The off sales near my house recently added this, why tf would I tip when you’re grabbing a 6 pack that’s 2 steps away from the window? Gtfo with that shit. Tipping is for quality service in a sit down restaurant or for a delivery driver bringing me something cause I’m too lazy or drunk to do it myself.
Even then, tipping should be abolished and business owners should simply pay a proper fuckin wage instead of using customers to subsidize their profits.
Keep the dumbass reddit style “jokes” to reddit. Either answer the question or stfu. You’re not funny and your lame attempt at a “joke” is just annoying.
This is one of a million reasons why dogs are better than cats. And I say that as a cat owner (only of a year or so tbh but she annoys me FAR more than the dog will over his entire life)
White Sparrows by Billy Talent always gets to me when I listen to it
They gave her one more day
To say the words I couldn’t say
I’m crying in pain, crying in pain
And I’m not looking for answers
No, I’m not looking for answers
But dear God, why did you choose her?
White sparrows fell from heaven and carried her away
Black arrows cut the strings of my heart, I kneel and pray
I knew a comment like this was coming. It’s a fair point tbh and I agree with it.
That being said, this is a comm for people to ask legit questions and there are better places if you want to meme. Keep it to the proper comms instead of spreading more cancerous murican politics as far and wide as possible. This would be better off in one of the many shitposting or meme comms rather than a comm dedicated to people looking for real answers.
Yes I don’t have an answer either, but that doesn’t change the fact that this entire thread is comprised of unfunny people making obvious and unfunny jokes.
Such a good show, and a good example of people that are actually funny 😅
Any actual answers? This whole thread embodies one of the main things I hate about reddit. Everyone thinks they’re a comedian when none of the “jokes” are even remotely funny.
Answer the god damn question and quit trying to farm upvotes by making shitty “jokes” ffs.
I’m a huge space nerd and I straight up avoid comments on any article about Uranus because the comments are all from idiots that think they’re funny recycling the same old trash that’s been around for decades at this point.
Stop trying to be funny for internet clout and answer the fucking question, it’s not that hard.
mushy plop sound
🤢🤮🤮🤮🤮
Late reply, but thank you! That honestly helps a lot.
I hate the difference between to and too, I never get that right lol
Am Canadian, and absolutely not. As much as I hate murica, having the NHL be in both Canadian and murican cities is better for the game. Even Canadians that aren’t into hockey are at least kind of aware of the big games and big names, same can’t be said for murica. The more people that play the game and have a chance at making the big leagues, the better IMO.
That being said, I have a huge list of grievances with the NHL and I often see the sentiment of “best sport, worst league” among hockey fans and I agree with that completely. Refs are complete and utter trash, so is the department of player safety. The league is, IMO, quite corrupt and needs a top down reform to expel the old boys club from the top echelons of the league.
Hockey Canada itself as an organization is also extremely toxic and relies far too much on the old boys club as well. Just look at the sad state of Canadian goalies lately, we went from Price, Brodeur, Fleury, Luongo, Roy, etc to now having Binnington and Thompson as the Olympics goalies for Canada. Don’t get me wrong they aren’t bad, but it’s a far cry from the prime days of Canada pumping out extremely high quality goalies consistently. Now were average at best, and other countries, including the US (🤮) having much better goalies than us.
There’s also the whole cost thing, hockey has become a rich persons sport. You don’t stand a chance of making it to the big leagues unless you’re either a generational talent like McDavid or Price, or you spend tens of thousands over the years on professional 1 on 1 coaching. I’m 32 and I had to quit playing organized hockey at 14 cause my parents couldn’t afford to pay for the goalie gear and team fees etc and that was back in the mid 2000s. Shits only gotten worse since then.
If Canada wants to retain it’s position as the dominant hockey nation, then there are a lot of hard changes that need to be made. How many future Price’s, Crosby’s and McDavid’s have simply been priced out of the game and will never get the chance to be what they could’ve been?
My cats name is Chanelle, but I rarely call her that. Her nickname is kitty cat ribs the 2nd, but I usually call her either kitty or ribs. Back story behind the nickname is my best friend had a cat when we were kids, and when he’d annoy him he’d threaten to cook him up like a rack of baby back ribs, so we started calling him kitty cat ribs.
When I was a kid, my best friend had a cat and whenever he annoyed him, he’d threaten to cook him up like a rack of baby back ribs, so his nickname became kitty cat ribs. I have a cat now and her nickname is kitty cat ribs the 2nd, or just ribs for short.
Not sure but it can’t have been more than a few years right?
Right?!?
My life for Aiur Piefed!
Does your shit have glitter in it?
Gonna preface this by saying I’m obviously a huge Expanse fan so my opinion is definitely biased. My username is a character from The Expanse and I consider it both my favorite TV show and book series ever. Wanted to make that clear up front.
That being said, if the game is good and they eventually replace the slop assets with proper assets, then what does it matter? As much as I like Lemmy, the hardline stances the community tends to take pisses me off at times. “Oh you’re not a full blown communist and haven’t read Marx? You’re no better than a nazi you filthy shitlib”
Or regarding “AI” (hate that they called it that, it’s basically just a smarter auto correct thats existed in smartphone keyboards for years now) anyone that doesn’t automatically and passionately hate AI or any of its uses is automatically demonized as a supporter of big tech. Don’t get me wrong, I fucking hate 90% of what “AI” does and is used for, especially how corpos are using it as an excuse to lay off real people and how dumbasses are relying on it as pure truth when it constantly hallucinates bullshit. I don’t support “AI” and I can’t wait for the bubble to burst.
There’s almost zero nuance here, it’s 90% “you’re with us or you’re against us” with no room for anything in between.
If the game is good and they replace the slop assets with real assets when it’s released next year then who fucking cares that they used AI, what matters is whether the game is good or not and whether the devs are treated and paid well. Expedition 33 used AI in earlier iterations and it all got replaced with real assets eventually but that didn’t stop Lemmy from shitting on one of the best games (IMO) to come out within the last decade once that became public.
You wanna make this place a more mainstream alternative to big tech controlling everything? Get off your high horse and accept that there’s nuance to everything, it’s not just black and white. Otherwise this place will continue to scare off new users faster than it can gain them. I consider myself to be a progressive, I’m Canadian and I’ve only voted NDP since I was able to vote and I’m now 32. I also really respect AOC, Mamdani, and Sanders in the states, so I’m already close enough to the target demographic of Lemmy if you exclude the tankie trifecta (ml, hexbear, and grad) and even I get sick of the circlejerk here at times.
Judge something when you can actually have a proper opportunity to do so rather than getting preemptively pissed off because they had the audacity to use something you don’t like.
If the game comes out and still has slop in it and/or just sucks in general, then yeah, shit on it all you want, and I’ll be first in line to join the club cause I absolutely love The Expanse and I’ll be immensely disappointed if it turns out bad.
Again, in the interest of honesty and transparency, I usually prefer to just throw my opinions out there and not read or respond to replies when it’s something that I know is gonna be controversial so I won’t be replying to anyone that replies to this comment. I really hate arguing with random people on the internet so I just ignore replies for the most part.
