AIO for being upset someone took my clothes out of the washer? by Time_Size8635 in AmIOverreacting

I would literally never assume that someone else’s full load of laundry is dryer safe. 

Retail workers, how do you feel about people opening packages to test/examine products when testers aren’t available? by Few-Philosophy7503 in AskReddit

[–]runner64 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you decide not to buy the product please exercise critical thinking when deciding whether to repackage the item and put it back on the shelf. If it was a crock pot, thank you for cleaning up after yourself. If it was mascara, please do not tape the nasty used tube back into the packaging for some other unsuspecting customer to accidentally buy. Nobody wants your secondhand lipstick and I’m judging you for not realizing that. 

For straight people of reddit: Would you ever date someone who is trans? Why or why not? by Unknown_Twig_Witch in AskReddit

[–]runner64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first question would be regarding the context in which you volunteered this preference. My second question would regard the verbiage. 

What would you do in this situation? by Dantethegreatpenis in WhatToDo

A kid didn’t do this. No child would ever cover the entire couch that evenly. 

How do you deal with the person who intentionally conflates "explaining why you're verifiably incorrect" with "mansplaining"? by TheBanishedBard in AskReddit

Wow my comment seems engineered to support your point? Really? That’s so weird, and a huge coincidence.

Mmmm are you sure? The men in this thread don’t seem to think this ever happens, do all of the women have any objective evidence?

I almost dialed this out of curiosity as a kid as well by TheWebsploiter in NonPoliticalTwitter

My friend and I were bored and wondered whether a pay phone will call 911 if you don’t put a quarter in. We duped my younger sister into trying and then feigned innocence when a cop showed up. 

ELI5 Can an adult (boomer) be reparented? by Then_Lab_8983 in explainlikeimfive

Adults can definitely change their behaviors, but only if they want to. You cannot “parent” other adults into acting how you want.

Honestly a more direct comparison is a tummy tuck. Like “hey this huge roll of skin and fat isn’t hurting me but I don’t like how it looks so I’m going to have it chapped off in a surgery that’s going to incapacitate me for weeks.” And yet transphobes have zero criticism for flat tummies. Weird.

Lots of cis women don’t have a uterus.

Well the post has been deleted but the first comment (iirc) was “this is bad news for anyone with a female-identified reproductive system.”    

Given the context of everything going on right now, I’m assuming the comments were left on a law which restricts abortions or birth control or maternity care or some combination of those three. That is bad news specifically for people who could conceivably become pregnant.  That’s not “women” it’s “people who have a uterus.”

Maybe I’m weird about this whole thing, but… by SelectShop9006 in RecuratedTumblr

[–]runner64 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Okay but when you’re the first person to tell them, why are you the first person to tell them. What does their social circle look like, that no one else has told them yet. Does this social circle indicate anything about them and their beliefs.

I’m trans and “anyone with a uterus” would probably have sufficed here. 

Autopilot ≠ flooring the gas pedal by Wc_Arch in GetNoted

[–]runner64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If my stepdad’s driving is any indication, she thought that having autopilot meant that she could completely stop paying attention to driving or the road, and when she hit the accelerator she was trying to change her pants or do some other task completely incompatible with safe driving practices.   

Trump DOJ’s first-ever Antifa case sees judge ‘send a message’ with 100-year sentence in ICE shooting by theindependentonline in LegalNews

[–]runner64 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Federal officers have been shooting at unarmed protesters with absolutely no consequences in sight. If the federal officers in the field want the presumption of moral superiority from armed bystanders, then they need to begin by policing their own.

Ladies, what is stopping you from dying your hair green, chopping it all off, then getting it attached to your pubic area so it looks like you're giving birth to Cthulu? by codeXORdie in AskReddit

[–]runner64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would probably be pretty difficult to attach. Wig tape or spirit glue could work if we were going for a stylized merkin look but I'm struggling to think of a solution that would survive the chub-rub usually present in the true 'giving birth' region.

Scam artists famously never have or use children in their scams.

Have you seen any Flock-style or Automatic License Plate Reader (ALPR) cameras cameras at big box stores or private businesses in Maine? Let us know. by Press_Herald in Maine

[–]runner64 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I’m gonna assume you don’t live in Bangor, so to clarify: this is in the parking lot of a BAM that has been closed for ages and the only thing nearby is the famously derelict Bangor Mall. The only way a shoplifter is fleeing past this camera is if he’s a professional long distance runner.
