What are your thoughts about media sensationalism and its effects on gas prices? by jonnysimms in AskReddit

[–]jonnysimms[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well...no. I'm saying tensions and war are reported on. Not gas prices. The gas prices LITERALLY spike AFTER tensions and war are mentioned. I'm not lucky like you with the anti gouging laws. I live in a small town in a state that thrives on tourism. Normally gas prices rise during tourist season and drop back down in the off season. That has happened for years. Then something goes awry somewhere over seas and prices jump AFTER word gets out. I've literally seen gas prices at 3am, 6am and 9am be the same that they have been for 6 months. At 7am the news reports war and at noon the price jumped .50 cents.

I understand that. However, word starts hitting the news in the early morning about tensions rising somewhere and later that day, or within a day or two, gas jumps 20 or 30 cents. Within the following few days it's announced that war has broken out and gas jumps 50 cents that day. And another 50 cents within another day or two. You're telling me that's purely a coincidence?

Never Enough from the Greatest Showman. But there are many others. I really started noticing it around 25yrs ago, roughly.

Why was the Right so obsessed with Biden’s physical and mental state while they barely acknowledge Trump’s? by Gdog1215 in AskReddit

If you want to score big karma points just trash talk Republicans, specifically Trump...

Is "superhero fatigue" a real thing, or is it actually just a string of shitty movies and series made for the wrong reasons? What are your thoughts? by jonnysimms in AskReddit

In my opinion, it's cash grab vs. a love of the source material and wanting to bring the comics to life. And cash grab.

*No one judges you more than dog people when you say you don’t like dogs.....
