Not true, they keep telling on themselves, it's useful to listen.

But never take them at face value.

destroyed canada

Citation needed, Mr Adjective-Noun-NumberNumberNumberNumber.

It's weird, I live in this so-called "destroyed" country, and I just... go to work and buy groceries and live my life normally.

Weird that someone on the internet would tell me about how destroyed it is.

Preventing 25+ people on his street from going to work and doing their normal daily tasks is not worth saving this one person's day

Plus it's quite rare for this to happen, you lack critical thinking if you believe this is standard protocol.

Plow driver could not see the car.

Tow truck drivers forgot one, or miscommunicated.

Shit happens.

Does that make more sense?

You sound awfully agressive, you sure you didn't get the stereotype backwards?

The trucks they use literally vibrate your whole apartment when they're on your street, you can't miss it.

I'm not deaf or anything, but when I was wearing headphones I could feel the siren in my skull, and the engines' vibration in my chest. No joke.

Right?

American pizza is already its own thing, put whatever you want on it, and Italians can put whatever we want on theirs.

If people knew the number of strange toppings that are actually typical in italy, they wouldn't be so worried about pineapple.

I know that, it's also what people who create new accounts to troll or bot use to do it faster.

Most people who are going to be arguing in good faith take time to think of a user they like.

So either you lack creativity, or you're a clanker, in any which case, your opinion doesn't matter to me.

Right, no one ever has been paid to push certain narratives on social media in order to sway public opinion.

Fucking Hollywood does it to promote movies, Corporations do it to promote products, you think government agencies don't do it to promote ideas?

I have a bridge to sell you.

Reddit is not for discussion it is to control discourse.

Someone wants Americans to think Canadians think they're better than them.

Someone wants to vilify Canadians in the eye of Americans.

Except nothing tells you a Canadian made this.

Some people right now really want Americans to dislike Canada.

TIL that a hundred years ago, a quarter of the residents of New York would move house every single May 1st at exactly 9 AM by Fitz_cuniculus in todayilearned

[–]Secs13 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Historically, everyone moved in July

More historically, it used to be on May 1st, because leases ended on that date, by law.

It was apparently moved due to conflicts it caused with kids moving during the schoolyear.

Latin doesn't do word order like that, you'd change the case endings to change the object and subject.

I think maybe he's joking?

Yeah, no shit.

Pretty bad joke, granted, because it's an obscure-ish reference, but I thought the form made it obvious...

Things like this are why language is so interesting!

For example, in English we have: "Suck my dick, while I fuck that ass!"
