@RodrickSage At least you learned this lesson. Some people never learn, and continue to add debt upon debt getting new cars every year, all because they think that "I can trade the car I got just few years ago and get a good deal!" Such is the justification of those who want to keep up appearances, all the while never getting rid of their debt.
Whatever your thoughts are on abortion, I have to note that those who are "pro-choice" always have a problem whenever anyone who is pro-life displays the images of aborted babies. They have all sorts of complaints about it, because they know full well that if they have to see the results of the policies they support, they would have to confront the morality of the issue.
These images show that it is not just about "a woman's right to choose."
@Hoss anyone who is not a moron should know that when you pay hundreds/thousands of dollars for any "designer" brands you are not paying for the material and labor, but rather the brand name itself.
You could apply this to a lot of things. Too many people will pay extra just to say that they have [current trendy brand product].
@Aether Democracy: when you are told that you need a government to rule over you because you cannot possibly know enough to make your own decisions, but you somehow know enough to vote on who does.
But if you vote "the wrong way" it will be completely invalidated by means of fraud, lawfare, or other malfeasance. Because the vote is just a farce to keep you from doing anything to actually solve the problem.
@ButtWorldsMan Even if we were to take this woman at her word (a dangerous idea), she operates under the assumption that a breakup would be likely with this guy. The reason for that is because she is frequently in volitile relationships and assumes that is just how it is rather than the result of her choices.
But actually, she just wants to "enjoy her youth" before she "settles down" with a husband. She just wants both things because she does not want to "miss out" on being a slut.
If there is such a thing as the male equivalent of horoscopes, it is this:
@ButtWorldsMan Did the voice acting come from an AI? Because then I could excuse it for being bad. I may not speak Japanese, but I can tell that the voice lines are not well done.
Otherwise, hilarious.
@Zettour @deprecated_ii Yep. That's a problem with both the job market and the dating market. Too many frauds clogging up the system so that nothing can be trusted. Meanwhile honest people get screwed over until they find someone who actually has a realistic mindset for who they can expect to get.
And it is not surprising that the HR departments are filled with the same women who are delusional in both the job market and the dating market.
@PNS women like this are happy to have all the freedom that has been granted to them, but are not willing to accept the responsibilities that go with that freedom.
If it was not this guy she was cheating with, it would have been some other guy. And she would also blame him rather than accept responsibility. I have no pity for her.
>Hogwarts is too white!
Meanwhile, I found that the demographics in the UK in 2001 was 88.5 percent white British. And given the first book was written in 1997, this would mean that the population was probably a slightly higher percentage white. So having just a few confirmed non-white characters in a mostly white school is quite accurate.
It seems someone has been taking Netflix adaptations too seriously when they show the racial makeup of countries in the past.
@MCMLXVIIOTG @deprecated_ii >but a kid who just likes getting the high score can as well
I was this kid for most of school. So I know this mindset exists. Some people also just like learning and schoolwork just because.
Looks like this will be my new home. Warning: I (probably) have Asperger's, so my be prepared for my autism to show through.
I don't think I am a right wing extremist, but I am sure anyone with low testosterone might think otherwise.
