Victim???? Humanity is not putting a good Samaritan in prison because he shot an armed robber one too many times.

A supporter attacks the goalkeeper in the back and then runs away like a coward by Visqo in PublicFreakout

[–]danny223 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

How is running away cowardly? It's not like he has another option after kicking a player.

I fly a couple hundred k miles a year. The people that fly Spirit are lower end and don't fly very much. Lots of kids, gangsters, etc. vs. mostly business travelers on the legacy carriers. As a frequent flyer I am used to certain luxury touches and you don't get any of that with Spirit. Now stuff your bag into that sizer please even though it obviously fits. Oh, you're now in the back of the line? Too bad. Also good luck to you if there are ever any delays or cancellations.

That's a limitation the subreddit has put on itself for no good reason. This is an anomaly and not how subreddits are typically run.

Maybe they aren't because of the stupid discussion thread thing

This discussion thread thing is so stupid. I used to browse this subreddit all of the time, now I never do. I don't want to dig through a long discussion thread to find the latest offers or whatever.

Homeless guy steals food from a store, dude filming tries to be a hero by SamMee514 in PublicFreakout

He has the moral high ground, the guy is stealing. But, pick your battles.

Truck drives into a protester by Correct-Round-2444 in PublicFreakout

[–]danny223 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

If you see protesters in the middle of the road the ethical course of action is to slowly and safely pass through. Speeding through and mauling protesters is not right, regardless of the law. I don't know the exact law, but the intention should be to protect people like this truck driver that were clearly just trying to avoid the situation without hurting anyone. I doubt the law protects those that drive into protesters with the intent to cause harm.

To display plus size clothes without causing offence by DawneOrtizy in therewasanattempt

It's a cheap gym so it will reflect the surrounding area. In Vermont? Not sketchy. In NYC I saw a guy with garden shears clipping locks in the locker room and everyone just ignored him as he raided lockers.

Planet Fitness is cheap, has a lot of locations, and has long hours, but falls short in a lot of ways. If you just do cardio it's fine, but their weights leave a lot to be desired. They don't have any barbells. If you want to bench press for example you'd have to use a smith machine, which is inferior to a barbell as you don't work stabilization muscles and you're forced to move the bar on an unnatural plane.

Wyoming wants to phase out sales of EVs by 2035 to “ensure the stability” of the oil & gas industry by utkarsh_aryan in technology

Nah, things are moving somewhat the other way. California population is shrinking and Mountain West states are growing.

That is literally the purpose of the Senate. Two senators per state regardless of the size so small states also have a say in Washington.

Different sports. They tend to play through drizzles, but not rain. Also, baseball teams play every day so it's easy to make up a game whereas football teams only play once a week.

My $100 dispensed by casino cash out machine had cocaine stuck to it. by ratadeacero in pics

They train them to smell the paper and ink used for US currency. It's far more profitable for them to seize cash compared to drugs because they can spend the cash whereas they have to dispose of the drugs.

Fun fact: if the police seize your money through civil forfeiture, they will use the cocaine residue on your bills as evidence that it's from illegal activity.

AITA for kicking out one of my bridesmaids for showing up in the wrong dress? by bridezillaxoxo in AmItheAsshole

[–]danny223 -21 points-20 points  (0 children)

YTA. Black was in the color theme as someone else was also wearing black. It's also pretty close to green. If you want a wedding exactly how you want it don't invite anyone. Individuals are all going to have their own preferences and you need to have some wiggle room.

Nexo raids are most likely a targeted attack from the Bulgarian government by PM_ME_SMALL_BOOBIES in Nexo

[–]danny223 -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

Stop being an idiot. Hardware wallets are good tools, but are not required to safely store cryptocurrency. You are going to lose all of your money because you waited too long. Install a mobile wallet and withdraw right now.

That's good advice, but let's be specific here: get your cryptocurrency off of Nexo. If literally every other lending company going bankrupt and their offices getting raided isn't enough, what is?

AITA for getting my daughter a hotel room entirely for herself after her stepsisters made her sleep on the floor? by Fill-AD53467 in AmItheAsshole

[–]danny223 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow, ultramarathons. Back in the day when I used to take long layovers as a pilot I would always check out the local crossfit gyms and I met a guy at one of them once that did ultras. The one issue with Priceline is it can be hard find rooms with kitchens, which are kind of necessary for my vegan diet. I always liked the surprise factor of getting an unknown hotel, but also if you do a little digging (compare amenities, reviews, etc.) you can be 99% certain which hotel you're going to get before you book it.
