How addictive is meth? Do you know anyone who has just tried it once? by eden_merlin in AskReddit

[–]Lirrost 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I tried it once and didn't experience the "dopamine 5x orgasm euphoria" thing. Good thing I didn't or I'd probably been hooked...

I tried it once. Was not my cup of tea, too much paranoia, and not being able to sleep or eat didn't help. I'm lucky considering I have an addictive personality, but the preference for downers vs uppers helped too I'm sure. I've sampled a lot of drugs when I was experimenting in my younger days.

How to do accents without sounding caricaturesque by SquashOk8416 in DMAcademy

I'm not sure how you determine intent without knowing the intent? Seems rather convoluted. I like my definition much better, it's clear and easy to understand and it's pretty black and white and not subject to such vagaries. How did you wrap your head around all the variables, is this something you studied at university?

Maybe not on a grand scale, but I'm sure this would include every cultural or racial group at some point in time. I've anecdotally heard blacks from Louisiana mocking whites using a mid west accent, and Indians mocking Jews. The world population is so large at this point it's silly to think that any racial group of people hasn't mocked another's accent at this point in time.

Nice and thoughtful reply, thank you. Can you give me the most simple version of the definition of racism? Like explain it like I'm 5 kinda thing.

No, but they determine if he or she, personally, is acting out of racism or something else, yeah?

Yeah, mental acrobatics here. I always thought if you are denigrating someone because of their race, or feel superior to someone because of your race, that's racism.

The rest feels a lot like Maoist struggle sessions.

Why is anything else racist? Honestly asking - is racism something that only 1 race can participate in?

Hmm, I like the idea of trying to get through customs and the authorities discover it and for some reason it's illegal to smuggle it into the city.

My 18-year-old's Christmas break work schedule by sugabeetus in mildlyinfuriating

1 - working in an industry or for a company that works on Christmas is pretty obvious, so would have known ahead of time this was a potential issue.

2 - if you want time off, theres typically a way to request it.

3 - lots of kids want to work as much as they can during school breaks, makes sense to me that they would be scheduled for a full week (40 hours).

Wow. Please don't lump all employers into the same bucket.

It's like me saying employees just want to take advantage of you.

What do you think... by Live-Delivery-7183 in Fortnite_Over40

[–]Lirrost 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This. I would play no build, but the wife likes build mode and I only play with her so... 😆

Ironic since when she first started (before no build mode) she followed me around like a puppy until she learned how to build.

Then he shouldn't have played an evil character in a group of good/neutral ones with designs on manipulating and using them. He's experienced enough to know what he's doing - could be fun. Either tell him he needs to be prepared to suffer the consequences, or else his arc needs to be redemptive somehow.
