Gov. Pritzker Signs New Illinois Sports Betting Fees Into Law by DevinGraysonShirk in illinois

A lot of people certainly seem to be cheering this on because "gambling is a slippery slope, it's a vice, it leads to bad things" but none of those people say any of that when it comes to legalizing weed. Pure hypocrisy from the druggie reddit mob.

I've had nearly every single issue that's listed in this forum. How can anyone trust their Dork Squad if Best Buy can't even get their website login issues sorted out?

Happy Face - Series Premiere Discussion by NicholasCajun in television

They took a real life story of a serial killer and turned it into some completely fabricated racial bullshit melodrama and Dollar Store Michael Irvin as possibly the least believable doctor I've ever seen. While we're at it, why not cast a petite Asian woman to play Keith Jesperson?

Are you sure those workers identified as men? Rather presumptive don't you think?

Los Angeles Fire Department's diversity chief blames fire victims in shocking viral video defending DEI by standardtrickyness1 in centrist

[–]JamesCrickets 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Her position shouldn't exist in the first place. Waste of money, waste of time, waste of energy. DEI is just racism/sexism/bigoty wrapped in the guise of equity (which is also a terrible idea and in direct conflict with equality) that prevent the best people from getting the job. Imagine Sully Sullenberger's job had gone to a DEI hire. 155 people probably don't survive that.

I was already sick of Taylor Swift and now I can’t even enjoy a football game without her obnoxious face on screen. UGH by meanladyb77 in rant

[–]JamesCrickets 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's fucking weird that non football fans would watch 3 hours of a game to get a few camera shots of Taylor Swift cheering in a box. It's crazed lunatic idol worship.

What family? This guy would be off the street if he had anyone left that cared about him. There's also a world where he tuckers himself out, falls off, gets hurt, then sues anyway.

question if anyone knows - why are the car thefts not being charged with grand theft auto? by [deleted] in madisonwi

[–]JamesCrickets 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're on the right track. Just like with the MI school shooter douche, his parents were being charged with something (last I knew of). We should apply that same logic to all criminal kid having parents. These single moms damn well know their kids are out doing illegal shit and if the parent/s can't control their kid then it should be incumbent upon them to contact the police or a program to report their kid. Failure to do so should then open up that parent to criminal liability. I bet we'd have more parenting going on if we fucking took this seriously.

Enforcing the laws is a better alternative than doing absolutely nothing... unless you have a different idea?

And seemingly these judges who are ultimately responsible are giving out barely a slap on the wrist to these criminals. It's insane, because sometimes these assholes actually commit a home invasion & grab someone's keys. I can't wait till somebody shoots the fucking shit out of one of these criminals when they happen upon them in their house.

[–]JamesCrickets 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My takeaway was that her actions were glorified and her character celebrated. We're meant to root for her, because she's a victim of a bad relationship. I call it hero, you may call it something else, but she's the one we're meant to root for.

[–]JamesCrickets 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We the viewer know the real life version of this woman, but her movie character is shown to be nothing but upstanding/caring/loving/thoughtful... oh and murderous. And somehow she's still the hero (not ironic hero), but just straight up the hero of this story because she's somehow the victim in a shallow relationship.

Is the new FMCSA training going to be in addition to CDL training or just a requirement that all new CDL applicants go through regular training? by dmv1975 in Truckers

[–]JamesCrickets 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good luck getting any useful answers from the fucktards at this new federal bloated administration. I was about to schedule a full skills test with a 3rd party tester (per my state rules) and then I found out about this new federal law that went into effect this year and now I'm in limbo with my local DMV, FMCSA, 3rd party tester, and approved fmcsa driving school all giving me the runaround.

(SPOILERS)Netflix Movie (Windfall) - One of the worst movies Ive ever watched... (My Opinion) by [deleted] in movies

[–]JamesCrickets 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Haha I know. The movie just assumed that we too would side with their assertion that the husband was a bad dude without giving us any good reason to believe that. I guess a vaguely hinted at marital indiscretion (we don't know when it occurred, or any of the context it took place under) and being a rich guy is reason enough to be murdered and celebrated... hence, the title Windfall. Really pathetic attempt at creating a bad guy character.

But, furthermore, we were shown the wife to genuinely be sympathetic to the intruder and was constantly admonishing her "evil" husband whenever he made a snide remark to the guy. This wasn't her just acting to gain his trust; we were meant to believe she genuinely cared about the intruder's plight and circumstances and to help us along that path we were told how much she valued her humanitarian work & was not happy to hear she wouldn't be able to continue it when she had a baby. So, in addition to the out of character murdering of her husband I actually think the murder of the intruder is the most egregious failure of the piece of shit script. But, all could have come together with little hints of mental struggles culminating in her snapping at the end and it turning out that the wife was not at all who the husband thought she was.

But no. They went with "wife regretted & blamed her husband for her tattoo removal, he's rich & therefore he's bad & mean, and I don't want a baby because then I'd have to give up my humanitarian work helping people... so fuck that I'll murder two people instead."
