Absolutely, and to be clear I’m just talking because I have time to kill. I’m not debating just chatting lol your opinions are absolutely valid
- Comment on If you argue for a cause like affordable housing for everyone, is it necessarily hypocritical if you also own investment properties? 22 hours ago:
Yeah even in a perfect utopia not everyone would own a house. Sometimes you’re only living in a place for a short time

Sorry dbl reply. I wanted to explain my “hamburger” better. I’m sure you’re a smart person but I know I have a bad habit of explaining something a wild metaphor from left field lol.
You should also know my mental image of myself is a British person although I’m really from Texas. Forgive me if if I sound posh in my explanation.

Like all advice it isn’t one size fits all… I will challenge with this tho:
Are you disappointed I didn’t get YOU a hamburger when I went out to whataburger?
You didn’t know, you aren’t missing what you didn’t know about.
What I mean is if you want commentary on the dvd you’ll read the description to see if it’s on there. If you didn’t care enough to look for it… maybe you’d still like the commentary if you got it, but if you didn’t have it you wouldn’t exactly be “missing” that additional content. However if you pay more for features you didn’t need or want you’ve wasted some money.
Just my opinions and tho. I’m not philosopher or anything.
- Comment on what does it mean being nice to your coworkers to you? 2 days ago:
I’m well known as being nice at work. I never talk about anything in my personal life, I’m very sarcastic, and I’m vocal “I’m not here to make friends, I just want to get paid”
Why do my coworkers think I’m nice and like me anyway?
Because I help them whenever they need help. There are ways to be nice, friendly, and cool without socializing.

“I can’t figure out the difference “
Get the cheaper one then.
I’m a salesmen and anytime I’m in a situation where a customer is like “what’s the difference “ and I can explain why one costs more than another… it’s normally different features or materials… but at the end of the day if you don’t care about the “extra long deleted scenes with director commentary” enough to see it’s there then you probably don’t need it.
Just buy the cheaper one you’ll be fine
- Comment on Belt² 5 days ago:
I worked at a leather shop that sold belts. That belt is far too long. He isn’t even in the wholes
Also he can cut the belt from the buckle end and re screw the buckle on. It’s not that difficult really
- Comment on what are the grievances with the "male loneliness epidemic"? 1 week ago:
“It’s actually good to not receive help as an addict”
That’s… silly lol. Where did you pull that idea from?
It’s different because physical addiction is harder to deal with, you can die lol
I was also homeschooled in the Texas countryside as a kid… I understand being lonely… addiction is harder.
- Comment on what are the grievances with the "male loneliness epidemic"? 1 week ago:
I’m a recovering drug addict. Nobody wanted to help me, rejected by everyone who wasn’t a recovering drug addict.
I got out of the loop.
- Comment on what are the grievances with the "male loneliness epidemic"? 1 week ago:
I think it’s important to note the incels often mean “the women I think are hot won’t fuck me”
They could find a girlfriend if they improved their personality or lowered their standards but they don’t want to do that.

- Comment on Is there a place online where I can apply for a bunch of free books? I was thinking of creating a library in my local county jail to help educate and pass the time in a healthy way? 2 weeks ago:
I want to add that I’ve heard you can get cheaper postal rates if it’s a book.

100 mil isn’t too much. Cancer can wipe out ten mil.

