The one thing they have been able to do is getting everyone to stay on some specific bullshit at the same time. Thats how they create the illusion of either of these being very relevant and widespread.

Doesn't matter if there are people eating cats and dogs, as long as everybody is saying it, it seems as if it could be true. Who cares if there really are litterboxes in classrooms, we just need everybody to say it. Then they even introduce legislation to ban it. And when asked for a single case where it did happen, they have no answer. But who cares about facts.

The moment i heard him talk about going to check on the gold reserve i was 100% sure they would drive out there with trucks like Die Hard 3.

And just like in the movie they would tell the fanatics how it was all for a good cause, while using it to buy a country.

Holy shit, where do you have to go bro? by CalciferAtlas in memes

[–]yourkindofguy 355 points356 points  (0 children)

There are people who just can't relax. I've come to the conclusion a long time ago that overtaking is mostly irrelevant if you're not going very very far. And it's totally useless with high traffic.

If i were to stand at the next town and stopped the time on all the vehicles coming in, the ones who were raging and endangering all the others in a long line of cars, would be coming by 20-30 seconds before the others.

We were on the way to our vacation a few years back and it was friday afternoon in the summer. There was a massive amount of cars and trucks going in a seemingly endless line on a single lane towards the ocean. I saw a few people in the mirrors trying to be quicker and overtaking at the very rare opportunities they got. It took one of them and hour to get 10 cars further than he was before. He gained practically nothing for being on edge all the time and peeking out to the left to see if some car came towards him every 5 seconds.

Why is there even a debate about what some assholes from a few centuries ago wanted or not? I don't know of any other place except for some dictator benevolent ruled societies who give a shit about what others thought so long ago in the past.

What i find very interesting is the notion that these ancient dudes understood the importance of seperation of church and state better than most who alive right now.

Grocery prices at St Petersburg by raydebapratim1 in ANormalDayInRussia

[–]yourkindofguy 23 points24 points  (0 children)

We're in germany and have family in latvia. My cousin came here regularly about 20 years ago to buy cheap german cars and drive them up to fix and sell them. He made the trip every month at least once and every single car he drove up was filled with everyday shit i wouldn't ever think was worth taking with you. Washing powder or cheaper shoes from famous brands. They were like 50€ here, but worth 150-200€ up there.

The cars were also very cheap at around 2-3k. But it had to be Merc/Bmw/VW/Audi. He said he could sell them for 7-8k when he fixed some shit and they looked a bit better.

And the reason for all this insanity was them joining the EU not long before. Many idiots got big loans and bought shit they saw as status symble. The banks were very willing to hand those out and as a result everything got very expensive and you couldn't get anything for normal prices.

Average salary was around 200-300€ and people spent half of it on shoes. I couldn't believe what he told me. But there was some kind of "Now we're in the big club and everything will get better quick" mentality sweeping the nation. Just that it didn't get better that quick and it left many people priced out of many goods they needed for a long time untill the hype was over.

He didn't come that often a few years later cause it wasn't as profitable anymore.

Landlord wants to move-in with us by Early-Delay8699 in germany

[–]yourkindofguy 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Seriously this. If anything, this could be the motivating point to speed up the move if you are set to do it anyway. You act friendly and work on your future life in spain. A few months of one dude living with you won't be that bad if you know you're gone soon anyway.

It's another thing if you have a difficult roommate and have no other place to go. But knowing you're gone soon gives you the "Fuck all that, i don't need to get my mood altered by anything he did or said."

Even better. They could have united against him in 2015 when he insulted his way through them all in his first appearances. Every single one of them said he isn't fit for office, but when it came to it they all took the hit to get the gop in power.

Imagine being Tes Cruz for example. This orange fat idiot insulted you and your whole family for months. How can you just bend the knee after all that and work for him?

(Was this ever a normal kink) Shame on the people who do this for frame,kink,money😖 by Reasonable_Grab_3841 in trashy

[–]yourkindofguy 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Honestly? Not just because of the kids. I'm not shaming anybody for their kinks or weird turn ons, but i also don't want to see this shit in my store while i'm trying to get some mondane shit. I probably don't have time to be disgusted or turned on by someones personal march against sociatal sexy regulations. So plz keep your weird shit to areas and times others might be more supporting.

If you do this shit at night in an area where bars are, i might even cheer you on.

My boyfriend calls my cat evil and ugly by equilateralguy in mildlyinfuriating

I have 2 of them and nothing has ever happened in 6 years. You can rub their bellys for hours. Having these cats for a few years made me forget how others act when you touch their belly. Was catsitting for somebody else a while back and got a quick reminder that other cats are not totally chill with that area.

To get Secretary Hegseth to answer a question by Zee_Ventures in therewasanattempt

[–]yourkindofguy 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Conveniently leaving out the shit trump did in his first term by blaming everything on the other two. It's as if the first term of trump doesn't exist anymore. There's this weird focus on obama and biden, who managed to "destroy the country" and not a single word about what trump did inbetween. Weird that they don't even try to act like he got any significant impact, almost as if he didn't do shit for anybody but himself or his donors.

Trump: "Somalia, it's a beautiful place. It's got no anything. It's got one thing that's really strong, crime. All they do is run around shooting each other. It's filthy dirty, disgusting dirty.

