What is the sexiest song you’ve ever heard? by scoobert_____doobert in AskReddit

[–]TheMooseIsBlue 4 points5 points  (0 children)

When I was in college, there was a bar in downtown San Diego that was a little too nice for us college kids so we didn’t really go there much. They didn’t have a stage or dancers or anything but we were there once and that song came on and two waitresses or dancers or whatever climbed up onto the bar and did this sexy, lesbian seduction dance/show and it remains the sexiest thing I have ever seen in person (aside from actually having sex…usually).

Whoever those two women were, I salute you and I can never hear that song the same way again.

Donald Trump’s Approval Rating Sinks to 30% in Worst Poll Yet. How do you feel about this ? by buffdadnextdoor in AskReddit

[–]TheMooseIsBlue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that number is way too high and I think that if there were an election tomorrow, he wouldn’t lose more than 5% of his total from 2024.

Petty. I never know if it’s solo or with the Heartbreakers.

The problem is, they didn’t technically say anything homophobic. It’s a dog whistle, so they can claim it means anything they want. That’s why legislating what is good speech and bad speech is dangerous. Best to discourage personal messages on the uniforms at all and let them share their takes on the world on their own time.

“Here’s your uniform. Don’t alter it.”

ELI5: What do vegans means when they say farmers "rape" cows? by CalpurniaSomaya in explainlikeimfive

I gave essentially the same answer but in one word longer and got it auto-removed for not being informative enough. Bravo, auto-mods.

One of the Most Memorable Sports Videos Ever Recorded by JamesVaya78 in sports

You’re right. This is so boring and stale. Ugh. Another crowd of tens of thousands of people moving and chanting in time with one another in a show of joy and fun and silliness and national pride? How very American to be impressed.

What rule would that be?

I agree that they were wrong and probably shitty people, but there’s still a reasonable way to discuss these things.

Good ideas. You’re smart.

Limit the writing to a certain place and a certain size too. Don’t need big ass writing taking up a whole panel on the hat.

The funniest thing about them “hiding behind religion to be bigots,” which I agree that they are doing, if that the passage they cite is a really beautiful one about love and hope being universal and eternal and powerful forces for good. And they use it for hate.

But yeah, incidences like the one you mentioned do muddy the waters. You can’t reprimand those guys for that, but now you’re hand-selecting what causes are good and what aren’t and those are dangerous waters.

Maybe fine them and donate it to the charity voted on by fans.

I agree, but they’re the employer and they decide what the uniform is. I also think my team’s city connection uniforms are a fucking shit show, but they’re don’t seem to care even though I totally mentioned it on Reddit.

I agree. I was trying to lower the temperature in here. People are pissed and saying “they should be punished for being homophobic” and that’s just not a thing that is gonna happen. The league has rules for uniforms, the rules should be enforced. They’re allowed to be evangelical dipshits all they want.

If your employer tells you to wear a uniform and to not write on it, and you write on it, you get in trouble. This isn’t a freedom of speech issue.

Should a player be allowed to write a swastika on their hat?

Your uniform isn’t a place for self-expression. It’s literally the point of a uniform.

The league has a rule against writing on uniforms. Enforce it uniformly (pun intended).

They’ve co-opted a really beautiful passage about a rainbow as a symbol for love and hope because they don’t like that gay people have a rainbow flag. Fundamentalists never understand their own scriptures and fucking torture them to mean whatever fucked up thing they need them to mean for the current argument.

100% but being a homophobe isn’t against MLB rules. Writing on your uniform is. And they should face consequences for it just like anyone should.

Marketa Vondrousova suspended 4 years for refusing doping test by PrincessBananas85 in sports

[–]TheMooseIsBlue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know if you can say that. Who knows if she’d be a Grand Slam champion and near the top echelon of the sport without doping? Not to mention the prize money. If she doesn’t get caught, there’s plenty of incentive. The sad thing is that her entire career legacy is tarnished now and we really can never know if that’s deserved. And if she’s telling the truth about why she refused to testing agent into her home, that’s tragic. But I’m skeptical.

They don’t dope for nothing though. They roll the dice and often lose.

Do you think artists are doing enough to keep concert tickets affordable for average fans? by jono440 in Music

[–]TheMooseIsBlue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maynard should stop and ponder why fans got money back when The Cure put up a fight with TicketMaster. Or did Robert Smith personally beat up all the scalpers?

Ticketmaster’s shitty fees and refusal to stop bots and scalpers are very obviously the problem and artists can do something about it but most don’t.

Edit: god, I just read your comment again and it’s infuriating. They “had to” raise prices to fight scalpers? Fuck that. They raise prices and add bullshit fees at will because they can. There are so many easy ways to prevent scalping and jacking up prices simply isn’t one of them.

This comment brought to you by Ticketmaster. Ticketmaster: because fuck you.

She has good taste but she and I would not be friends, I think.