You’re right it was sim city! Every time you built a police station! That’s why it burned into my memory!
- Comment on For some reason suicide is illegal. If someone is going or trying to commit suicide and get talked down are they still in trouble or get locked up or sent to a medical facility? 3 weeks ago:
On a sadder note I remover just walking laps around the area when I was bored and thinking about the animals in zoos that just pace back and forth because they’re cage is too small with nothing to do… so you just walk around…
- Comment on For some reason suicide is illegal. If someone is going or trying to commit suicide and get talked down are they still in trouble or get locked up or sent to a medical facility? 3 weeks ago:
Exactly. I got to see it from both sides because my sister is a nurse for a facility like I was in as well.
I’d talk to her a lot on the phone. You know the phone with the super short cord you couldn’t hang yourself with lol
- Comment on Is it everywhere? 3 weeks ago:
There’s this cops radio chatter I heard in hyper studio as a kid that’s in every police scene. Can’t make out what it says but it has the number 1 28 9 in it
- Comment on For some reason suicide is illegal. If someone is going or trying to commit suicide and get talked down are they still in trouble or get locked up or sent to a medical facility? 3 weeks ago:
Can confirm. I had a bad reaction to some new meds and tried to kill myself twice in one week. The second time I even fought with the cops. First I was sent to the er then to an all purpose rehab/loony bin until I was cleared for release.
Spot on with the heavy furniture you can’t easily lift. You also needed a doctor’s recommendation to shave and they watched you like a hawk with that razor.
There was also groups where the helped with coping skills and talked about problems. It wasn’t a fun place to be but they were trying to help.
- Comment on Larry Ellison Just Quietly Became the Most Powerful Man in America 3 weeks ago:
We’d have to adjust it with inflation. Don’t get me wrong I’d love to have 10 million but it doesn’t go as far as it used to. I could see capping it at 100 mil tho
- Comment on Australia to recognise Palestinians' right 'to a state of their own', PM says 3 weeks ago:
It’s the equivalent of “I’m sorry you felt that was offensive “
It specifically says Palestine isn’t a state
- Comment on Larry Ellison Just Quietly Became the Most Powerful Man in America 3 weeks ago:
I prefer a prestige mode. Once you hit one billion you get all your money and assets stripped away and you start from square one again. But you get a cool star by your name for every time you reset and start again.
It’s mandatory.
So your choices are start donating a lot of money when you’re at 900 million or to hold it of or enjoy the cool star by your name and lift yourself up by you’re bootstraps once more.

And you don’t need alligators to make a swamp. Not relevant to the question I asked.

I’d talk about taffy if we’re lucky enough to have it. We chewed rubber across the street from the taffy store hoping to catch a wiff of the taffy. If the wind was right you’d almost smell it over the horse manure we had to carry back and forth.
But you’ve said you’ve grown have you? Let me put my glasses on and take a look at ya. How old you get up to now? 17? When I was your age I was 24 and had to hide from the draft but I know you do the best you can and I don’t hold it against you. Life is softer now a days, you grew up with all your toes I see. We used to have to write our names on our toes in case they got stolen police weren’t now damn good barely got half of them back . … you’re a good boy tho lad. Strapping. Like your Father before he got sloppy and stumbled into all that doctor brain pull crap. Pills making people happy now. If I wanted haUppy I had to go to war and get an arm blown off and you don’t see me complaining.
Run along now son and tell your mother I need another rooted beer and make it a good one this time. Damn lazy kids. My father never ask twice a day in his life. He asked once then he kill ya and replace ya with a kid that minded better and they call that abuse now. That’s why nothing ever gets done anymore with the construction down the road. Six weeks for pavement and they call it progress. Their lucky. They don’t even… They don’t … damn kids.and their play tubes… Snoring … We stood in line for our kidneys… Snoring.

Back in my day you used to be able to buy twelve horseshoe crabs for a nickel… Of course that was before the war… Back then id swear at least two and a half teenth of my crew where horse shew crab but who you going to tell ? Tattling wouldn’t be invented for another 2 score years up in Kentucky you had to wait another 6!
But it’s was easier and I miss those days. If you could dodge the knowledge toads you were already 12 up on these Irish but we can’t say that anymore can we? No sir…now we got to give everything to the freckled folk and act like that’s the way it’s meant to be but it’s not. It wasn’t a thing until the battle of leaky hill… But we lost and I had to accept that to get tomatoes down at the Paul’s service at a decent price. Don’t even get me started about the tomatoes. You never damn believe it.
Sorry I’m going to be a grandfather soon so I’m practicing
