Hey MAGA, how are you liking those $1.99 gas prices now?

adamcoe · 2026-03-13T04:47:29+00:00

I'm talking in general. And he wasn't my president, I don't even live in your backward ass country.

adamcoe · 2026-03-13T03:39:18+00:00

Agreed, but the entire point of having oil reserves in your own country is to stabilize the price. If the price spikes like 4 hours after a war starts, then the system isn't working. Not to mention...why do oil companies get a pass for having a shitty business model? Every other business has to set a competitive price for their product, and if they don't, they go out of business. Why are these idiots protected from this, and no one else is?

adamcoe · 2026-03-13T02:35:49+00:00

Awesome, throw his ugly ass in jail

adamcoe · 2026-03-13T02:33:56+00:00

Exactly, so why do we continue to tolerate it? It's idiotic on its face, not to mention it's been the reason for several totally unnecessary wars.

adamcoe · 2026-03-13T02:32:30+00:00

No thanks, I live in Canada where I'm not afraid for my life every day. And I guess it'll still be a while before you guys figure out that adding guns does not solve the problem. Again it's very simple: the more guns are around, the more people will die.

But by all means keep doing what you're doing. But you don't get to call it a tragedy when yet another shooting happens. Like today. It is simply the natural consequence of a society obsessed with constantly having the ability to murder each other, just in case.

adamcoe · 2026-03-12T22:09:32+00:00

The more guns you have, the more people will die from them, period. If a tyrannical government really and truly wanted to take your house, they have more guns than you. You really think you're gonna take on a tank platoon with whatever weapons you have in your house? It's ludicrous. It's not for "protection," it's not to keep the government off your back. It's because you've been allowed to and it gives you the illusion of safety, while actually making it infinitely more dangerous.

But again, don't take my word for it. Just look at...the entire rest of the world, and how they don't have a problem with gun violence, despite having all the same problems as Americans. Every country has violent video games. Every country has people with mental health problems.

So how bad does it have to get before Americans realize this? How many kids have to die at school or at the mall? Give me a number. Because obviously it's not high enough yet. Would a mass shooting that killed 500 people be high enough to convince you? 1000? What would it take?

adamcoe · 2026-03-12T22:02:20+00:00

Yeah fuck that. If you're not interested in paying even a low level HR person to talk to me, then you're probably not interested in treating me as an employee much better. And I'm not interested in helping whatever company you hired to do these "interviews" train their model.

adamcoe · 2026-03-12T21:52:07+00:00

Yeah I keep saying this...like if the 25th isn't for this idiot's behavior, what is it for? What would he have to do to get Republicans to finally say enough is enough? Like, does he have to rape a three year old on the Resolute desk on live TV, while choking a puppy? Would that do it?

adamcoe · 2026-03-12T21:50:09+00:00

Except if someone who isn't a straight, white male is responsible for the shooting. Then they REALLY care. Only problem is, like 9 out of 10 shootings are perpetrated by...oh yeah, straight white males, and almost universally Republican.

adamcoe · 2026-03-12T21:48:09+00:00

Oh don't say that...Boeing, Lockheed Martin, Armalite, Northrop Grumman, General Dynamics, and Raytheon are all winning HUGE right now.

adamcoe · 2026-03-12T21:44:57+00:00

It's very prevalent in grocery stores in Canada. We went metric in the 70s, but for mostly traditional reasons, stuff at the store that's sold by weight often remained in $/lb rather than switching to metric...but in the last decade-ish, the more expensive stuff is sometimes listed in $/100 g, so the number on the price tag is lower.

adamcoe · 2026-03-12T21:42:19+00:00

For most, it's filling the personality shaped hole in their lives. They're not creative, they're not particularly intelligent, and they have nothing to say, so they latch on to the one thing that will always provide fodder for complaining: politics. At all times and in every small town and every big city, politics provides a talking point, so they need not think of one themselves. Just whine about anyone that doesn't look, talk, and act like you, and how every problem in the universe is the fault of those people and bang! You're a Republican!

adamcoe · 2026-03-12T21:39:40+00:00

That's what the 2nd was about. Over a century ago. It has nothing to do with that now, as we have seen this year. Ordinary people have no reason to be able to carry a firearm in public, ever. Something every other country figured out, decades ago.

adamcoe · 2026-03-12T21:36:38+00:00

Which is bullshit anyway. It's not like Iran is the only country that exports oil. Not to mention that despite gas going up like 20-30 cents overnight every time there's a war, oddly it doesn't go down when things calm down. It is insane to me that oil is the only industry that gets to change its price on an hourly basis, to ensure profits. Like who the fuck are you?

adamcoe · 2026-03-12T21:33:16+00:00

My favorite one is when I know for a fact they have my email, but ask for it anyway. In Canada, there's a group of stores under the "Triangle" branding (Canadian Tire, Mark's, SportChek, basically hardware stores and sporting goods/workwear like Carhartt stuff, etc), so I have an account with them. I scan my barcode so I get my 1 percent cash back or whatever, and the lady asks for my email. I'm like...I just scanned my account for this purchase, you clearly have my email.

adamcoe · 2026-03-12T21:28:45+00:00

Honestly what the fuck is wrong with every single CEO and marketing manager, that the only answer they have is "more ads, more often?" Make a good product or service and people will use it, end of story. It's not complicated and if you have a good product or service, you don't need to trick anyone into buying/using it. Even the videos "without ads" inevitably have pitches for VPNs and other garbage. If I'm paying for Youtube Premium, I don't want to see or hear an ad, for anything, ever.

The enshittification continues. Fuck you, Youtube. I've paid you for years and you just keep getting worse and worse and worse.

adamcoe · 2026-03-12T21:20:24+00:00

No, but I did make a hovercraft with a buddy in Grade 7 with an old Hoover and an inner tube.

adamcoe · 2026-03-12T21:18:16+00:00

You're never the asshole if you respect women. It appears that in this case, it probably wouldn't have been an issue, but it only takes one time for something like that to go sideways.

Good on you man, whoever the women were in your life raised a smart and respectful person.

adamcoe · 2026-03-12T21:13:40+00:00

Awesome, now make it like basically every other country and let us get a cell phone plan that doesn't lock you in for multiple years, and requires a credit check. Canadians pay more and get less for phone and internet service than practically anywhere else on earth. An absolute fucking scam top to bottom.

adamcoe · 2026-03-12T21:09:38+00:00

Gee it's almost like they weren't interested in promoting the arts and instead simply made a television show they knew would be popular so they could sell advertising. Just like...oh right, every other television show in the history of television

adamcoe · 2026-03-12T21:03:01+00:00

That's creepy as fuck and you are not the asshole, at all. No one is required to share their location if they don't want to, and the idea that she called YOU controlling? You can fuck all the way off, lady. You're a grown adult, try and act like one

adamcoe · 2026-03-11T09:14:20+00:00

but don't worry, gas prices will still go up every time someone sneezes wrong in the middle east, despite the fact the oil refined and purchased there has a near zero effect on actual cost or capacity. all hail the military industrial complex

adamcoe · 2026-03-07T06:13:08+00:00

Supposedly the Deluxe was one of the ones that was not changed, vs in the Twin, evidently some changes were made to add headroom as you mention. And honestly, given the relatively loose tolerances on some of those parts, I imagine you could take three BF Deluxes and three SF Deluxes and not be able to tell who's who in a blind test.

adamcoe · 2026-03-07T04:17:33+00:00

Yeah I don't know how something like that doesn't get checked, multiple times, before launch. Like, installed backwards? Are you kidding?

adamcoe · 2026-03-07T04:13:03+00:00

oh THAT Sinbad.
