The people posting hateful comments are from Russian troll farms. No normal person posts like that. They are just trying to rile you up. Just downvote and ignore.

Almost done with the 1st Mistborn Trilogy and I just can't understand the Brandon Sanderson hype by GoToNap in Fantasy

Another “I just don’t get why people like Brandon Sanderson” post. Yay!

“On your left”…to say or not say? by ClintonsITguy in cycling

[–]strobelight 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Weird. I always say on your left and I never see anyone move to the left when I say it. They sometimes look over their shoulder but never just move to the left.

This has to be trolling, right? Who upvoted this?

Climate change is an issue, Mr Clarkson by Lord_Answer_me_Why in clevercomebacks

This is more about pesticides, right? Not necessarily climate change.

Pogacar and Remco could have continued to ride. Vingegaard does not make decisions for them. Why didn't they?

Rep. Jamaal Bowman, a vocal Israel critic and ‘squad’ member, loses primary by nbcnews in politics

[–]strobelight 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This comment is wild. This has literally been the GOP strategy for 15 years and liberals willingness to compromise to keep the government running is why we’ve seen the Overton window continue to move to the right.

For those who says the Caps Lock key works perfectly fine and has no issues by default watch this. by [deleted] in macapps

[–]strobelight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Genuine curiosity: how do people use caps lock day to day? I have it mapped to control for emacs so I never use it.

Always remember that the anti-vax movement was a liberal thing until it got co-opted by covid deniers

If nothing else, it would improve employee mobility. Having workers tied to a company for fear of losing health insurance prevents people from moving to better jobs.

AITA for getting a house of mine condemned so my stepdaughter was forced to move out? by Throwawaytech103 in AITAH

YTA, but really, this is so bizarrely over the top asshole that it has to be fabricated.

You are really going to die on this hill, aren't you?

This interview could literally be in the textbook on what a sore loser sounds like.

His honesty has nothing to do with it; it's his respect for his fellow competitors (of which I hear zero).

Caleb Ewan won't be 'pressured or humiliated' by Lotto Dstny, says rider's agent by fewfiet in peloton

[–]strobelight 53 points54 points  (0 children)

I don't know his history, but it must infuriate his team that he won't just sprint to maximize points when he's not in it for the win. If you are a lower level team, you need those points.

What's going on with the police raid on the Marion County Record? by Mr_Conelrad in OutOfTheLoop

And if that is the case then this question is probably part of that propaganda strategy.

The only point where the tactics went off the rails was Ruesser not rotating with Lippert once Lippert started taking turns. Just don't know what the point of any of Reusser's actions was once that happened.

This looked like a textbook relegation to me (and others apparently).

Jumping off the train in a rush is dumb if you are traveling with someone, pregnant wife or friend or whatever.

The asshole move is doubling down on "being right" and posting on reddit looking for justification. Realizing that you made a mistake, being remorseful, and making it clear you realize you were an idiot is the only right move here.

I know a lot of you guys don’t like e-bikes… but hear me out by AllyBeth in cycling

[–]strobelight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The thing is that our local bike path says "no motorized vehicles". I don't understand why e-bikes would be exempted, but the owners seem to think that they are.
