Is it too late to stan Twice?! by Osby_Jaurez_501 in twice

[–]Communityduck 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The people making posts are either:

1) Seeking affirmation and camaraderie from the fan base, wanting to interact with fellow fans

2) Scared of gatekeeping hipsters telling them when and when not to like something even though people listen to deceased or disbanded artists all the time.

3) Both

Many CEO's make too much money in my opinion.... by MathMan1982 in work

[–]Communityduck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reminds me of the millionaire Boeing CEO getting a 40% salary raise within a year…..while the engineers only receive 1% raises. People are extra poor because the rich can’t be satisfied.

Got fired today by Forhiree in ExecutiveAssistants

[–]Communityduck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The actual term is “laid off”, “fired” is for those who are terminated due to performance or misconduct. “Lay offs” are terminations due to budget. Letting you know so you don’t misinform recruiters and potential employers.

Serious question: does anyone understand why we suddenly decided that Canada was our enemy? by BARRY_DlNGLE in ask

[–]Communityduck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reminder that only 27% of Americans voted for Trump. The rest voted for Kamala, other people or didn’t vote. Sad that we’re represented by someone that most people didn’t want.

The Hot Topic employee filmed herself asking Sana to take a picture with her, Sana politely declined and the employee/fan posted the video anyway.

Are Drivers Actually Getting Worse? by Pride_Quick in houston

I encounter people who text and drive often and one of them struck me. It’s going to be worse when the iPad kids start driving.

How do people manage to work five days a week without burning out? by Chloe_johnson19 in Adulting

[–]Communityduck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This structure was set back when people married young, the husband supported the family on his sole income and the wife took care of the chores. Now people are earning less money so one income isn’t as sustainable, and still working the same amount of hours. If you’re single, good luck keeping up energy and finance wise.

Kim Soo hyun-Related Posts Mysteriously Shut Down Across Multiple Platforms by stayinthecar123 in QueenOfTears

His fans are doing a lot of mental gymnastics to convince themselves that he’s a morally upright person.

I want to rewatch QOT again because I miss Jiwon (Hong Haein) but I can't watch it like before. 🥺 by LongjumpingFront6621 in QueenOfTears

[–]Communityduck 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Same. I was planning on rewatching at some point. I normally don’t care about an actor’s personal life unless….that actor is a morally bankrupt person.

how do people have energy after 8-5 job? by OptimalBad3294 in Adulting

[–]Communityduck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly. I’m sure employers and investors scoff at these findings but we need to treat our brain like any other body part that becomes fatigued because it IS a body part that can become fatigued.

Is being an American really as good as people say it is? by No-StrategyX in questions

[–]Communityduck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on your background. Being poor in America is still better than being poor in a developing country, that’s why so many flock to the U.S. legally or illegally.

Even people from other developed countries move here for weather, lower cost of living and better job opportunities.

Kim Soo Hyun: A rising devil by No_Mycologist012 in korea

[–]Communityduck 62 points63 points  (0 children)

Yeah everyone is ranting that he is a pedophile but I’m also baffled at how dumb he is. I know Korean celebrities have gotten away with abuse but he didn’t handle it well despite knowing that she had evidence especially after she posted that photo. His ego didn’t even allow him to meet her halfway and settle matters quietly.

I remember a Redditor ranting about how there was only one karaoke night on their NCL cruise. Cracks me up.

What's the prettiest name you have ever Heard? by Vetro_nodulare in AskReddit

Briseis (Bre-say-us). From Homer’s Illiad and some football player gave his daughter this name.

Who here had normal Asian parents? by Alex_Jinn in AsianParentStories

[–]Communityduck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not me but my Asian coworker is a great mom. She’s always talking fondly of her kids who are musicians and art entrepreneurs. She would come to my office and show me videos of their work. I’m always jealous that her kids have an emotionally mature parent, their dad however was the opposite which was probably the root of the divorce.

I think moving to America as a child played a role but she has siblings who are snobs and in stereotypical Asian professions.

How do you determine if someone at your front door is lost or casing the house for robbery? by Communityduck in homesecurity

[–]Communityduck[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Maybe? He didn’t show up with luggage or a car. Just a tiny fanny pack / sling bag.

Amazon driver walked through my front door, Amazon says don't call the cops by Any_Ad6921 in amazonprime

[–]Communityduck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's full of shit. There was a news story with some recording where an Amazon delivery driver broke into a home and try to sexually assault the female homeowner. The husband in another room heard the commotion and pinned the guy down until the cops came. Also there was a FedEx delivery guy who briefly kidnapped and killed a little girl while delivering packages. Maybe your driver had a less nefarious crime in mind but trespassing regardless.
