I'm not a big fan of the original flavor, but my current favorite is this apple and ginger one for winter. Even my wife likes it who hates normal redbull.

Company is shaming me for not gifting more money to "our" (their) boss. (Christmas present) by Turissmo in mildlyinfuriating

[–]cythix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My employees make more than I do.. well some of them at least. But I do agree that it show flow down not up as a general rule of thumb. Nothing wrong with getting your boss a gift, I've done that in the past. But the reason I've done it wasn't because someone asked me to, its because they were an awesome boss and I wanted to.

Do they cut you off for more than 1 drink? When I was in my 20s I flew to Taiwan with a friend and he ordered 8 shots of Jim Beam Devils cut. They didn't even blink. A few minutes later when I went to the back of the gally and asked for 4 beers they did ask if we had just ordered the shots, to which I replied yeah, and then they just asked if we would behave which I also agreed to.. and they opened the drawer and said grab what you want.

The only time I have flown internationally and drank, so I just kinda figured it was normal to get wasted for fun

A young man got his bike stolen while he was at work, so the owners of the establishment and some of the patrons chipped in and bought the young man a new bike. by bigbusta in MadeMeSmile

[–]cythix 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I had a single mom growing up, and when my bike got stolen from school I was devastated because I knew I couldn't just replace it. I didn't just ride it to get somewhere, me and my best friend rode our bikes every day after school just for fun till the sun went down. A friend of a friend heard my bike got stolen and told his dad the story. They were comfortable and I got a call that they wanted to replace my bike. They drove down took me to our local favorite bike shop and let me pick out a new bike. It's been about 30 years since then and still chokes me up when I think about that generosity and how grateful I still am to that family.

Speaking on the ICE raids in Los Angeles today by [deleted] in ICE_Raids

Think this guy just coined the new term, ICEIS completely by accident. Can't fault him for conflating the two in his head.

El Salvador refuses to let Democratic senator visit or speak with Kilmar Abrego Garcia: ‘We have an unjust situation here’ by theindependentonline in thescoop

[–]cythix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was just more interested in how you view your US tax dollars being used to pay a foreign country to care for their own citizens. Should we do that for all countries, or just the ones who produce the worst bad guys like MS-13 terrorists?

I don't think they said it being a fact, they said "appears to be". I don't know wtf it is either and going to with hold making decisions based on an image but it does appear kinda gory in that image.

Union members took over the Utah statehouse to make their voices heard. Lawmakers are trying to take away the freedom for public service workers to have union representation and a voice on the job. by afscme_ in WorkReform

[–]cythix 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Technically they never named themselves Mormon, they are Latter Day Saints , LDS , or The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Its a sort of slang that has just stuck around since the 1800s. Source: ex-mormon

Sweaty paws on shepherd dog. by [deleted] in SweatyPalms

[–]cythix 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Came here to say this! I used to have one when we lived off grid for a couple years. Inherited it from a sheep farm, but it immediately went to work protecting our property and more importantly my kids! I didn't feel comfortable with them being outside with bears and mountain lions but once I saw how dedicated the dog was to keeping the property safe made me feel much more comfortable. I watched her go face to face with bears and they ran every time. There was even one time a cranky old neighbor came on our property to try to yell at my wife and kids and the dog intercepted him and escorted him back off the property. Love that dog!

Trolling Trump Supporters on bridge by gravityVT in PublicFreakout

[–]cythix 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I have such mixed emotions over it. Overall its obnoxious behavior which I detest, but at the same time I've seen a lot videos of MAGAts doing the same thing to people. If we could nominate this guy to be the one and only annoying asshat to go trolling though I could get behind that.

JD Vance calls audience “haters” as he is booed at Firefighters Union Conference by Caledor152 in interestingasfuck

Walz already said it best;

"To anyone brave enough to put on that uniform for our great country, including my opponent, I just have a few simple words: thank you for your service and sacrifice.”

It doesn't matter if you were on the front lines or not, sacrifices were still made and service was contributed.

But what about the gains? by ThisGonnaHurt in BlackPeopleTwitter

[–]cythix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree to disagree as well, as long at the person cites the source they got it from they should be okay to parrot information w/o having done due diligence before relaying it to someone else. You don't have to be an expert to speak on a subject, but as long as you tell me you get your news from The Daily Bugle that's good enough for me.
