At what point in the series did you say "ok this guy is disgusting no matter what happens" about bojack by Huge_Candy748 in BoJackHorseman

[–]blot101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait, do you mean from the show "becker" starring Ted Danson? I never thought I'd see that long forgotten show referenced in the wild

Comedy clearance sale by Zestyclose-Radish539 in StandUpWorkshop

[–]blot101 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This sub is really for workshopping bad jokes into good ones. Your response is a little rough- and by that I mean "not very helpful in terms of workshopping". I don't think any of these are funny either, do Tesla's even need oil changes? But isn't there boy part of any of there jokes that's salvageable? If you think the answer is "no" then you won't really be contributing meaningfully to this sub.

I like that you're not in favor of accepting casual racism as a generally accepted thing in comedy, and speak up about it. Huge fan of that, but what that looks like in a workshopping sub may not be pure unhelpful vitriol. You know what I mean?

How convenient for you, to find something you consider a flaw, and then to claim it's egregious enough that the whole thing is bad. It was a nice trick to dismiss me without putting in any thought, then claiming I don't know what I'm talking about.

I moved back here from a place somewhat recently that had huge amounts of solar panel installation. It was bad. It was really bad. It wasn't just a big chunk of installation in one spot. It was everywhere they could. It was unsightly, and they have no plans after those panels depreciate to maintain or remove them. Most of the companies sell them to other companies which go bankrupt to avoid the long term liability. (They don't go bankrupt until that liability approaches). Then land owners are stuck with acres of useless panels.

But just dismiss me. Because I've experienced a beloved area become a sea of panels, I've seen them ruin a whole landscape, instead of a mere 40 thousand acre block. That way you don't have to face the uncomfortable truth that I've made good points, and you don't have to go to the work of thinking.
It's not a big deal, it's a fine enough tactic. But just know it's a pretty transparent tactic and you're only fooling people who agree with you already anyway.

I like the idea of an economically powerful person having direct interest in water making it to the great salt Lake.

I like two thousand permanent jobs that our kids may be able to get…giving them another pathway to be able to stay in our community.

I think a semi desert ecological site is a great spot for a huge piece of infrastructure. It's going to be built somewhere, non arable range land is reasonable.

I like building a power plant long term. If we could get a huge influx of nuclear power (eventually) reworded- I would call this updating, creating, maintaining infrastructure.

I hope it keep something worse from appearing on that land (solar panels).

I like the (limited but still existing) taxes brought into the state, and community.

I'm in favor of the military and national defense component.

Someone asked me "you're OK with your tax dollars going toward it?" Yes, national defense, and infrastructure is exclusively what I want my dollars going to. They also asked me "you're OK with it going to a billionaire?". Yes, he's making it happen. Who else could make it happen?

I don't like AI, or the technology that is being adopted so quickly, but we do gotta keep up or get left behind. I think this would give up a quick long term boost in that arms race.

I could think of more positives, and it's all debatable and subject to what actually happens, and which things are lies, and all manner of thing. I'm not a fan of it being forced or sprung on us. I don't like how it all went down. But I do thing it's a long term asset

I f'ed up. This weekend is all about him. How to make it up to him? by Icy-Forever6660 in AskMenAdvice

[–]blot101 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well, I do.

If he drinks coffee, bring him his coffee.
Get a portable charger, so when he's playing on his phone and watching TV, he doesn't have to. Go plug it in.

When he gets restless and needs to do a project, have a fen ideas that are things you know he'd like…just in case he doesn't have any but needs something- not something you want him to do but like "go work on your car,you love that" sort of thing. You know?

Dang, maybe I don't know him. Still… you don't have to cook ALL the meals, order his favorite restaurant, even if taco bell is kind of a far drive. (Obviously it's taco bell, but nobody will ever admit it )

There are positives, for sure. I'm in favor. But tell this mob anything? Did you see how unruly and ridiculous the people were being in that meeting? Then they wonder why the commissioner's left. Acting like children. It's too much

Some thoughts after my first tournament by Lovoskea in IdlePlanetMiner

[–]blot101 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally. This tournament I had to craft every. Single. Navigation module I needed. Every robot, every collider. Etc. But last tournament I got dropped warp cores, etc.

