Haha, I just had a childhood flashback. My parents had ordered a box full of boxes of business cards, and then the government decided to restructure how phone numbers worked, so I changed the area code on roughly a bazillion businesscards over what felt like several years, but was probably a week.

Pfffft, Prime is SO 2023: https://finance.yahoo.com/news/meteoric-rise-stunning-fall-prime-130900275.html

1: the guys making it have a minimum purchase every month.

2: they keep selling less than that, costing them money.

3: charitable gifts are tax deductible

A good, it’s got what plants crave

one party

A well known issue with the left is that leftwing parties tend to split into a million different fractions.

corruption

Pretty sure a key feature of left-wing policy is transparency and removal of money in politics. Contrast to, for example, the recent US (right wing) supreme court ruling that bribery is totally legal as long as you do it beforehand.

executions

Unless this is your dog whistle for freedom to have an abortion, you’re just Imaging this. The death penalty is very much opposed by every left wing group or person.

burning of books,

Maybe, maybe at the far end, republishing books with disclaimers about the period they were written in…

those things happened in my country when we were under Soviet communist occupation.

And do you think the Soviet Union under Stalin was very leftwing? Or were they just extremely authoritarian? Did they practice much egalitarianism, or did they merely say they did? We’re they anti-war? Pro multiculturalism?

Do you Stalin think was an extreme liberal?

Fwiw, my IUD track record is 1 easy insertion, 1 easy removal, 1 “that wasn’t fun” removal and 1 “maybe giving birth would be preferable” insertion.

Your mileage may vary.

Oh fuck yes. I had a removed wisdom tooth get infected, and the dentist said “due to all the pus, the anesthesic won’t work as well, but don’t worry, we’ll go as fast as possible”.

It’s a phrase that features frequently in my nightmares.

Vehemently Anti-skub, like every normal, sane person

And asbestos. I work in hazardous materials and the amount of things that had asbestos in them is terrifying.

Asbestos carpets, and asbestos-structured paint for fucks sake. Imagine how many peoppe sanded down asbestos paint…

Ok, so, your point is that eyes have a limited field of view? Yeah, that’s something totally different, and not at all what this was about.

The good life of the 80s?

well, OP seems to be a healthy white straight male in his 20s, otherwise they definitely wouldn’t comment this.

Sorry, I left my magic wand in my other pants…

Most people don’t want to break the sacred bond of pretending you’re busy, because then next time, they might get caught for doing the same.

… buddy, have you tried it? Get up, walk to a mirror and test it. You’ll find that the picture shows you what happens

This but unironically. Society would be SO much better if we just did the whole “gender doesn’t matter” thing that started in the 90s instead of the “be whatever gender you feel like” thing from the late 10s.

You’re on yiffit, so the odds are very much against it.

Ok, visualize it like this:

Draw yourself, with a small mirror at head height, a meter away. Draw your reflection at the same distance from the mirror on the other side.

Now do that again, but place the mirror 10 times further. Then draw lines from your eye, to the edge of the mirror, and to the reflection.

You’ll reach the same point on your reflection.

Edit: or let the BBC do it for you; https://www.bbc.co.uk/bang/images/dallas_mirror_diagram_large.gif

And if you must, just grab the cheapest supermarket multivitamins and take only one. It probably won’t do much, but at least you’ll only waste a few pennies per day.

People just don’t understand mirrors.

I did a horrifying experiment in uni with a mirror on the wall, and asked people to point at where they thought they could see their reflection . The obvious answer is of course “when you’re next to it”. A terrifyingly large number of people at a University assumed they could see themselves at a 45 to 60 degree angle, so several step before they actually reached the mirror.

Some of them were even shocked when they walked along it.
