i’m gonna be the cynical one here and say that this was a stupid proposal in the first place. there was always going to be a good chance he dropped the ring box, or when he opened it the ring. not even taking into account the possibility of drowning, this was asinine.

Hahaha yea, except the code of conduct you’re describing doesn’t apply to the way men treat women, only other men. So while you may espouse the emotionlessness of how "males" shop, you completely ignore that around women, most men are loud, domineering, controlling, and rarely considerate of their space or time.

Something’s not right in this article. 69 days haven’t even passed yet since that government shut down.

well, if you don’t believe in capitalism, and you accept that there’s no ethical consumption under it, then no, it isn’t good just because it’s given to a good place. the fact of the matter is, money always has strings attached. it may not have any legal obligation, but papa johns is very much trying to buy a certain…

if your spirituality is fulfilled at the church of jack in the box, it sounds like you're in the right place

yes, it is bad, because that's how these scams happen - people willing to compromise their values to get what they want, no matter the cost to others.

have you been a server? this isn’t a fantasy. i get men on a daily basis that will fight over who can give me their card first. i’ve had men climb on the counter to do it. i’ve had men push each other, or yell, or give me a threatening look if i try to take the other man’s card instead.

This really makes me sad. We use a base ten - DECIMAL - system. If you’re too stupid to know how to calculate 10% and 20% with about 2 seconds of brain activity, you probably shouldn’t be leaving the house, driving, or interacting with other humans - much less drinking.

Sometimes the role of punishment is less about reparations to the victim, and more about deincentivizing future perpetrators from acting similarly.

can you change the way people think and act by using technology to, essentially, censor them? the phone can change “guys” to “folks”, sure. but it wont change what people say aloud, because theyll be anticipating the correction made for them.

How to save money - when you have and come from money - is worthless information at best, classist narcissism at worst.

how is this different from cloud-based save files on steam? i can play at home, and then on my laptop.

so far, very excited by this game, and i cant imagine my opinion of it will go down. it has all of the features i loved about digimon world (1), in that it feels like the tamagotchi-style origins of digimon, but theyve upgraded the battling in a way that is actually fun and interactive (which is why i couldnt enjoy…

“For you are grossing me out to the max” - whether your opinions are valid or not, your reasoning is terrible. You can’t legitimately tell someone not to do something because YOU don’t enjoy it, and ONLY because you don’t enjoy it.
