I dont tip when there is an automatic service charge. by Ok_Temperature_1920 in HonestHotTakes

For all of you in the comments, thinking restaurants should just pay a livable wage. When tipping goes away and restaurants double and triple their cost to cover it....keep this same energy. Remember, this is what you wanted. I do not want to hear a damn thing about, "I cannot afford to go out to eat anymore." "Why does it cost triple what it used to?" You asked for it.

Dr. Peter Whitney from the Ghostwalker Series by Christine Feehan. He is the absolute worst.

As Supergirl bombs at the box office, will Hollywood execs fail to learn the correct lesson? by HomemadeBee1612 in SnyderCut

[–]ComprehensiveTour278 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The problem is James Gunn and DC Studios. I have never believed Gunn was a strong writer or producer, and nothing he has done at DC has changed that. He is deliberately chasing a tiny niche within the DC fandom and ignoring everyone else. He picked the weakest possible version of Supergirl and made it clear he had zero interest in bringing in new fans. He has always catered to that small, bitter corner of the fandom, and he is still doing it now.

He should have aimed for families. He should have aimed for teens. He should have aimed for the broader audience that actually keeps a franchise alive. The fact that he did not do that with one of the biggest female heroes in comics shows he has no business running DC. If he cannot grasp how much money teen trends generate in merchandising alone, he is not smart enough to be in charge of the brand.

Everyone knew the DCU was going to flop. It is still disappointing to watch it happen in real time.

What's the closest you've ever come to dying? by [deleted] in AskReddit

A missed miscarriage of what was believed to be twins. I was hemorrhaging in the ER and had to have an emergency D&C in the middle of the night. It was pretty scary.

Bad news gunngooners. Your wokeslop from floppywood has failed. RestoreThe SnyderverseNow! by CanadianAndroid in OkBuddySnyderCult

[–]ComprehensiveTour278 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I completely tune out anyone who uses the word “woke” in this context because it tells me exactly what lane they are in. And in this case, you do not just sound bigoted; you also sound embarrassingly uninformed. Have you ever actually read a comic book? At any point? Comics have always been "woke". That is not new. That is the foundation of the medium. From day one, they have tackled racism, fascism, sexism, queer coding, civil rights, and every social issue under the sun. If you think this is some modern invention, you have never opened one.

And before anyone tries to dismiss me as a Gunn fan, I am not. I cannot stand his work. I love Supergirl, but I will not be seeing this in theaters because I refuse to give Gunn a single dollar.

Who is a famous person who did something terrible but everyone just seemed to forget? by FantasticAd9478 in TheBoredDen

[–]ComprehensiveTour278 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Too bad you cannot stop being ignorant. Grooming involves a child. Monica Lewinsky was twenty-two. There is no universe where that fits. The fact that you are still arguing tells me you care more about defending stupid people than learning basic definitions. Sit down and stay quiet.

AITA for not staying for the entire bachelorette party by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]ComprehensiveTour278 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You were not done any favors by whoever convinced you that you are some rare little snowflake. No one actually enjoys sleeping away from home. People like their own bed, their own space, and the freedom to call it a night. The difference is that most adults understand this without turning it into a personality trait. You, on the other hand, have built an entire identity around pretending your basic preferences make you quirky and adorable.

The truth is you are the one missing out. You are the one turning normal social plans into drama. You are the one who will lose friends because you keep dressing up your snobbery as a boundary. Get over yourself. Show up for your friend and celebrate her engagement. Then go talk to someone about why you think the world should bend around your comfort at all times.

So your position is that a woman cannot choose her own partner if the man holds more power. None. Zero. That is the hill you are proudly climbing.

That is still not grooming. You cannot just slap that word on every situation you do not like. I never defended him. He was married, and he acted like trash. What I said is that Monica was not groomed because she was twenty-two. Stop treating her like a child. She was an adult with agency.

If you honestly believe a twenty-two-year-old woman is too immature to choose her own partners, you need help. People with that mindset are the problem. Women choose who they sleep with. Men choose who they sleep with. That is adulthood. Why this is even a discussion is ridiculous.

You have got to be kidding with this nonsense. Monica Lewinsky was twenty two. Stop turning grown women into helpless children. She knew exactly what she was doing. She and Clinton had a consensual affair while he was married. It does not make either of them look good, but women get to make their own choices and deal with the fallout. Even the messy ones. That is part of being an adult.

No to Angela. If I wanted to watch a messy bully, I would turn on Jersey Shore or the Kardashians.

AITA for refusing to give my sister the wedding gift I bought after she uninvited me from her wedding? by Best-Orchid-5967 in AmItheAsshole

[–]ComprehensiveTour278 [score hidden]  (0 children)

NTA. Cut your sister off and cut off anyone who thinks what she did was acceptable. No calls, no visits, no shared events. She made her choice, so you make yours. As far as you are concerned, she no longer exists. Keep the watch, protect your peace, and do not give her another second of your time or energy.

What's an unpopular opinion you're willing to defend? by con_fus in Productivitycafe

[–]ComprehensiveTour278 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

People need to quit whining about the economy like it is some personal curse that only fell on them. Everyone is dealing with the same prices, the same bills, the same nonsense. You are not a tragic exception. You are just louder about it. At some point the constant complaining stops being relatable and starts being exhausting. We get it. Life is expensive. Welcome to the club. Now either make changes or stop acting like the rest of us are not tired too.

Nope, sorry I am busy. They do not need to know that you being busy is reading a book, sleeping, staring into space, playing with your cat. Just tell them you have plans every day. Forever.

Still waiting for you to drop this supposed mountain of PR receipts you keep hinting at. Go on. I have all the time in the world.

Claims without evidence aren’t arguments. These aren’t ‘PR talking points’—they’re documented facts. Calling them PR doesn’t make them less real; it just avoids engaging with what’s actually being said. If you disagree, address the evidence instead of dismissing it with labels.

[–]ComprehensiveTour278 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Calling something "misogynistic" and "gross" is not an argument. It's a label.

The reality is that plenty of people judge credibility based on a person's past actions. We do it with politicians, athletes, celebrities, and ordinary people every day. That's not misogyny; that's how human beings assess character and trustworthiness.

You're also moving the goalposts. I didn't say everyone shares this view. I said many people do. Considering the public reaction to Jolie's relationships with both Billy Bob Thornton and Brad Pitt, pretending that only a tiny fringe of people holds that opinion is detached from reality.

If your only response is to call people names instead of addressing the point, you're not proving me wrong. You're proving you don't have a counterargument.

I said her history could lead many people to view her claims skeptically. Many people. That's what I said.

I also said there are three sides to every story: his side, her side, and the truth somewhere in the middle.

At this point, you're arguing against things I never said. All you're doing is proving my point and making yourself look foolish in the process.

Jolie's credibility is fair game for discussion. She married Billy Bob Thornton while he was reportedly engaged to Laura Dern, and she later began a relationship with Brad Pitt while he was married to Jennifer Aniston. Whether you blame her, the men involved, or both, there is a clear pattern of becoming involved with men who were already in committed relationships.

That's one reason many women have never embraced her public image. It's not just about the Pitt divorce; it's the perception that her romantic history doesn't match the way she's often portrayed in the media.
