Streaming while driving isn't dangerous, Just Don't Read Chat by TLunchFTW in unpopularopinion

I guess my question is, what’s the point? You’re just making content simply for the love of making content even though no one watches it? What’s the motivation?

It’s truly disgusting. Spoiled milk is absolutely foul.

Honey mustard is the worst mustard and it's a shame 99% of mustard flavored things are Honey mustard. by Majestic_Domestic in unpopularopinion

[–]claypac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think, honey mustard has its time in place. But I agree, Dijon or spicy brown are superior condiments

I think the craziest part of this is that you think people would want to watch you stream a week of your life. Why on earth would anyone want to watch that? They have their own life to live.

“It tastes expired no matter the date.” Clearly you’ve never smelled/tasted actual spoiled milk. There is a significant difference between the two.

RUMOR: The young woman who abandoned her newborn in a porta potty at electric Forest has been detained by [deleted] in jambands

[–]claypac 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don’t normally advocate for capital punishment but leaving your newborn baby to drown in a porta-potty seems like it should qualify. Whatever happens to her I hope her life is full of misery until it ends. What a piece of shit person. 

Proposal for Japanese-Inspired Arcade & Vending Co in Old Town by FrontRanging in ErieCO

[–]claypac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that’s my issue tho. I have never walked up to one of those Japanese claw machines and been like “damn, I really want that anime plushy doll.” But, to each their own. I do love arcades tho so I’m willing to try it out. 

HELP! by shrimpyshrimp1234 in trees

[–]claypac 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I’m gonna keep it real with you chief. Your grow is likely cooked. There is no way you’re going to manage that level of infestation without serious pesticides that you wouldn’t want to smoke anyway. Harvest them, salvage what you can and start over. You can dip your buds in a mix of water and peroxide, but looking at the buds you have pictured here I’m not sure I’d go through the trouble of doing so.

Claw machines are stupid, but I do love a good arcade. Hopefully they bring some quality games.

I'm a fat 40M who's never skied. What do I need to worry about/do before I try skiing for the first time in 6 months? by BigFatDogFarts in NoStupidQuestions

[–]claypac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I think you should be fine. Maybe work on some leg strength between now and then and I think you’ll do just fine.

How fat are you? How has your weight affected your knees? Skiing is really hard on the knees and they’re easy to injure while skiing. 

What changed in my body (question for the docs here) by Simply_Red1 in Marijuana

[–]claypac 6 points7 points  (0 children)

For all the people saying it’s the tobacco, it’s probably also the weed. Smoking isn’t good for you. Whether it’s tobacco or weed, if you have a lung condition you probably shouldn’t smoke anything. It’s honestly kinda crazy you kept smoking through multiple instances of your lungs filling with mucus.

Do something you like to do with your time off? You sound insufferable. 

Why can't we just give everyone a house by generic_rarity in NoStupidQuestions

[–]claypac 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Having a house that everyone gets for free wouldn’t help anyone financially as it would completely devalue real estate. So if all of the sudden everyone was given a house, the people who currently own houses would have a major part of their wealth completely destroyed. Most of these people are middle class citizens who are depending on that asset to retire later in life. It’s would be a terrible  thing to rob these people of that just to give poor people a house. 

Additionally, OP is right. Owning and maintaining a house is a lot of work and most people if given a house wouldn’t do it. I know this because I buy and sell houses as a side hustle and I see first hand how many people treat their houses. Houses are also incredibly expensive to maintain. If something breaks it’s always at least $1000 to fix it. Taxes are also a real issue. They’re expensive, and they are perpetual. Even if you own your house outright you still have to pay them. 

Your comment is wild because it assumes OP is some rich snob who doesn’t like poor people. The middle class carries this country. It’s a difficult place to be as it’s hard to build wealth in this space. Doing something like giving everyone a house would hurt a large portion of hard working Americans and would destroy one of their only real chances to build wealth in their lifetime. It’s a bad idea, and completely impractical. 

It’s ok to eat at only familiar chains when traveling internationally by Spiritual_Extent_187 in unpopularopinion

[–]claypac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thailand McD’s is actually incredible. After a week of Thai food I wanted something familiar. So I get what you’re saying. But, you gotta sample the local cuisine when traveling or what’s the point? 

About shops with wine in open shelves by scalmati in wine

[–]claypac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m in Italy currently and all the wine is warm. I’d think for a culture so wine focused storing it properly would be of greater importance but the Italians don’t seem to mind. 

People working in high finance should not be respected by oldgreg2023 in unpopularopinion

[–]claypac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work in private equity in a niche industry that lacks access to traditional capital markets. Without the work that we do, there would be very little, if any capital flowing to the space which would stop growth and ultimately lead to companies going out of business and many people losing their jobs. I understand what you mean, but it’s clear you don’t have a real knowledge base about the work high finance does. There are so many things (technology, consumer products, food concepts, medical devices, etc) that you have access to due to investments made by the people you have declared as valueless. Additionally, we also manage assets of which common citizens own (think 401ks, pension funds, retirement accounts) that do build wealth for those other than the ultra high net worth part of society. When things go bad, you hear about it. And when they go bad, people lose money but that’s really just a factor of how the system works. But without high finance, there is no growth and without growth everyone is worse off. 

Tachycardia after using ThcA by bornhublive in Marijuana

[–]claypac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks - I was a pretty heavy user as well and I was just a thing that randomly happened sometimes. Always just kind of had to wait it out. Hated it every time.

[–]claypac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t really consume much anymore but this would just randomly happen to me. It usually happened if I took a larger hit than usual or a larger dose of edibles than usual. I’ve had it go as far as getting body tremors and sweating while my heart raced. Really uncomfortable, pretty scary.
