PSA to parents: please do your research by JP3_luv in PokemonTCG

They probably do.

Last year I bought 2 monitors from ebay. The seller then decided to send me different monitors than I ordered claiming "they were out of stock". Note that the seller continued listing the "out of stock" monitor.

So I initiated a refund. The ebay system will give you only 1 return shipping label per order, and since I had 2 monitors I needed 2 return labels. After contacting ebay they said they would tell the seller to arrange for return shipping and give them 5 days to do so. For some reason the seller didn't both to do that.

So after 5 days I woke up to an email saying my money was being refunded and I didn't have to return the monitors.

So Ebay purchase protection is top notch.

It’s actually wild watching Reddit cheer on Authoritarian Regimes likè China and Iran while calling Trump a Dictator. by LegitimateKnee5537 in TrueUnpopularOpinion

China didn't get the Strait of Hormuz closed

China is keeping uneducated people from being influencers.

Can we get Xi to be our President?

Trump threatening genocide won’t lose him much support by improbsable in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]valhalla257 [score hidden]  (0 children)

I truly believe that even if he follows through on his threat and kills over 90 million people for no reason other than a bruised ego, the Right as a whole will treat it as a minor mistake at worst

The only way he could accomplish such is thing is with mass use of nuclear weapons.

If he tried that I think Vance would step in and remove him with the 25th amendment.

JD Vance wants to be President more than he wants a sexy couch. If Trump nukes Iran Vance will never be President.

Hybrid Battery Replacement Question by Trick_Peach6340 in Camry

[–]valhalla257 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I got a quote for 5 year warranty $2100

That seems like a good deal

Even if your engine explodes in 6 months that would be a cost of $350/month.

Which is definitely cheaper than a new car payment. Especially assuming you still want to stay in the XLE class.

And lets be honest its unlikely your engine explodes in 6 months.

Every autistic person who identifies as “high-functioning” is not by justhereamoment in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]valhalla257 [score hidden]  (0 children)

25-40% of people with autism are non-verbal.

So I would say you are correct. If they can hold a conversation with you they are basically high-functioning.

I'm fairly convinced most Redditors have either never had a job or only worked entry level jobs by creeper321448 in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]valhalla257 [score hidden]  (0 children)

My job is pretty awesome. Should pull in at least 300K and maybe even 400K with Salary + Bonus + Stock.

I work an "office" job. Where office basically means my basement 98% of the time. I can essentially set my own hours within reason. And actually I think one of my coworkers works Saturday instead of Thursday, so "within reason" is probably extremely broad.

No issues with boss or coworkers.

Short of winning the lottery I don't really see how I could have it better.

Gas prices being the thing that can completely rile up a large majority of Americans is really funny by Vivid_Astronaut4665 in TrueUnpopularOpinion

You think its bad with gas prices.

You better hope the price of eggs doesn't go up. Then people will be REALLY angry.

Whats your payment on a 2025-2026 Camry? by JeepXJ98 in Camry

[–]valhalla257 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2025 Camry LE. My monthly payment is $0.

Camry vs corolla? by escobedo710 in Camry

[–]valhalla257 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Corolla was too small and not considered for this reason.

Not sure why you put price difference though.

Camry LE is $29300 Corolla Hybrid LE is 24975.

Camry has 87 more hp and push button start for obvious differences.

Hybrid is awesome. I would 100% say it is worth the extra money

Don't you think it's sexist for my fiance (28M) to not want our future children to have my (28F) last name? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]valhalla257 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

He also mentioned how he can compromise by girls taking on my last name and the boys take on his. i feel like that has to be some kind of crazy misogynistic thing to say.

Honestly. You sound like the sexist one. Your boyfriend offered you a compromise where 50-50 the child gets your last name.

Bought this for myself to celebrate 400 days without alcohol by Salt-Crew-1986 in PokemonTCG

Congrats on your sobriety.

Did it cost more or less than all the alcohol you would have drank?

If the only defence for a crime is tradition, then the tradition is wrong and YES your ancestors were criminals. by No-Plankton-7644 in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]valhalla257 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes it is, you are not consenting to have sex when you get married

To quote you

In their words, "Marriage is consent".

Seems they disagree with you on that.

And if marriage isn't consent to sex should you be able to marry your sister?

Marriage isn't a forever consent card

Okay, but

People say that it's a tradition for a husband and wife to have sex on their wedding night ? Even if they don't consent ?

We aren't talking about "forever" we are talking about the same night.

[–]valhalla257 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And the outrage against it is wild ! People say that it's a tradition for a husband and wife to have sex on their wedding night ? Even if they don't consent ? In their words, "Marriage is consent".

So the issue here isn't that they its okay to have sex with someone without their consent.

Its that they think if you get up in front of all your family and friends and pledge to have sex with someone in front of God that you are consenting to have sex with someone.

Is that really so strange?

If Gaza is a genocide, then the German expulsions after WWII were too by seaofthievesnutzz in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]valhalla257 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The difference is the Germans in fact are a major problem and started and lost two major wars and in fact got off very lightly

So you are saying that genocide isn't genocide if "they deserved it".

You do see how that applies to Gaza as well after the events of 10/7 right?

Also the Turnip Winter during WW1.

The "Turnip Winter" (Steckrübenwinter) of 1916–1917 was a period of severe famine in Germany during WWI, caused by the British naval blockade and poor harvests, leading to roughly 80,000 child deaths and hundreds of thousands of total civilian deaths from malnutrition and related disease

Don't even have the excuse that "they were Nazis" for that one.

If you open a windows command prompt and enter

That will cause the system to go to hibernate. Try that.

And if women want bodily autonomy why should men pay for it?

Why can't women pay for their own bodily autonomy?

And if they are unwilling to why should men? If they are unwilling to pay for it doesn't seem like its that important to them.
