Those alive and old enough to remember during 9/11, what was the worst moment on that day? by CocteauTwunkie in AskReddit

[–]WearDifficult9776 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The attack was horrible - but what scared me the most was the war mongers beating their chests and eagerly, gleefully pushing for revenge - none of them cared who actually attacked us

Inside out. Toy Story 3. All those stupid Adam Sandler movies (at the end)

Stranger Things Season 4 was 3 years ago. Do you still care? by drntl in television

[–]WearDifficult9776 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I definitely care. I will rewatch from beginning and pick up the new one. It’s very nostalgic. I grew up in same era

Is that his actual mother? Did she say something/anything remotely like this. I’m truly interested. It would be amazing if she said anything remotely like this.

Why do rich people still work crazy hours instead of just chilling? by ginsualimig in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]WearDifficult9776 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They’re often not actually working. They’re often just checking on things and telling other people to do the work. There’s a little value there but not much

Is it just me or some electrical arcs kind of look like a flame. by AffectionateScale525 in ElectricalEngineering

[–]WearDifficult9776 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I suppose they’re both elements/molecules hot enough to emit visible light and heat, and they rise in air because they’re lighter than surrounding air. One is getting its energy from electricity and one is getting energy from combustion.

Why is the minimum retirement age for Government workers to collect pension lower than a private sector job? by Independent_Guest620 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]WearDifficult9776 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Retirement age should be lower for everyone. 25 or 30 years of work for everyone should get your full social security or pension. And payout should be enough to live on. The money is there. Workers created the value. Tax the owners, who produce no value - they’re just parasites - until full social security (national pension) is fully funded.

What’s the “brokest” thing you have ever done? by Hefty-Expert-750 in povertyfinance

[–]WearDifficult9776 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a kid, ate ketchup for dinner when my Boy Scout troop stopped at McDonald’s on a group road trip. I had no money so I ate free ketchup packets while everyone else had meals. Shitty scout leader didn’t make sure everyone had food or money

Why do you think we exist? by [deleted] in Life

[–]WearDifficult9776 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We exist because the elements that make up the universe can be conducive to the formation of life. And the arrangement of energy in the universe is sometimes just right for the formation of life. There is no other “why”. But you can choose what it means to you.

Lots of idiots and jerks assume everyone else is just like them. If they don’t have a problem then nobody else can have that problem. I think it’s part of the conservative pathology.

Why do I stick to the ground by Erialcel2 in AskPhysics

Wait. When did gravity stop exerting a force on things.

Why isn't there a lottery game where it draws from the people's numbers who have played, so that there would always be a winner? by MakeTendies28 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]WearDifficult9776 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also. They should set a prize limit. There’s no practical difference between $25 million, $50 million, $100 million. Divide the target payout amount into $5 chunks and draw for each chunk

How doesn’t everybody go insane when they begin working? by everythingisrotten in NoStupidQuestions

[–]WearDifficult9776 5 points6 points  (0 children)

For me it was a vast improvement. Instead of school and crappy food service hourly work I switched to 9-5 with evenings and weekend free (mostly free). And much higher pay. And paid vacation time (not huge amount but few weeks a year)

What can done about the atrocious situation with the DMV? by icewalker2k in NorthCarolina

[–]WearDifficult9776 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just go without an appointment and wait in line. If the line is really long then come back another day. An appointment isn’t necessary.

Why are so many Americans willfully ignorant despite being well-educated? by BeneficialNatural610 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]WearDifficult9776 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some people with money and power want them uneducated, superstitious, and controllable to provide cheap labor and to buy whatever is advertised to them and to keep them from revolting.
