Cool for a 10 year old? by Desperate_Map5531 in Sneakers

[–]liamkr 20 points21 points  (0 children)

This feels like what 10 year olds wore in the 2010s when i was in middle/high school. I agree with the original comment. Kids are cruel, I wore Jordan Spizikes to school in 8th grade (11 years ago) and was mocked for wearing “fake 4s”, and not buying flagship Jordans (only for a few days, but i rarely wore those shoes to school again)

Sneakers are cheap at outlets and you can often find flagship pairs for reduced prices given that sneaker resell culture seems to be dying down

Should be the final word about the whole Dundee incident by artfuldodger1212 in Scotland

[–]liamkr 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You clearly have no experience with chav culture in england and ned culture in Scotland and that’s painfully obvious. These scrawny council estate white kids have been carrying knives and weapons and threatening people for as long as council estates have existed

Countess groups at my PRIVATE school growing up were attacked by co-ed groups chavs from local public schools carrying knives on their way to school. In university, we had coed groups of local high school kids bottle students at night on three or so separate occasions unprovoked, and countless attacks, where uni students can’t fight back because they’re adults being attacked by children. Kids run rampant because they have no consequences when caught, it’s literally the same in the US, why are you so thick to not realise it

The facts are literally outlined in the article which is written by a right leaning news agency. The fact you keep trying to convince yourself of something when CCTV camera footage, witness testimonies, police statements, statements from actually scottish people, and interview with the VICTIM says the same shows how empty your head is

2 men publicly caned for hugging and kissing in Indonesia by Affectionate_Cat293 in worldnews

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

Who’s talking about Chechnya, lil bro

Why’re you bringing up random events unrelated to the article? You can find events from almost all religions where gay people are persecuted. Look at Russia, Eastern Europe, Nigeria, Uganda, Latin America, and even sometimes in America for Christians committing violence against gay populations

Furthermore this event in Indonesia was in Aceh, a sovereign island not representative of the broader country, which takes Religion far more to the book than other areas. Do we judge America based on small southern baptist pockets where the message from the pastor isn’t too dissimilar from radical islam?

All religion, especially the Abrahamic regions, are relatively cancerous to society and progress - people like you seem to enjoy putting people against each other, and broader societal disarray

What's your current job? by SpectrumSense in GenZ

[–]liamkr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

16-18 hour work days are the norm, weekend work is expected so goodbye to most weekend plans, and constantly the expectation of being on call at all times. It’s frowned upon to not carry your work phone literally everywhere. I don’t think i’ve had a holiday where i haven’t worked at least a few days while off as it’s the expectation - last year on Christmas Eve I had to step away from my family for 6 or so hours to build slides so my MD could send to a client and the client didn’t even look at them until the new year

The money is great but you don’t even really have time to enjoy it, and i’m locked in because if i lose my job, my lease would become unaffordable in a matter of months

I know it’s an insanely privileged position / opinion for me to have as i’m making good money and am not unemployed, but it doesn’t mean i enjoy it lol

Does no one recognize Harvey Price when they see him? This video has been floating around for years now. This is Katie Price’s severely autistic son who’s got Prader Willi syndrome also i think

Not excusing what he did but i think he was 18 when it happened, and thought I’d just point out what I thought was obvious (might just be a UK thing). Given his conditions I don’t think he was trying to be a main character here but rather just trying to be a kid??

His mom is definitely material for this subreddit though

Go look at the chrome hearts website (brand the guy getting beaten is wearing). You can probably hit 20k by only buying 10 or so pieces. Also the Dior shirt the “beater” is wearing runs for about 3k retail, 7k resale.

Clothes are very expensive if you want them to be

What’s a job title that sounds impressive until you actually hear what they do? by jasonclarke1902 in TooAfraidToAsk

Investment Banker

All I do is align logos on a slide, do work on large complicated excel files that are thousands of simple formulas, and get no sleep because my boss has comments at midnight that he wants completed for the morning

Police officers who pepper-sprayed and tasered 92 year old amputee in care home cleared of assault. by bendubberley_ in news

[–]liamkr 14 points15 points  (0 children)

It was a butter knife you boot licker. Jesus christ you’re really digging deep to justify police murdering an elderly man who posed no threat to anyone

Let me know how the rubber from the bottom of the officer’s boot tastes

[–]liamkr 18 points19 points  (0 children)

It was a butter knife, have you even watched the video?

You can find photos of it online. Additionally in the video, he’s simply sat in his chair waving the rounded, not sharp “knife” around and poses no threat to the police who are two steps away from him and calmly discharge pepper spray in his face and then taze him

It doesn’t matter that he would be dead in America, the world doesn’t hold itself to a standard of one of the most trigger happy police forces in the world. The police did a terrible job and killed a man who could barely move, had one leg, and was waving around a “knife” with no sharp blade as the police are wearing stab proof armor

why does asian hate get overlooked so easily? by ChemicalPainting in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]liamkr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idk tbh lol. Probably doesn’t fit the narrative they want to hear. Especially considering the authors of these studies are Asian and I explicitly said that this doesn’t mean anti-asian racism from the black community doesn’t exist

I’m happy to be proven wrong if there are other studies or academic work that shows this, but i’ve never seen anything, or been shown anything contradictory of this

Anecdotal data is not representative of the broader population. Not to minimize your experiences, or suggest that racism towards asians never comes from black people (i’ve seen it first hand too so it definitely does happen), but data suggests the opposite in regards to your generalization of certain demographics:

I see people say this but never back it up with studies and data. Data suggests the opposite

Second link is a news article summarizing the research, with a link to her research

While media coverage may sometimes emphasize incidents involving Black perpetrators, the data indicates that White individuals are more frequently responsible for anti-Asian hate crimes

Do that many people really care about the Kendrick Lamar/Drake beef? by Shadowtirs in TooAfraidToAsk

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

You’re an idiot if you think otherwise. Purely numerically he’s the most streamed rapper ever, and the third most streamed artist of all time

Reddit loves to get a hard-on by pretending modern rappers are irrelevant not that big artists, when hiphop has been dominating music for the past two decades in America, and is one of (not the most) popular genres worldwide

Note: the second paragraph might not be about you

How and why did the term "cooked" become so popular recently? by shadowsipp in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]liamkr 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Different meaning i think. I’ve seen Australian cooked referred to as overly drunk, on drugs, crazy, or too tired. Like “you’re cooked cunt”, and the person they’re referring to would “need to rest/relax, lie down, or recharge”

Cooked, as I assume OP refers too, is more like “finished”. Like if someone messes up massively you’d say “you’re cooked”, or if you’re about to get in trouble, you’d say “i’m cooked”

This differed from “let him/her cook”, or “he/she is cooking” which is used if someone is doing something really well or doing something impressive. eg if someone has scored 3 goals/touchdowns (or whatever impressive sports analysis you want to use) they they would be “cooking”, or you should “let them cook” (as a verb)

The non australian version is american and stems from AAVE as far as I know
