The things that annoy us are things we are not used to. There are hundreds of things in your life that are equally annoying but since they have always been that way you don’t notice them. That’s why babies are the way they are. Everything us new and annoying.

I had the same instinct to tear them off but I told myself to not be a toddler and just got used to it within a week.

My general impression is that India are really good at scientific innovation and so on but only because the incredible inequality allows India to channel its resources so that it can be on par with other countries a fraction it’s size.

If they did the work required to lift the poor regions out of poverty, and sometimes just straight up feudalism, the country would become a proper superpower with far reaching cultural impact but right now India seem to slide further into Hindu nationalism so now it’s more of a worry for everyone else if India became another dictatorship like china.

The biggest problem with growing a beard is that it only looks good after a certain amount of time. When people grow beards it’s usually when they are on vacation because it is nice not having to shave and you dont have to look professional with a crazy half grown beard.

A couple of years ago the word took an extended vacation and a lot of people took the opportunity to grow a beard.

I unironically think I respect them more than you do. If I had to chose between a uninterested moron and whatever smug energy you have, I would go with the moron.

You are literally one of those guys. All your replies in this thread is you being that guy.

I described a behaviour and two qualities. I said that people with the behaviour often have these two qualities. I then said I dont respect people with that behaviour.

There are a lot if people that are stupid but still fun and interesting people. They have skills that I don’t have and perspectives that I don’t have. They have found ways to interact with the world that works with their shortcomings. I respect them.

Some stupid people decide to hide their stupidity by spending a lot of time arguing that they shouldn’t have to elaborate on their opinion and we should treat all opinions the same without scrutiny. They dont grow, they dont learn, they make their own shortcomings other peoples problem. I dont respect them.

I also dont respect people that start comments with a joker laugh.

People that spend energy on arguing their right to have opinions rather than defending the opinion are deeply uninteresting and often stupid people that I don’t not respect in any capacity.

Is the plan that you are going to use that nail scissor as your main household scissor? When you buy something in a thick blister pack your plan is to awkwardly chew trough the plastic with a tiny and slightly curved nail scissor?

Why is it the only chair available? Why can’t it be replaced? Who decided to put that chair there and why does that person thing its sufficient? Why do you require a chair in that yard? Is it someones yard or is it a public space that happens to have a plastic chair?

Could you answer at least one of these questions. Any information that isn’t just a picture of a broken stool would be nice.

Do you plan on elaborating this time?

This is super helpful, thank you for taking the time to write this.

When is it correct to use compound words in english? In Swedish you can do compound words for anything at will. In English “flagpole” is its own word but “dirt farmer” isn’t.

It’s hard to be a good company when you are owned by demons

That’s unfortunate. Prime video had some shows that were good and it had a really cool feature where you got information about the actors on your phone while you were chromecasting. Everyone with lines got a card with their name, characters name (if it’s revealed) and what they are known for. Video was the only part of the company that I am not actively boycotting but I guess its piracy all the way now.

This is like the third post I’ve seen of women being weirdly into smoking and the proof is either a text or easily photoshopped tattoos like this. I think it may just be a fetish thing escaping into the wild.

And furiously wanking.

But they are not solutions to the problem. They are asking you to fully abandon the problem and tackle a completely new set of problems.

The most annoying part is that they know this, they just want to signal their own moral superiority.

It’s basically a car mechanic that also do crystal healing and claim changing the car battery and placing a piece of quarts on the dashboard had equal parts in fixing the car.

I bought no man sky at some point because I felt it had enough value to warrant the price so adding things do translate into sales. You just have to balance the investments into the game and how much extra sales you can get.

Terraria is also a good example. They have kept their game relevant for so long that they are actually getting brand new customers just trough birthrates. Everytime they release stuff people talk about the game and people that were too young to buy it at release suddenly buys it.
