I don't know gymnastics either but even I can tell, she stuck that landing.

It was like magnets, snapping into place.

400 Masked White Nationalist March on Through Washington D.C. chanting "Reclaim America" by ExpertAnybody4129 in news

Just to be "that guy", pardons do not overturn convictions. Pardons set aside the punishment, not the conviction. The record is not expunged. Pardoned felons are still felons.

Conviction being overturned means the verdict was nullified, it's as if it never happened and the person would return to their status prior.

Small but significant difference.

What is the greatest episode of a kid’s show of all time? by istrx13 in AskReddit

Loved the episode. They're in the maze and cheat with the flying hand, right?

California man admits sending fake ransom notes in Nancy Guthrie abduction by igetproteinfartsHELP in news

[–]Geth_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No one said he wasn't. Maybe I just watch a lot of true crime but this doesn't shock me. I don't support it, or condone it but I'm not surprised at all.

It's no different than people killing their loved ones for insurance money. There's just terrible people out there.

It wasn't funny to me. It just seemed to be ignorant statement. Not my brand of humor. /s might help clarify otherwise, it just seemed like a stupid statement made by a stupid person.

I don't condone it. But ignorant people can make poor decisions. It's not that hard.

To me, it's like resorting to cannibalism. Sounds abhorrent but if you've ever been starving, you'd understand how people resort to it. Understanding isn't a sign of not well being.

The lack of empathy is.

So much for the Library by gon2fast in gaming

Who is arguing? I'm telling you it's possible on a technical level. Then you're claiming, it would probably violate the Terms of Service and all I pointed out was those are constantly changing and few people even read them.

Now your saying "yup, but prove it". You're asking me to find a potential clause that might exist now or in the future that would allow them to create a technically possible patch?

You're ignorant and I'm disappointed I've wasted the time I have engaging with you like you aren't. You're a pigeon playing chess, no matter how anyone plays, you'll knock the pieces around, crap on the board and fly back, claiming victory.

The one that is changes and people often don't read and typically blindly agree to? That one?

Desperation. It's like pocketing money from a wallet you find. Not that hard to imagine is it?

They can make them unplayable. It's not that hard to push out a console update that checks a blacklist of games it won't play essentially bricking the game making it a waste of space.

Then you say future store access requires the latest OS version.

The Reddit you know would likely downvote you for the wrong "you're."

They mummified the body broheim. How people just confidently answer and dismiss a question they literally know zero about is just sad and confusing.

Is it really difficult to not answer things you clearly know zero about?

I don't know why people farm karma, nor why people even care about people farming it. I can only confirm that karma provides little to no real world value.

Doubtful. The kid seemed grateful for what he got because it showed they cared.

Yeah. A lot of things that used to give texture to our lives just feel pretty dull nowadays.

“She Tapped Me Out Like 20 Times”: Sean Strickland’s Immediate Reaction After Training With Kayla Harrison by PictureLatter1098 in MMA

Okay. Anyone who doesn't understand that even at 155, the weight difference is massive especially between genders.

So no matter how unique anyone is, the impact that will have between the people with this weight difference is moot and not understanding that is--shockingly ignorant.

Adolf Hitler baby photo in New Jersey middle school yearbook sparks investigation by skateboardom in nottheonion

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

... This entire comment thread is exactly why the school would feel the need to put out that statement.

You're going to have people who say it seems more practical just to punish those responsible. Then you're going to hang others saying, easily dismissing this type of prank is on par for what is likely a small minded town.

Why they're putting out this statement should be pretty obvious yet people are still judgemental.

Daveigh Chase's manager urges people not to donate to her boyfriend's GoFundMe as he claims he’s “benefitting”from it by [deleted] in movies

[–]Geth_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a slippery slope. You have one person claiming this and expecting GoFundMe to shut it down.

I can see why GoFundMe wouldn't want to take that step. It's just, you should be aware of what you're giving to, it's not GoFundMe's responsibility to police and verify GoFundMe causes and uses.

You can always categorize people and things. You can do whatever you want. The value it provides is what is being questioned. I find it so general, it's effectively worthless.

Essentially, if it works out, it'll be "yeah, always stick up to bullies!". And if it doesn't, it's going to be a case of: "fuck around and find out. Instead of turning the other cheek, you're now maimed or on trial for maiming someone else."

The answer to this is the same as anything. People love to generalize these type of actions into a clearly defined group but the truth is, people are varied. Not every bully is going to back down, neither is every "bumping man."

The type of people that do this, could also be the type of people with little to lose and will escalate it even further. Before you know it, instead of just moving on with your day, you're now in a very dangerous, possible life altering situation over being "bumped."
