The trick is to live somewhere without ghettos or ghetto people so none of the fast food places are staffed by those people. Theres a Burger King in a town not too far from me. They appear to have all five black residents of the state working there. Its bizarre. Needless to say its not a...

Now can you explain to the class, in what way does the "everyone wants to fuck blacks" fit your definition? Its fucking 2023 and there are still people that think copy pasting from an online dictionary is a valid form of discourse Did you know that not every reply on an online forum has to be...

I was pretty clear, but I've learned that sometimes you can't possibly be clear enough. I didnt find it to be racist in the sense of "blaming the white man". This was basically a single line from the daughter who was a race baiter from her first moment on the show, so it didnt come across as...

Purely from a food perspective Palums right. The CFA chicken sandwich is fine, there is absolutely nothing wrong with it. But just like In & Out, its wildly overhyped and has a boring ass menu. Its a pretty much perfect analogy. CFA is to chicken sandwiches exactly as In & Out is to burgers...

Painting this as anti white is silly, looking to be offended. It was literally a single line from a single character, and she was an annoying bitch from her first appearance on screen, and consistently had a chip on her shoulder about race. One of the themes here was actually reasonably well...

Only 2 episodes in. If S1 had started like this I doubt I'd have bothered finishing it. "Hey guys, lets explore the multiverse by telling stories about what if someone you don't give a shit about and barely remember, did something you don't give a shit about, instead of someone else you barely...

First couple seasons were great, but the entire time its been a story about replacing the old white male NASA with the more female and brown government + private industry space force. It hasnt been subtle at all about this theme. Viewed this way, its entirely reasonable that we're seeing a...

This is fascinating. The guys banned from all but this little corner, what does he do? Instead of taking the timeout and going elsewhere, he stands in this little corner still stamping his feet and insisting what he read in his favorite history book is correct? Its quite a window on the human...

Yeah we're talking about different contexts. When you brought up standardized testing I went straight to SAT / GRE / etc. I'm only defending it in those contexts. In the classroom, absolutely I'm in favor of more essays and less multiple choice.

I don't disagree at all, essay questions are a far better way to judge the student's grasp of the subject than multiple choice. (oral exams are even better) The problem is that its nearly impossible to grade written essays in a truly objective and reproducible manner. I've never seen a program...

despite being the most commonly cooked cut of chicken, boneless skinless breasts are also one of the cuts that most often turns out badly. By which I mean, if you didnt do it perfectly youre in good company. I'm on board with all the suggestions so far. Pound it. Bread it. Butterfly it. Slow...

A reference that may help in casting his replacement This is Kang

Carefully preparing homemade food for an animal that eagerly eats any literal feces that it finds... thats next level. I'm not even making fun of you. Theres something special about that. Caring so much for a pet even though the object of your affection doesnt give a shit and would be just as...

The second it can produce a tweet on its own, and someone can screenshot the tweet. This isnt a snarky smartass comment. Its the precise answer to your question.

Every job thats purely paperwork & minor logistics like this is gonna be replaced by LLMs and other robots and its gonna be hilarious. If the only reason your job exists is to facilitate paperwork, your job doesnt deserve to exist and I can't wait til that day arrives.

That was an afterthought, but you sure loved to jump on it like it was the main argument. We can stick with civil wars in the modern era if you like. Out of the last lets say 5-10 civil wars that have happened on planet earth, how many of them saw a foreign country invading in response? I...

The proposition was not that Europe would support one side or the other financially. The proposition was a boots on the ground invasion of American would definitely 100% happen in the event of a civil war. The best I'm getting in response is "ok its not something that happens normally but this...

I guess thats it, now that you mention it WTF why isnt it on a chopping block. I also think the axe handle is shorter than normal. Its just weird to watch, its like he's bowing to the wood after each swing. Use your arms bro, its not yoga

You keep insisting on this. Shall I assume that if we look up lets say, the last half a dozen or so civil wars that happened worldwide, would we find that in each case "their enemies immediately invaded?" I don't feel like playing wikipedia tag, but I'm pretty sure thats not the case. If we...

