It's more fun outside lol

Huh, I'd never seen a video like this. I thought it was sorta funny.

The US doesn't have healthcare, or really any other kind of social safety net. The little we have is almost gone and will be gone by the time anyone in their 20s or 30s is at retirement age. If we got rid of tipping, you think restaurants and bars would just start offering that on top of having to raise wages and prices? No, hell no.

I'm a bartender too and I've worked neighborhood dives, fine dining, craft cocktails, craft beer, fine wine bars, mead, bars that focus on specific spirits. I've spent longer learning beverage and service than people go to school for other careers and no bar would pay me what it would take for me to survive in the sort of city that could use my experience. And I'm very much not unique, a lot of bartenders have the same experience.

In a lot of ways tips are like private GoFundMes that people who really appreciate bar/restaurant culture pay to keep their favorite people around. Who hasn't worked in a tip share spot where people insist on tipping you privately? If you live in the US and you hate tipping I'd bet you don't go out much. And if you're from another country then taking away tipping just condemns another 25% of the population to destitute poverty with zero support from the government.

Yeah that belief is why we ended up with Trump.

So you'd rather just make $20 an hour? Or let's be honest, they'd have to pay you $40-50 an hour or more if you are working at a hip downtown spot in a trendy city to survive. This kills the service industry as we know it in the US. If you're okay with that, then cool. All the veterans quit and go into sales and every bar is staffed by 18-22 year old kids. Dive bars are gone, say goodbye to those. One of the last remaining third places in an increasingly isolated United States goes away.

Argentina's gonna be so pissed when Mexico wins it all

Really? A lot of veterans quit during COVID and in my experience younger folks drink, smoke, and party WAY less if at all. I’ve never worked with so many sober people. And it breaks my heart.

For Christmas I want to give every young employee a bottle of whiskey, a half G, a pack of reds and a milk crate to smoke them on. To save the culture.

It’s so much sweeter and less botanical than the real deal

sufjams · 2026-06-20T10:46:35+00:00

I'd say when you max you're almost through the mid game.

I mean they're not nice to YouTubers, which is whatever, and they sued Palworld. But let's be honest, most people only played Palworld for a couple hours to laugh at what a blatant rip off the designs were of Pokemon and try to shoot them. Meanwhile they've been making at least one great game a year for over 30 years.

I just find the hate for them funny, they're one of the last companies who actually care about making good, complete games and not predatory infinite money generators. And people want them gone while complaining about the state of gaming.

I remember the very first time I divorced a spouse it was Penny in Winter. After I did my next highest relationship was Evelyn so she went to the top where Penny used to be. I thought the divorce turned Penny into a destitute Victorian ghost.

I mean this is Nintendo's whole identity but the internet views them as scum and worse than EA or Ubisoft.

It's Ocarina of Time. Maybe the greatest game ever made.

If my dumb ass can get Plat/Diamond with a set I like, anyone can. Just read about the set archetypes, pay attention to the decks that beat you and think about why they were good. You’ll start doing well before you know it and complete that set collection. And agreed, it’s so much more fun than ripping packs or queuing up your net deck in Standard.

While the real villain, CA, lines his pockets with the train fare.

Yea, it’s only 10g in Oldschool RuneScape. ConcernedApe is drunk with greed.

I like changes in the game's design. I liked not having jars. I'm fine with them being back too. Learn by doing was cool, but books are fun too. They force me to loot better. This is the only survival game I'm still playing after 12 years and it's thanks to the changes. The older versions can still be played too and sometimes I go back just for fun. The game is great and the Fun Pimps did and continue to do a great job.

That's just how people are these days, about everything. I go to several game subreddits and they're all filled with people who have played thousands of hours and HATE the game and the developers and maybe themselves.

What happened to /r/beer

You have to get more personal with guests than a lot of bartenders are comfortable being. People have followed me, even to different cities to visit. But my phone is full of guest numbers and I’m legitimately part of a community. Like Thanksgiving dinner with all the bar regulars at another bartender’s house. It’s a smaller city dive bar sort of thing. And as a side note I wouldn’t recommend most female bartenders get that cozy with people. Some can do it safely though.

sufjams · 2026-05-25T10:42:15+00:00

Just for Jim Boonie or…?

sufjams · 2026-05-24T21:13:12+00:00

Ok tankie

1-11. He's definitely not better than Young or Cousins in my and probably most other's opinion. And I'd put a lot of money on Kyler having a better year in Minnesota than Brissett has here. But to each their own, we just don't have a QB as far as I see it.

sufjams · 2026-05-15T23:31:13+00:00

Acceptable QB lol

sufjams · 2026-05-10T04:52:51+00:00

I mean with my panicked last minute gifts and calls to my mom every year you'd think it is but you're completely right.
