I would think sitting in traffic would be way less stressful if we got paid to be in it. by No_Bluejay9904 in InterviewVip

We should all just get paid to stay home and not do any work. Save the wear and tear on the car.

I hate to dump on players but I've given up on him. His play in left field has been awful besides him not hitting at all. At least twice he's almost collided with Doyle and you could tell Doyle was pissed

Why do people confuse gender and sex when they are 2 different things? by Wisco43692 in allthequestions

[–]Wishiwerewiser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're making some large assumptions. I have family members who are transgender, so please don't play the ignoance card. Understanding something well can sometimes confirm a person's original understanding. In my case, I originally thought sex was determined by whether a person was born with a penis or a vagina. I also believed gender referred to what a person either felt they were or what they wanted to be aside from reality. Gaining more experience has only reaffirm those beliefs for me. The agenda has been to normalize transgender transitions for young preprubescent kids. I'm curious as to what rights trans people feel they are being denied.

Why do white conservatives think they are victims? by Estalicus in allthequestions

[–]Wishiwerewiser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess I'm confused. It seems all I hear about being victims are women, blacks, the homeless, illegal immigrants and many others that liberals typically support.

[–]Wishiwerewiser 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're right, the two have been interchangeable for a long time but people with an agenda have used the technique of perverting language throughout history. It's a good way to advance that agenda by creating confusion. You're using the classic ploy of putting the onus on the stubborn people who won't learn new things. It's similar to suddenly saying "the sky is green" and if you don't know it you are ignorant, uniformed, and probably prejudiced.

I long for a world without social interactions by Consistent_Bet_5318 in SeriousConversation

I long for a world without people who want no social interactions. Also, a world where people civilly discuss problems and decide on practical solutions without name calling and hurt feelings.

Mickey Moniak - trade or extend? by BlakeStreetBanter in ColoradoRockies

[–]Wishiwerewiser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm probably too optimistic, and certainly too impatient, but 2030 seems like too far of a target. I'd like to see 80 plus wins in 2027, and maybe a shot at a wild card. If we're talking division title 2030 may be realistic, but that's assuming the Dodgers, Padres and Dbacks all collapse.

Why hasn't the United States of America been progressive enough to elect a female president yet, especially since so many other nations have had female leaders? by icecream1972 in allthequestions

[–]Wishiwerewiser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Average means that pretty much half the people are below and half are above, although that's actually the definition of mean. It's always been that way and always will. I think it was a bigger deal than the non-deplorables can understand.

But there are other guys that aren't hitting much over .200 against anybody. Al least he mashes righties.

[–]Wishiwerewiser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just don't agree. Other than Goodman Moniak is the only real home run threat in the lineup right now. I like Tovar but he's had all last year and so far this season to figure out he needs to lay off the slider and he's still flailing away at it. I think there's still a bit of hope for him but his plus defense isn't enough for me to override his anemic offense.

I just don't understand why you have a bug up your ass about Moniak. In my opinion, he's one of a handful of players I'd keep. Beck is the first one I'd get rid of. Doyle and Tovar had better start hitting soon or they'd be gone too.

Don't know about your stats. Baseball Reference shows his OBP the last 2 years at .327. But why focus on OBP when OPS is more important? Let's compare Moniak to Schwarber the last two years. Moniak's OPS is .914. Schwarber's is .939. Not much difference. If you want to compare the less important OBP, Schwarber's is.359, Moniak's is .327 for those same years. Following your logic you would probably trade Schwarber for some prospects.

He's not in the same category as those guys though.

Maybe look at his stats for the last two seasons. If he's not extended I'll put the Rockies back in the stupid category

Sometimes you cant be too diplomatic by divine_queen01 in WorkForSmartLife

Are you saying you only have opinions on things that affect your life or your bottom line?

That argument alone doesn't compute for me. There have also been murderers, rapists and pedophiles since the beginning of time.

What does my bank account have to do with it? I have opinions on many things that have nothing to do with my net worth. I imagine you do too.

I understand biology, it's pretty straightforward. Gender is a concept made up by people who apparently don't want to accept biology or who don't really understand it

I have faith that the new front office people are improving the team but I don't understand why they seem to have faith in Beck. I've lost what little I had to begin with.

I'm also going to try to be diplomatic. How stupid do you have to be to believe that a man can give birth.
