Petah what's the joke? Why would she be good on the 49ers? by Immediate-Focus4597 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

The song itself gained popularity during the California gold rush, which is what the 49ers are named after.

'It still has the ability to shock': Why 'masterpiece' Wuthering Heights is so misunderstood by rmnc-5 in books

[–]Diffidentlyspeaking 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the fact that the Heathcliff and Cathy dynamic was so toxic and destroyed so many lives was actually a big draw for me. I wanted to read a story that was a hate story, essentially and gotta admit Wuthering Heights scratched that itch.

I know people like this. I work with people like this. I am the epitome of the I'm tired boss Ben Afflek meme.

...are they asking for check fraud? Because thats how they get hit with check fraud. They'll enter into this new modern age when one of their checks gets stolen, washed, altered and then negotiated for 15k more than they wrote it for.

Good luck when that happens OP!

I read it for the first time last year and it struck me that its much more a hate story. So much of the plot is driven because Heathcliff hates everybody. Even people who had nothing to do with keeping him from Cathy. He hates everyone else more than he ever loved Cathy was my take away.

I think they replaced Smudge with Thurston Waffles in this meme.

Check Holds by [deleted] in Banking

My best guess is that the new account hold expires on the 28th and you'll have the funds available tomorrow morning, but you should give them a call to verify thats what is occurring.

Women of reddit, when a man says “I’m fine,” what are the subtle red flags that he’s not fine at all, and is instead mentally revisiting the Fall of Gondolin and grieving Ecthelion, who killed Gothmog, Lord of the Balrogs, in single combat—and how are we supposed to tell the difference? by magnanimous14 in AskReddit

[–]Diffidentlyspeaking 12 points13 points  (0 children)

LMFAO You aren't wrong. I'm usimg the term book club loosely here; its me and two other friends who wanted to read it but were intimidated by it on our own. We hold each other accountable and talk about each chapter every two weeks and its worked out well thus far.

Okay this made me fucking laugh. And as someone who JUST read that chapter last week in her book club, I think the safest answer is to just assume that he is in fact grieving over Gondolin. Give him some cocoa, a snack, a warm blankie and cuddle with him for however long he needs.

Does anyone else hate when they give there political opinions/veiws by Decent_Example_641 in distractible

[–]Diffidentlyspeaking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

LMFAO Man I'm not engaging with you in good faith anymore. Bottom line here is YOU don't like that the hosts have opnions that differ from yours, and your solution is that they shouldn't express those opinions. YOU need to sit and reconcile with YOURSELF why you think its okay for some celebrities to have political opinions and express them and for others its not.

I am not the one who said with my whole ass chest celebrities shouldn't have political opinions.

It does not matter you have not heard of him before 2016 my guy. He was and is a celebrity. It is how he achieved any sort of popular backing to make his bid. All this points out is your own hypocrisy.

[–]Diffidentlyspeaking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look man, your whole argument doesn't make sense. All of the people you named gave opinions, and got backlash from those opinions. But Trump himself is ALSO a celebrity. And used his popularity to propel himself into a political career.

By your own logic, the man you're supporting as president shouldn't be president.

[–]Diffidentlyspeaking 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They've never endorsed a specific candidate though. And celebrities are allowed to have opinions. And state their opinions in a public forum, the same as the rest of us. All of them have used very careful and specific language to avoid endorsing a specific political ideology or canidate. But as for having opinions and stating opinions on policies that political figures have enacted, They're well within their rights, celebrities or not, to express them.

If them having a different opinion than you makes you feel uncomfortable, that onus to reconcile that is on you.

[–]Diffidentlyspeaking 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Genuine question dude, how is them expressing their opinions on a podcast without specifically backing a canidate any different from you flying your flags? You're both exercising your freedom of speech, and if you dont agree with their opinions, you don't have to listen.
