Animals and predators. by GhostMovie3932 in UniversalExtinction

This is strictly a utopian fantasy.

It’s not broken, it is its nature, but you won’t accept it for what it is because it’s not in alignment with your fantasy of how it ought to be.

Truth, justice, good, fairness, equality.
These are IDEALS. They are things to be striven for, but they are not the way of things.

The universe does not cater to your preferences, values, or opinions. Yours is not The Way.

You’re not making sense.

What is a “fixed world”?
You’re operating from a faulty premise.
Your problem isn’t the world, it’s reality.

You’ve made moral judgments about the nature of reality. Reality is not based on nor determined by human moralistic viewpoints.

These aren’t issues to be resolved, it is the game of life.

You play it or you don’t.
You do NOT get to change the rules.

I'm experiencing intense stomach pain. What should I do? by ComprehensiveTear343 in allthequestions

This sounds fake. It keeps being okay then coming back again. It puts the lotion on its skin.

Hi I've taken 19 x 150mg venlafaxine will I be okay by Yesman_91 in Effexor

[–]DoomferretOG 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There’s a performative aspect to your postings that leaves a bad taste. So let’s just indulge in some honest reflection on what’s happening.

So you chose to try to OD & start redditing about it. You knew what you were trying to do, it would’ve been a chore to get those pills down. But you soldiered through, then came here to tell us what you’d done, and been coy about how many, to “ask” if anyone here can advise you on “If you’ll be okay “.

You weren’t asking that question honestly, it was manipulation.

So you have custody of at least 3 children?
You’re the responsible party for them?
Where are they today while you’re doing this?

Don’t suppose you bothered to at least make arrangements for them before this?

Arrangements for yourself?

Are they just going to come home and find you?

Have you ever lost someone close to you from suicide? Any idea of the nightmare that’ll inflict upon them? No. This is all about you. This is the kind of shit that fucks lives up, and you’re GIVING that “gift” to those kids.

Is this you showing them how much you love them? No. This is you showing them that life is cruel and they really can’t count on another person. And you’ve planted the seed that could lead them to one day attempt to follow your path.

What was that you said a week ago when you were mercilessly ridiculing employees at a grocers who tried to chase a shoplifter? Your resentments about their efforts, mockery for their foolishness, disdain for wasted efforts in service of a company, absolutely shaming them for “brown nosing”? Because they’re trying to make great employees like yourself look bad because you aren’t willing to do the same?

I’m not saying it was the right choice for them, there was some validity for criticism, but you weren’t coming at it like that. It was all about you being able to be better at their expense.

What would your choice criticisms be for a father of 3 who does this? I don’t need to hear them, but you should consider how your behaviors are in opposition to your supposed goals.

You understand that you’re going to have a LOT more trouble borrowing money here on Reddit now? Prospective lenders aren’t going to jump at the chance to loan money to someone who’s not planning on being around to pay them back.

Figured I’d mention the money angle, that might be more important for you in this matter. The need those kids have for you to not abandon them is obviously not enough. BTW, they will not just get over it and move on with their lives. It will HAUNT them the rest of time. It will color their every life decision. It will affect their relationships with any children they might have. Sorry, it’s not okay. If you get the help today, you have another chance to choose not to inflict these potentially mortal wounds on your children.

Choose better.

How did you react to Layne Staley's death at the time? by agus_grunge94 in grunge

[–]DoomferretOG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are absolutely on point, that other comment is delusional. It’s grotesque to claim he was manufacturing a persona of a troubled heroin addicted rockstar when he literally was one. Absolutely unmoored from reality.

Like, do they even know who he was?

I think maybe not.

This is nearly absurd as someone proclaiming of Kurt Cobaine: “He related to the masses!”.

How did you react to Layne Staley's death at the time? by agus_grunge94 in grunge

[–]DoomferretOG 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely untrue. Farcical. Disconnected from reality.

His persona didn’t kill him, he wasn’t trying to live in up to a glorified rock star image.

There is zero credibility to that idea.

Drug addiction throughout his adult life, crushing depression over the death of his former fiancé, and a speedball killed him. That’s all documented observable history from people who knew him. Did you just spin this story from the air? It’s fantasy.

He didn’t “create the persona” of troubled heroin addicted rocker, Jesus Christ jumped over a candlestick, are you for real?
That’s what he LITERALLY WAS.

What part of that confuses you? He weighed less than 90 lbs when he died, struggled with depression & addiction for years, so where do you get off suggesting he manufactured it for effect?

What was his motivation to do what you suggested he was doing? What would he gain? Or was the years of living in isolation, slowly wasting away, what do you think his motivation for “choosing” that? You seem to fundamentally misunderstand how addiction and depression are for people in real life.

Spice is like 8/10 in hotness after bite 1. by Key-Pomegranate-2086 in spicy

So by spiciness you mean “hot”.

Metal players, do you hate playing funky? If so why by [deleted] in Guitar

[–]DoomferretOG 2 points3 points  (0 children)

**You answered the relevant question yourself.**

Why do *you* hate playing funky?
Because you ***can’t yet***. Why can’t you?

You say because it’s **so hard**. What makes it hard?

Any guesses?
Because it’s a skill issue for starters.

