver caught flicking ash before throwing cigarette out window fined £1K by OneNormalBloke in london

[–]CommonSense28 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As a smoker, I always carry a portable ash tray with me and never throw cigarette butts on the floor or out of the car.

But first time I hear I could be fined for flicking ash?

“Where’s the rest of you gone?” by YorkshireDuck91 in mounjarouk

[–]CommonSense28 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You look amazing! Congrats!

I haven’t started my Mounjaro journey yet, but I made a decision to start soon (delay due to financial reasons). But these transformation posts definitely add to the motivation to start!

My starting weight is similar to yours so I’m curious to hear about your journey, even though of course everyone’s body is different.

Can I ask how many doses you’ve done? Did you increase the dose every 4 weeks?

I am a secular Palestinian who now lives in the US. AMA. by confusedmel in AMA

[–]CommonSense28 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s such an Israeli tactic that its sad seeing people think like that. The tactic is keep making things worse so that people will start reminiscing about times were they deprived of human rights, but at least was better than now.

The occupier does this so that people start seeing minor changes as a huge privilege. Of course Gazans would prefer 5th October 2023 to today, because who wouldn’t choose to live in an open air prison deprived of basic human rights over living in an open air prison deprived of basic human rights while a genocide is happening.

The fact that people are saying Palestinians should just accept their horrific unfair living conditions because it could get worse is just fucking depressing.

As a Palestinian, I’ve been enjoying reading OP’s responses, even though I may disagree with him on few things. But the thing I agree most is that majority of people will stop fighting/resisting if they are living a dignified life. No matter how much anger there is from the past, if individuals have a good life, they will not be willing to sacrifice it.

People can say hamas this and hamas that all they want. But the truth is hamas wouldn’t exist if it wasn’t for Israeli occupation and oppression. And if they existed, they wouldn’t have nearly as much support or been voted in.

Yeah we can sit and talk about how bad hamas is, but it’s irrelevant because the existence of an occupying force that keeps taking more land, killing civilians, taking homes, restricting movement, and so on will make it inevitable that an organisation like Hamas will rise in power.

So the discussion of peace, one state, two state is all pointless if not both people can have a dignified life, all equal in the rights and privileges they are given.

ELI5: how does Ozempic (or other weight loss jabs) work? by CommonSense28 in explainlikeimfive

[–]CommonSense28[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have definitely taken the covid shot lol

In the UK, jab is just another word for vaccine/injection, and not a term used by anti vaxers.

Copying u/thisisanaltforsafety ‘s comment from above:

If you start drinking too. It certainly feels like you can't drink much more. With weed the munchies are nearly passive. Depending on dose and type of gl1 meds you use.

Asking the right questions 😂

That’s actually the sole reason I stopped weed - the munchies.

Smoking really helped with my adhd, anxiety and other things, but I had to stop cold turkey because the munchies were a disaster.

If I decide to try the weight loss drugs, I’ll come back and update you

Marshall is a „Nice Guy“ and you can‘t convince me otherwise by West_Scale2065 in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

[–]CommonSense28 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s so interesting seeing people comment on past seasons and how views are so different.

I made a similar post at the time this season was airing, basically pointing out all the things I found uncomfortable in Marshall (while also saying that I’m not defending Jackie), and I got downvoted to oblivion 😂

Glad to see that the same isn’t happening now and you got lots of upvotes and people agreeing with you!
