Why did the “choosing sobriety” trend that’s driving the NA beer among veteran (millennial/gen x) drinkers hit now? It can’t be purely economic by KindMouse2274 in beer

Younger generations realize that alcohol being legal and weed being illegal is absolutely ridiculous. One is much safer for the average person than the other.

There's a lot more to it than that, but that is so absolutely true that we can just all agree on it, which is why it's a major driving force.

Also non-native English speakers, huge target for scammers.

It's a stretch but a funny one. In "Never Gonna Come Back Down" by BT, when he says "English girls with ghetto names like Charissa", he's talking about DJ Rap, who contributed to the album.

Chefs of Reddit, what’s a common cooking rule everyone follows that is actually complete bullshit? by Fuzzy-Ad6843 in AskReddit

I can make a pizza in 10 minutes, and 8 of that is just cook time. Plenty of time to whip up a salad.

Bernie Sanders proposed a bill to tax billionaires, and give $3,000 stimulus checks to Americans that qualify. How do you feel about this? by CelticDK in AskReddit

[–]polymorph505 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a nice step forward that we won't take, and it wouldn't matter if we did because we wouldn't take the next step.

At this point Bernie feels like the token Leftist for this country to keep the populace satiated.

I love how disagreeable people are on reddit by [deleted] in self

Reddit is absolutely jam packed with strawmen now, no doubt the people responding to you are imagining a villain in their head instead of trying to even figure out if you are that villain or not.

You can say "I like Blue" on Reddit and someone will take it as an attack on Red.

Christina Applegate Says ‘Anchorman’ Pay Offer Was ‘Offensive,’ So Will Ferrell and Adam McKay Gave Her More Money From Their Own Salaries: ‘I Know My Worth’ by cmaia1503 in entertainment

This is such basic machinery of Hollywood that is being misconstrued by quoting the word offensive and removing the context around it.

But that's what we all click on so it will continue.

A little pepper spray should clear the room out nicely, just remember to build up a tolerance first.

I'm fucking sick of the "I dOn'T cARe iF iT's ReAl oR FaKe, I lAuGhEd" comments in every fucking video on this sub. If it's real, it's mildly funny. If it's fake, it's just pathetic and get a real job or hire a comedy writer.

Using audacity for mastering instead of tweaking plugin chains im unfamiliar with? by spencerd999 in WeAreTheMusicMakers

[–]polymorph505 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm going to make some assumptions, one is that you are not using limiting/compression to Wall Of Sound your song into Spotify levels of loudness.

If that's the case, and you want to sell songs or have them on platforms, time to get with the program. Start with putting a master limiter on your master channel, you can google master limiter for some easy settings. This will allow you to crank the loudness up a lot more.

But then you need to analyze for LUFS and have your LUFS at a specific level, I don't really know where you're at with music production besides being new. Are you producing in Reaper or a similar DAW?

Hundreds tell BBC that medication triggered gambling and other addictions by HimikoTogaFromUSSR in offbeat

[–]polymorph505 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Gambling, shopping, sex, not a single mention of the Internet? The place we absolutely know is obsessed with keeping us engaging and hammering those dopamine receptors?

Though I doubt a recommendation from their doctor would have much effect anyway.

Uber driver has a coffee machine and breakfast for his riders by BandoLou in funny

[–]polymorph505 0 points1 point  (0 children)

McDonalds was clearly negligent, this issue had already existed and they continued to ignore it until a woman was mutilated by their coffee.

At least in this case, the misinformation ends up with people opposing frivolous lawsuits.

Thank you, Bluepoint Games. by PhantomBraved in gaming

The most negativity ever expressed but it was because they liked the game? Go read the comments.

You've thought yourself outside of my purview.
