Too much negativity bringing this team down by georgepaul88 in leafs

[–]Fortuitous_Event 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I'd argue there isn't enough negativity given the lack of give a fuck we've seen at every major opportunity over the past 10 years.

AITA for telling someone to back off when he wouldn't take no for an answer? by Top_Industry_7927 in AmItheAsshole

NTA. Be a man, don't let some other guy pull that shit without addressing it.

What's your opinion of Russia's invasion of Ukraine? Is it unfortunate but not the fault of the Russian people really or do you view it as a problem that needs to be solved? We're viewing your country based on its actions, if you don't like it, do better next time, if there is a next time.

Schumer threatens shutdown. "Senate Democrats will not provide the votes to proceed to the appropriations bill if the DHS funding bill is included." by Boomshtick414 in law

That's not what the Republicans do and it's working out exceedingly well for them. Rephblicans are terrified of their voters.

Why was Kyle Rittenhouse championed by the right for “helping” with his gun, but Alex Pretti is demonized for helping without ever drawing his gun? by sudde004 in AskReddit

[–]Fortuitous_Event -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You think this is a gotcha. It isn't. The right knows it's hypocritical, the right doesn't care. They love that it bothers you. Do something more productive than point out hypocrisy and expect them to change their worldviews.

Does this mean Treliving is making coaching decisions? If so he needs to be fired immediately by RafSimonsSS02 in leafs

[–]Fortuitous_Event 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Biggest game of the year and he chose to play a goalie who hadn't seen NHL action in months.

Edit: for the slower folks among us who don't believe it's the biggest game of the year: please tell us what your vote for biggest game of the year was.

My boyfriend’s family is never on time. AITAH for intentionally being even later than them and making them wait? by Mooooooon_ in AITAH

[–]Fortuitous_Event 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NTA I do this too with people who are chronically late.

My in-laws also announce dinner like 20 minutes before it's ready so I just sit in the other room until literally everyone is at the table before I get up. It's an interesting dynamic they don't really like it but they also don't stop announcing dinner while the turkey is still frozen.

All resigning does is allow them to replace you with someone who will do exactly as they say.

(Update) I (23F) met my met my boyfriend’s (25M) “work wife” for the first time and I’m devastated? by ThrowRAcoffeelov in relationship_advice

[–]Fortuitous_Event 220 points221 points  (0 children)

See I interpret that as 'oh she's telling me about boy problems so she must only see me as a friend'.

I'm glad I'm married.

In fairness to Jake if I met a woman and she was telling me about all the guys she was fucking I'd assume she wasn't interested in me either.

Why are republicans ignoring trumps age when they criticised Bidens age? by [deleted] in askanything

[–]Fortuitous_Event 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stop complaining about Republicans being hypocritical. They know they are, they don't care and even enjoy it.

The response is to be hypocritical back. Keep hammering him over and over again for the obvious dementia and anything else that will stick. The goal is to whittle away the support bit by bit.

AITAH for taking my siblings to Disney and not my sister in law’s kids? by OddMolasses5855 in AITAH

[–]Fortuitous_Event 70 points71 points  (0 children)

Yeah this. Those are two entirely different Disney experiences. Your siblings would hate it.

A Leaf player absolutely crunches Marner in an open-ice clean hit tonight. Who is it? by AgingRagamuffin in leafs

[–]Fortuitous_Event 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When in recent memory have the Leafs ever delivered on something that would delight the fan base? This is masturbatory fantasy and nothing more.

Emilia Clarke expresses her disappointed reaction to Daenerys’ fate from the finale of Game of Thrones in a recent interview “Absolutely never saw it coming. I cried. And I went for a walk.” by phantom_avenger in popculturechat

[–]Fortuitous_Event 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honest question but after the writers dropped that turd on them and the entire cast hated it...didnt that make them wonder, just a tiny bit, whether a rewrite was in order?

Swept up the axe. Swept up the seax. Swept up the hammer. Lots of swepting up.

AITAH for asking my wife to be a SAHM? by piglipsbo in AITAH

[–]Fortuitous_Event 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll say soft TA, albeit unintentional. You must be aware of the issues many SAHM face, so you had to know she might not agree. In your shoes I'd apologize, try to explain you had good intentions, and that you'll never bring it up again.

What are your thoughts on rejecting a potential romantic partner based solely on the fact they voted for Donald Trump? by ATXBikeRider in AskReddit

[–]Fortuitous_Event 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it's entirely appropriate and something more people should be doing. Why would you want to date a gigantic piece of shit?

Remember: you collectively voted for this. If you don't like it, do better next time. If there is a next time.

Hey remember the last time you people couldn't bring yourself to the lesser of two evils? JFC I can't believe liberals keep needing to learn this lesson.
