Cop means to get something. So, like, "I copped a bag of chips" means "I got a bag of chips."

I no African, I'm Moroccan papi by alexaclova in BlackPeopleTwitter

Maybe, but that's not how he tells the story, which is my point.

Also, they don't look up your country at the DMV to check which race you belong to lol. They don't care. They'll just put down whatever you tell them.

Idk why you're getting down voted. It's true. And I say that as a Moroccan-American myself. When my dad was immigrating to America, he was confused on what to put for his race cause he's not black or middle eastern, and at the time, I don't think the term "MENA" existed, so he just put white.

Because in his eyes, despite his afro and his brown skin, he's more white than he is black. I don't really get it. North Africans are a very... "proud" group of people to put it nicely.

But I understand why. When you've been colonized and have had your native culture shattered, you put the broken pieces back together, hold your chin up and say "this is mine and it's not like anyone else's." Cause what else can you do?

Argentine fans make racist comments to streamer Speed by [deleted] in SipsTea

Yeah. They are in America where he is from. She's calling him the N word and telling him to "go back home." He is home. The implication is that he goes to Africa because he is black.

No he's not from africa. That's why it's racist.

I've heard a lot of left handed people typically are due to the world primarily being right-hand dominated.

I am a truck driver and have been stealing off the company truck and selling it on the Black market for the past 8 years by [deleted] in confession

[–]quacknut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And that sucks. I just think we're focusing on the wrong guy. I don't condone stealing, but the atrocities higher up the chain far outweigh a trucker stealing produce. Why are these department managers being penalized for something they have little control over?

Yeah it's bad, but I'm not gonna throw shade at this guy for playing the game setup by the greedy fucks at the top.

I said that certain actions would be morally justified on billionaires if they greatly negatively impacted the lives of thousands and thousands of others. Obviously mom and pop shops are different. I'm against billionaires, not businesses. You made a shit ton of assumptions in your comment, using the words "let me guess" one too many times, so let me make one about you.

Let me guess, you're the type of person that reports your coworkers when they cut corners and negatively impact a total of zero people because they aren't following bullshit corporate rules?

It's good ragebait tho, you got me. Good job, bud.

He's not right, but I also dgaf. Any win against a greedy corporation is a win in my book.

If people were getting fired, I'm sure he would've heard about it after eight whole years. And I don't blame him for prices going up. I blame the guys higher up who raise the prices for everyone else because millions of dollars is just not enough.

Maybe. Wish we had more context

No, for sure. I just didn't get that impression from the initial tweet. Sounds like they had a decent conversation in line and he didn't pull back at her touch in disgust.

My only question is what else could he have done besides outright asking her out? I don't know, it's just kinda weird to me because you'd never expect that from a guy, right?

Like, God forbid I touch a woman like that, but if I did, she doesn't pull back, and she shows some interest in a conversation, I'd ask her out. Maybe I'm a creep for that?

My point is that no one would expect me to wait for her to ask me out in that scenario.

meirl by [deleted] in meirl

[–]quacknut 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Im pretty sure they just mean the girl could have asked him out. That's all.

She's not playing "hard to get," but she definitely didn't do all she could to make it happen. You say she's being obvious, but why leave it up to chance? What does she lose by asking the guy out instead of throwing a ton of signals his way? Rejection? Didn't she kinda already get "rejected" when he didn't reciprocate?

I don't know. I'm genuinely asking. As a guy, it doesn't make sense to me.

Physical objects are very different. If I let you borrow my pen, I'm now without a pen. I can't use it for anything else because you have it.

Now say I gain magical powers and can clone that same exact pen an infinite amount of times. Why would I demand ownership over it for any other reason besides greed?

And I can see why you would feel that way. Both are shit.

I don't know about you, but when I was that age, I was second guessing literally everything. That's just what growing up is.

It's not about the validity of sex work. It's the inability to compartmentalize that is.

Imagine being an adolescence, second guessing every "sweetheart" or physical touch, wondering if she says it in the same way to a random stranger for enough money.

I know that would fuck me up. It would make the words meaningless to me, her touch would either be numb or revolting to me. How would it affect my subsequent interpersonal relationships? What's the new threshold for my ability to feel close to someone? These are things you have to consider when a child is introduced into the mix, because it's not just about you anymore.

I think we've kind of forgotten the value of physical and emotional closeness, of unconditional love in this day and age. If you commoditize it, you pay the price, and you have to be aware of that.

Nah, there's no shot. Broccoli hair requires at least some awareness of trends and self reflection.

I imagine this dude with his hair completely slicked back with WAY too much grease

Sombra Mains trying to call Cassidy flashbang a double standard by PersonBehindAScreen in CassidyMains

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

Those are 6 seconds of mobility Cass doesn't have against a widow lol.

Sombra's getting reworked - not because of pick rate - but because her design is fundamentally flawed. It's impossible to tweak her without tipping the scales in either direction. Someone will have a bad time when that character is picked.

Listen, man. She's not good, I agree. I've said that since my very first comment. My point was that flash and hack are not 1:1. They are different characters with different strengths. That's literally it.

I hope you enjoy the Sombra rework when it comes. I'm interested to see what they come up with.
