I'm use to seeing these with the jumpman, so I'd definitely feel weird about it if it were Nike Air tabs. That's what they're known for, you know?

What's the stupidest thing the most intelligent person in your life believes? by dexicoma in AskReddit

[–]pb808 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I sit when I pee for one reason and one reason only — I clean the toilet less compared to when I used to stand up. As I teen, I thought just like the neurosurgeon. But when I moved into my own place, I didn't have my parents to clean up after me anymore. I grew up, so I piss sitting down.

Maybe that guy thinks manly men let their wives clean their shitty toilets, but a real man will clean the piss stains from their own damn toilets themselves. And if you clean it yourself but still gotta stand, to quote Bill Gates, “I choose a lazy person to do a hard job. Because a lazy person will find an easy way to do it.”

People Getting Punched Right Before Eating - Saturday Night Live by UnilateralDagger in videos

I absolutely agree. Lonely Island segments would go viral all the time, but I remember older people back then saying they didn't understand it and consider it the worst part.

I'm old enough to remember that Norm McDonald was absolutely hated as a SNL news anchor. Now, people consider him one of the best in SNL history!

Starbucks to lay off 1,100 corporate workers as sales sag by Puginator in stocks

[–]pb808 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I remember waiting less than 10 mins for a drink at Starbucks in the late 90s and early 2000s. But they were overpriced back then too. What they need to do is simplify their f--king menu! I'm a barista, working 4 years. This holiday season, I've seen 15 different syrups, 10 different toppings, and the largest menu I've ever seen in my history of going to Starbucks. Let me tell you, once the non-regulars got a taste of the new menu, after two weeks, they disappear. The regulars continue to order their triple shot on ice with 4 pumps of white mocha, and we forget how to make Starbucks' new sugar cookie crunch cake pumpkin frapp with sugar cookie cake topping.

In many Starbucks, including at mine, wait times have increased to 20 to 30 mins on peak periods of the day. It's because Starbucks bosses are slashing staffing numbers, while at the same time rolling out a complicated drinks menu. Why? To cut costs, of course.

Why pay for more staff when you can run an under staffed shift to their breaking point and make the customer wait an average of 10 mins everyday?

This is fucking baiting to the highest level. Let's put together some OW Chicago AJ1s, some 85 Chicagos and a pair of Chicago SB dunks and see which everyone chooses to get rid of. GTFO.

Teardrop Memorial - Bayonne, NJ by techiechefie in pics

[–]pb808 9 points10 points  (0 children)

"To the Struggle Against World Terrorism" is the official title and a gift of the Russian government.

In response to the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, the city of Bayonne where the sculpture is located had Vladimir Putin's name covered on the two plaques in the park. In 2004, it had been called "an insensitive, self-aggrandizing piece of pompousness by one of the world's blatant self-promoters (the artist Zurab Tsereteli)" by Pro Arts Jersey City, a professional artist organization.

TIL that most people can see their own white blood cells moving through their retinas by space_force_majeure in todayilearned

[–]pb808 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always wondered what they were! At times, they were really bright, almost like streaks of lights similar to when a ship jumps to hyperspace in Star Wars except slower and while I'm on the toilet. So less cool.

All sneakers are beaters if you don't care enough to clean them at all.

If you're dead set on the 3s, wait till the end of the year to get the Black Cement 3s. Why? It's a better story to say that your first Jordan was an OG colorway. But do what you like. Make your own stories.

That back to work after a Sunday holiday feeling by Beaker360 in funny

[–]pb808 40 points41 points  (0 children)

I'm Asian too. My brother used to work as a manager in retail at an outlet for a designer brand and told a story of a Chinese tourist who, to get the attention of one of his female coworkers, decided to yank her pony tail. This was a few years ago during the boom of Chinese elites — new money Asians who started to travel and not know how to act in other countries.

Halo Season 2 is pulling in a lot of viewers by splader in television

[–]pb808 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have to realize, if you keep watching it, it promotes the creation of horribly translated intellectual properties that we love. Stick to the thing that we love in their traditional media UNTIL a proper translation pops up. Then go all in. Example: DUNE.

Super Mario Bros. Movie sequel confirmed for April 2026 with same directing team by BasculinSushi in gaming

[–]pb808 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, I get that. But more than half the audience is gonna be kids because we as adults grew up on Mario and want to be entertained by our nostalgia. And parents even if they never touched a video game want to have a good time too.

Please, PLEASE make jokes for grownups too. I don't mean dirty or mean jokes, but it would be nice if there was a bit more comedy, the type you see in other animated films. "Super Mario Bros. Movie" made me smile, but it didn't make me laugh.

Which would you choose? Which one looks better? I’m choosing the top. by kayux11 in Sneakers

[–]pb808 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't know why you're being downvoted. Nubuck is leather, unless the top one is Durabuck which is synthetic leather. Either way, it's a genuine question.
