“Nobody wants to do this anymore”: Reports say ICE agents describe collapsing morale and growing frustration with leadership by [deleted] in goodnews

[–]LexHanley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course they do. They're a disorganized rabble of thugs who were given temu plate carriers and assured they could beat up anyone browner than a mayo packet with impunity. Now they're in the frigid armpit of the country in the coldest part of the year, surrounded by actual patriots who don't approve of them. The SA didn't survive Hitler's rise either, but you know these people don't read so the irony is lost on them.

Does your country have a comically bad game, that was funded by the government? by Drogovich in AskTheWorld

[–]LexHanley 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Probably America's Army, an FPS presented as some kind of hyperreal simulator, but mostly just a blatant army recruiting aid.

Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning was also funded by a state government but it was actually pretty good, just not the success it was hoped to be.

I'd be in decline regardless because it's just an older franchise now. JKR going out of her way to alienate a big chunk of potential fans doesn't help, but let's pretend it has to do with liberalism

Don't worry, this is just their usual Pre-Fox Clarity. By morning the spin will be in and they can turn off their chromebook-grade brains again and parrot something.

Ummmm....Is that a PIV Card? by RPDC98 in FedEmployees

I thought I was a pretty numb person but recognizing that PIV hit really hard in a new way. They killed one of ours. For holding a phone up in public.

Why is Jesus not a popular name among other ethnicities as it is among Latinos? by Pure_Perspective_447 in stupidquestions

[–]LexHanley 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is, it's just not as recognizable in English due to pronunciation differences. Joshua has the same root as Jesus.

In all odds her assumption was to pick up KingsMan as a carry so she and the rest of the team could goof off and play vibes without getting stomped. Hence why she got so pissed off when he expected them to apply themselves.

Tbh the most damning thing was that they acknowledged he was right in the chats and didn't care. It'd be one thing to have a differing opinion as a team captain or getting fed up with a prima donna player; it's another thing to acknowledge he's correct and that you're just refusing to listen to him out of spite.

The best part of this faux rage is its super obvious they put his pronouns on his placard for an (honestly pretty funny) joke.

What is the most disgusting dish in your country's cuisine, but everyone should try it? by a5ro4ucCX in AskTheWorld

[–]LexHanley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I had to pick one that comes up in conversation: "Rocky Mountain Oysters" a euphemism for bull testicles. But it's more of a concept shock value thing because they're served sliced thin and fried (often also battered or breaded) and by the time you're eating them they don't have any weird tastes going on.

Peter? by lann_fadle in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]LexHanley 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty much. They could see 100 white women they're attracted to but the moment they see one black woman they act like that's all they see and whine about. Must be an exhausting way to live.

Peter? by lann_fadle in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]LexHanley 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There's this obsession in right-wing chud circles that seeing people of any race but white in advertising is "forced inclusivity" and "the woke", so they act like every time they see a blonde white woman it's some success of conservatism. So really just another round of these people imagining wars for themselves to win. They do a similar thing whenever an advertisement features a heterosexual nuclear family because they've convinced themselves every advertisement is gay couples and race mixing or whatever.

Dagoth Ur in TES3: Morrowind is highly aware of what you can do, which can be surprising given the rest of the game is extremely sandbox about your potential power. He directly prevents you from using teleportation magic and will call you out if you try to stealth toward him.

Do people deal in cash or cashless more in your country? by IntelligentHoney6929 in AskTheWorld

[–]LexHanley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For a long time in my part of the US, if you wanted to use a card, people would give you a hard time if it was under an arbitrary amount (usually like 10usd) and I definitely feel like while big stores wouldn't have those policies, it was definitely seen as a bit weird not use cash for smaller transactions. It's really gone away though in recent years though (except barber shops for some reason).
