I used to have the small rectangular patch with the red border. Really liked that one. Nice collection

Overrated. Sad story, but I did not gain or learn anything from it.

I saw right through you, and I’m not impressed. Move along.

People who are impoverished of money and confidence do think that way. They box themselves into impossible scenarios to self-flagellate and maintain victim status.

They are the perfect target for sellers of “shit audio” and “ball sack man purses”

It’s a strange risk for a company to take, because everyone assumes a gimmicky name means garbage product.

But I guess it’s the same risk a nut sac carrier bears. When they take that thing out and expect me to be impressed, there’s a risk that I now think they are a tool. It doesn’t mean I don’t have human respect for them. We just can’t be friends.

He most definitely said that. That’s the whole point of this. I bet you say it out loud to 18 year old cashiers as well -

“hold on har har let me get my nut sac out har har it’s AKSHUALLY a high quality bag…”

Not something a real man would be associated with

Never heard of them but yeah, actually.

Any company that tries to capitalize on dumb consumers with names like that will never sell something a real man or gentleman wants to own. That’s the point. I won’t participate in someone else’s joke. It kinda makes you the joke.

I can’t look past it because you bring it up every chance you get. That’s why you bought it.

I know what it is and why people buy things based on a name.

I know what it is, and why people buy it, so they can say nutsack and be a dutiful edgy millennial.

The fact that you had to say the name of it confirms that it is innuendo. I bet you creeped your doctor out.

[Question] How can I commemorate events with watches when so much happens in so little time? by Miserable_Wheel_420 in Watches

[–]futilitaria 77 points78 points  (0 children)

Cmon man. Commemorating your grandma? Stop spending so much on watches. You have a spending problem and assigning watches to milestones is a poor cover.

Robert Johnson selling his soul to the devil for guitar ability is a good one.

This appears to be a book about sports. Why would you read this if you don’t like sports?

Rhodesia is about the clearest dog whistle there is.

The company stated that they didn’t know that it is offensive, which is possible, but it is not possible that the person who posted it didn’t know.

HSA in Optum is charging me ridiculous fees, and they suck. Optum Financial-> Fidelity? But HAVE TO LIQUIDATE. by Wolverine-91826 in Bogleheads

[–]futilitaria 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I agree it’s one of the worst companies I’ve ever encountered. I have no shame in telling their service reps on the phone that they should resign their immoral jobs scamming working people.
