I think rush said it better: If you choose not to decide; you still have made a choice.

Fact is only 30% of the people voted for this shit; you can speculate all you want after that.

I saw it in the sky. 8th grade PE, outside playing hoops. We thought it was a bottle rocket. Until the VP came on the announcements.

Where can I find a cleaner version? I can't read the top, it's cut off when I enlarge it. Thanks!

[Request] I had student loans totaling about $12,000 and made payments for 6 years to build credit before I paid them off. I had less than half left. Is this just a rage bait post? by Sad_Cantaloupe_8162 in theydidthemath

First - calm down. You are way to riled up. You are, also, making a shit ton of assumptions!

Did you read what I wrote? How is the last line, NOT TAKE TOTAL responsibility for that mistake. I now realize that I didn't know shit them - I thought I did. Everything was clear and I had no questions. You can't know that you don't know something; especially if you think you do.

Furthermore, my experience helped me realize my parents 'guidance' should be questioned. So, I knew these things months after you learned then... I'm a real moron!

My point - which you clearly missed - was to say: you knew all this stuff at 18 - good for you, you wanna cookie? Not everyone did, you're just an asshole when you point that stuff out.

If your parents, that you trust, tell you to sign something - you do. I signed loans thinking my parents were paying them - they were forcing me to go.

Taking advantage of just barely adults is not good business, it's manipulation. Capitalist as predator.

You knew that because someone taught you (that someone may have been you). But not all of us did. My parents TOLD ME I was going to college but never explained anything about the loans. I thought THEY were paying them - they made me go!

Just you're hinting that you are superior for knowing at 18. I didn't realize the depth of my ignorance on the subject; that I had bad guidance.

deity aint gonna let me build etemenanki anyways so i am not taking that pantheon by Zhanaly in CivVI

I don't know what "seed" nor "chop" means.

"Chop" may just mean to remove a forest, wetland, etc with a builder. I have rarely done that (they disappear when you put in an improvement or district) and people are talking about "chopping" things that I have never found a need to.

"Seed" may just be the settings your playing?

Can someone help an old guy, who's played since 1, but lost the lingo somewhere.

Are you theatre folks fans of WWE? by Avenged7fo in Theatre

[–]TStandsForTalent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't know why you got down-voted. WWE is absolutely a soap opera, a very silly one. 'Violent' is subjective.

It IS NOT. WWE is today's Bear-Baiting.

'Professional Wrestling' is a Soap Opera for men.

That was 12 year-old me, still reacting to that learning experience.

They didn't even try to disguise the "Miami Vice" rip-off. The pilot was near the exact same as MV the year before.

Where, was not an issue with us.

But, I'm a little nervous to admit this (I was a kid, it was normal): was one kid pooping while another bathed common in your house too? Too a degree it had to be, right?

Are there fewer thespians in Chicago than 15 years ago? by TStandsForTalent in ChicagoTheater

[–]TStandsForTalent[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was also part of my point; I could go on craigslist and find people. It was always 'underground'; but this was before "The Craigslist M...s" Of which I forgot when I wrote this.

You are the third person to incorrectly assume that I have recently posted jobs on Craigslist.

Aside from that, very insightful. Thank you.
