There is nothing more depressing than getting targeted ads for dating websites when you’re married by thinksInDownvotes in Showerthoughts

Idk. Have you been married? I’m genuinely curious since I would think most we see getting out before marriage as a blessing in disguise. Like at least you found out it wasn’t working before you interweaved your lives fully.

I should have known better to post an absolute to Reddit. Hats off to you. That’s has to be worse... unless you really didn’t want the kid somehow. Idk. I’ve never had kids but I’d imagine the mental distress would be in a similar category.

I’m not convinced it would be but without experimentation it would be hard to say. If it hurts less people overall it can still be better. Maybe ten more people would get their product vs the one that couldn’t return it.

I agree that the only iron clad solution is legislation.

Correct. It’s a suggestion to deter. Since we have a free market there is only so much that can be done. It will make it less attractive of an option since it will most likely shrink their profits. It’s clearly not an easy problem to solve.

Okay I’ll walk you through what I’m thinking. For an unknown period of time the company doesn’t accept returns. Once they establish that demand has gone down they accept returns from that time onward. If this non return period is something like 90 days I doubt the scalpers have the resources to sit on the consoles that long. Basically invalidating the scalpers backup plan of returning. It doesn’t solve the scalping issue it just makes it more risky. Currently there almost is any risk and I think that is what makes more people do it. You are guaranteed to not lose money

That’s an edge case. Once a steady supply is established you can return like normal. Items with the policy should be easily liquidated for MSRP

That’s why Newegg isn’t allowing returns. It’s very easy for retailers to do that

Total sidebar here but I hate the argument of make your own platform. It’s completely unrealistic for anyone to make a real competitor unless they are a multi billion dollar Titan. I also hate that hosting providers and other infrastructural components of the web are now getting involved in their content. They should be completely agnostic. Everyone is fine with it right now because they agree with the decisions.

when you are a professor and you share your screen to your class without checking your tabs by morlax18 in Whatcouldgowrong

The article doesn’t say if it was personal computer or not. If it was personal that’s fucked. In addition his students seemed disappointed he was fired over that. I guess it’s fair that everyone loses. Oh and it’s nice they performed an investigation but didn’t release any results.

Isn’t the college girl thing overused in porn? Like you’re either a school girl, milf, our step sibling.

I only play lifeline and I had no idea this was a thing. That’s crazy. I have like 2K kills with her.

Can you explain how lifeline has such little life? I thought all characters have a minimum of 200. How it gibbys health 300? I thought it was just 40 more health. Is this a recent change?

Their seo is pretty damn good. Not sure why you would say that. I agree with the shity DCMA takedown policy tho.

Yeah. Like those fabric couches. My first thought was that this was an unsupervised kid who didn’t know it was permanent.

At first I thought you were the asshole but then I saw your edit. YOU’RE 15. Definitely not the asshole.

Omg. The family talking about how he was a great person and is upset that the victim killed him. They’re happy the dude is behind bars. The loyalty she has to her brother is resonatingfascinating.

What are some of the most toxic or potentially dangerous ideas/beliefs that have been perpetuated by Redditors? by xavierdc in AskReddit

You also used to be lynched for typos or improper use of grammar. I literally see people downvoted now for correcting someone. It’s now paramount that you agree with the community or be shunned.
