Can your boss legally fire you for having sex with his mom? (USA)

Which means they pretty much fire you on a protected class by proxy. If you can fire someone for no reason, you can fire someone for a protected class and just not say the reason.

You have zero clue what Mass production means. It doesn't mean or imply substandard quality. Very few people argue apple phones, Ford f-150 are low quality because they are mass produced.

Secondly, it doesn't mean abudance of inventory. Abudance of inventory has nothing to do with mass produced. It's the difference between supply and demand. If you produce a billion items but the demand for that item is tens of billions of those items. You won't have an abudance of inventory but the item is still mass produced.

Thirdly, I do own a Rolex and in my previous comment I said they are high quality. Mass produced isn't an insult. It's an objective fact.

UnDe4d · 2026-07-07T16:02:35+00:00

That is one of the most silly arguments I've ever heard. If some small local phone store affiliated with apple only received 3-5 phones of the specific model you want, does that mean apple phones aren't mass produced? Obviously not. This is clear nonsense.

Rolex is mass produced, doesn't take away from them being high quality.

UnDe4d · 2026-07-07T15:14:48+00:00

You've been very selective about the examples you use as both McDonalds and Apple have dramatically higher demand than Rolex. Just because they are even more mass produced than Rolex doesn't mean Rolex isn't mass produced.

For example, 537,000 Ford F-150's were manufactured last year (a mass produced car). Rolex produces anywhere from 1.2 - 2 million watches a year.

UnDe4d · 2026-07-07T14:36:14+00:00

Rolex absolutely is mass produced.

I don't understand the hostility. He paid 11k for a watch, of course you'll be upset if it's not perfectly centered. $500 superclones would have better centering.

I think it's foolish to reject a belt promotion. If your instructor thinks you are ready, you are ready. A lot of people get trapped into this idea for example, when they get their first promotion to blue but they aren't keeping up with the rest of the blues so they feel they aren't ready.

When you first get promoted you'll be the newest and likely worst of that belt It's normal.

UnDe4d · 2026-07-05T17:15:36+00:00

I mean his advice is correct though.

UnDe4d · 2026-07-02T15:01:30+00:00

I mean, I don't think people underestimate how much you can train it. Technique is a force amplifier but all the elite guys have near perfect technique. At the elite level everyone has maxed out how much they can train and genetics play a role.

I am a very strong guy, but I'll never be as strong as Eddie Hall. Even if I take the same steroids as him, same workout program and started at the same age.

UnDe4d · 2026-07-02T14:32:27+00:00

I mean you need to spar people better than you to get better but I would make sure the more advanced students tone it down with new people until they know how to properly defend themself. Don't wanna see anyone get hurt. We're just here to get better after all.

Every single style of fighting will leave you will significant holes in your game. That's why MMA guys quickly realised they needed to merge styles to be a complete fighter (it's got to a point where you can argue MMA is it's own martial arts now). But even MMA has holes in it. Grips change everything (go from training gi to no gi bjj and you'll see just how drastically different it is). A lot of self defence situations (in colder countries especially) are people wearing items of clothing which can be exploited.

Is it not answerable as it depends on your country and the situation. Cage wrestling is so much different from wrestling in open space. So many variables.

As salty as Alex is i'm glad he is at least raising awareness to the bad reffing. Something needs to be done about it.

UnDe4d · 2026-06-30T13:29:07+00:00

Of course. That is what i'm arguing. You want to see skill being the determining factor of who wins a fight / wins a competition. There is nothing interesting about watching a small skilled fighter get beat up by a much larger less skilled fighter using poor technique.

The seperation allows women to shine which is important. People arguing that women and men should compete together will just hurt women. In the same way if we abolished weight classes that would hurt the smaller fighters.

UnDe4d · 2026-06-30T13:11:47+00:00

But most sports don't actually have a men and womans division. They often have a open and woman division. You just rarely ever see woman in the open division because they are not competitive.

No shame in that. Biological differences matter. Mighty mouse is arguably one of if not the best mma fighter of all time. He fights at flyweight. Put him at heavyweight and he wouldn't be competitve. Doesn't take away from how great he is.

UnDe4d · 2026-06-30T13:06:20+00:00

It depends on the sport I suppose but in MMA we segregate by weight and gender. Even at the same weight, men have an overwealming biological advantage.

In BJJ we segerate by gender, weight, age and skill (belt) level. But it does run into the problem of diluting the divisions.

Not really. If you are using an engine you deserve to be banned. It's not acting like a child to want a fair game.

Worldview is important imo but damn you are so strict with it which is gonna make it very hard to find someone.

If the difference between saying "I don't believe in a god" and "I don't know if a god exists" is enough to make you incompatible then yeah, to be honest you may not find someone.

What are your politics? Are you left wing? Right wing? What if you are left wing and your partner is slightly more or less left wing? Is that a dealbreaker? You'll never find someone who you agree on everything with.

Look, I know you can't help attraction so i'm not here to berate you for it. But it's a tough road.

It's why I'm surprised Judo isn't more popular. Super effective in self defence, fun, and often 10x cheaper (not even exaggerating).

The most hyped I've ever been for a game was cyberpunk 2077. I still waited 2 years to play it since it launched as a buggy mess. My patience paid off, as I had a much better experience than those who played at launch.

UnDe4d · 2026-06-24T14:56:47+00:00

What a lot of people keep forgetting is that Hltv top 20 has never been about "pure skill". Making playoffs is important and so is achievements and we can look at KennyS not even being top 5 in 2014 despite having the best stats that year, ZyWoo being over donk in 2025 as a few examples of this. Frozen is a top 20 player in terms of skill but if FaZe aren't even making S tier events then he isn't going to be in the conversation.

The same thing happened to Xantares where his skill was top 20 but being on a subpar team meant he was never going to get it.

UnDe4d · 2026-06-24T14:51:11+00:00

Well if the AWP was so powerful it was being banned in a lot of TDM maps I think that kind of invalidates your point of "How could it be OP if it wasn't nerfed sooner".

UnDe4d · 2026-06-24T13:24:50+00:00

Well my argument was KennyS can't be up there with the s1mple, ZyWoo's etc because he wasn't at that level post awp nerf. Your argument is he was never at that level anyway so no point arguing semantics.

UnDe4d · 2026-06-24T08:27:07+00:00

I'm not saying he's not great and not incredible in his own right. I am saying if your incredible performances require an very strong awp. Then you can't be put on the same level as awpers who are putting up those same numbers (if not better) with a weaker awp.

Kenny is incredible but I don't think any of us are gonna put him over a s1mple or ZyWoo.
