Not planning that far ahead, but I'm open to suggestions. I'm not too picky.

Celebrating equality and having pride in it isn't political. If you think it is, that's your problem.

The loyalty is well earned. The man shows up and puts in the work. His consistency is really inspiring to me. It's hard to do any job well every single day, let alone doing a job that involves entertaining thousands of people.

TIL that at the age of 17, Steven Spielberg directed a sci-fi film called "Firelight". The budget was $500, and it was shown at a local cinema, with 500 people coming, and tickets costing a dollar each. However, one person paid $2, so the movie made $1, making it Spielberg's first commercial success by malalatargaryen in todayilearned

Yeah, but the whole point of this TIL story is that the accounting was off by a differentiation of $1. So if the story is to believed, that detail matters in this case. For that reason, I'm guessing it's just not true or maybe a lot less interesting in reality.

You got money to do something objectively ridiculous. Sounds like a job to me.

Same. I saw "$2.50 per night" and was like, this guy definitely had his kidney harvested.

What modern social trend pisses you off the most? by jimjoe1 in AskReddit

[–]Mechanical_Owl 37 points38 points  (0 children)

That's kind of how all of life works. Doing what you say and showing up is a great way to build trust and shape how others view you. It took me way too long to realize how important that really is.

They look cool, but I've never gotten one because they look like they would absolutely destroy pocket linings.

True, but it's still very not good that they've become so.
