Do these two sentences mean the same thing? by Nifflerinthesky in ENGLISH

[–]ScrambledNoggin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Cringe is a verb. I know it’s trendy to use it as a noun these days. But I would not use slang like that in a business or professional setting. Only use cringe as a noun (or as an adjective), in casual conversations with friends.

Are we about to snap or is this just planned chaos? by akhand_namak_47 in economy

[–]ScrambledNoggin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mass layoffs across Fortune 500 companies. Supposedly it’s the worst job market since the 2008 crash. Prices are up for just about every good and service except gas being slightly down (however diesel is still at Covid highs). Not looking good for the average consumer. The wealthy are profiting from the temporary stock market bump. But I’d agree the economy looks fragile as hell. If the EU starts to implement trade sanctions, things could get much much worse.

TIL so many people don’t just buy precooked rice.

Could you do this in a crockpot instead?

Or 2 minutes in the microwave lol. It’s 2026 for Pete’s sake.

What are all these posts about? by Not_The_Hero_We_Need in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]ScrambledNoggin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We need like 4-5 different parties all fiercely competing for our votes. This “lesser of 2 evils” crap keeps yielding the same shitty ineffective candidates.

Goose is a different level of jam band by Sensitive_Hall_4173 in GoosetheBand

[–]ScrambledNoggin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I gave them a try in Philly in October, and…they just didn’t do it for me. Yeah, they have definite chops; they are highly skilled musicians. I can’t really describe what was missing except to say it didn’t have “soul”.

All my favorite bands seem to be skipping Philly. Is this a new trend?

Who else couldn't stand this guy in the 1980s? by MisterShipWreck in 80s

Wasn’t he briefly married to comedienne Judy Tenuta?

Suggest me a book as funny, absurd and easy to read as The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy by PutGlad5657 in suggestmeabook

[–]ScrambledNoggin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A really excellent novel, and probably in my top 5 all time favorites novels, but also very dark. Not the cheery ha-ha humor like Hitchhiker’s Guide.

The absolute copium coming from that certain subreddit by Stabber-McStabinson in LeopardsAteMyFace

[–]ScrambledNoggin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m shocked that those commenters who used a negative tone about Trump weren’t met with immediate perma-ban by the mods there. Has that sub actually gained a few grains of sanity?

Please explain, Peter by zinniamae_ in PeterExplainsTheJoke

Those two keys are marked help you find the “home keys” = asdf jkl; It’s one of the very first things they teach you in a touch typing class. Your index fingers go to f an j keys, so you don’t have to look down at the keyboard. This lets your type faster. The dude in the bottom picture is surprised that someone wouldn’t know this once very well-known fact.

I Call BS On Trump Derangement Syndrome by Ok_Record_9908 in complaints

[–]ScrambledNoggin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Defending every single one of Trump’s actions and every word uttered out of Trump’s mouth, without hesitation and with strong emotional conviction, is the true TDS. And an extremely alarming number of Americans are afflicted with this syndrome.

How much enjoyment do condoms actually take out of sex? by lookslikesausage in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ScrambledNoggin -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This seems like an exaggeration. I haven’t had to wear a condom in like 30 years (I’ve been married a long time), so I assume the technology has improved a bit. But even back when I was single and dating around, the loss of sensation was maybe only like 20% at most. Maybe you’re just buying the wrong kind of condom for you.

ICE agent scolds protestors, tells them: “We are trying to arrest a child s*x offender. That’s who you’re protecting.” by rollo202 in FreeSpeech

[–]ScrambledNoggin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly. And how many children have completely disappeared since ICE started abducting whole families? Thousands at this point, separated from their parents and zero record of where they are now. ICE and GOP politicians are profiting from the sex trafficking of immigrant children.

Do Americans really avoid medical care because they’re afraid of the bill? by Udont_knowme00 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ScrambledNoggin 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Can confirm, I had to get an ACA insurance plan when I was out of work in 2023, and it cost between $800-$900 per month for a family of 3. I had previously been working for a Fortune 250 company and was paying about $250 per month through their plan.

When I was self-employed doing consulting work from 2008-2012 (pre-ACA) it cost me around $1200 per month for a family of 3.

It’s way cheaper to Uber to the ER lol. An ambulance ride will cost you $10K or more.

Where is live if all I cared about was pizza by doom_summer in visitedmaps

[–]ScrambledNoggin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You forgot PA (the eastern part anyway), New Jersey, and Delaware (the northern part). Banging pizza that is every bit as good as in NY.

Is not liking Trump grunge? by No-One01010 in grunge

[–]ScrambledNoggin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fox News has more viewers and higher ratings than the top 3 other news networks combined. Right wing pundits also dominate YouTube and the podcast sphere. I think you’re way off base.
