You said you don’t need two governments.

This was my first thought as well.

It’s funny how many online people turn into libertarians the moment an HOA is mentioned.

So the highest level of government should be policing this? You don’t think there should be any form of local government?

The candy and the DVDs come neatly packed in perfectly sized boxes.

A messy bin is more work and takes up more space, but it makes shoppers feel like they’re getting a better deal.

I’m not making this up. It’s a well-established thing.

It’s psychology. Physically engaging with the product makes customers more likely to purchase it. And having it be disorganized draws the customer’s attention.

The image is reversed. The products were placed in the bin and then mixed up. Digging through a disorganized bin and touching all the products is Walmart’s desired customer experience here. They sell more of certain products that way.

So… good job doing all that hypothetical free work for a billion dollar corporation.

I appreciate your perspective.

I’ll do you one better and say that a lot of times it comes from chronically online Americans who got their opinion from said Europeans. And at least some of the time it’s from third world bots whose marching orders are to spread any and every kind of anti-American sentiment.

Lately I just prefer to put the opposing idea out into the aether rather than try to dig into a whole online argument… thing.

There are large sections of the US that don’t have consistent access to great food, so crappy fast food is what they get.

Then there are other parts of the US where the fast food is amazing. Also the other food.

Fun fact: when birds have sex it’s called a cloacal kiss.

When I learned about germs, how they’re everywhere and too small to see, I thought I must be squishing them every time I touch anything. So I went around the entire house touching every surface, especially the windows, because nobody ever touched those.

Maduro cheating comes from the same people that said the US 2020 election was rigged

Do you have a source for that? Because from what I can tell, the exact opposite is true, and the sources for these two claims are generally opposed to each other.

The whole thing has a stink to it. Obviously I can’t be 100% certain, but whenever a story like that on reddit sounds a little too perfect, it’s probably made up.

Having more typos in the title than in the post is a hint.

It’s also just exactly the sort of thing that people will run away with on the internet. It’s hitting a hot button topic about something that people started seeing in memes a couple weeks ago.

Plus it’s too smooth. If the intention was to relay an event that actually happened, there’d be some kind of rough edge to it, something unexpected. But if the intention was to expand on that meme in an easily digestible way, this is what you’d get.

It’s not the most obviously fake post I’ve seen on reddit, and it’s possible I’m wrong. But like I said, I’d be willing bet on it.

I’d be willing to bet that it’s fake.

As a lifelong Magic player, I’ve reached a point where I’ve accepted that my strengths are more in drafting, deckbuilding, and card evaluation, not in reading complicated board states. I play more aggressively now and do better because of it. My new motto is “math is for blockers”.

No, that’s definitely not how it works. It would never be worded this way to begin with, but this “effect” is just a homonym of the word you’re referring to.

I think he was on his way to come tell us something, then he got tired and fell back to sleep. He’s three.

Most of the time it’s right in front of me, but my brain is just shortcutting over it.

It’s become a running gag in my house that my wife will set something down on the floor so that I can’t possibly miss it, like a laundry basket that needs to go downstairs, and I step over it without thinking.

One time, late at night, I went to my son’s bedroom to make sure he was asleep. His bed was empty. As I was leaving, I saw him asleep on the floor in the middle of the hall, which means I’d stepped over him.

Sometimes I just don’t see things.

I like the way they list those things in the title. Like which one is the most expensive: the hospital, the submarine garage, or fifteen gaming PCs?

Why do you think his kidney failed? That’s where he hid the gold!

Two things can be true.
