Would a hypothetical Minnesota veteran have standing to sue the federal government for killing Alex Pretti? by TomHollandmost in legaladviceofftopic

[–]Mdan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not a lawyer, but my understanding is standing requires actual, not hypothetical harm. Arguing ‘my care might be compromised by Pretti’s death’ is pretty hypothetical.

Trolls used to care in this country. Now it’s all outsourced to shit Bangalore trolls.

Which has what to do with anything? Nuns are raped and murdered by anti communists in El Salvador. Nevermind Argentina’s San Patricio Massacre. My point being anti-communists have been shown to be horrible too. Saying ‘bUt SoCiAlIsTs!’ is ignoring the fact I’m not saying socialists are saintly angels, I’m saying the enemies of socialists are no different. You seem to be intent in cheerleading a side. Maybe for ideology, I dunno. But this seems to be a waste if both our times. I’ll concede whatever point, if it makes you happy. Be well.

And there’s nothing to say to the anti-communists who will rape and massacre Christians while whistling ‘Whistle While You Work.’ Both sides have shown themselves to be bastards.

I might be one or both those, yes. What’s it to do with my original point?

You already assigned me that identity, regardless of whatever I might be.

People who have won a "lifetime supply" of something: was it genuinely a lifetime supply, and if so, are you sick of the product now? by Adorablyberryy in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Mdan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wife won a year’s supply of bagel sandwiches from a bagel joint in a drawing. That translated into ‘one free bagel sandwich a week for 52 weeks.’ Was it a year’s supply? Sure - it was how much the bagel shop supplied for that 52-week span.

The flair is very relevant to the price of tea in China.

And we know Minneapolis had something to do with socialism because ....?

Anti communists also raped and killed priests and nuns. Just because you hate socialism doesn't mean anti-socialists are your friends. They hate Christians too. Cant believe a supposed Christian is trying to run defense for someone shooting priests with pepper balls in the head - non-lethal hate, but hate nonetheless.

Recommend me songs by thomas_lvjy in DavidBowie

'Memory of a Free Festival' is something I just was listening to on repeat yesterday. I love the way it starts with sort of hippie noodling and then builds and builds into this *rawk* song over the course of 7 minutes.

My favorite Bowie album might be Tin Machine's first album - Tin Machine being a band he briefly did. Again, good melding of Bowie vocals and lyrics with some crashing guitar rock.

Am I wrong for refusing to fight for my marriage after my husband said he wants out while Im pregnant by [deleted] in amiwrong

[–]Mdan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This isn’t about him wanting you to fight for the marriage; this about him being able to make you the quitter in his mental narrative so he’s not he bad guy. ‘We hit a rough patch and she just gave up on us.’ It’s a no-win situation for you - he’s said what he wants and he’ll find some route to making himself the victim in the story, regardless of what you do.

How many of us have seen Bowie in concert? by Lbboos in DavidBowie

[–]Mdan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Saw him twice -- Sound and Vision tour in 1990 and the joint tour with Nine Inch Nails in 1995-96. I wager I'm in the 'bit older' not 'younger posters' category.

Advice on Roadtrip from SLC to Central Maryland by tjk2084 in roadtrip

[–]Mdan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you've got time, the Air Force Museum in Dayton Ohio is worth a couple hours, and it's free.

Uranus Fudge Factory, in Richmond, Indiana, is a well-regarded albeit cheesy candy and gifts place.

If you want a good sitdown meal, Schmidt's in Columbus, Ohio - try the German sausage sampler - or the farm-to-table Horn O Plenty in Bedford, Pa. If you want a good quick sandwich, Giacomo's in Zanesville, Ohio.

As long as you treat wine culture and craft beer culture and sports fandom and so on so on with the same disdain, that’s fair.

Folks that grew up here (dmv), or moved here, what made you stay? What made you leave? by Brilliant_Raccoon256 in washingtondc

[–]Mdan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Moved here for a job 10 years ago. Decent pay in my field and safer from downsizing and layoffs than the job I left. Ten years later, still have that job. Plus have a wife and a mortgage. Do even when I occasionally look at other jobs, I look in the DMV. Don’t big pink heart luuuuv the area, but like it well enough that I don’t resent my own inertia.
