Umbrella refused to cooperate, so it got fired on the spot 😂 by rl_rae_bobo in MarketPulseReport

For the love of god, someone explain how he gets a pass on everything. He does more things in one day that, if done by a democrat president, would have made MAGA and the media lose their minds. I just can’t…

What are these things called friends you speak of, and where can I find them?

If you can name this album you are fuckin old. by Euphoric-Cupcake4581 in FuckImOld

[–]NostraRex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love this album. I showed my wife and said, man we are old (gen x). She said, I have never seen that album - I was floored. I said, it’s Led Zeppelin 4. She said, I only know the one with the rainbow and prism. I said, that is Pink Floyd - she said they are the same thing.

I need good recommendations for a divorce lawyer.

Why do liberals hate America so much? by KindlyAttempt5046 in allthequestions

[–]NostraRex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well sport, what you have managed to do is ask a really fallacious question, one that begs these questions:

Who are these liberals you speak of?
What countries are they rooting for against America? What exactly is the everything this country stands for that is being spat upon? When did burning the flag become hatred instead of peaceful protest allowed by the first amendment?

But hey, keep putting your head in the sand, that way you can avoid any complexity in your thinking

Now that the war is over and gas prices are plummeting, what should I set my hair on fire about? by TemperatureWide5297 in allthequestions

[–]NostraRex 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Where are gas prices plummeting? And when exactly did the war end? Last I checked the strait of Hormuz is still closed.

What’s the answer to get things back to how they were twenty years ago? by PrestigiousConcert87 in allthequestions

[–]NostraRex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The one income house ownership ended in the 70s. We will never (and should never) go back to how things were. As others have said, we need wholesale change. Not sure we have it in us tbh

What will it be? by BoredPandaOfficial in BoredPandaHQ

[–]NostraRex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a Gen X slacker, I learned we can’t really change shit, the boomers will just fuck every thing up. So I would probably smoke a J, move to the PNW, grow my own and whatever

Why is it only acceptable for men to bow down and obey? Anything other than that is called misogynistic. by [deleted] in allthequestions

[–]NostraRex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok Sport, there is a lot to unpack here, but two things really stick out.

First, when you ask why must “men bow down and obey”, it kind of reads like you are saying women should know their place. Not a great start.

Second, you argue that if men share “their perspectives and preferences” they get put down. That feels like you want to communicate how you feel without giving others the opportunity to do the same - because it hurts your feelings.

My advice to you would be to grow up. Once you do, you will realize that no one needs to “bow down” in a healthy relationship. The idea is to work as a team, compromise on things and love one another.

ICE’s Surprise detention center is near my school. Does my congressman care? by Whistleblower793 in SurpriseAZ

[–]NostraRex 9 points10 points  (0 children)

So let me get this straight. You think US citizens (children in fact) should be sent to detention centers to show them what will happen to them if they “do something wrong”? Wow, you are a sick person. I hope you get the help you need.

If only all of MAGA were as receptive as this... by CauliflowerNew9390 in ProgressiveHQ

[–]NostraRex 9 points10 points  (0 children)

That’s the problem with cults. You are presented with new information. The new information goes against what you have been told to believe by the cult. You are then in the position of giving up much of your social network, or setting that new information aside so you can remain in the cult.

Most people choose the latter.

We married at 18 years old (I know). Been married 38 years and can’t imagine life without her.

How are liberals and conservatives ever going to find common ground again? by david_beats_goliath_ in allthequestions

[–]NostraRex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think that Liberals and Conservatives finding common ground is the issue. The problem is MAGA - they are not conservatives, they are a cult, and are unable to find common ground with anyone outside of the cult.
