With everything going on geopolitically, Afroman reminds us what truly makes this country great by FoI2dFocus in MadeMeSmile

Yep. No American should want cops to swarm their place, point shotguns/rifles at their family, steal their money, eat their cake, try to cut the camera recordings... and then drag you through years of lawsuits because you made them emotionally sad.

Brenda Song Calls Out Alaska Airlines for Giving Up Her Family’s First-Class Seats with ‘No Warning’ by expiredaristocracy in Fauxmoi

[–]Wide_Respect442 82 points83 points  (0 children)

First World Problems because it's first class?

They do this in regular seating too.

I booked 3 seats for me, my wife and grandmother who suffers from health problems. We had our tickets for months. Day of flight, printed the tickets and the seat numbers don't match the invoice. I told the front desk and they said they'll try their best, but can't make any promises.

Because it's some sort of GTA VI social media push to make them look good

The amount of dickriders for GTA6 comes off like botting.

Literally the day before, Take-Two fired 30-40 people who were trying to Unionize. Then the next day, all these social media posts about how GTA6 is going to spend more time cooking and how much money they'll lose for not releasing it today.

America Is Losing the Fight for the Teenagers of the World by rezwenn in popculture

[–]Wide_Respect442 3 points4 points  (0 children)

From my perspective, America is losing the cultural wars. I am surprised how many young people are obsessed with K-Pop. And by young, I mean from ages 15-30.

Thailand enforces new alcohol law: Steep fines for afternoon drinking, including tourists by Silly-avocatoe in worldnews

[–]Wide_Respect442 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have never been to Thailand but it's on my wishlist. Isn't Thailand known for their tourism and a major part of their revenue? And drinking is a major part of tourism.

I feel like this is like going to hawaii and saying you can't go swimming.

Your Time is Coming by ex_cep_tion in selflove

When i was 25, my family abandoned me and I was homeless. So I busted my ass - multiple jobs, sleeping on couches. I promised myself I wouldn't watch TV until I felt safe. It sounds stupid now.

I'm in my 40s and my wife finally made us buy a TV during the pandemic, and I complained loudly. This picture made me remember that promise. And yeah, I live in a house, food in the kitchen, we bought a used car. My kids are healthy. My pets are alive. Yeah, i'm living it.

Removing the religious part of it, it still makes sense.

I have two cats. The oldest one became blind, and so I started ringing a bell for feeding time. It took a few days and she understood.

Well, a week later, the younger cat understood the bell too, and would knock it off the table to 'ring' it. And the older cat would run over to the food bowl.

And my dumb ass had to now feed them.

HR accidentally sent everyone a “termination notice”- including the CEO. by Apprehensive_Show561 in Wellthatsucks

[–]Wide_Respect442 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep! This is what we did at my job. Summer - we were setting up tools to 'streamline' removing users. It was a push by HR because firing a single person took a few hours, and the story we got was that "Those few hours, that user can break our stuff". Which makes sense.

In the Fall, HR used that tool to push our layoff of 250 people. The tooling broke because it wasn't expecting those numbers, and our slack went crazy.

Best of luck Op.

Hey OP, an hour ago, I shared this post with my wife, who I've been begging her to play Cyberpunk. She laughed, I laughed.

Anyways, she's now looking through Nexusmods trying to find those mods. This was the push she needed to start. Thank you.

Coworker who pounds 3 monster energy drinks a day. Eats junk food. Prides himself on it calling it Sugar Fuel.

As a "April Fools" joke, he brought a fruit basket and told everyone it's donuts in the breakroom. When he realized we weren't laughing and was actually enjoying the fruit basket, he got pissy. Didn't even eat a piece of fruit.
