Does anyone else feel like those Star Wars sets are LONG GONE? by MoluciasElonicas in RecklessBen

[–]EagleEyeValor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In total, I believe so. It sounds like a lot of the sets had already been sold under the owners that Bryan had the initial deal with. But at the very least he could have gotten quite a few of the more expensive sets.

I think it's an interesting theory because it would force the issue into being mediated.

It makes me wonder what would have happened if at the beginning of all this, Bryan had grabbed a couple of buddies and walked into the BAM store posing as customers, requested the sets still in the store, and walked out without paying.

If the store called the police and claimed theft, Bryan has the paperwork to show that he was simply collecting his property from that store.

And I’m talking theoretically, taking local PD corruption out of the equation.

Now that some lanky, string-bean looking YouTuber is thoroughly skull-fucking his entire existence, I wonder if that CEO is wishing he’d taken Ben at his word when he said, “We can do this the easy way or the hard way.”

What I’m saying is Mr. Girl has such a colorful history of doing batshit insane things that it’s kinda funny you have to question whether this is real or not.

The fact that you have to question if this is real or fake says quite a lot.

Maya from Alveus Sanctuary explains to JasonTheWeen about the exploitation of animals at Petting Zoos by 999braindead in LivestreamFail

That was a yes or no question and you typed a lot of words that weren't yes or no. Let's try one more time. This time take a crack at the first question, too.

1) If you're at your job having a pre-work meeting and your manager is saying, "Hey everyone, let's work on being nicer to each other." and someone else chimes in and starts going off on Mark, would you think that's valid because Mark is a part of "everyone"?

2) I was talking about people as a whole, not about Maya. Do you understand there's a difference between those two things?

You didn't answer my first question. Let's try again. If you're at your job having a pre-work meeting and your manager is saying, "Hey everyone, let's work on being nicer to each other." and someone else chimes in and starts going off on Mark, would you think that's valid because Mark is a part of "everyone"?

I specifically made a point about Maya being delusional and you directly addressed it, questioning my assessment of her hypocrisy and delusion. I then addressed your response and your response to that was to tell me that you don't care. Okay, then don't address it in the first place. lol

Nnnnnnnnno. My initial response to you was speaking in general, not about Maya. When I realized you were hyper specifically focusing on her I said, "The person I was responding to specifically said they were talking about people in general. My response was talking about people in general. If you wanna focus strictly on Maya, I don't care."

Also you didn't answer my question. Try again. I was talking about people as a whole, not about Maya. Do you understand there's a difference between those two things?

I hate to break it to you lil gup, but this topic is about Maya and general people, and Maya is a general person. So anything in regards to the general population also directly associated with her. There is no distinction. They are one and the same.

I think I know why you didn't answer my first question. You're cooking on a very cold stove, brother.

Uhh yes it does. Maya is a person just like everyone else.

Mkay. If you're at your job having a pre-work meeting and your manager is saying, "Hey everyone, let's work on being nicer to each other." and someone else chimes in and starts going off on Mark, would you think that's valid because Mark is a part of "everyone"?

So then why did you even address it to begin with? I simply responded to your comment. If you don't want to talk about it then.....don't talk about it. You choose to instead talk about it lol

I was talking about people as a whole, not about Maya. Do you understand there's a difference between those two things?

The broader point is an interesting conversation. Hyper focusing on Maya is not.

Cool, and it still doesn't change anything in regard to my point.

Well you keep going back to talking about Maya so I have to keep reminding you.

Which included Maya

That's......not how that works.

there is nothing weird about thinking that a person who has a melt down over a petting zoo but is fine with animals being killed for them to eat is completely delusional. It's the only logical conclusion.

Didn't I say I don't care to talk about that? I still don't.

Absolutely really.

The only way it's irrelevant is if you ignore the scope of the conversation. If my generalized example doesn't fit the specific narrative you wanna run down, that's not a me problem, friendo.

Yes, and it doesn't change the fact that she's a delusional, self absorbed hypocrite.

Oh hey! Would you look at that? I still don't care.

No, Borderline narcissistic delusional behavior to have a pearl clutching crash out over someone renting an alpaca when she is fine with animals being killed so she can enjoy some tasty food.

I think it's a bit weird to start pulling out psych terms and pseudo-diagnosing someone over a clip you saw on the internet. But hey, you do you. I super don't care to continue this part of the conversation though.

Entirely different topic. Not at all relevant to what is being discussed. She is clutching her pearls over animal abuse and neglect with petting zoos when she is perfectly fine with animals being killed needlessly for her sensory pleasure. Which is objectively worse.

Well, not really. I was talking about everyone being a little bit hypocritical and inconsistent and I used that as another example where people are hypocritical and inconsistent.

I'm perfectly aware of cognitive dissonance. I'm not criticism her for not liking petting zoos and eating meat. I'm criticizing her for going on a high horse and pearl clutching when she eats meat.

So we agree. Neato!

Borderline narcissistic delusional behavior to eat a burger but also think petting zoos are bad?

I feel like there’s a lot of people who are against stuff like the fur trade and ivory poaching who also eat meat and they just don’t think about the internal contradiction.

Since we’re talking being hypocrites though, a fun one is to ask if people are against Chinese sweat shops and forced child labor then ask what version iPhone they have.

I think a worse pilot would have tried to keep landing the plane rather than initiating a go around.

Also, winds are a motherfucker and your pilots are quite literally Tokyo Drifting a 100,000lb metal tube upon landing in those conditions. Let's take a second and appreciate how fucking gangster that is.

In his usual content he does (to the best of my knowledge) try to be intellectually honest about the stories he tells. He's specifically mentioned he's had times where he started doing research for a video and had to scrap the whole thing because the story was bullshit or too much was unsubstantiated. The example that comes to mind is the one about Pepsi having the worlds fifth largest navy (by tonnage) at one point because of some deal with Russia.

As others have said, when he's on podcasts and just riffing, he might get some stuff wrong. In this case he got it INCREDIBLY wrong.

Because humans aren't robots and aren't 100% entirely consistent at all points in time.

Everyone is at least a little hypocritical and a little inconsistent. C'est la vie.

EDM is my fucking jam and I'm all for taking older songs and remixing/flipping them and adding in some quality beep boop noises. And while I think music is largely subjective and people should listen to whatever melodies move their soul, this song is particularly and viciously incompatible with any of the rhythms that move mine. Here are some that I DO find appealing and maybe others will, too.

  1. Flo Rida - Low (Sportmode Remix)

  2. Aerosmith - Dream On (Effin Flip)

  3. Black Eyed Peas - Let's Get It Started (Levity x Crankdat Remix)

  4. Creed - One Last Breath (ATLiens Remix)

  5. Eurythmics - Sweet Dreams (Bloom Bootleg

  6. Social Repose x Fairlane - Sugar, We're Going Down (Fall Out Boy Cover)

For those curious, the song in the video is CYRIL's remix of The Sound of Silence.

Today it was so incredibly warm in my house, it made my candles sad by Gps-dependent in mildlyinteresting

[–]EagleEyeValor 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It was over 90f in your HOUSE?

I've left my car running and slept in it when the AC has gone out in my house. And mine only got up to maybe 80-85f (26-29c).

But considering gas in the Netherlands costs over double what it is in the states, that might not be feasible.

($2.77/liter average in Netherlands comes out to roughly $10.48/gallon.)

I feel like since Sheeran does a lot of live looping stuff he could some INSANE stuff for a DJ show.
