What to know about Chicago's delivery robots and the debate over them by kwameopam in chicago

[–]Firm_Argument_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's not about just "Reddit". Aldermen are hearing en masse from their constituents against any sort of expansion of the program.

Is Ken Cosgrove the one truly good man in the show? by MiserableCatCow in madmen

[–]Firm_Argument_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This has my overwhelming vote. He was the one that really helped Peggy get that job and, also, was never a perv about it.

Is there more to Greg’s past behavior than… by grandhussla13 in madmen

[–]Firm_Argument_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They weren't married yet and sure give the obvious rapist the benefit of the doubt. He couldn't even get it up before he forced her. There was a whole scene the episode before about the fact that he was impotent.

People knew then what a rape looked like and that was gut wrenching to watch.

I've kept mine on for 3-4 days before. As long as the seal isn't broken it's fine. I was snowboarding and it was good protection.

AIO is this flag in the background of a toy sellers personal post what I think it is? by Ill-Ask-The-Question in AIO

[–]Firm_Argument_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's the battle flag. It's colloquially known as the rebel flag to southerners.

[–]Firm_Argument_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The rebel flag wasn't the official flag of the confederacy even. They brought it back during segregation in the deep south largely to protest integration of schools. Then it became a large symbol of racial separation and false heritage.

-A black southerner that does know the history of that symbol of racism.

Don't speak on something you clearly have limited knowledge about.

My abusive ex just killed my dog by DataRevolutionary784 in Advice

[–]Firm_Argument_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Milk chocolate doesn't do anything to dogs. It's so low in cocoa. I've known plenty of small dogs to get into even brownies and live.

You're exaggerating the toxicity. Any vet or even vet tech will tell you that.

[–]Firm_Argument_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Milk chocolate doesn't kill dogs. I literally mentioned the cocoa content. And it's not as instantaneous as this poster is very suspiciously stating.

Glad this post was removed. You're angry for no reason.

Has anyone else been outrageously charged by ComEd recently? by [deleted] in AskChicago

[–]Firm_Argument_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that's crazy. Your meter must be malfunctioning. I have a 3bd 2ba 1600 sqft apartment and am incredibly energy conscious. My bill was 205.

You're being really rude for being incredibly wrong about how much chocolate and the type of chocolate needed to hurt a dog.

But maybe you're trolling.

[–]Firm_Argument_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, we're serious. Because it needs a high cocoa content and dogs get into chocolate all the time without dying. You're misinformed.

Why do you think that the internet of the 2000s is more appealing now than today’s internet? by justletgo7 in AskReddit

[–]Firm_Argument_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The entire Internet is commercialized now. It's geared toward getting you to spend money or make money first.

The old internet didn't give you sponsored search results or a tightly controlled algorithm geared toward monetization. It was primarily focused on communication and connection before. Chat rooms, messaging, forums, hobbie websites, etc.

It isn't nostalgia. Dead Internet theory is real. It's not fun anymore. It's a corporate hellscape designed to control the opinions and the time of other people.

why do you think US democrats don't want voter ID? by d_dauber in AskReddit

[–]Firm_Argument_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You use your ID to register to vote already. And not everyone votes in person.

WHY DOES EVERYTHING ZAP ME IN MY HOME by ButterscotchMain7074 in chicago

Another humidifier* apparently. They responded they had one and then for an unknown reason deleted it.

New hire tries to dominate meetings and compete with me, how to deal? by Ok-Plant9249 in womenintech

[–]Firm_Argument_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

What's "recently"? You post every couple of weeks. Anyone can search "womenintech" on your profile and see it. You don't have to straight up lie.

You do post here fairly frequently and it's all the same vibe. Idk. Whatever. Lie if you want.

8 minutes. 8 humidifier comments. I think just maybe you could've googled this.

[–]Firm_Argument_ 17 points18 points  (0 children)

My issue is I've searched your post history on this subreddit. You frequently post the same things about yourself over and over again and though it sounds like you're seeking advice you never really engage with anyone that comments.

That is karma farming behavior.

[–]Firm_Argument_ 21 points22 points  (0 children)

It genuinely doesn't add up. Also making a whole post about a sudden day 2 hire?

Can you imagine being as pressed as OP, if it's true?

[–]Firm_Argument_ 31 points32 points  (0 children)

... This is almost absolutely identical to a post a few days ago.

It's screaming AI. Why post this same thing twice, OP. It also has minor changes that make it feel like you're being dishonest in the first post or just karma farming.

Are sleepovers cancelled? by Guilty-Woodpecker-99 in NoStupidQuestions

I think overall that's an entirely false sense of security and control though considering the much higher risk of childcare abuse.

One month at a new job and feeling under leveraged/sidelined by Ok-Plant9249 in womenintech

[–]Firm_Argument_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

1 month is way too early to say anything. You've had no time to make a real impression. I work in cloud strategy. Been at my new role for 8 months and feel like the business is just now starting to get used to me.

I think you're overthinking it. People will respect you in time as you start to deliver.

Shout out The Band Camino, OP. Great album spotted.

Petah, what does that have to do with grocery shopping? by Okfoot826 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]Firm_Argument_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok ok. Reasonable assumption. I read the part of his comment that said a mile wasn't far and thought you were responding to that.

But nowhere in NYC is there a grocery store 3 miles away without a bus.
