I’ve noticed a drop in accuracy as well. I’ve actually started using the finger-drag method to type since it seems to be more accurate.

I’m pretty sure no Elizabethan ever said, “I’m so gay for thee,” as an expression of happiness or support. Your phrasing is therefore pretty locked in as “your parents want the gay incest with you,” so maybe you owe OP an apology?

Just sayin’.

I think people get these stickers for free when they purchase an Apple product, but don’t know where to put it, so they wind up putting it on their car.

This is really Fringe humor.

Stupid-ass copium, like all religion.

Beer. There’s something about it that seems to lube my intestines and makes everything else come out smoother.

Remind yourself that that belief is based on your very limited experience of history. Things get worse and better over the course of time. Your only true grief may be that you may not live to see the tide change. But that’s very different from thinking all is doomed.

I don’t see how tyranny is to blame. The problem is that Ticket Master has been allowed to create a monopoly on ticket sales and is selling to retailers even though it itself is a retailer, which is an anti-consumer practice. A tyrannical government isn’t the problem here; it’s simply a company getting away with shit current laws clearly forbid. Hence, capitalistic actions being unrestrained by effective, government-enforced laws. That’s capitalism allowed to run rampant, which is a very common problem in American society. The problem isn’t capitalism per se, but capitalism unrestrained by existing laws that are designed to keep it in check.

Unregulated capitalism. Specifically, unenforced monopoly laws, which the U.S. has been terrible at.

Adults are just large five-year-olds.

I think it really depends on your financial position. If you have the financial means to make your kids’ lives easier, especially if that means paying for things that will allow them to provide better for themselves and their children later on, I would say that’s a good/kind thing to do. However, if you’re just paying for them to live nice lives at the cost of them learning how to provide for themselves, I would say you’re actually doing them a disservice.

If you don’t have the financial means to provide for them to further extent, I would say it’s entirely reasonable to say, “I got you as far as I could, now you have to take responsibility for your own life as best you can, because I have myself to look after.”

I think the complex parts of the issue actually come up when parents retire and can’t provide for themselves anymore. To what extent are children beholden to their parents to provide for themselves anymore in their senior years? I do think it’s moral for children to care for their parents this way, but if your children aren’t willing to do so, I would certainly ask how you didn’t foster a strong enough relationship with them that they feel so little compassion. Plenty of parents out there provide for their children financially but neglect the actual relationship, such that their children don’t actually care that much about them as adults and don’t feel the need to care for them in their old age.

There a lot more that could be said about this but I think this post is long enough.

Not a woman either but I would think that since pickles don’t burn the inside of your mouth, they wouldn’t burn the inside of a vagina.

Can we please hear from a woman who’s stuck a pickle in her vag? We have a serious scientific inquiry that needs answers.

In the comics, Thanos is in love with Lady Death (sometimes called Mistress Death) who is a personification of death. Thing is, she doesn’t return his affections. So, he kills half the universe as a way to try to win said affections. I think the writers for the MCU probably felt that was a little too hokey to fly with modern/mainstream audiences.

The short answer is that they had to come up with something more palatable to a movie audience than “I’m evil and have a crush on the literal Lady of Death.”

It’s still a great source of information. I don’t mind visiting the site if it pops up in one my Google searches.

Around $60k and I live in a very expensive city. I live paycheck-to-paycheck, but I’m also a trust funder, so I chose this career knowing I didn’t have to worry about retirement. Very different situation from most. I don’t feel rich, but I certainly don’t feel poor. I feel comfortable knowing I can afford whatever I need and I don’t want much more than that. I have to mind my spending a little bit but if I ever want to splurge, I can.

This is your opportunity to discontinue a barbaric practice that was done to you for stupid reasons.

The only thing that is making this a difficult ethical choice for you is the culture you were brought up in. If you were born in most other places, this issue wouldn’t even provoke serious thought in your brain, just astonishment, laughter, and ridicule for anyone who practiced it.

This isn’t a hard choice. Do the right thing.

Vidya games!

Specifically, any games requiring “twitch” reflexes. I love ‘em, but I do not have the genetic material to master them.

Oh, yeah, I’ve heard that line plenty of times. I agree, it’s just a convoluted argument to mask anti-White racism. Funnily enough, I’ve seen plenty of White people say it. Sad.
