This post was awesome. You're crazy.
This post was awesome. You're crazy.
It's normal until you hit about 38. Then it's not.
It is absolutely, positively, utterly ridiculous to think that you can "easily" manage every decision or situation. It's delusional. Some decisions involve finding consensus with irrational people, emotional people, people with wildly conflicting points of view.
Good grief. Binary decisions? I'm sorry but that's ridiculous. Some of these decisions are hard because they usually involve other people, finding consensus, conflicting needs and wants (house, where to live, etc.). Those are so far from being binary decisions it's not even funny, unless, of course, you ignore…
Nonsense. I have everything you mentioned at 42, and most of these decisions were hard for me, and I see most of them being hard for many people. Great for you that they weren't. Congrats for being awesome, but the OP was right. These are hard decisions for most people.
What's there to explain? You're crazy. You're arguing that a list of life decisions that 99% of the population would agree are difficult, are in fact, not. The more you try to elucidate, the less relatable you are.
I couldn't disagree more.
I actually kind of agree with him. I don't think your major is as important as many (mostly 20-something-year-old) people think. A lot depends on how open your horizons are, because if you have your sights set on working for just one company, then yeah, you have to follow a very specific track in school, but if you're…
If you can so casually dismiss the magnitude of these decisions, then I suspect you haven't faced many of them. Sometimes responsibilities throw off the math, making the answer to questions like "Where should I live?" more complicated than "live someplace close to your job." Sometimes the elementary schools near your…
"claims" it will do that. That's kind of the key word there, and when/if this ever goes into production, the mileage bar will probably be set far higher than 200.
But do they have the same range? The stated 200 miles for this is just theoretical concept, whereas Tesla's range is real.
I know that's the politically correct thing to say, that you never notice color, and that it's uncool if you ever distinguish people by color or ethnicity, like by saying, "Is he the black guy?" or "Is he the big Samoan guy?" or "Is he the portagee who talks fast?" but with all due respect, I think that's a crock.…
Fair enough, and I hope this isn't white guilt talking, because that is a real thing, and it's real confusing sometimes, but I don't envy you for having to think about and notice things like this. Even though I'm white, I'm born and raised in Hawaii and my wife is Filipino, and even I notice when things seem "too…
But look at how well the guy was liked and how generally positive the threads about him have been online. That's almost never the case when a public figure passes.
It's true though. It's hard to find a thread online about anyone's passing that isn't liberally peppered with hateful or at least insensitive remarks. Things that most people would never think of saying to a complete stranger in public, but they'll gleefully write it on the Internet.
I think you're seeing bogeymen in the closets, dude. I don't see any of that Putin worship that you describe on a large scale. Half my family is conservative, and the most I hear about Putin is that he can't and shouldn't be dismissed, which I agree with, and that he's also a dangerous adversary because he's an…
Uh...who's worshipping him?? Most think he's a madman, but he know what he can get away with. Russia pushes its weight around because no one wants to risk their own civilization to stop them.
"Putin's f*cked"? Perhaps temporarily due to oil prices, but not militarily. Russia knows that all they have to do is make resisting their will so painful that the West will do anything to avoid testing it. That's why no one wants to push them over Crimea. It wouldn't be worth the utter hell they would put them…
I'd never watched one of his videos before reading this article but did watch the Shrek one here and found myself cracking up multiple times. I'm a 42-year-old married guy who loves games but hasn't had much time to play them regularly in years, but I felt like I did back in the day when I played games with my buds.
Great article. As a good person who happens to be white, I try not to over-think race. There's so much of that out there already. Everyone spending so much time thinking about race in America, and white guilt, and black anger. I just try to be the best imperfect person I can be, but I'm mostly selfish.
