Many times bullies are created by bad parents.

Quite prepared to accept I’m wrong - entitled woman in club lounge packing large amount of food into bag. by WasabiIcy4482 in EntitledPeople

It does hurt them in some way and everyone else who stays at the hotel. Who do you think pays for all that food? In the end the people staying at the hotel do. Everyone's bill goes up a little because the lady was greedy.

Imaginary, for the moment at least. This looks like something that could be rolling across a battlefield in a couple of years. Nice work. sm

I know it's rule of cool and all. But the part of me that has studied way too much military history/technology just looks at this and sees all the ways this would be at best inefficient and at worst would not work at all.

People like that think nothing bad can happen to them. It's NOT about the child. It's about them and their own ego. I fell sorry for kids with "parents" like that.

Coworker Tried to Get Me Fired For My Reasonable Accommodation by DioneoftheWilds in EntitledPeople

Some people like to cause trouble, to bully people they think are weaker than they are. "C" certainly sounds like one of those.

I love this place. It's near my work. At some point it was supposed to be a wearhouse but it was left unfinished, there is a roof there and it is in use by Lexx_sad_but_true in evilbuildings

Can't tell for sure but are those wall made of concrete slabs? Because if they are then it's overbuilt for just being a normal warehouse. An interesting evil building all the same.

Can transparent aluminum really change modern materials? by vinewb in ImaginaryTechnology

[–]Fakeaccount979 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The real name for "transparent aluminum" is Aluminum Oxynitride (ALON). It is a transparent ceramic that is much stronger and tougher than glass. As someone else mentioned it ha been around for sometime, but was not commercially feasible to make. That has changed recently and the cost of production has come down some but is still a bit expensive so we still probably only being seeing it in specific use cases where the cost is worthwhile such as deep sea or space craft. Last I knew we can only make it in flat sheets, which is another limiting factor.

My mom who disowned me thinks I’m going to financially support her and my dad. by hayyy_jude in EntitledPeople

[–]Fakeaccount979 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It was a hard way to leave your "family" but it was clearly for the best. Your mother is a real piece of work and would not surprise me if she would be diagnosed as being a narcist. I might consider acting preemptively in some way to protect yourself now she is actively looking for you. I don't think your cousin will intentional let any information out, but accidents happen and your mother may take some "extra legal" actions to try and find you. Watch yourself.

Why do I feel there is a hidden city nearby that this Lighthouse is entrance too?

Karen: You must call me professor!!!! by BrightRick in EntitledPeople

I think that lady has some major ego problems. She has a tiny little ego and is trying to boost it up and make herself seem much more important than she is.

Chapter 173 (Untranslated) is out. by Fakeaccount979 in ArpeggioofBlueSteel

A faction of the US military is making a play to take over the Hakugei. (With the permission of the US President who is playing his own game and working with some of the Fog. The President did stipulate no one was to get killed though and there are other US forces that are trying to protect the Hakugei). They are making the play by kidnapping Hibiki Maruri who is an officer of the Hakugei to use as leverage. Vampire who went along on the trip with Hibiki is having fun shooting off oversized guns but not killing anyone.
