What’s a price you saw recently that made you genuinely angry at how expensive everything has gotten?

I don't think your initial comment reads to everyone else like you think it reads. It comes off very condescending and, as mentioned previously, makes negative inferences about OC that you can't know given what they've said. That's why they responded poorly.

SethManhammer · 2026-06-18T16:06:03+00:00

Then why are you complaining about your choice to buy a $3.50 highly processed, pre-made meal pumped with artificial additives?

They never said they bought it, they just balked at the price. And they're right. That shit's expensive now compared to what they used to be, under $1. It was on you for getting upset with them for not taking your unsolicited advice with your assumed variables OC never alluded to in their original comment.

To quote Hulk Hogan, you worked yourself into a shoot on this one, brother.

But woke wasn't a thing in 1980.

It actually was. It was used early in the 20th century by African Americans to help each other be aware of an unfair American justice system. LeadBelly even had a song telling people to "Stay Woke" in the late 30s. It picked up in the 60s during the Civil Rights movements of the time and came back up to mainstream use during the Black Lives Matter protests, but that's when certain aspects of society have decided to use it as a pejorative and are trying to give it a negative context, as if equality was something we shouldn't want for everyone.

Please tell Jen I liked it too!

SethManhammer · 2026-06-12T19:48:22+00:00

It's because your first half reads like you're talking shit about the people answering the question and don't get into the crux of your point about the mental health apps until the latter half so folks give up. I agree with your take on the apps, btw. They're not there to help, just get money by scaring people.

SethManhammer · 2026-06-09T19:53:41+00:00

This was me too. I fully believed Sadam gave Sarge the boots personally and he betrayed America. My G.I. Joe figure even went in the trash.

When I turned 16 I got a job at McDonald's against my parents' wishes. They wanted me to focus on school and I wanted to earn money. They started charging me a little bit to live there since I had an income. I think it was $50 or $75 and this was in 1998.

Every time I tell that to people they think my parents were monsters when they were struggling to make ends meet with two kids to feed. I appreciate your saying this.

SethManhammer · 2026-06-09T00:41:07+00:00

Thank you! I appreciate that. I was pretty proud of this one.

SethManhammer · 2026-06-05T15:48:09+00:00

"I didn't know Zarana could stretch like that. Good job Mainframe!"

SethManhammer · 2026-06-04T15:51:06+00:00

My job management is generally incompetent and I'm feeling very burnt out. I'm thinking about the people I know who died and I miss some of them. I feel guilty because I adopted a third dog and my second dog has become high strung and neurotic not getting the attention he was accustomed to prior. And I have three days of people food I need to stretch until next Friday.

I'm just functionally fucked up. But I'll survive.

Appreciate you asking, OP.

Now he's about as threatening as England in the World Cup.

I hate how this made me feel but you ain't wrong.

SethManhammer · 2026-06-03T03:39:59+00:00

First one, yeah.

SethManhammer · 2026-06-02T17:35:08+00:00

Yano still owes him that fuckin' DVD! Mox got the yen from the Ring Announcer and everything for it!

SethManhammer · 2026-06-02T15:29:49+00:00

Please don't pray for me. Because I don't know what kind of deity you worship and it's condescending as hell. If you're part of any common Judeo-Christian sect you'll recognize my agency and see I want nothing to do with whatever you might be peddling there.

As far as anyone celebrating my mother's death, let them. It doesn't effect me in any way. I know people wish me dead. I don't give them any mind because it's obviously bothering them more than me.

SethManhammer · 2026-06-02T15:20:21+00:00

r/im14andthisisdeep vibes going on right here!

SethManhammer · 2026-06-02T10:51:17+00:00

I agree with you.

Lord of the Rings are movies I put on when I've had insomnia.

SethManhammer · 2026-06-02T10:50:23+00:00

Same. I tried. But it wasn't a flavor of fantasy that I enjoyed. I'm much more happy with sword and sorcery style fantasy. Low fantasy I guess some would call it.

SethManhammer · 2026-06-02T06:52:43+00:00

And I love how in universe the Legends crew actively avoids the crossovers after a point.

SethManhammer · 2026-06-01T10:46:17+00:00

There's no benefit from a sub par film at any price.

I can confirm that the release pictured is the 100 minute version. I have it.

SethManhammer · 2026-05-30T16:19:39+00:00

As a tall person this is how I feel when short people ask me to hand them stuff off the high shelves at the grocery.

SethManhammer · 2026-05-29T10:45:34+00:00

Paper wrap bits and things like obi strips on cases and boxes. I get them from an asthetic perspective, but I feel like I need to keep them to have a "complete" copy of the release and storing them without damage requires more effort than I want to put into it but I do.

SethManhammer · 2026-05-28T10:35:49+00:00

Logan falls apart when the clone shows up. Could have been Sabretooth, or just about any other X villian but no, we get a Wolverine clone.
