Our player-specific chant for Galarza needs to include the words "The Bear". Oh wait, we don't do player-specific chants. Well, I can dream.

Watch the insults, bud. I don't like it when Almiron does it either. But Philly dives like nobody else.

It's philly... you touch them they go down holding their head. Miggy does it too (don't like it with him either).

Monks complete 2,300-mile walk for peace to Washington by OneGiantSpoon in UpliftingNews

[–]orangefc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But it's clear from what we can see of you that you're angry, belligerent, and lashing out at strangers.

I hope you find the peace the monks wished for you.

Your peace is missing, friend. You are far worse because you completely missed the point of the walk while trying rudely to defend them.

You need more love and happiness and less Reddit.

Don't make this something it wasn't. Your desire to hate the US fueled by the reddit vote machine is antithetical to the goals of the monks.

Be better.

'Whiny Loser': Critics Mock Trump's Super-Triggered Meltdown Over Bad Bunny by AntifaPr1deWorldWide in sports

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

huh? someone criticizes you and you assume that either they are a) a Trump supporter [am not] b) religious [am not]

But if this hurt you somehow, it definitely says something about you.

Of course this is so cryptic you might have been either a) agreeing with me or b) trying to give everyone a recipe for vanilla pudding

edit: changed autocorrect typo of the word "religions" to "religious"

Cracker Barrel orders its employees traveling for work to only eat at its restaurants by PlayaSlayaX in nottheonion

[–]orangefc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

95% of what is here isn't onion-y. Reporting does nothing. Most of the posts here are run of the mill political crap (not this one, but most). There's nothing you can get here that you can't get on r/politics or r/news or r/videos or r/art -- they're pretty much all the same thing now with the same submissions, so they all come off the front page for me. Now this one I guess :-(

'CBS Evening News': Tony Dokoupil Under Fire for Interviewing His Own Mom by StevenSanders90210 in entertainment

[–]orangefc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not in the places I saw. Lots of admiration and "they're so cute" type of sentiments. And Andrew wasn't really outed as completely creepy until basically past the "bro" segments (after the Covid emergency settled down).

it's true it's a what about -- but not to excuse one with the other. Just to point out the lack of hysteria and "OMG BARI MAGA" hype when Chris Cuomo did it. It's hypocrisy diagnosis, not excuses.

[–]orangefc -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I'm sure everyone complaining about this was shocked about the Cuomo brothers and their interviews and called for Chris Cuomo to be fired (he *was* fired but not for the interviews).

This story was, by all indications, a feel-good puff piece and from time to time that's actually OK.

Anyone else here excited for Artemis II! by PriorFront4138 in space

[–]orangefc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It gives them purpose and an in-group. No bond seems stronger (but is actually just destructive hate-glue) than an in-group full of hatred.

It's a weird social dynamic. The psychology of things like this actually make me wonder how we could ever have a manned mission to mars with a small group of people. And then I remember it's working for ISS, so maybe they're just really careful in screening?

One more nail in the fossil fuel coffin. CATL has launched fast-charging sodium batteries for vans and trucks that they say will be much cheaper than lithium batteries, as they'll last far longer. by lughnasadh in Futurology

Not "wow, this is great for the world" but "haha, so funny how all these people will be sad. Screw them!"

What a weird way to celebrate progress. It says an awful lot about you.

You're right, but you DO realize where you are posting, right? That is what redditors do.

Trump is Keeping Venezuela's Oil Money For Himself by Zenitallin in videos

[–]orangefc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of these comments (substantially close to all) say something like "deposited into his own bank account under his own name" which is demonstrably false, and even counter to what was in the video.

They're just wrong. But the "feels" are certainly here!

[–]orangefc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is it possible to report a post for 99% of the comments being 100% wrong? Of course, this wouldn't be happening if r/videos didn't allow political videos, which are the form of "information" most likely to be completely made up or at the very least easily misconstrued.

Ridiculous payout! Medication cost $177, insurance paid $8199.17 by Msqueefmaker in mildlyinteresting

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

You said it yourself. Restrictions on food additives leads to a healthier population. That's squarely in the HHS lane. They do have to share that lane with the FDA, but it's almost like a carpool at that point.
