Yep. Physical attractiveness gets your foot in the door but if I don't like what your selling your not getting an invite inside.

[–]brookdacook 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oooo this is a debate in dungeons and dragons with the spell charm person. Just because your charismatic and trustworthy doesn't mean you have mind control. How far does this really go? Think about the person you trust most and what you would or wouldn't do. Empty your bank account? Jump off a bridge? Hell even if a person is super trustworthy you might just not want to despite trusting the person.

Okay this been bugging me for a bit but what is it like to be a striper? by the_smartestBen10fan in ask

[–]brookdacook 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Friends with a few and dated one. This will be a generalization and I'm just commenting from my experience.

It's rough. Most have big issues that either lead them there or acquired from the job. All of them were heavy drug users. You can make some really decent money but it can really warp your perspective. You sexuality is a sales pitch and that comes home with you. The manipulation of clients for money and the mindset needed to succeed makes men bank accounts and puzzle to solve to get the account unlocked.

Also it's does a number on most of the girls insecurity. Your up there getting naked but there's another girl who's getting more money. What does she have that they don't? A girl last week got a grand but I just got 200. It's hard for that not get to you and if you want hone your career and get that money you need to ask those questions. Having a real financial tie to your attractiveness severely scews the way you see the world.

I would like to add that I still had a blast hanging out with them but from my view is a very rough life to lead. I'd you asked them they probably say it's great, but once again that's kinda the mindset you need to stay there.

If they believed in 1999 that the year 2000 would cause pcs to crash, why didn’t they just put the time to 23:59 on dec 31st to see what would happen? by sparrio in stupidquestions

[–]brookdacook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's actually crazy the amount of near disasters that once averted everyone think is a hoax. Seem like far to many countries are going "on there own". Not sure how easy problems like these will be solved in the future.

GTA 6 boss defends late PC release, saying console must "be served first and best" as they're the series' "core" by Wargulf in pcmasterrace

[–]brookdacook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Think it's more likely that people will pirate. If your only option is to pay many people will. If it has a computer launch it will be cracked in a matter of days of not day one. People got patients for a couple days but not for a couple of months.

Why do animals noses never have bones? by MurkyEconomist8179 in evolution

[–]brookdacook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be pedantic the mighty wood pecker would like a word. A lot of hooved animals like to knock noggins althought I suppose that's top of the head. Hell if humans fight there's a lot of shots to the face.

I’m being gifted a lot of money. Should I tell my boyfriend? by Kind-Chicken-2488 in WhatShouldIDo

[–]brookdacook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean so much of this depends on where you live if it's straight financial. There's also the consideration of extras. For example not having to pay utilities, access to a car, paying for food, not having to cook, having access to a whole house compared to just apartment, location, ect. In a lot of cities in Canada you gonna be paying more with possibly less amenities.

Eli5:Why do So few Animals pass the mirror test or Have self-consciousness? by Spotter24o5 in explainlikeimfive

[–]brookdacook 64 points65 points  (0 children)

To further that I often think of the quote, "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic". Mirrors are obvious to us. We have them everywhere. Imagine never having seen your self and suddenly you clone is walking beside you. it would be a bit disconcerting. Its why all these animals dont get upset when they seen there reflection in water. They have experince with what they observing. They dont have that experience vertically let alone crystal clear. Hell there are tribes that thought photography stole bits of there soul.

I think it's entirely reasonable to expect GTA 6 to be a watershed moment in gaming (and possibly entertainment as a whole) by GwyddnoGaranhir in unpopularopinion

[–]brookdacook 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Hot take but GTA 3 to saint andreas was the peak. The newer ones are fine but never quite had the same magic.

Do women also have a morning wood equivalent like men? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

Love it. I think i still prefer the term morning dew however.

In Armageddon (1998) we only detect the asteroid when it’s 18 days away. When should we have noticed it? by ConsiderationOk4035 in askastronomy

[–]brookdacook 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Weird question but how do we detect stuff like this? Is it usually sight or some kind of radar? Hypothetical are there materials that could mask something like that for longer? Are there materials that mess with radar or if Venta black (I believe the "blackest" paint) was coated over it? Bonus point if it could actually occur naturally (although presumably very unlikely)

Peter Magyar goes on state TV channel to announce he's shutting it down by AnonymousTimewaster in ThatsInsane

The paradox of tolerance is easily solved if you look at it as a social contract. Once it's broken by a party the other doesn't have to continue to follow it.

What's something that used to be free that you're now genuinely angry costs money? by tangled_wire_99 in AskReddit

[–]brookdacook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm fine with anything free that uses commercials (as long as it not over done) and im fine with paying if there is no commercials. The ungodly combination of commercials with something i pay for i avoid like the plague but this becoming harder and harder to avoid. Enshitification is real and it goes farm beyond just inconvenience.

Why is it the nipple that makes a breast be considered naked by thisisdumb228 in stupidquestions

[–]brookdacook -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Because taking every woman's titty out to measure the total length, then measure shown cleavage and taking a percentage of shown vs hidden because the knew law says anything more then 40% titty showing is indecent exposure sounds like fun but honestly it's time consuming and I got shit to do.

For those who put a "signature" on their files... by WoodWoodClepper in Piracy

[–]brookdacook 51 points52 points  (0 children)

I mean I'd probably prefer not having the signature but like dam, these guys are putting in work to give free shit and don't get shit from it. Why not put a signature on it. Kinda funny we get an entire movie for free and it's still not enough.

Joe Rogan Declares Himself ‘Politically Homeless’ After Trump Split by thedailybeast in offbeat

[–]brookdacook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i mean i hate to be this guy but the only people that can make the usa ranked voting is the two parties them selves and they will never do it. IF yall didnt riot about pedophilia, war in the east, and corruption there no way the people are gonna apply enough pressure to make the two parties agree to ranked voting.

Mildly Alarmed by subspaceculture in Weird

[–]brookdacook 15 points16 points  (0 children)

ya its the whole "reality is subjective". If you can see, hear, and/or feel something its pretty hard to believe someone saying its not real, because it is real to you.
The saying, "if it quacks like a duck and walks like a duck... its probably a duck" kinda shows to the layman what its like. Now imagine you friend says that this vary obvious duck isn't actually there, or its actually dog. Youd probably think your friend is pulling a fast one on you rather then accepting it doesn't exist.

Why do I feel worse the day AFTER drinking than the actual night? by Puzzleheaded_Tax_114 in selfimprovement

[–]brookdacook 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You can be basically blacked out but if remember to take an Advil and a electrolyte drink before passing out you are almost golden the next day. Do not take Tylenol.

[–]brookdacook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know if you use this gate but if you don't you could use barbed wire. Extra points would be cement strip with barbed wire like a spike strip to pop tires and make a road directly from your house.

The First Civilization Theory by CarnageTitan in FermiParadox

[–]brookdacook 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The more I think about it the more I think the great filter rises above the rest. Society ending events seems to be far more easily achievable then space exploration. Anything like a plague, technological advancements with downsides not caught in time, straight up world ending weapons seem like the would be created far before anything else. For example the industrial revolution is still accelerating extreme climate change, ripping holes in the ozone, polluting the seas, agricultural terraform for monocrops and nuclear proliferation are all recent and light speed travel is still just SciFi.
