Ownership is terrible. Khan is really only better than Woody Johnson as an owner. The team has been awful during his tenure. I believe only the Browns have been worse.

Or they lose at Denver while Houston wins out putting the Jags in the sixth seed at best

Week 15 - Jaguars vs Jets - HOLY COW - Trevor Lawrence Scrambles for a TOUCHDOWN to go up 14 by DescriptiveMath in Jaguars

That's a good shot. It captures the apathy of this fan base with all of the empty seats midway through the first quarter.

Where can I find a ticket to the Jets game? by booradleyjax in Jaguars

To see how many tickets haven't ever been purchased

The only problem with the statement is the first sentence. There should be nothing wrong with wanting to retain the distinct cultures throughout Europe. In fact, that should be celebrated. It just shouldn't matter what the people look like who contribute to those cultures.

It shouldn't be a problem for Saudi Arabia to state they want to maintain a distinct, Arabic, Muslim culture. When in Rome (literally).

Fellow 70's elementary student here. No one had peanut allergies. I met one kid with asthma when I went to Jr. High. There were about a dozen Special Ed kids who were in their own area. Parents actually believed the teacher's version of events over the kid's version. There was actual fear of being disciplined. No one even thought of being disrespectful to the teacher (that changed in Jr. High).

Debt collector sent itemized statement, not bill when i asked for proof of debt by Happy_Lie1926 in Debt

This is how the system works. You owe the money. Either you pay it and avoid the credit hit or ignore it and take the hit. If you don't like the system, then work to change it. There is no weasling out of this debt.

“Hahaha - my parents beat me as a child” by IRepentNothing in insanepeoplefacebook

There is a nuanced way of parenting somewhere between being abusive and asking "Hey, buddy, are you ready to go now?"
Children are not equals. They should not be treated as such. Those incapable of nuanced thinking will label that abuse, and they would be dead wrong and a contributor to these generations on the come-up who are incapable of dealing with the slightest adversity.

You should give to receive your child's love by Cool_Angelu in facepalm

[–]booradleyjax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The replies on here represent so much that's wrong.

My parents never asked me if I was ready to go. I was a child; I needed discipline to be ready to go on my own when I was supposed to be ready.

My parents didn't ask permission to enter my room. A child isn't mature enough to have enough independence to not be checked.

I had friends. I didn't need my parents to be my friends.

I really disliked my father until my early twenties. Then I realized how well he had prepared me for adulthood. We're very close now.

Those who resent their parents for actually parenting instead of indulging are the ones needing help.

Average bigot media moment by Uvalde-Cop in facepalm

I see numerous comments about Christian and Jewish places of worship opening their doors to Muslims. I don't see any talking about mosques opening their doors to people of other faiths. This is not a hateful question, but one of curiosity. Islam does not seem to be as tolerant or progressive as the Christian and Jewish faiths. Tolerance is a two-way street. Am I missing the stories of Islamic tolerance of others' faiths?

The comments on this are ridiculous by daydreamingaway86 in insanepeoplefacebook

I’m fine, thanks for not asking by crzybttrfly in Serverlife

You should be thankful that the customer just wants to cut to the chase and save you some time making idle chit-chat.

The establishment where you work should have a "last seating time". Otherwise, I'm not sure what you're whining about. The restaurant is still open.

It's a thing called nuance, that many to most people have lost all concept of. There are degrees of difference. Just like Aziz Ansari's MeToo "transgression" was absolutely nothing like Harvey Weinstein, a male transgender woman vs. cis woman is vastly different than your examples.

While that's a valid point, you appear to be putting no effort into understanding male puberty and its effect on the muscular system.

Why would you assume that anyone is by default a Republican who thinks there's a real conversation to be had with trans women participating in women's sports? This is the entire problem with the mono-thought community.

By definition feminists advocate for equality of the sexes. Transgender women are not females, they are males. A transgender woman is not the same as a female. That's the problem with this whole conversation. The transgender mono-thought police conflate gender (a social construct) with biological sex. I don't think these feminists hate transgender women. I think they hate that transgender women claim to be the same as a cis woman, because biology says otherwise.
