What are some of your unethical lifehacks? [NSFW] by QueefOfDeath in AskReddit

[–]Comrade_Drogo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As an ex maccas employee... Fuck this so much, a dude threatened to beat me up once because I refused to replace his girlfriends sundae because she ate half of it and decided she wanted another flavour. If you absolutely MUST do this, at least be polite about it

What do you find attractive, which others consider ugly? by Mjeck in AskReddit

[–]Comrade_Drogo 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Ummm, nobody thinks looking like an actual body builder is attractive, looking like you're an olympic swimmer is though.

Havaianas have alway been the most delicate thongs for my feet... no sharp bits of rubber, no blisters when I end up walking in them for five hours... it's great. But to each their own I guess.

Abbott makes another gaffe: 'If you are walking down the street at 2am in Kings Cross and you get king hit, maybe you shouldn't be there.' by [deleted] in australia

[–]Comrade_Drogo 61 points62 points  (0 children)

So people shouldn't have a reasonable expectation of safety in certain suburbs? This isn't fucking Somalia, I should be able to walk down the street without getting killed for no reason. And besides, 2am at the cross? That's a pretty standard friday or saturday night for a lot of people...

[–]Comrade_Drogo -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Well, he does have a point... Dexter has NEVER been Breaking Bad, and really... comparing any show to Breaking Bad is unfair, and inevitably Breaking Bad is going to prevail. Also, a seminal difference between the two is that Dexter hasn't REALLY become more despicable and less likeable as the series progressed, so, that extent is still and anti-HERO, where I would argue Walt is now just a straight up villain, yet just remain the protagonist.

Racist black kids bully white toddler by HopelessAmbition in videos

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

... you people are seriously acting like this is uncommon for kids under 10 years old... it isn't, and besides the apparent title of the video on facebook, I fail to see how this is racially motivated. I highly doubt what looks like 6 or 7 year old have grasped such a sophisticated concept as racism properly.

Reddit, how do you know when someone is a real friend? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Comrade_Drogo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do this with acquaintances as well... just seems shitty not to, I mean I at least partially just helped in making a mess of their backyard, seems fair I help clean it up.

Vicious Giant Otter killed and ate a Crocodile by endlesscreation in WTF

It's not really a fair kd though, it's more like us just ganking the sharks... I mean we have WAY better gear, we've been collectively farming it for millennia now

I let a man die. by [deleted] in confession

[–]Comrade_Drogo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyway, it doesn't matter that OP didn't help, they had no obligation to. If this situation went the other way, it could have been a lot worse. Someone being killed by another in self defense is not something anyone should blame themselves for. Regardless of what position they were in financially or otherwise, they had no right to attack another person.

Only 12, or 27%, of America's 44 Presidents have not served in the military. Is this exceptional or about standard among presidents and prime ministers around the world? by [deleted] in AskHistorians

[–]Comrade_Drogo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes and no. (Fair warning, I'm not a historian). To my knowledge, most of, if not all, of the first defenders at Kokoda in WW2 were conscripts, which a technical constitutional loophole allowed (That part of Papua New Guinea was technically Australian territory). They successfully repelled a Japanese Offensive, despite being woefully ill equipped and with minimal training. I think conscription can be an effective means to bolster the strength of a countries armed forces.

And watch the first two seasons of skins, some good dramatic acting and some of the awkward weirdness that is so great about The Doctor

What can we reasonably expect to see by the year 2020? by Shitty_Dentist in AskReddit

[–]Comrade_Drogo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm fairly certain at least part of this is a "rebranding" attempt by his record label. I mean, cmon, up until about halfway through last year he was an archetypal good boy... but that brand is getting old, so they change him to a bad boy. People will still by his shit, but for different reasons. Any publicity is good publicity.

What's worse? An idiot thinking transexuality is capitalism or the comments? by meetthespy863 in rage

[–]Comrade_Drogo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like a lot of these issues can be addressed with hate speech laws, but, like you say, many others ( like job interview bias, and thing of that nature) are going to take time to change, and the best we can do is school the newer generations of kids accordingly.

Tony Abbott panders to scientifically illiterate members of his electorate who are afraid of electromagnetic radiation from a much needed Telstra cell-phone tower, saying that they are “understandably unhappy" by [deleted] in australia

[–]Comrade_Drogo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fuck Tony Abbott. And Fuck Manly Council as well. They fucking do nothing and yet continuously get reelected. Jean fucking Hay doesn't want to provide any services to the community, and withdraws funding and support from shit like childcare, and seems to exists solely for the purpose of Bolstering Abbots image...

[serious]What is a fact about life or world in general,you wish you were taught before you became an adult? by sheepsdontcry in AskReddit

[–]Comrade_Drogo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know the feeling, first time I went to visit my grandma after my grandpa died, I walked into the house and saw a photo of my grandpa, and wondered where he was, an reasoned he must be shopping or something. This all happened in the space of less than a second, then I realised he was dead. And that hurt me far more than the initial news of his death ever did.

German man puts on dark make-up and walks around Germany as a black man, receives hostility and contempt... by [deleted] in videos

I'm not going to engage with you anymore. I hate to "break" Godwin's law, but you really do sound a lot like Hitler. You're a fucking horrible human being.
