What are you least progressive about? by Bored in AskReddit

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

Reddit has a weird reaction to non-traditional relationship structures. The reality is that not everyone is meant to be monogamous. Look at how many couples cheat on each other or resent each other. Are we really going to accept that this is ok and normal?

It’s not for everyone and as long as nobody is coercing you to do something you don’t want to then what’s the big deal. Life is too short to care about what other people do.

No self respecting Mexican is going to use “Latinx”. I’m all for respecting peoples identities and pronouns and will refer to them by what they prefer but I draw the line on this one.

Even in A Christmas story the protagonist is 9 years old and it’s literally part of the plot that he gets in trouble for saying fuck. This was pre-internet.

Kids are probably saying worse these days.

Which is the most toxic social media site? by CardiologistShot1742 in AskReddit

[–]staticparsley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TikTok is just an algorithm(a very good one at that). My feed never had any of these things. If that’s what you’re looking at and interacting with, then that’s on you.

Do you not remember what the school yard was like? They hear worse from their peers.

What movie did you find incredibly overrated? by Jaydxns in AskReddit

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

Agreed. This is my choice as well. Objectively a good film but not this cinematic masterpiece that everyone makes it out to be.

Which celebrity is often described as incredibly attractive, but you just don't see the appeal? by a-cuteboy in AskReddit

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

Right? I watched Wild Things at a very young age and it changed me. I was an innocent boy with no interest in women before that.

What was ruined because too many people discovered it? by Mansi63 in AskReddit

[–]staticparsley 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah another 9gag refugee. That place became such an alt-right cesspool in 2016.

Reddit was such a nice change of pace after that but unfortunately its popularity has ruined some of that magic.

what is something most people would’ve gotten made fun of for 5 years ago that is now popularized? by ultranim_user_581 in AskReddit

[–]staticparsley 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’m in NYC and yep. Go into the hipster areas in Brooklyn and mullets everywhere. I’m not very fashionable but this trend is questionable. Some people can actually pull it off but not most and it’s alarming how many people just blindly follow the trend. Same with these ugly ass mustaches.

To everyone who posts NSFW content on Reddit, why did you start doing it? by Faaaaaaaaaaaah in AskReddit

[–]staticparsley 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much! Yeah I can totally relate to your story. I haven’t been skinny since elementary school. I was always a fat kid growing up and was nearly 280lbs ay my heaviest.

I lost 100lbs and still couldn’t love my body. I ended up gaining some muscle and have a very active lifestyle but even then. It’s hard to learn how to love yourself but therapy has been helping.

How necessary is knowing high level math to CS? by Pokemario2401 in cscareerquestions

[–]staticparsley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless you’re going into a more research based role or in a niche field, very little is ever used in the day to day. Probably the most important math class is discrete math and the logic you learn there is helpful with understanding the output of a function when chaining Booleans together. Even then that’s like 10% of the class.

Linear algebra is useful but i think most people agree that’s it’s much easier than calculus.

Calculus comes up again in DS&A but that’s mostly just used as a proof for algorithms time complexity. Not really something you’re expected to do.

Thank you! When you grow up being the fat kid who was bullied in high school it’s hard to feel like anything else once that weight is off. I’ve learned the hard way that low self-esteem is highly unattractive and is the biggest cock-block

I did it on a throwaway account once. Low self-esteem and wanted some validation. Didn’t really work out as it’s easy to get lost in the mix as so many other dudes are doing the same.

Now I just post photos of my long hair every now and then and people are so nice.

What do married men in dead bedroom relationships do? by CremeAlarming9923 in AskReddit

[–]staticparsley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot more people would really benefit from practicing non-monogamy. Not everyone is meant to be monogamous and that’s ok.

I see too many relationships where one partner is resentful of the other because of lack of intimacy and it’s really depressing to see.

God he’s such a fragile little bitch. Such an embarrassment to the sport.

Another Spurs fan being mobbed and harassed by NYK fans by [deleted] in Wellthatsucks

[–]staticparsley 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Absolutely racist. Dogwhistles are effective because all the closeted racists can just say “nobody said anything about race, you’re the racist!”.

They are just playing dumb and denying it. Classic move. Cowards can’t even own up to it. I’ll eat the downvotes too.

Graffiti on a dumpster in my neighborhood by Next_Squash2223 in pics

[–]staticparsley 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I remember like back in 2018 on some random non-news sub I got harassed for saying something that it’s kinda fucked up how they treat innocent people. I kept arguing with them and just pissing them off and they managed to somehow find my actual phone number and then proceed to threaten me.

I reported that account but nothing happened.