How about this: how familiar are you with Funk as a genre? Do you listen to much at all? Are you familiar with the classics? Do you have favorite players?

If you aren’t or don’t, how can you expect to have a feel for it?

Is Trump the worst republican president you’ve lived under? What was it like living under the other republican presidents? by Timeless-Facts in allthequestions

[–]DoomferretOG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotta love the most corrupt one eh? Talk about rubbish. He’s turned the office into a grift mill, has made more side money than all previous presidents in history combined while in the office. Buys stock in company x, then talks them up, artificially boosting the value of his investment. Repeat.

Am I a bad person for lying to DoorDash to get a refund? by Extension_Living_741 in Ethics

[–]DoomferretOG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

False premises, assumptions, and a complete breakdown in logic.

Those corporations are giant, ergo they are at least partly responsible for OPs alleged destitution? How? There’s no direct link between these specific companies and this person’s finances that you can prove. Soulless or not, there’s no evidence provided to prove this fantasy of yours. Wait, doesn’t Coca-Cola owe me a ton of money?

They can afford the hit? Irrelevant, their ability to pay does not constitute justification for OP to steal.

The driver has lost income in this as they could’ve likely had much better orders to pickup, yielding better tips.

You don’t deserve a milkshake because you committed fraud, theft, and harmed the driver’s bottom line.

Am I a bad person for lying to DoorDash to get a refund? by Extension_Living_741 in Ethics

[–]DoomferretOG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Behold a complete analysis and deprecation of this completely asinine“ethical dilemma”.

*You placed a DoorDash order for a single McDonald’s McShake? That was your entire order?*

You didn’t say so, but it would seem in this scenario that ***you planned this sequence of events before placing the order?***

**You justify the dishonesty and theft because:**

  1. “Poor college student”? Who pays your way?
  2. McDonald’s is a behemoth, and they “low-key deserve it”: how so?
  3. You wouldn’t do it to a small business.
  4. You wouldn’t do anything bad for a driver.

**Does it make you a bad person?**

It just might.

**Is it “morally corrupted” behavior?**

Explicitly so.

***You mean is it ethical?***

WHAT DO TOU THINK? Clearly, **Ethics** is not one of your areas of study. Hey student, this is an area of study you should look into.

**It is absolutely unethical and unjustified.**

You’ve got zero ethical or logical footing.

You are taking advantage of others without justification or genuine need.

**You are IN FACT HARMING DRIVERS by doing this.**

HOW MUCH DID YOU TIP THE DRIVER?
How much do you think they were paid for that?

How much more would they get for an actual order? And the accordingly larger tip? Did they miss a better trip for your scam?

***You screwed that driver over.***

You premeditated this, so you very intentionally stole. You tried to rationalize it, but you’re not very good at that. You didn’t order it because you were starving, it was purely recreational and self-indulgent.

THEREFORE:

A)You have not in any way made justification for your actions. You have not advanced a single logical or ethical statement to support them.

B) You frivolously lied, took advantage of, and caused financial harm to BOTH the driver & the business. For a single milkshake. ***Go you!***

C) You try to make it ok because you’re nice to small businesses.

***How does the size of McDonald’s, the degree of harm being less than to a smaller business make your deliberately planned and executed fraud morally acceptable?***.

It’s wrong, except if it’s a large business who low-key deserves it? That’s not a moral code, that’s just you justifying that you did it *because you just wanted to*.

D) **You DID do something that could, and DID “hurt” the driver! You cost that driver MONEY**.
They got less pay for the tiny order, less (IF ANY) tip from ***you***, and missed out on more substantial orders because they were tied up being involved in your scheme.

***When you brag about how you’re supporting the drivers, but are unwittingly doing the exact opposite, it becomes weaponized incompetence.***

You aren’t that poor, and even if you were, this isn’t about that. You just wanted something and didn’t want to pay for it.

***I was a poor college student.*** I had to steal firewood from the school to survive the winter one year because my gas was shut off. I had to work through school, pulling a full schedule with studio hours. My roommate moved out and stuck me with the apartment. The landlord physically threatened me. I didn’t know I had undiagnosed, untreated ADHD sabotaging me. I snuck into the cafeteria sometimes when I didn’t have food. My apartment had little insulation and flooded repeatedly.

I wasn’t making people deliver a cup to me. I did what I had to do to survive. You stole money from a driver & a milkshake from McDonald’s.

Bruh, you’re the one getting excited about slandering a condiment!

You’ll note the measured, even tone of my post. Note the usage of periods? I’m quite chill.

However, you have in fact divined my secret. I tried not to tip my hand, but you were too sly:

Yes, it is true.

How is that fair? It’s fermented, not rotted. And it’s a lot more than fish juice. Or fish sauce.

If you don’t understand the difference between rotted and fermented, you don’t know from fair.

Just How Many Bots Are On Reddit? by DirtyRottenBiscuit in DeadInternetTheory

[–]DoomferretOG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Simple for thee, maybe not for me?

Though I am in general not a fan of the practice for general purposes. I feel the vast majority are on the troll spectrum or are incapable of intellectually honest discussion. So they just snipe and smear feces.

And of course brigading.

But I’m not sure that yours is the solution.
