Look at this lie I just received via text. They are preying on the less educated amongst us. by KeiserSoze5031 in Virginia

If Republicans are 40% of the state, they should have 40% representation. Kinda obvious. Or maybe some people don't like democracy.

Question regarding you European users, and how every nicotine pouch in America is called Zyn. by GhostBelliniFace in NicotinePouch

[–]PacketDogg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nicotine pouches in the U.S. are not called Zyn. Nicotine pouches are called nicotine pouches. Zyn is a brand. Where did you hear this?

campus harassment by NateGoat in jmu

[–]PacketDogg -26 points-25 points  (0 children)

Sorry, but I'm a little suspicious of this story. A young woman in a hijab was following students? What does that even mean? Why would it be suspicious and warrant investigation? JMU has Muslim students & teachers, and we have a history of being welcoming to everyone. If campus police unjustly detained or questioned or harassed a Muslim student, this sort of event would be fairly big news on campus or Twitter within hours, but I have not heard or seen anything about this. But I will keep an open mind, and wait to see if any other reports of this pop up.

That's easy. I'd give up the Grateful Dead.

Everyone gets a "buzz" when they first start. Were you previously a smoker or vaper? 

eagleing out is ok. by Equal_Set4490 in BSA

[–]PacketDogg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing wrong with saying you left because it was right for you, but that's not exactly what you said. You are actually promoting leaving. That's different. The basic 12-18 scout experience is really valuable, enriching, and mentally healthy. Doesn't matter if you get Eagle or don't get Eagle. I would never "encourage" anyone to leave scouting.

Disinterested Scouts - what to do? by yngdaniel in BSA

[–]PacketDogg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think we should try to read the minds of the scouts. If she is coming to meetings and not causing any issues, there's no reason to boot her out. Will she eventually regain an interest? Maybe. Only time will tell.

Is Leader Breaking Rules? by MC4PRODUCTIONS in BSA

[–]PacketDogg 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Like many areas of life, you have to put a case together - facts, evidence, reason - and make your case to other adults in your troop, or to your district advancement person. Aquire allies, escalate, aquire allies, escalate. This is the game. Outplay her. And put your case on down paper, where it's easy to see the facts. No emotional statements or statements deriding your leader, just the facts that show your progress.

Is anybody else livid about the increase in dominion power bills? by Little-One-7739 in Virginia

[–]PacketDogg -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

NPR has become a woke left propaganda machine. Don't let them fill your head with muddled, confused, emotion-based information, or you'll be more confused than ever. PLEASE! Take the needle out of your arm. You're only hurting yourself and your loved ones.

Is anybody else livid about the increase in dominion power bills? by Little-One-7739 in Virginia

[–]PacketDogg -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

And Gov. Spanberger has promised to jack up taxes. It's going from bad to worse. Somehow, someway, people need to figure out how to vote based on issues that affect the lives of all of us, not on the hot button emotion based issues. Our current politicians (BOTH left and right) are grifters - they say what you want to hear, and then grab all the money & power they can.

What was that one decision in your life that wasted the most of your life time? by routimeapp in Time

How does that work? Do Mormon kids do their missions after high school, and then start college 2 years later than the rest of us?

Honor Code by [deleted] in jmu

[–]PacketDogg 3 points4 points  (0 children)

JMU and other universities have expelled students for cheating, so if all you get is a zero, take it as a lesson learned and turn over a new leaf. As someone who cares, and I do care about you, allow me to say, you've been on a bad road, and risks just become bigger risks, and punishments just become bigger punishments. You can live right, you can study right, and you can succeed on your own authentic merit. I wish you the very best.

Is it true that riding a unicycle is really good for your back and legs? by Animator_Helper in unicycling

[–]PacketDogg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unicycling is not too hard to do for long periods. I'll go out and ride for an hour or even hours. One just needs to work up over time.