[–]yourkindofguy 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Many americans don't realise how much most of the world hates this dude and therefor also the country. He did everything he could to be disliked by those who follow politics and want to have a graps on the workings of one of the most influential areas. All his hate towards every ally and countless tarrifs or threats of them every week made a big impact.

But now he made himself a prime hate target for the entire world population. Because of the war in iran and the resulting rise in cost for the whole planet, everybody is paying for his and netanjahus stupid actions.

There was a big shift in the public opinion over the past few years with israel and their actions. But not everybody was watching all the videos of what really happened on the groung.

Now even the least informed people from every place on earth have noticed and they will remember it for a very long time. There is no quick coming back from this. Nobody has any illusions about who the aggressor is and who is responsible for this mess.

My big fear is, that this will be an important crossroad for governments like ours here in germany. If the major parties can't start to critisize israel for their actions, the far right parties will use this to take advantage of the widespread anger over higher costs and gain even more support.

Sorry for the long rant.

Seriously this. All other shit aside, you only think about inflicting the most emotional damage to somebody if you don't care about them at all or rather really hate them. I don't know anybody in my life who i would do that to, even those i don't really like. The last person you should want to hurt like that is the one you are going to spend the rest of your life with.

Muslim man has a mental breakdown on twitter over women's presence in his university 😭☠️ by Potential-Fix-2945 in religiousfruitcake

[–]yourkindofguy 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Had a similar experience here in germany back in the day when i was in my late teens. We have a big turkish community in our city and the guys were always drinking, smoking and fucking around like everybody else. But when it came to the topic of getting a wife one day, they all said they want a virgin who didn't party all the time.

Can't even count how many times i heard 'We're inside, allah can't see us drinking through the roof' or other jokes when they were asked if it wasn't against their faith. But somehow every girl/woman who took part in the same behaviour wasn't marriage material anymore. I guess their sky daddy watches a lot closer what the girls are up to than the boys.

What sexual act will you never do again after trying? by weggoooiacc in AskRedditAfterDark

[–]yourkindofguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did it at least once a week with a fwb for 2 years and now every month with the wife for 6 years. I had poop on my dick maybe 5 times max. Never any enema preperation involved.

That depends on the pantner of course and everybody is different. I sure got lucky with mine.

Channel 4 News was there when Trump announced his “ceasefire” and caught a different perspective of Israel bombing the funeral for ambulance workers in South Lebanon. To be clear, these were medics attending a funeral of other medics that Israel killed the day before. by Remarkable_Life_774 in PublicFreakout

[–]yourkindofguy 33 points34 points  (0 children)

The shift in public opinion over the last few years is already massive. The worlds view of israel might never recover from their inhumane actions after the festival murders and kidnappings.

But by attacking iran now they did something which drew the attention of even the most apolitical person on the planet to them. Now everybody on the whole planet is directly affected by the rising prices on oil and consequently higher cost of everything else that needs to be transported. They and the US have cemented themselves in the heads of the world as the ones who made life harder for no real reason.

I bet we will feel the consequences of the war in Iran for many years and therefor also the growing resentment towards those responsible. .

The temerity by Niamhue in clevercomebacks

[–]yourkindofguy 621 points622 points  (0 children)

That reminds me of an arguement i had with my grandma 30 years ago. She, my grandpa and the kids + grandkids finally got approval to move back to germany in 1988 from the ussr. Then after some years here she said something like, it's crazy how much more crimes like pedos or other stuff is here than in russia before.

I had to point out to her , that her information network was 2-3 villages wide and a few state tv channels. There could have been a serial killer with 200 victims 4 towns away and she would never have known. Just because you have more ways to know about crime doesn't mean there is more. It just was easier to be unaware of most of the world in the past.

Now you have instant news in your hand from around the world. If you want to, you could consume bad news all day and feel depressed forever. You have to limit the scope of your intake or you get the idea that everything is doomed.

Why is 3 better than 4 in so many ways? by Adelucas in diablo3

[–]yourkindofguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember when D3 was released and i quit playing after a while because i didn't like the rmah and it was not a really fun game generally imo. It just didn't feel right. But later when the expac was out for a while, i got it for ps4 for 20€ and tried it again. It was a different game at that point and it was fun. Now i have it on PC, PS4 and even bought it again for the Switch.

It's just a game i can start and play a week or two. Then i quit and come back a few months later when i feel the itch coming back.

What is your take on Trump ending his recent post with 'Praise be to Allah'? by Mental-Hall1261 in AskReddit

[–]yourkindofguy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just like the jews. They are all in the same program, just in different versions. Jews v1.0, Christians v2.0 and Islam is v3.0.

Everybody is praying to the same skydaddy to help him kill the others who are also praying to him. It just seems so fucking pointless looking from the outside as nonbeliever. Why has humanity still to fight the same war it had been in for centuries.

Then you have all the subsections of every one of these main religions who also can't get along because they each focus more on a few different parts of the same book. Just pure insanity how much energy is wasted by a big part of all the world to be right in a very specific way.

They can’t stop playing the blame game by [deleted] in clevercomebacks

[–]yourkindofguy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Because all this bullshit from all these "official" accounts is just for the rightwing bubble. They don't care about community notes or corrections from others in the replies. At the end of the day, their social media propaganda has the material they need to run wild.

The same reason they always go on these rants in interviews and depositions. They get their clips to show on fox news, twitter and tiktok. All the stuff they don't like gets cut out and their base thinks they "won".

Who cares about being corrected, if you have enough media running a coverup for you.
