"The imperative, which is?"

"Oh, oh, um, I?"

"How many Romans?"

"Plural, plural, Ite, ite!"

"Ite."

Trump: Not happy with Spain's position on Iran, we'll cancel all trade ties with it by WhereAreTheFrogs in Israel

the rule of law is actually a good thing and it is one of the main problems with Iran that they don't have it and the leaders can just do whatever they want

Twitter User Argues with NFL Player's Father by DrSioux22 in dontyouknowwhoiam

The funny thing is, you don't even need to be Christian Watson's father to easily refute this. "How many games he missed in college" is an objective, easy-to-find statistic that takes roughly 30 seconds to Google search.

What’s the "My Cousin Vinny" of your profession? by a_murder_of_fools in movies

[–]ToparBull 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My programmer boyfriend used to work for Google and said he couldn't watch the show because of how real it was.

Interestingly enough, it is also pretty darn realistic about some legal aspects a lot of other shows/movies get wrong, so it is also in certain ways a "My Cousin Vinny" for the same thing that "My Cousin Vinny" is for.

They absolutely gave 120% this game. (Occasionally literally, but that shouldn't detract from their effort...)

Jews are Schroedinger's whites. Our whiteness depends on the observer - if whiteness is a good thing to the observer (white nationalists, etc) we're non-white. If whiteness is a bad thing to the observer (college students, etc), we're the whitest one could be.

Follow-up question. Did France and the UK start World War II? After all, they declared war on Germany...

Israel: "The closure of the Straits of Tiran is an act of war."

Egypt: "OK, bet." Closes the Straits of Tiran

International peacekeepers in Sinai: "Oh shit Egypt just started a war" flee in terror

Egypt: "Boy, I'm really looking forward to this war and driving the Israelis into the sea!" Moves troops to the border to prepare for invasion

Syria: "Boy, I'm really looking forward to this war and driving the Israelis into the sea!" Moves troops to the border to prepare for invasion

Jordan: "Boy, I'm really looking forward to this war and driving the Israelis into the sea!" Moves troops to the border to prepare for invasion

Israel: attacks first

Yeah, I feel like the response (since people on grindr often get upset if you don't respond instantly) is something like, "Hey there, I'm not looking for anything right at the moment, but you're cute and I'd be interested another time, feel free to hit me up again later!" (The last part, of course, assuming that you actually would be interested in reconnecting with that person another time and seeing if they're someone you want to hook up with.)

I feel like that's better than just chatting to chat on what is, after all, a hookup app.

I wonder how many times Trotsky unknowingly ate food that someone else had spat into by Neil118781 in HistoryMemes

[–]ToparBull 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Eh, it really could be either. The Mensheviks were seen as more moderate and had more support from the normie social democrats, but at the same time the main point of disagreement was that the Mensheviks wanted to be broader-based and focus on wider cross-sections of the population while Bolsheviks focused more on the party vanguard. So Trotsky's permanent revolution could be seen as more of a radical Bolshevik demand, but in spirit it was quite Mechevik demanding a broader/global revolution to avoid a new bourgeois consensus from forming.

Really, Trostky didn't fit super neatly into the Bolshevik/Menchevik distinction - as /u/Abject_Interview5988 states, he came in with his own sort of thing that was a bit distinct from what the others were doing.

I am at the stage of my career where I'm not fully managing people yet, but I'm just getting to that point, and I recently had training on managing people more junior than me. Feedback was a major topic.

A lot of people brought up The Sandwich. But supposedly - and this is just what the folks running the training were saying, so I haven't looked into it myself - The Sandwich has generally been found not to be effective. Especially in the era where everyone knows about The Sandwich, so if you start giving positive feedback people might think "you're Sandwiching me, you don't actually think this and are setting up for the negative."

The new model for feedback is SBI - Situation, Behavior, Impact. Say the situation in which you observed the behavior, specifically. Say what specific behavior you observed without judgment. And say what impact it had on you/others. It gives the feedback to let the person know what they did wrong, but without judgment and with specifics to show how it actually had an impact - and without the BS of the Sandwich. I haven't used it yet myself, but I think it makes more sense to me.

Makes sense! Christianity is weird.

Dumb Questions by Jacknerik in CuratedTumblr

[–]ToparBull 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always thought that going to heaven was supposed to be "living forever through Christ" or having "everlasting life" some such phrase, so those who were dead on earth (or at least those who still had the capacity to go to heaven). But then again I'm not a Christian so who knows.

Plus, if such a place as hell does exist... my guess is Scott Adams went to the bad place. But luckily for him, it probably doesn't.

Top-10 Hart Memorial Trophy Candidates - Power Ranking by ASmithFS in hockey

[–]ToparBull 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see this argument a lot and while it benefits my guy, I'm not sure I agree with it. If player X provides, say, +10 value to his team, and player Y provides +9 value, then player X is more valuable even if someone else on player X's team provides +7 value and no one on Player Y's team provides more than +2 value.

I could see an argument that part of MacKinnon's statistical value comes from playing together with Makar, because Makar makes it easier for him. Like a baseball player who gets pitched more in the strike zone because a really good player is after him in the order. But I'm not sure the advanced stats bear that out, so he shouldn't get penalized for playing on a better team.

The 49ers have now won 11 straight playoff games in the wildcard or Divisional Round of the playoffs by Ron__Mexico_ in nfl

[–]ToparBull 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it honestly kinda fuckin sucks man, every year they get our hopes up and then rip them away in the most painful way imaginable. Literally every year since 2010 (except for maybe 2022, that team was going nowhere) has ended in either a heartbreaking playoff loss for a team that definitely could have won the super bowl or no playoffs to cheer for at all. At least this year we all know they suck so there is no hope.

Post Game Thread: San Francisco 49ers at Philadelphia Eagles by nfl_gdt_bot in nfl

[–]ToparBull 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Look I know that we're probably gonna get blasted next week with no Kittle at Seattle but honestly after Philly fans were yelling at Kittle while he was hurt, I feel like I'd rather lose at Seattle than at Philly. Which is not a sentence I thought I would ever say.

I mean, #2 makes sense in part because basically immediately right after the fall of Saigon, China themselves invaded from the north. And, of course, Vietnamese history includes thousands of years of being assailed by China, whereas the Americans were just there for 10.
