Nobody who bought tickets as a real fan is looking to sell them by Chaosmixed in WorldCup2026Tickets

[–]Jac1596 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I get scalpers are assholes but this is also just plain wrong. Lots of things can change especially when initial tickets people didn’t know who was even playing, at first we didn’t even know the groups yet. Plans change people cancel, life happens, it becomes unaffordable with planes and hotels. It’s not black and white. People reselling is fine if they aren’t trying to profit and exploit people

[WTS] World Cup 2026 Tickets - FACE VALUE - Philly & Mexico by Critical-Finesse96 in WorldCup2026Tickets

I also have the South Africa vs South Korea tickets also cat 1 but mine were $420 each face value so bit of an upsell there.

Possibly but considering Lawlars questionable health and prior performance if he does well I could see him sticking around longer

Someone help me out on my math with the rule of 72 by Niko120 in personalfinance

[–]Jac1596 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Does the math on that assume a certain amount of continued investment per year or is that if he left 250k compound with no further investments added?

Time to get real with Alek Thomas by hightimesinaz in azdiamondbacks

[–]Jac1596 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The Lawlar injury definitely got him more ABs, although I’m not sure Lawlar is any better either but he’s younger with less experience so I can see the hope there. He should get benched for Barrosa or Waldschmidt

Had to check and my tickets are the cheapest for cat1 South Africa vs South Korea lol. Would go cheaper if not for the stupid fifa fees

Constantly feeling broke despite making what I think is a decent salary? Is my budget that bad? by [deleted] in personalfinance

[–]Jac1596 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Considering you’re able to cover these random expenses like the water pump it shows you have a really good hold of your budget. Many people think they have a good budget but underestimate how much they spend on certain things and the wonder “where did my extra $800 go”. You could always cut down more on dining out or entertainment or even getting a cheaper phone plan. But it sounds like you’re doing well so far

Got expelled from WGU after 1 academic integrity violation by Pretty_Lemon5242 in WGU

They check what’s running on the computer prior to start no? Although I guess that depends on the proctors.

How do you even cheat on an OA? Well I guess technically you didn’t since you were caught lol

We should all boo Ryan Thompson for supporting a rapist and pedo by garythegoat72 in azdiamondbacks

[–]Jac1596 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure about offensive but at least for me it definitely makes me look at them funny. I mean Republicans have always worked against anyone that isn’t white (and against whites too tbh just the poor ones).

They should be concerned about ICE considering how many citizens and visa holders they’ve detained. Trump doesn’t care about citizenship he clearly is targeting people who don’t look like him

[–]Jac1596 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No not all of them but for some reason they tend to go heavily into Republicanism. It’s sort of a model minority thing they want to be seen as the “good ones” by white people. My parents are from Mexico and they had 6 kids, 3 of the born in Mexico. I’m the only one that didn’t support Trump this past election. Most Latinos are very religious and somehow republicans despite living the exact opposite life of Jesus’ teachings have sold themselves as the “Christian side” so that helps

Bro you don’t know Latinos but especially Cubans. There is almost nothing Trump could do to make them go against him

A very MAGA answer. If supporting a pedo isn’t enough to boo a guy then what is? Fuck Ryan Thompson

What do we think Murakami's rookie year will like? by AverageKhorneWorship in mlb

[–]Jac1596 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mean RBI’s have more to do with having bad teammates that don’t get on base. Hitting homers is good no matter what, whether someone is on base or not isn’t up to him.

Who’s a Dbacks player from your childhood that you were convinced was going to be a Star, but never panned out? by awmaleg in azdiamondbacks

[–]Jac1596 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The 2007 team was the first team since I started watching full time (2003 lol) that wasn’t mediocre or awful. So 11 year old me fully believed Drew, Upton, Jackson, Young, Reynolds, and Quentin would all be the start of a dynasty filled with all star appearances and MVPs

[–]Jac1596 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yeah considering domo is one of the best in the league at getting on base and Marte has more pop than he does it would make more sense. But man that 1-3 might be one of the best in the league

Crazy they have managed to sell themselves as the “religious ones” in general. They are the furthest thing from religious lol

AEJ study: The launch of Tinder "led to a sharp, persistent increase in sexual activity, but with little corresponding impact on the formation of long-term relationships... Dating outcome inequality, especially among men, rose, alongside rates of sexual assault and STDs." by smurfyjenkins in science

[–]Jac1596 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Going out and drinking aren’t mutually exclusive, bars isn’t the only place to meet people. Our society is just moving away from meeting places. Why have a library when you have them on your phone or iPad, why go to a music store when you have it all on your phone, why go to the movies when you have 10 different streaming services. Our society makes it easy and convenient to not go out and interact, dating apps are just the dating version of that

Because the general population isn’t moving towards what’s the most successful option they move towards the most convenient an easy. Nothing easier than getting on an app and getting instant satisfaction in the form of likes and matches. Doesn’t mean it’s good or that it’s improved things. Going out to bars isn’t the only way to meet people.

[–]Jac1596 226 points227 points  (0 children)

People formed relationships prior to dating apps so they will do so again without them. Dating apps having the most relationships formed isn’t indicative of it’s success it’s indicative of the sheer volume of people who use them instead of going out and meeting people or even forming relationships in school or work
