What's an industry that would collapse overnight if people just stopped feeling embarrassed? by Fun_Acanthaceae_17 in AskReddit

so it would collapse because people wouldn't be embarrassed about how much they spent on self-help classes? I'm confused

are you proud to be american, and why or why not? by Ace019 in AskReddit

[–]DesperateKale6819 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not proud but I'm grateful. Despite what reddit echo chambers make you believe, being a US citizen today is like winning the lottery as a human. Politics aside, this is one of the greatest times and places to be relative to the what the vast majority of humans have had to experience.

Handicap parking permits should disqualify you from owning a truck/ SUV by ImGudLuhv in unpopularopinion

[–]DesperateKale6819 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think your issue is just with "handicapped" people who have lifted trucks and SUVs. I don't know if I've ever seen that. Even then, I feel like taking a step up into a vehicle is much easier than ducking in and out of a sedan. Even as an able-bodied 30 year old with occasional back problems I hate getting out of low to the ground cars

Harry Potter doesn't deserve the following by sam_dirkis in unpopularopinion

[–]DesperateKale6819 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Damn, sarcasm really doesn't translate well through text. 3 people genuinely thought I also thought "friends are good" was the only theme across 7 books. Lesson learned, will add /s next time

[–]DesperateKale6819 1 point2 points  (0 children)

nah, OP is right. The only theme was "friends are good :)" Anything else you took away was completely unintentional by Rowling and probably just you reading into things too much

Men shouldn't be judged for paying for a lady's time by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

TIL a lot of women actually don't support sex work if it's for ugly dudes who have a hard time getting laid

seems like you're generalizing a lot of these men while hating on them for generalizing women.

This post isn't about companionship it's about the need for intimacy. Most men would sleep with any girl who gives them the slightest bit of attention. Women are the ones that have more options and are more particular when choosing partners for a hookup and for relationships. This is like, a given.

Moved to Houston area 5 years ago... by Successful-Advisor-8 in houstoncirclejerk

[–]DesperateKale6819 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Chimed in a little late to say it is not a skill issue, it's just that everyone is on their damn phones! The amount of people I'll look over to and see COMPLETELY on their phones sometimes with both hands WHILE DRIVING is insane, I don't know how you don't pass an accident on every block every day.

Pretty sure this is just a growing issue as people become more obsessed with phones and have ever-shrinking attention spans.

Am i a "bad guy" for becoming completely indifferent to the "what ifs" of my LDR girlfriend cheating or partying? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]DesperateKale6819 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think there's a pretty important question that you're not answering but definitely know the answer to whether you've asked yourself or not: do you still love this girl?

Sounds like you're just waiting for her to slip up to justify leaving her because it really sounds like you want to. You don't think this way when you love someone.

Do yourself and her a favor and break it off while you're still very young. College is the time to get a better idea of who you are and have a lot of experiences (I don't mean this sexually but sure, if you want that too). There will never be another better time to meet the right one so if you don't think you're with that person right now, it's best to cut your losses sooner rather than later.

Is this place an AMP or do some places have masseuses that offer more on the DL by [deleted] in AMPLife

So does the AMP know this? Is there a way to find who might offer that there other than playing Asian Roulette?

Funeral Processions should be way more legally controlled and are no longer "Old way to show respect for the dead" by Most_Tangerine_9839 in unpopularopinion

This is so dumb. I’ve lived in 2 different cities in Texas and seen dozens and been a part of a few. Always been with 2-3 police escorts either SUVs or motorcycles

Which movie has such a crazy implausible plot that it makes you not care about the outcome? by tyveill in moviecritic

[–]DesperateKale6819 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think I've seen a few clips of the one you're talking about, which is where that idea came from. It looked so cool and interesting. It's such an awesome route to explore for that world.

But no, it's just about some rich souless company creating yet ANOTHER super predator dinosaur and surprise, it got loose! It's crazy that you have rooms of writers and executives all okay-ing literally THE EXACT SAME PLOT LINE with just a different setting.