Thats an interesting idea. I split a lot of wood, I'm gonna have to try that. With that said, WTF is wrong with the dude in the video? He bends over on each chop like he's made out of spaghetti. Dudes gonna destroy his back. But also, WTF why? Is the axe too short for a normal chopping motion...

IMO you've got to be far enough away from the nearest city that *finding* you is an issue. Keep in mind they're not gonna have maps on their iPhones. If you're on a main road within an hour of a city you're in for some unpleasant visitors in the no-internet apocalypse. If you're on some dirt...

This is all true. But its about the transition. I think rural people currently doing small scale farming are gonna have a waaay easier transition to subsistence living, and a better probability of success, than the dude in the 14th floor apartment 2 blocks away from the place where the first...

Why do ‘gate lice’ line up early for a flight? Psychologists explain. https://www.msn.com/en-us/travel/news/why-do-gate-lice-line-up-early-for-a-flight-psychologists-explain The entire problem exists only because some passengers are assholes and all airlines allow it. You only get the overhead...

Fuck Gophers. Little pieces of shit. I shot a couple this summer but apparently this just stimulated them to fuck more, cause now I swear we've got twice as many. Scientists need to stop working on this deextinction bullshit and focus on extinction. Fuck gophers, they need to not exist...

Look, if nepotism is the only way we get to cast white actors for white characters, I'm 100% ok with it

200 acres and no well? I know what my first priority would be. Not to trivialize the time or expense of drilling a well. But its water.

Hell, they're paying extra to have that thing delivered.

Its 2023 and we still have autists who complain about "threads getting derailed". Particularly on a forum that has taken the odd and perplexing moderating decision that all political talk gets crammed into a single 80 billion page long thread, all race talk into another 80 billion page long...

I dont disagree with you in this case about what should be. I'm just pointing out the compelling interest of the universities themselves. You didnt address my point, that all businesses want to sell more and more of their product each year. Universities are no different and I don't see how they...

None of your examples are even close to the same thing. You can order your fast food by speaking out loud and handing the dude your money. You chose to instead download some special software onto your mobile device and give it access to all your personal info, for a $0.50 coupon off some...

This is absolutely true and its one of the top 3 problems with the modern educational system. It will also never change. Try telling any business it needs to sell its product to fewer people next year, and even fewer the year after that.

I specifically took five English Lit type classes (don't recall their exact titles) because they counted toward whatever bullshit category I needed to fill, and I find that kind of class to be the easiest zero effort A. Read a book and have some opinion about it, versus other bullshit...

If youre downloading and using those apps you're part of the problem and deserve every bit of what you get.

I learned sometime in the early 2000s that milquetoast middle of the road posts are useless, generate no discussion, and are generally a waste of time for the writer and the reader. I'm not gonna bother posting unless its something I have a strong opinion about. I mean, why bother?

Some of us don't need an electronic device to remind us we need to get up. I literally havent used one in something like 20 years, and I wake up at exactly the same time every day (5 AM in my case) Imagine being non-functional, unable to do basic things like get out of bed by yourself, and then...

Its amazing anyone could look at the educational system in the US and conclude the general non-subject-related courses arent a complete fucking waste of time. Even funnier coming from a committed leftist like Mist, since this is a US centric thing. Canadian and European systems are almost...

Fair point on the 17 year olds. Didnt realize that cause I didnt get mine til 18. Not sure I can agree on the socialization being a difference. People are socialized into all kinds of purchases. Socialization is the reason people buy new cars instead of functionally equivelent used cars...

I'm not watching any anime shit but this has been an ongoing problems for a few years now. Read about something that people enjoyed watching with their kids. Watch it myself, and get horrified at what people are watching with their kids. Its really not complicated. Sex, nudity, and gay shit...

Kids? We're talking about adults who sign legally binding contracts. I don't disagree with your characterization of the universities' role in this. But lets be honest about the "victims" here. If that same young adult gets saddled with debt from other stupid decisions, like buying a new car...
