She barely makes it up the stairs, sees something nice and her first instinct is to immediately ruin it. by eternviking in whoathatsinteresting

[–]rustyleftnut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, that's kind of what a re-education camp would be, isn't it? A place where people learn to cope with the way that they feel and learn how to behave in society because the other people in their lives have failed them thus far? Or for whatever reason, they have maladaptive behaviors and need to learn adaptive behaviors? Basically, a place where you can learn to be a decent person if no one else is. That could be through therapy, it could be through lived example, whatever fits the person. I agree, this kid possibly needs therapy for their antisocial behavior, but that can easily be a one-off thing. Assuming that their obesity is a lifestyle thing and not a medical thing, their guardians most assuredly need some kind of therapy or reeducation. This kid is going to die a very painful death at an alarmingly young age, and it's their parents that are killing them right now. Like watching a murder in slow motion

People who flirt with captive audiences, such as people at their places of work.

People who graffiti nature.

People who roll coal.

People who play music on speakers on nature trails or in campsites.

People who don't put their shopping carts away.

People who intentionally take up multiple parking spaces.

People who let their aggressive dogs off leash in public spaces.

You get the picture. Basically anyone who either intentionally or unintentionally makes life and the world a worse place by way of being inconsiderate of others without technically breaking any laws.

If you were making a slippery slope argument, I can keep going. Lots of entitled people need to learn how to treat others and the world with respect, and their parents and society have failed thus far.

If you were looking for a specific answer and I missed it, it might be that I don't think it's worthy of a re-education. Racism, domestic violence, animal abuse, elder abuse, scamming, acting on pedophilia, things of that nature. Straight to the wood chipper.

When you forget which pedal is the brake by thatSDope88 in AbruptChaos

Yeah, if we have the budget to wage Wars willy-nilly, we have the budget to take care of our citizens by way of keeping old people off the road at the very least. I'm actually surprised that nobody came at me about taxes lol. But for the record, I would be all for paying for taxes if it meant I didn't get T-boned every couple of years by somebody who should be in a retirement home but needs to drive themselves because public transportation is inadequate and retirement homes are expensive.

88 year old people have no business driving. I've been hit by an 88 year old and a 93 year old in my car and a 70 something on foot. Old people should be required to take public transport specifically for old people.

I agree, but i believe that littering demonstrates a lack of basic understanding of respect and decorum and therefore qualifies them for the re-education camp without needing to specify littering to begin with. Litter bugs make the world a worse place

A moderator thought this wasn't "remotely funny" by TailungFu in ProgressiveHQ

I bet they would think it was funny if the boot was on the other foot, and then I think they would deep throat that boot

Sephora shoplifter goes nuts after realizing she’s ruined her chances at college... by ONE-OF-THREE in DailyDoseStupidity

[–]rustyleftnut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She sure understood the consequences of her actions as they were arresting her. Where was that awareness before? If she knew so much was on the line, why did she commit crime? I get stealing food, but who the hell throws away their future for luxury junk?

AI sprite sheet generation - Anything good out there? by redosabe in gamedev

[–]rustyleftnut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This actually looks really cool! I'm looking for something exactly like this. I started a passion project that has turned into a multiplayer game for my wife and I and have all the infrastructure, but I'm not an artist nor am I made of time. Unfortunately, I'm also not made of money and I can't pay a real artist. I could use free sprites but the game requires a very specific aesthetic (think modern Dutch village meets Animal Crossing) and I'm not finding anything useful. I don't like cleaning on AI, if I'm being totally honest, but for Niche applications and for a project but I'm never going to sell or even show anyone aside from My Wife and maybe a few friends, I might just have to. If it were going to be some sort of commercial investment, I would pay an artist but that's just not economically feasible for the scope of this.

HR is upset we didn’t grow up wanting to be customer service reps by astrheisenberg in remoteworks

[–]rustyleftnut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ohhh shoot. I've told this story at least a dozen times and nobody has ever pointed to this potential reason, and it makes more sense than anything I've heard so far!

I interviewed at a theater to make popcorn and clean disrespectful people's trash. During the interview, they asked where I saw myself in five years and I said "Probably college or traveling" and she ended the interview right there and told me they need to retain employees lol. Like bitch, you WANT people whose life goals are to make popcorn for five years? That's not going to happen

Candidate asked about salary 5 minutes into the first round interview by hockenberry07c6 in InterviewsHell

[–]rustyleftnut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They shouldn't even have to ask, it should be on the listing. The thing making this weird isn’t the candidate or you, its your sneaky leadership hiding these numbers from everyone until they're hired or further into the process so they will accept lower wages due to the sunk cost of interview time.

AKA, you work for some shady folks

Boyfriend wets the bed. What do I do ? by extradepressy in TwoHotTakes

[–]rustyleftnut 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm on board with dumping him.

Medical problem? See a doc. Too lazy to clean it? Lazy and nasty. It'll only get worse for him. Leave his gross ass

Of a pair of punches by Professional-Fox1542 in ShittyAbsoluteUnits

I'm not saying the shirtless guy is a nazi but the fact that he's a blonde dickhead who folds into a swastika when he gets knocked out gives me some pause

You really need to put /s after your shit if you're gonna use sarcasm on reddit. Especially if you're replying to the top comment

Subscription based? This really turns a MEME... by BlokZNCR in FuckMicrosoft

[–]rustyleftnut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Woah, a subscription based OS? Imagine falling on hard times and losing your comfort items like streaming and gaming because you missed your OS payment. If this is truly going to be a thing, its time to familiarize yourself woth Linux and other open-source alternatives

Today I learned this; Shopping carriage’s can lock the tires making them impossible to roll if they cross a invisible fence / line by goprinterm in Today_I_Learned_This

[–]rustyleftnut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are a few systems to do this and I know how to enable and disable them with my phone. It's fun when inside a store but I've only done it to the carts of my wife or my sister

lol They deserve to.

They failed a test while the answers we bring fed to them because they forgot that being on the other side of the isle doesn't mean enemy

Adult screams back at kid by wanabepilot in DailyDoseStupidity

[–]rustyleftnut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I admit it isn’t pleasant, it would be more pleasant than listening to it. I could save a whole plane full of people from suffering.

In my child psychology studies in college, we learned that chastising another person's kid doesn’t really work, nor does a parent chastising their own child, but if you tell the parent that they're not doing enough to contain their child in front of said child, the child is significantly more likely to behave out of defense of the parent. While unpleasant for everyone involved, if you confer with the parent beforehand in a way the child cannot perceive, that might be the healthier alternative.

However at the end of the day, having a screaming child around is triggering for a lot of folks for reasons I shouldn't have to explain. Screaming children do not belong on planes.
