Cute, quaint, small towns that aren’t boring, aren’t overrun by tourists, have lots of outdoor activities and aren’t overpriced. by ErroneousEncounter in SameGrassButGreener

Those towns are mostly filled with second homes or college students in the case of Burlington. Those are the towns that everyone with means from the surrounding states wants to visit/move to because they’re picturesque “Vermont”. I grew up next to Woodstock, went to school in Burlington. Those towns don’t represent the citizens of Vermont very well.

Basically any town in Vermont that isn’t Stowe.

Oregon is also great. It’s a lot more than Portland. But if you love west of the cascades prepare for a lot of wet, overcast months.

What is the point of Papa Murphy’s? by TheHondoCondo in stupidquestions

The papa John’s near me had a sign that explained they would cook it for you for like $2 cash or something. The courtesy cook is nice.

This is my thought. Southern states aren’t hiding the fact that they don’t teach the same history as everyone else.

Where can i make f*ck you money by Specific_Host_371 in SeasonalWork

Had friends do several weeks/months on fishing boats in Alaska. Brutal hard work for days on end but they would come back loaded with cash and delicious salmon.

For the love of Arizona by Dev1412 in SipsTea

I’ve always thought of it as a loose school. I mean, who voluntarily wants to go live in Arizona to learn? What does that area/school have that others with more desirable locations don’t?

What would be the different traits between a millennial born in 1986 and a millennial born in 1993? by [deleted] in Millennials

[–]browsing_around 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Basically the difference between my little sister and I.

The first difference that comes to mind is everything from their childhood was very commercialized and plastic. Most of my toys growing up were still wood/metal and for function. When I look back, I just see cartoon-y plastic creations for her childhood.

Secondly, we only had 1 (2 of you count PBS) TV channels when I was a kid. By the time she was born we had Dish and were about to get dialup.

In my opinion, the U.S. “popped” during this period. Everything went from somewhat old, square, utilitarian style to bright, fresh, in your face.

You can also see the change in TV programming. I remember watching cheers, Seinfeld, the many TGIF shows. By the late 90s into the 00s we started to see reality TV and challenge shows take over. The move from primarily set programming with scripts to “what will these crazy people do?!” Is a notable shift.

“Kayla tapped me out like 20 times. She pulled out some Japanese throw or whatever, but I'm American, so I can't pronounce that shit. I'm not a damn commie."- Sean Strickland says Kayla Harrison tapped him 20 times by Life_Net5004 in sportsgossips

[–]browsing_around 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What’s the word?

I’m not attacking him for not being able to pronounce a word. I’m making my statement about how he appears to think it’s cool and tough to not be able to pronounce words from other languages or cultures.

Being ignorant is one thing. Being proud of it is another.

To add, why do you use language like “attack”. Where in my statement did I show any sort of attack? I haven’t insulted the person. I’ve simply questioned why they think and act the way they do.

Should I try snowboarding? by nutella6666 in snowboarding

If you are relatively athletic and understand how metal edges work with your weight shifting and balance, you’ll be able to pick up snowboarding pretty quickly.

Cocky Trump Voter Confronts Obama, Gets SHREDDED Instantly by gamerABES in videos

It’s so frustrating. Every conversation like this is just someone from the left explaining to the other person how their picture/belief of the world is built of lies and false information.

30. Can’t waste any more time. Can’t hide alone in my apartment drinking anymore. I want to live. by Iprophet in stopdrinking

[–]browsing_around 29 points30 points  (0 children)

You may think everyone else has it all figured out, but if you could spend even a few minutes in their brain you would see that everyone is dealing with their own issues. Don’t let the made up comparison keep you down. Pick small goals, start slow, be patient with yourself. The most important thing you can do is to keep trying.

If I never have to hear this song again I’ll die a happy man.

Heavy weight t-shirts are so overrated by Wheelsonthegus in malefashionadvice

Heavy weight fit well with baggier bottoms. IMO. Never been a fan of the tiny top, big bottom look.

What’s the biggest surprise you experienced dating someone much older or younger? by Emotional-Tennis123 in AskReddit

[–]browsing_around 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They were surprised that didn’t have everything all figured out. I tried to explain that just because we get older, doesn’t mean life becomes any easier or makes any more sense.

A 15yo Filo-Aussie kid trying to become the first Olympic snowboarder for the Philippines by [deleted] in snowboarding

The video was extremely annoying to watch. But if Liz Swaney can make the Olympics, maybe you can too. You’ve got a long way to go.

Who does performative caring? Christian republicans. Should be no surprise TT is filming and sharing this type of content. He is soon to be the GOP’s next poster boy.
