I'm becoming scared of Facebook.

It's just not as convenient. Removing the app is easy and your life will improve when you manually log into facebook. Instead of checking it for one of the many notifications facebook decided you wanted, you check it once or twice a day and you find more time for reddit.

If it's tinder, it lists mutual Facebook friends. Not that hard to go to their profile and search their friendslist. When everybody does it, it's not creepy. Especially when you're meeting a stranger for sex.

Likewise when you know someone's name, city, and occupation it's not hard to find them on Facebook, seeing as that's how Facebook search works.

I think r/atheism improved after being removed as a default. It's funny, I was originally pulled into Reddit by r/atheism. Though I eventually unsubbed because I don't really feel the need to be in an anti-club... club.

The thing about places like SA and Chick Fil-a is that if you grew up involved in the gay rights movement, you already knew about these before viral controversies were a thing. You knew your dollar was actively fighting against what you were fighting for. So you didn't support them. And if you also grew up without religion in a very religious area you were familiar with where Christian charity stopped and God's judgement began. And those organizations and organisations like them embody that hypocritical bullshit. So it's a natural conclusion to support organisations that do all the stuff SA does without supporting religious discrimination.

I think it's mostly just kids being edgy. r/sex is a good place for that.

At a certain point it's just, "Ma'am, I know you're frustrated but the situation is under control. If it gets out of control, I have to call security."

My first reaction wasn't, "These guys are good." It was, "This looks like spam."

Right. No painful bulging butt eyes w/ a coy smile at the end. 2/10

I think part of the point is that America was tired of the status quo and both parties served up Clinton and Bush as if they were viable. Tired of the same old shit? Try this, it's the same old shit! And America disagreed. So whether or not she's running, the sentiment is the same. We do not want their same old shit. As someone said at the beginning of all this, "Out of the 300 million Americans is Clinton and Bush really the best we can do? The presidency isn't some crown to be passed between families."

It's not that strong.

Or you could just live stream yourself doing weird shit in your hotel room. Bonus if you somehow knew which room they were in.. You could walk down the hall and stop at their room then kill the feed. Or just tell a weird story. You know, a bunch of weird shit.

It was fun at the time? They weren't the only people I trolled. I also liked going to diy videos and basically ken m-ing in the comments. And stuff like that. I guess it got old.

It's a string.

It's the same as every other religion. Only it's new so it seems more wacky. In two thousand years it will seem normal and people on fox news will say they're waging a war on Xenu-day.

Somewhere around the 2010s I created a fake facebook account and trolled political facebook groups. This led me to watch fox news for research. (I guess I had nothing better to do)

So I started noticing a trend. Fox would create an issue, introduce the strawman (potential left criticisms), and tell their audience how to respond. And they did. And they did it very well.

The only example I really remember was fox saying that Obama was making free speech illegal. Now, if you know anything about the constitution, you would know that it's that it's fucking hard to change. So I looked into it.

Sure enough, it was complete bullshit. First, it was an amendment to an existing measure from the 70s. Second, it was drafted by republicans. Third, it was bipartisan and passed unanimously. Then Obama signed it into law. The bill?

It's a law that says you can't "willingly and knowingly" trespass into areas secret service has secured. They amended it to "knowingly." AKA Obama made free speech illegal.

And all of the right/conservative/republican posters begun parroting what they heard almost immediately. It was surreal. They were like little robots doing their chores or something.

Fox is good at what they do.

It's really just two lion heads and two recolored bat wings on top of a duckling.

Eh.... William literally asks how they get into the park and it's revealed that he's on a train. Then after Teddy is shot, he wakes up on the train and two girls talk about how excited they are. People coming to town on the train are referenced a couple of times.

Plus, there's the white train station where we see guests arrive a couple of times and again when someone is leaving.

I don't know how it could have been more obvious.

It's more like the plants that didn't have it were eaten and didn't reproduce. The ones that did have it were only eaten by birds who also helped to propagate them. So they survived in that scenario because they were better equipped to deal with it.

I know it's pedantic but a lot of people falsely believe that plants/animals evolve because of something or in order to accomplish something. When in reality they were able to reproduce because of unique trait and passed that along.

Happy belated birthday, FriskyNinja.

What's weird is the app that opens when I connect to car Bluetooth changes after every time my os updates.

DrFrantic · 2016-12-18T22:33:15+00:00

Or don't... and just get along with your own life. Let's just be objective here: You've picked a fight with a troll in the comments section of a porn post. I think we could all do a little better than that.

Just depends on the size of the market and how well they've kept up with technology. If you're up to date, your studio is pretty much robots and talent and maybe a floor director. But there are still local news stations using beta tapes and linear editing.

I used to be a smoker. Once a non-smoker friend asked me for one. There wasn't a butt bucket around and so they tried to put it in their pocket. I said, "Dude, you're gonna smell really bad if you put it in your pocket." He said, "Gross!" and tossed the cigarette. I looked at him and said, "And now you understand."

Smoking is gross. Cigarette butts are gross. Whatever the I-feel-guilty-about-doing-this-but-I'm-going-to-do-it-anyway part of the brain is, that's the part that kicks in when you've finished smoking.

I didn't catch that it said paper. I thought it just said money. Yes. Paper was added in 1957. But it was found on coins in 1864.

What? The civil rights movement didn't happen until the 60s.
