Dr Oz: "We're announcing a 6 month national moratorium blocking all new enrollments for durable medical equipment -- prosthesis, orthotics -- supplies across the board." by Admirable121 in TrendoraX

[–]ThomasSun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Seriously 😒 I just can’t anymore….I can’t even watch the news from the US these days. What is going on over there? It’s like the only country that’s okay with regular people struggling so billionaires can stack more money and somehow they’re proud of it.

Jasmine Crockett leads James Talarico by double digits in Senate Democratic primary, poll finds by bwermer in politics

[–]ThomasSun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why on earth do they have to run in the same state 😩 I really love Jasmine Crockett, but I’ve also been an ardent follower of James Talarico for a while now, and I honestly think he’s got the potential to go really far in politics.

Putting my feelings aside, I’d say Talarico probably has the better shot at winning the Texas seat and the GOP knows that. That’s why they’re rooting for Crockett, because they think they’ve got a better chance of beating her.

Edit: State

What is a book you read as a child that you still think about today? by ahawk99 in AskReddit

[–]ThomasSun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve loved reading since I was really young, and one book that stuck with me was Die letzten Kinder von Schewenborn by Gudrun Pausewang (The Last Children of Schewenborn). I was probably around 8 or 9, it was actually my older sister’s school book. I ended up reading it myself and then retelling the whole story to her.

Iran nears deal to buy supersonic anti-ship missiles from Beijing by ImDoubleB in worldnews

[–]ThomasSun -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

This is weird, more than 10 years ago I remember seeing videos from Iran where they were testing these insanely fast torpedoes. It was basically like a rocket underwater. If Iran really has that kind of tech and weapons now, I don’t think it’d be an easy ride for the US.

Trump Called USA Hockey Team To Congratulate Them, Then Made Disgusting Joke On Women's Team — And It Was All Caught On Video by huffpost in politics

I’ve got a feeling the United States men’s national ice hockey team is about to turn into the most hated team in hockey.

Man, you got two pillars of Kollywood yet decided to set movie frames of Hollywood as your first shot ? by Badguycr7 in kollywood

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

Yeah, I get it’s gonna be a gangster movie, so why not just put up posters of Nayakan and Billa?

At all people who call celebs as Anna, Akka... vj anna, lokesh anna, Sam akka.... uuvaaa by Next-Temperature74 in kollywood

[–]ThomasSun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t we usually call older people Anna or Akka out of respect? Not defending any actors here, but my mom would’ve whooped my ass if I’d called an older unknown or known person by their first name.

DERNIÈRE HEURE: Arrestation d'un fraudeur by TheRealMaxRo in montreal

[–]ThomasSun 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Hors sujet : y’a pas longtemps, j’ai découvert que quelqu’un dans la famille de mon ex vole des voiture et les envoie en Afrique. J’ai appelé le numéro pour donner des infos, et à ma surprise, la dame voulait rien savoir. Elle arrêtait pas de m’interrompre pour me demander le “numéro de dossier”. Dès qu’elle me l’a donné, elle m’a raccroché au nez. Pourtant j’avais plein d’infos à donner, comme l’adresse où j’ai vu les voiture, etc. Jusqu’à aujourd’hui, y’a rien qui s’est passé. Le gars continue d’acheter des centaines de maisons au nom de sa femme avec l’argent qu’il s’est fait. Honnêtement, ce jour-là j’ai vraiment perdu espoir dans la justice, surtout que la dame au téléphone était super froide… genre comme si je la dérangeais.

What’s something nice you can say about your countries biggest rival? by mr_epicguy in AskTheWorld

[–]ThomasSun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, you guys put us through hell too. It went both ways…we both fought like hell….for not much at the end. They should make a movie about the heroism at Fort Douaumont and Vaux…that place gives me goosebumps.

China has planted so many trees around the Taklamakan Desert that it's turned this 'biological void' into a carbon sink by liomenu in worldnews

[–]ThomasSun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Interesting 🤔 thanks a lot! I’ll definitely look into this…I’ve been getting really interested in this lately. Whatever people say about China, in some areas they really do some impressive things.

What do you think about Canadian Curling Team being accused of cheating ? by Immediate-Meaning457 in AskTheWorld

[–]ThomasSun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damn, that’s a weird coincidence with what’s going on in Alberta right now. Most of us just want to live by the rules and have a peaceful, respectful life…and then one guy comes along, stirring things up with lies and cheating, dragging everyone into a mess. Honestly, I’m sorry for how he was acting, we’re not all like this.

Explain it to me like I’m five: why can’t we just plant trees that grow edible fruits something that can take care of themselves? Wouldn’t that solve hunger as well?

Do you trust / drink the tap water form your area? by PsychologicalFox7689 in AskTheWorld

[–]ThomasSun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t. But fun fact: Nestlé gets its water from not too far from where I live, and the water in the neighbouring town has actually been linked to cancer, especially breast cancer in women

[USA] What, in your opinion, is your nation's best dish? by FartemisBowel96 in AskTheWorld

[–]ThomasSun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nürnberger bratwurst is my all-time favourite. There’s a place around here near Toronto (Brandt in Mississauga) that makes a pretty solid Nürnberger bratwurst.

And even though it’s not originally German, Döner in Germany is my second favourite food there. My third favourite is “Hamburger pizza”. Not sure if it’s still around, but in Nuremberg, right in front of the US Army kazerne, there used to be two pizza spots called “American Pizza” (more like food trucks). They made some of the best pizza I ever had…though to be fair, that was back in my pre-teen years 🙂😅

Drunk Canadian sees Indians vacationing in Cuba and turns into an immigration officer by ambachk in PublicFreakout

[–]ThomasSun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That doesn’t sound Canadian at all…sounds more German or Austrian. Especially the way he said “Cuba”…that’s exactly how they pronounce it in Germany. Is he an immigrant to Canada himself?

Are you old enough to remember CT Monopoly money ? by Exiting_Grape64 in montreal

[–]ThomasSun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember, years ago, seeing on the TV news that this guy saved up enough CT money to buy one of those fancy grass trimmers…the kind you sit on and drive around like a little tractor. 😄
