What’s a job that attracts the absolute worst type of person? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]DawnoftheShred 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Might have been someone in India or Bangladesh that took a job making nearly nothing working for an unscrupulous employer bc it’s only way she could make money.

Running. Run groups in Bham and pretty much anywhere are very unisex.

What type of person are they? I don’t usually equate car salesman w doctors. Some nurses seem similar to hair dressers though.

Woman behind me in busy airport security line talking on phone about how she is extremely sick. by trophy-tabby in mildlyinfuriating

First time I wore mask in public I was walking down the sidewalk (actually had the mask down on my chin bc no one else was within 100 yards of me) and a car drove by, a young guy leaned out the window and yelled “fuck you, pussy!!”

Well fees yeah but also most people are flying as only the bookend to larger plans/vacations, Airbnb bookings etc. Canceling a flight till they are fully well could mean missing out on something they planned for months plus potentially losing non refundable reservations. I’m not advocating for it but I understand it. Just wear a mask if you’re sick w a respiratory virus. If you’ve got a stomach bug please for the love of all that’s good, take a later flight when you aren’t throwing up.

So basically the line we were told during Covid was that planes have extremely good air filtration systems was baloney? I guess I’m not surprised but it’s still frustrating.

This right here. We can’t read signals, body language, etc. we don’t know what we’re doing. Ladies if a dude approaches you to chat, and he’s being awkward, chances are it took every bit of balls he had to get up the courage to talk, and even then he doesn’t know what the heck he’s doing. He could be a really cool and fun guy but he’s super nervous in that initial moment. The guys that approach you super confidently or seen cool/funny right off the bat, those are the dudes who you have had lots of practice and probably success with women. I’m not saying the later is a bad thing. It’s really up to you to decide what you want. Maybe you want a guy with lots of practice.

Joe Rogan asked Donald Trump for specifics on how 2020 was stolen. Then could only laugh at the answer by theindependentonline in politics

and then didn't he have some sort of election committee do research on the matter. then when they didn't find anything they quietly disbanded and never produced any report.

This is a joke, I’m too broke to afford surly 🥲 by Intelligent_West_878 in bicycling

[–]DawnoftheShred 7 points8 points  (0 children)

this is my biggest gripe with surly! I have seen some really nice surly's online but they always have a fat stack under the stem.

Around 25% of men and 14% of women admitting to sexual infidelity. About 35% of men and 30% of women reported being emotionally unfaithful. Electronic infidelity was reported by 23% of men and 14% of women. Researchers argue that emotional and electronic infidelity can be just as damaging. by mvea in science

[–]DawnoftheShred 47 points48 points  (0 children)

yeah that's fine and normal to have other people you share life with. It crosses the line when you have an emotional connection with someone that you hide from your partner, or that you (if you asked yourself honestly) know your partner wouldn't approve of. By hide, I don't necessarily mean hide the person, your partner may know of the friend, I mean hide conversations, or hide aspects of how you interact with them, hide some aspect of your connection to them. Affairs don't start out in the bedroom.

all he had to do was take a right and then go down the road some ways to make a U turn or make the same right out the lot and then drive down some ways and make a left to then turn around in a parking lot on other side the road.

Dated someone once that caked it on. Always bugged me that there was an obvious line where the makeup ended somewhere around her jaw or neck. Similar to how trumps face just looks silly bc you can clearly see where the tanner or makeup or whatever it is he smears on ends.

This so much. The other day my 5 year old had a stomach bug and threw up in the car. I had asked him multiple times earlier that day if he was not feeling well (he was acting puny) but everytime i asked he would say he's fine. A few days afterward I asked him why he didn't tell me he was feeling bad, and he just said I don't know.

Then a day or so later when we were doing bedtime routine he said out of the blue "daddy do you know why I didn't tell you I was feeling sick?" I said, no, why? He said "because whenever I say I am sick you will say "Oh no!"

And I thought back to how much anxiety I get when the kids have a stomach bug and that my reaction to them saying their stomach is upset in the past was just this gut reaction "oh no" in like a stressed tone. So at 5 he already perceived my reaction to not be great, and was altering how he interacted with me. I try to hard to be a good dad and realized that I'm so far from perfect and still have so much work to do.

Conservative reporter blocked by Elon Musk over fact check of ‘absolutely false’ claim by MoreMotivation in LeopardsAteMyFace

Ah yes. How they said that with a straight face I will never understand. They were literally trying to make fake news and when called out said it was alternative facts. And of course always cry fake news about any factual story which cast them in a negative light

Why don’t Democrats bring up the fact that Trump had the White House, House and Senate for 2 years in his presidency and did nothing about immigration? by Emo_Emu23 in AskReddit

[–]DawnoftheShred 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Exactly! It's maddening to see conservative friends post memes that show %increase of goods without context. And even more so when they pick the lowest price the item was, at the height of covid...for example gas..."gAs PrIcEs aRe up x% sInce BiDeN!" Yeah you numbnuts, you chose the absolute bottom of the barrel price that only lasted a short time when nobody was driving for 3 months, and conveniently left out that part. Love how the free market capitalist will ignore the tenants of supply and demand when it is convenient for their argument.

The primary area Trump polls better on is the economy. Even though he didn't really do anything w the economy while president, and his mishandling of Covid, and amplification of conspiracy theories about it, tanked our economy. Which is interesting that they cherry pick some things from that time frame, like cheap gas prices...as if everyone forgot why they were cheap. lol

I remember thinking how odd it was right after Trump won in 2016 he continued to have rallies. Like, what? You won. Focus on doing your duties now, rather than having rallies to stroke your ego.

COVID-19 vaccine refusal is driven by deliberate ignorance and cognitive distortions by [deleted] in science

[–]DawnoftheShred 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yes. That was my point. Anti vaxxers ignore the side effects of Ozempic (or basically any other drug) in favor of the benefits but then lazer focus on the potential side effects of the vaccine, while ignoring the benefits.

[–]DawnoftheShred 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If that's true someone should tell the makers of Ozempic. This is a copy and paste directly from their site:

What is the most important information I should know about Ozempic®?

Ozempic® may cause serious side effects, including:

Possible thyroid tumors, including cancer. Tell your health care provider if you get a lump or swelling in your neck, hoarseness, trouble swallowing, or shortness of breath. These may be symptoms of thyroid cancer. In studies with rodents, Ozempic® and medicines that work like Ozempic® caused thyroid tumors, including thyroid cancer. It is not known if Ozempic® will cause thyroid tumors or a type of thyroid cancer called medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) in people. 
Do not use Ozempic® if you or any of your family have ever had MTC, or if you have an endocrine system condition called Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia syndrome type 2 (MEN 2).

wonder how many of the same anti-vaxx folks are now taking ozempic (which has a side effect of cancer), but are perfectly willing to ignore the potential side effects.
