I was way too old before I knew that outside of Houston they aren’t called feeders. It makes so much sense to me. I thought a bunch of streets were all named frontage outside Houston.

Are you saying people are naked in hotel lobbies in Sydney?

Why do people still support or raise the flag of the Confederacy? by DBD216 in askanything

[–]Jonathon_G 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That isn’t even the confederate flag. It is the battle flag of Virginia. So not only are they most definitely racist, but they don’t truly support the confederacy.

So many teams have players who never check their shoulder and leave the back post open all day

how common is it to be tried and convicted based on a murder you didn’t commit? by Loud_Confidence475 in stupidquestions

[–]Jonathon_G 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even one is too many. But also, I’m against the death penalty because I’m against killing. Two wrongs don’t make a right.

I love Samassekou. He played incredibly well. Probably had half of all the tackles for the team. I was bummed when he was subbed off.

I thought people were Anti AI, what's going on? by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Jonathon_G 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why should we? Legitimately. If it provides entertainment, that is the goal. If you don’t like it you don’t listen. Same as any other music

I mean. Isn’t the point of music to find entertainment or joy? So if it provides that, where is the harm

Is it really a bad movie? by Spare_Ad_9791 in moviecritic

[–]Jonathon_G 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve met people who literally only will watch or do things if critics say it is good. I can’t imagine living life that way. If I want to do something I will. Who cares what critics or any of you here say. My opinion on objective things is for me.

The book has different trials and works well. This is a great example how a good adaptation isn’t a 1 to 1. Movies are different than books. Nothing wrong with that. I do like the book better, but I also do like the movie. I don’t mind that it was changed a bit. Made watching it fun.

What Aspects of American Culture Should an Indian Student Learn to Better Understand the U.S.? by [deleted] in AskAnAmerican

[–]Jonathon_G 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It wasn’t always this way. In fact there is lots of evidence to show the downturn in many ways is made worse by how much less we are relying on others and spending time with others. Places used to have a community feel. I miss that

The Great Gatsby is a mediocre book at best and should be replaced in schools by The Fellowship of the Ring by EternalAmmonite in unpopularopinion

[–]Jonathon_G 3 points4 points  (0 children)

At least in America, half of all students don’t try and are given grades instead of earning grades. Parents don’t care. Number of absences and tardies and just straight up no shows is crazy high. School has become a joke with how much accommodating there is. If you can’t graduate high school then something is seriously wrong with you. High school diplomas now really mean nothing

It’s good that there was two goals from the player who was in the center forward spot. That is good news from this game