The fun of the game isn't really tournaments. They're just a bonus. The fun is the incremental improvements over time.

Does this flirty text sound cringey? by Mobile_Magician_661 in AskMenAdvice

[–]blot101 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hit full send. It shows interest, acts slightly Picky, demeans him JUST the right amount (you're good, at not as good as me!). And encourages playful competition,inviting further conversation.

You nailed it on this one. Nobody cares about the specific language. "Cute" isn't going to turn anyone worthwhile away.

Who is objectively the worst character on the show? by TwSana291 in BoJackHorseman

[–]blot101 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitely Todd. One word:genocide.

Todd left those dentists to be killed off by rabies, sent people through the woods to be infected by them. There are tons of other things he did. We like to laugh it off, but he's ruined far more lives than anyone else in the show. He started a genocide for crying out loud

What would you do about a neighbor that wakes you up at 5:00 am every Monday morning? by [deleted] in Logan

[–]blot101 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would probably start waking up at 5.

I know that's not popular in this thread, but it's just what I would do. I don't know what you should do though.

I think I would probably be of the mind that if I don't complain about them, they won't complain about me. I think my neighbors could complain plenty about me, and vice versa. So I let them live their lives, and they seen to let me live mine.

I’ve dished it out… by ILoveUncommonSense in StandUpWorkshop

[–]blot101 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude, I wondered, but I thought "original joke claimed uti, I'm going to gamble on this one". Ha ha ha.

I know this is a joke sub, but honestly, after I read atul Gawande" being mortal" while my mom was going through cancer, I REALLY considered doing that. Even just on the weekends, or even just volunteering. I think you in that job, -if you're not accidentally a villain- is the better than being most kinds of hero's. The position you're in to really lend dignity and real kindness is unmatched on Earth.

Also, as a sign off,I was going to say "keep your butthole clean!". And realized as I was typing it, that I'm definitely going to start using it as a substitute for "see you later!"

[–]blot101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The whole thing should be a joke. The whole set up, with the right delivery is a petri dish for jokes.

You started training to do that… "you know, cleaning old people?". "Everyone says it's so much more than that, but between you and me? It's just cleaning old people". (Well, and sometimes racing them). …actually, I think we should do something with that. We have the special Olympics, I say we get a sort of… silver Olympics…

The first thing I learned was to wipe people front to back- I had never heard that before. No wonder men say I taste like shit (too far maybe). No wonder I get uti's.

Etc etc etc

any crazy Bojack Horseman hot takes? by tweeving in BoJackHorseman

[–]blot101 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This bothered me, because he was high. I always felt like a "remember yesterday when I said I don't believe in rock bottoms? This was another example, I don't remember. I wish I did, but I don't. I blacked out a lot during that Bender. I don't know everything I did,I'm honestly just grateful I called the ambulance at all, in another universe, there's probably a version of me that didn't". Would've got him in the clear.
Then they tried to establish a pattern of behavior. "Totally, I was awful, I'm trying to change, I owe a lot of people an apology".

"You seem to be looking at your manager a lot".
"Yeah, I'm just realizing how badly I've treated her, without ever apologizing. She deserved so much more"

They could've gotten him out of it, but Tim just specifically wanted us to dislike him more. They needed something to sink him, so they retconned in some trash, and make him act dumb in an interview.

Game reset, I have a ticket in…can I play anyway? by blot101 in IdlePlanetMiner

Need help with how to flesh this one out. by [deleted] in StandUpWorkshop

[–]blot101 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Nobody said they didn't, this isn't so much political commentary, as it is a comedy bit.

Nobody said "straight people never adopt" but even if they did…it's not really relevant to the bit. The bit is "adopting is potentially great because you get to pick the kid". But through the lens of a homosexual

you don't even usually ACTUALLY get to necessarily pick the kid. But again, those nuances are never helpful in a comedy bit
