To me, it should only “matter” for technical reasons - to help find the root of the problem and fix it at the source. If your roof is leaking, then fix the roof. Don’t become an expert on where to place the buckets.
You’re right, though. It doesn’t matter in terms of excusing or justifying anything. It shouldn’t have been allowed to happen in the first place.
Something as simple and obvious as this makes me wonder what other hidden biases are just waiting to be discovered.
lol at “unpleasantly impress”
“Hey, baby, Elon Musk says we should fuck.”
Both people are being sexist - the person who made this initial statement, and the person who replied. I’m not really helping by calling them sexist, though. The important questions are “why does this stereotype exist? How do I prevent/fix it?”
This is such a classic communication problem. I’d like to hear how to overcome it.
Lmao it is now my goal to use the phrase “language salty enough to cure pork”.
The Founder Pounder series could be interesting. With horny shape shifters, the depravity is limited only by your imagination!
A friend of mine somehow said “rad” in a way that was ironic, gently mocking, and sincerely complimentary at the same time. It was perfect. I don’t think I’ll ever meet someone else who manages to say any word in quite that way.
A lot of gun owners don’t take safety seriously enough, either. Some of them leave loaded, unsecured firearms “hidden”, kids inevitably find them, and there are WAY too many tragic, completely preventable deaths. It’s insane.
How much pent up rage and anger does it take in order to shoot someone for stealing from your corporate employer?
The employee wasn’t in any kind of danger. He just wanted to shoot someone under what he thought were justifiable conditions.
I didn’t realize a B-52 had never landed in South Korea before. I would have assumed it had already happened enough times to be completely unremarkable.
No worries. These things happen.
Either you replied to the wrong comment, or I’m misunderstanding yours
Why do I keep hearing about this? Goldman Sachs screwed up, and they have no one to blame but themselves. Chance and bad luck were not involved at any stage. I’m sure the terms were decided on well in advance, and in excruciating detail, which is supposed to be what they’re good at. All the information they needed was right there.
They could (and should) have seen this coming, but instead, they were blinded by greed, didn’t do the math, or both. Boo fucking hoo.
Dune. Maybe it doesn’t focus enough on what you’re looking for, but I was happy to see Paul so readily showing affection for his friends (like Duncan and Hawat), receiving affection in return, and the genuinely loving relationship between Paul and his father.
I especially liked how Paul’s father reacted when Paul said he wasn’t sure he could be Duke: “You’ll still be the only thing I ever needed you to be - my son.”
It’s also worth noting that I genuinely liked Duncan, not because he was tough, “cool”, or a good fighter (although he was all of those things), but because he was a good person. I was actually sad when he died. By contrast, a lot of movies make you root for a character because they’re a badass who cracks jokes, and leave it at that.
I also appreciate that positive masculinity is normalized in several brief scenes, rather than an obvious, clumsy, heavy-handed delivery.
This is a good idea, but I have a suggestion:
Wait until these people are even more desperate. They bought these houses as vacation homes and rental properties, and knew the area was at risk. They’re lucky to be getting anything at all.
They don’t need the money. Play hardball, and save it for the thousands of people who will.
No. I never tried to say it. I just plain said it…
I’d like to point out to folks that whatever your stance on the issue may be, this statement (taken by itself) is pretty funny.
Please excuse the interruption and continue.
Wow, that’s bad. She looks (and moves) like she’s from The Sims.
