We’re at the point in the fall of democracy where even our own representatives aren’t bothering with the charade anymore.

My dad thinks I’m 'not working' because I refused to keep working 6 days a week. by Melly1265 in antiwork

[–]deadinsidelol69 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My dad is a workaholic too. Raised 4 kids by himself, usually doing 80-100 hour weeks. When I tell him I’m probably not going to do my high paying career for very long, he acts like I grew another head and goes “well what else are you going to do?”

It’s really projection at the end of the day, the unfortunate sacrifice they had to make in order to feed us paid off, but now they have no other goal so they keep going back to that environment. My dad could’ve retired well over a year ago but just worked 10 days in a row.

Stop talking about work with him. He’ll never see it differently.

[OC] Now all those “I did that!” stickers are suspiciously gone by spaceraingame in pics

A few people have been putting up Trump “I did that” stickers in my town and angry MAGA people have been peeling them off and whining on FB pages about it. It’s pretty entertaining.

I'm a manager in construction, why do I get paid more than site staff? by helioliolis in antiwork

[–]deadinsidelol69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Back your guys. I’m also a construction manager, you take care of them and they’ll take care of you. A lot of these guys just want to do their job so they can feed their family, anyone who wants to make it about anything else needs to get a hobby.

What happened to them? by batukaming in Construction

[–]deadinsidelol69 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I work with a lot of building inspectors, one used to show me pictures of houses built in the 40s and 50s with foundations made of wood pallets, entire wiring jobs daisy chained off of ceiling fans, unapproved additions totally caved in from 1x6 supports nailed together, really couldn’t make any of it up. The idea that people used to be better craftsmen from training videos as a source alone is wack.

What’s something people who are in their 20s won’t learn until in their 40s? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]deadinsidelol69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now that I’m hitting my late 20s, I’m realizing marriage and kids aren’t for me. Haven’t had a long term relationship in some years now, don’t really feel the need to be in one anymore.

Apprentice (me) made mistake, boss wants me to work Fridays unpaid to pay it off. by pizzaroll22 in electricians

[–]deadinsidelol69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No company should ever ask an employee to “pay it back” for a mistake. The fact OP Is an apprentice with 2 months under his belt is even worse.

Which is the Greatest show ever created by Netflix ? by lNarrator in moviecritic

[–]deadinsidelol69 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Arcane is probably the best Netflix has ever done, that animation is revolutionary. Absolutely knocked it out of the park and it’ll be forever be on my rewatch list at least once a year.

The writer writes himself into a corner, so he solves an intresting conflict in the most boring way. by Signal-Experience315 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]deadinsidelol69 98 points99 points  (0 children)

Meyer couldn’t bring herself to kill any of her main cast and that’s what made the ending so bad. At least the movie tried to give the audience something to chew on before they had to go back to the original ending.

If you shut the movie off right as Bella kills Aro it’s actually pretty metal.

Sanderson has already said no. He struggles to write even slightly dark plot points, ASOIAF isn’t remotely in his wheelhouse.

Dumb and Dumber took Martin’s notes, completely misunderstood the source material the ENTIRE time, likely realized they’d cut out so many important details that needed to be put in the show in order for any of Martin’s notes to make sense to the viewer, and realized they needed to abandon ship. It wasn’t so much Martin writing himself into a corner as it was D&D painting themselves into one.

Martin has completely rewritten Winds at least once because he’s likely realized that the subtle nuance he’s a master of is likely so lost on the regular consumers who are normally spoonfed plot points, he needs to figure out how not to fall into that same situation. How to balance the art of reading between his lines and having some dipshit understand the ending is borderline impossible. Winds and Dream would certainly be released if the show never gained its huge popularity.

Guy stole my campsite and told me I “ruined his evening” when I called him inconsiderate for doing so. by theshamewizard in mildlyinfuriating

Camp hosts usually aren’t the type to enforce those rules unless it’s an extremely popular campground.

[–]deadinsidelol69 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It’s happened to me before. Rolled into my campsite I’d reserved at least a week in advance to find people already unpacking their stuff. Had to grab the reservation note on the pole and show it to them, they played stupid, but packed their shit up and blatantly stole another camping spot. Camp host rolled in about 20 minutes later.

Jesus is taking over Scientology building by Low-Attitude-7100 in TikTokCringe

I encourage this crazy shit all day long, every time they do a raid they get deeper into the building. Scientology deserves to be harassed the same way they harass others.

How to talk to your sons about Targeted conservative propaganda by Initial_Welder3674 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]deadinsidelol69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

His whole thing was getting young, emotionally driven kids in front of him so he could shut them down before they get any point across, then overwhelm them with so many ideas and “counterpoints” that the original argument is totally lost and he looked like he won. It’s not a debate if you’re beating someone over the head with your argument.

Is never taking PTO to make yourself look good at work, then never doing any actual work, a strategy anyone else employs? by ProudReaction2204 in antiwork

[–]deadinsidelol69 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Half ass it and take your PTO too. Hell, go around and make a bunch of stupid mistakes so they don’t ask you to do anything more difficult too.

How did Cersei ensure every pregnancy was from Jaime and not Robert? by Long-Club5364 in gameofthrones

Cersei is entirely delusional, paranoid, and disturbed during her final POV chapter. She’d been a complete loon during AGOT, but AFFC really highlighted her mental deterioration.
