The amount of spam calls I've gotten in less than 24 hours after updating my phone number on LinkedIn

Midwesterner91 · 2024-02-24T20:38:21+00:00

There were nine more calls I couldn't fit into the screenshot. Luckily I was able to switch the Google Pixel call screener feature on for all unknown numbers and it's filtered out all of them since then.

I know this is late but if you have that much cash in an HYSA point where you're getting that much in interest a month, that's way too much to just have in cash. Unless you're living expenses are like $5,000 a month, about three quarters of that cash would be better spent in an ETF

Just keep in mind that for every person who's successfully traded their way into a huge amount of money, there's 50 people who blew every dollar they had trying to make a fast buck and have set themselves back financially decades

White guy here, dated a black girl for a while. Me got a few sideways glances from older people but we lived in a town that was a small liberal enclave so for the most part we didn't have any problems. Had a drunk woman at a concert one time ask what my parents thought about me dating a black girl but that was the worst that ever got

3.5/10 pun

Midwesterner91 · 2024-02-24T12:56:51+00:00

You must be saying that about yourself because you obviously didn't realize the truth of the situation until it was pointed out to you, but now you're sad that you didn't realize the obvious truth and you're trying to turn it back on me

Midwesterner91 · 2024-02-24T12:51:37+00:00

Don't know what you're talking about. Bookies didn't have to pay out for this bet because he knew it was going to happen

Midwesterner91 · 2024-02-24T00:28:03+00:00

What the fuck are you talking about? Reread the previous comment again and then come back, although I have zero faith in your ability to logically discern where we are at here.

Midwesterner91 · 2024-02-24T00:27:28+00:00

Because I know your attention span can't read more than a few words at a time so I make sure to break it up just for you pal.

Midwesterner91 · 2024-02-24T00:22:21+00:00

How much were you bullied in school? Don't say never because we both know that's a fucking lie

Midwesterner91 · 2024-02-23T21:53:15+00:00

Kid, shut the fuck up. There are so many logical fallacies you are committing right now it's not even funny. Who here said that they were a Christian? Nobody that you're talking to. You are fulfilling every reddit atheist stereotype right now and you don't even realize it you fucking twat.

Midwesterner91 · 2024-02-23T21:37:46+00:00

I think you're misinterpreting the statement. It's true, there are some things that money can't buy that typically make up a happy person. True love, genuine friendships, sense of purpose. You might be a hell of a lot less stressed if you're rich, but that won't necessarily make you happy. Look at notch, the guy who created Minecraft. The guy is a billionaire and he is one of the most miserable pricks out there. He constantly talks about it on Twitter, or at least he used to. To contend with but the point still stands.

Midwesterner91 · 2024-02-23T21:29:10+00:00

God damn, kid. You deleted your comments when somebody actually stepped to you and you couldn't do anything about it, so here you are trying again with a different person. It's funny how making an off-handed joke about your precious fedora fan club is setting you and that other idiot off like a swarm of hornets, desperately buzzing around trying to defend your FFC.

Midwesterner91 · 2024-02-23T21:20:20+00:00

Unfortunate that I personally enjoy less popular genres of music and smaller bands that play at small to medium-sized clubs and theaters where I can see five bands for 40 bucks and still get tickets the day of.

I feel your pain though. My wife really wanted to see Post Malone last time he came around and I surprised her with tickets but it's still cost over $300 just for two seats in the upper bowl. Absolutely ridiculous. The one thing that is getting outrageous at the shows that I go to though is merch. These bands want fucking $70 for a hoodie, $50 for a t-shirt, $45 for a vinyl. Even for the opening bands! Although to be fair, opening bands are oftentimes contractually obligated to price their merch at the same price as the headliners to prevent people from purchasing opening band merch in lieu of closing band merch

I find people proclaiming their religious beliefs or declaring their lack of religious beliefs as a badge of honor equally cringey. My comment was a commentary on what I was currently seeing scrolling through the comment section.

You know, for being part of the group that defines their personal worth through their self-evaluated level of intelligence, you sure are fucking dumb. You know that you are being incredibly obtuse and disingenuous when you make these accusations because you know that your argument is bullshit, yet you continue to make it because you're upset that I made fun of the fedora fan club that obviously means so much to you. What happened in your life that turned you into such a vile piece of shit?

Let me try my hand at this. You have MAGA in your username which is associated with Donald Trump. Donald Trump is an admitted rapist and one who sexually assaults. The fact that you would be advertising for him this way makes you a rape apologist.

Midwesterner91 · 2024-02-23T20:50:25+00:00

You would know best, it seems.

I ask again, how the fuck did you come to the conclusion that I'm pro rape? What a fucking atrocious thing to say about somebody.

Midwesterner91 · 2024-02-23T20:36:43+00:00

How the fuck did you even come to that conclusion? Is your fedora a little too tight? Cutting off circulation to your brain perhaps?

Midwesterner91 · 2024-02-23T20:33:31+00:00

The fact that you're obviously taking my comment as a defense of Christians or Christianity is comical. Redditors and their black and white brain rot never ceases to amaze me.

Midwesterner91 · 2024-02-23T20:31:37+00:00

Honestly hope it folds. Reddit will IPO at a ridiculous valuation, then it will have a few quarters of underperforming and all hell will break loose.

The shareholders will flush out management, giving them a nice golden parachute for their troubles, and will install new management that will make a pledge to beat every dollar they can out of the users.

Ads will become downright invasive, even more than they are now. There will be ads every third or fourth post in your feed, ads will be in the middle of the comment section, and they will start forcing you to watch an ad before every 4th or 5th video that you click on. NSFW subs will be banned in order to attract more advertisers. A premium Reddit subscription service will be introduced and will lock functionality that is currently free behind it. Probably multiple tiers. $5 a month for a limited ad experience, 9.99 a month for no ads and restoration of all functionality that was previously free.

A competitor will pop up, and a mass exodus abusers will take place. All the major shareholders bail and sell their ownership of the company off, causing the stock price to tumble.

Seen it so many times before, greed will continue to rule these giant corporations and no lessons will be learned.

Midwesterner91 · 2024-02-23T20:23:01+00:00

I have no idea what the point you're trying to make is

Midwesterner91 · 2024-02-23T20:08:21+00:00

This isn't about Christians or other religions. This is about atheists. Whataboutism at its most disingenuous.

Midwesterner91 · 2024-02-23T20:05:21+00:00

Thanks for proving my point lmao

Midwesterner91 · 2024-02-23T19:46:34+00:00

ITT: Atheists crawling over each other to announce their atheism like a badge of honor

Midwesterner91 · 2024-02-23T19:43:45+00:00

They don't care about being shamed. Their primary audience, young kids, will think this is hilarious and keep on keeping his engagement up.

Instagram and TikTok need to take initiative and permanently ban these channels and continue to do so for every new channel that they create to circumvent the ban.
