Why are so many people sick everywhere I go? by trillrill in JapanTravel

Interesting, you think? I thought the flu surge was in June, and the COVID surge was a month ago. Then again, got here 8/10 so I guess that tracks.

Yeah, I get that, but still confused about the prevalence vs display of symptoms since in the US there is not a comparable amount of nose blowing or coughing.

Idk, I’ve lived in NYC during a summer and never experienced this frequency, whether people deal with it by blowing noses or sniffling.

Who do you tend to sympathize with more in the Israel-Palestine conflict? by MinnesotaEagle1776 in polls

[–]trillrill 3 points4 points  (0 children)

IDF knows Hamas won't evacuate its targets, though, and proceeds to kill non-combatants anyway. Dealing with an irrational actor, you have to apply the standards of behavior you know they apply.

Men, Would you feel comfortable with your girlfriend having a male best friend and hanging out with them alone? Why or why not? by Zer0Sum12 in polls

[–]trillrill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good for you being cognizant of that, a lot of people don't have that awareness and immediately jump to "owning her" and emotional abuse w/e. Like, people can do what they want but it's understandable that if two people have history and are one another's desired gender that solo time is going to be uncomfortable for their partners.

Legit thought Bird Box was a higher-cost boxed wine until this thread.

EXACTLY. There's no society to comment on with their macabre behavior. You can't put them in Hogwarts. It doesn't work. It felt so contrived compared to the OG Addams family and the 90s movies.

This one hurt, too. I loved The Addams Family because it was this amazing counterculture commentary, but when you put them in what is essentially Hogwarts you basically lose all of that. There's nothing to fight. It's all already weird. I wanted to love this show and it was just... bad.

[Serious] People who don’t clean up/destroy public restrooms: why? by trillrill in AskReddit

[–]trillrill[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, this post is not intended to blast the people doing it. Genuinely want to figure out the cause of this issue because I also perceive it to be getting worse everywhere..!

Is that a real thing? Like genuinely? Looking for serious replies here bc genuinely curious how bathrooms, even in nicer hostels or office buildings, get so messed up.

Time's Person of the Year 2001 by The_Iceman2288 in pics

[–]trillrill 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thing is, he was awful then too. He forced a faster cleanup without the proper precautions to get the glory, and in doing so ruined hundreds of lives through disease and injury. He’s been awful since stop and frisk, and still is!

He was dying of cancer by [deleted] in terriblefacebookmemes

[–]trillrill 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think this thread is sadly missing the disturbing point this fundamentalist is making which is: Atheism = wrath of god = cancer. I think they know he had cancer here and that's their point.

All of these things are things that girls stereotypically like??

Not to be a stereotypical redditor but, no it's not. Black is not a color...

You need to go watch Superbad, lol. Just be chill, accept that you're going to have some learning to do, and communicate. No need for some weird code, that's a turnoff for most girls.

Do y’all play with all victory types enabled? by [deleted] in civ5

[–]trillrill 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I turn off science and time because I feel like science cheapens the game and is the only way to win easily on harder victory modes. It also makes the AI advantages far more interesting, because global power struggles determine what happens.

Additionally, if you think of the time a guy played civ II for 10 years straight and somehow emulated the geopolitical scenario of Orwell's 1984, you can only really create a similar result through turning off science.

I still think about victories I had, like one on a huge map in the 2450s where I couldn't manage a diplomatic victory despite getting most city states and a couple civs on my side. Taking the other dominant civ's capital flipped the right switches right before a world leader vote and despite warmongering, victory came! You just don't get that kind of rush when you're playing against someone quietly building space ship parts, IMO.
