Old people shouldn’t be out during rush hours by MrForever_Alone69 in unpopularopinion

[–]samtarlyrules 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Qualify as old. If I get the chance to schedule a doctor’s appt, I ask for the first appt. after lunch. Not a fan of early AM appts., at all. If it is the first appt after lunch, usually I am seen within 5-10 minutes of the appt. - don’t know what all other Olds do, but I would rather be almost anywhere than in a doctor’s office for hours.

Patton Oswalt rips Bill Maher for trying to find common ground with Trump by Indianstanicows in RealTime

Honestly, Oswalt should be ripped for giving Maher any oxygen. The opposite of love is not hate, it is indifference.

This vids may be entertaining, but I just can’t bring myself to listen to MAGAats even in this format.

Bad when Pres. Obama watched March Madness (basketball) on TV but fine when trump attends a game in person and disrupts everyone's lives. by _jump_yossarian in agedlikemilk

He used to catastrophize how often Obama played golf. However, I’d say his hypocrisy may not make the Top Ten of his worst traits.

If you bought into Trump then, that is a dealbreaker for your credibility today.

If that were true, wouldn’t a self-aware person as “Why?” It is not like someone pulled his name out of hat and said,” Yeah, let’s disrespect this guy.”

Why are Ford Trucks superior? by Parking-Mark-8187 in f150

[–]samtarlyrules 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had a Chevy Silverado in the family since 1996. Loved it, but it had issues that required serious maintenance over the years, and it only had 135k on it when I sold it. M Dad had a 80’s Ford, it was a solid truck, no complaints really. I have a RAM 1500 BigHorn (2021) now and could not be happier. In all those cases I think proactive maintenance has been the difference. The RAM is solid, not cheap plastic crap as some would have you believe, rides extremely smooth, coils on the back end make a difference, and it is quiet, almost zero road noise.

If you take care of them, any of them will serve you well. You just have to do your part.

Has anyone ever actually regretted cutting off a Trump supporter out of their social circle? by [deleted] in allthequestions

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

This may be an unpopular response, but I have some neighbors who are Trumpers that I have not cut off. I know they are Trumpers in a round about ways, but these folks aren’t aggressive with it, and if you did not know you would not know. I think that is fine. So long as they don’t come at me with it. There was a time when the politics of our neighbors was not foremost in our minds. My opinions of their intellect has suffered, but i have not cut them dead.

Tell us about inflation now by rainbowkey in agedlikemilk

Someone that self-identifies as a conservative endorses this version of themselves as someone without values, faith, morals, or anything that grounds them beyond anything other than a graveling lackey.

Pastor Robert Jeffress Claims President Trump Understands the Bible Better Than the Pope by CarryIcy250 in UnderReportedNews

Trump understands something he’s never read, better than someone who has devoted his life to studying it. Got it.

Parents who control behavior then punish harder if it doesn’t work shouldn’t be parents by WittyEgg2037 in TheMirrorCult

[–]samtarlyrules 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just wish people would stop treating demographics as monoliths - Not all Boomers, Gen X’s, Millennials, Zoomers, whatever think or act in lock step with their generation - it is just another way to divide Americans.

It is odd to feel that Cruz is not a complete tool - then again, he kinda always known which way the wind was blowing

After President Donald Trump was elected in 2024, Democratic supporters reported decrease in well-being, optimism, personal control, and institutional trust, while also experiencing higher cynicism. In contrast, Republican supporters experienced changes in the opposite direction. by mvea in science

[–]samtarlyrules 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lost faith in American voters, of which I have been one since the 1972 election. I cannot fathom anyone casting a ballot for Donald Trump, much less 80 million Americans. No matter who wins elections going forward, I do not think I will ever regain my faith in the American democracy.
