Right now as I’m typing this, people are dying around the world because of hate, greed, diseases, or even accidents. Billions of individuals are praying for world peace or good health in all the different religions. If there was a god, then he sure ain’t answering prayers.

You make ten bucks for every person that falls for your next rickroll. How do you maximize earnings?
Easy, edit the video itself so the first few milliseconds are of something else so on Discord the thumbnail is different. Then send it to all my friends and several servers on Discord, fooling people into watching it
If you were a commander in the Russian army, would you show Putin these horrible clips of casualties inflicted risking more drastic action?
I would get the hell away from Russia and Ukraine because your choices are to send your men to inflict death on innocents and die themselves, and/or die in their place. There is literally no good that can come of this war on the Russian side.
What screams “I’m A jerk”?
Having an inability to admit that you’re wrong. The biggest jerks I’ve made are always headstrong, self-assured assholes who think they’re always right and will gaslight the hell out of you if proven wrong
Redditors in relationships, when you spoon where do you put your arms?
What I started doing (and it’s worked the best for me so far) is I’ll lay my arm down on the bed itself and put the pillow over my arm. So that way, with a bit of maneuvering you have a pillow as a safety buffer from death-numbness.
What’s the best place to look for wheelchair accessible housing for seniors?
Not me, but my dad is blind. Lots of home appliances have been going from physical knobs and buttons with clear distinct functions to touch screen panels, some without even any type of sound or tactile cue to let the person know.
what is the best strategy to keep that seat next to you empty in public transport?
Sit in the aisle seat, put your backpack on the window seat and close your eyes. Works best with Headphones in. But if there is literally no other seat and/or an elderly, pregnant or disabled person needs a seat, don’t be an asshole and give up your seat, at least one of them.
What’s a movie (other than The Room) or TV series you recommend to people because of just how poorly executed it was?
Beyond The Black Rainbow. It has one of my favorite critical reviews I’ve ever read: The movie looks like it was lit by lava lamps, scored on Moog synthesizers, written between bong hits and acted underwater. None of this is meant as praise.
What’s a fact about mental health everyone gets wrong?
Substance abuse is not a ‘muh disease’, it is bad behavior. They are not ‘muh victims’ they leave a trail of victims in their wake.
What screams “I’m a horrible boss?”
Reminding people whose paying them or what the rules are constantly. Ignoring truancy while zealously enforcing the uniform or some other petty rule. Making up rules just to enforce them.

Warning of dire consequences if an inspector sees… Continue reading What screams “I’m a horrible boss?”
What is your favorite memory?
I saw my grandmas body in a viewing before the funeral. Still regret it years later. I will NEVER willingly see a body again, I owe it to the person to remember them the way they were, NOT the body with black fingers that looks too perfect
People who have traveled to singapore, how was the trip? & Do you have any advice for people visiting there?
It’s a tropical rain forest, so expect tshirt weather and the weather channel is just a suggestion; it can rain at any time. If possible, go on a guided tour since you get hotel and travel and food all bundled together for a great price.

This may sound corny, but I would use all the time I have to work, and dedicate most of that time to charity instead The rest of the time, I’d just be shopping and sleeping.
What was the biggest social mistake you’ve ever made?
Lol fair enough. The one that stands out in my brain was when I was thirteen. I have a disorder that presents very similarly to autism, so I communicate a lot by memorizing the socially appropriate thing to say and repeating it. I arrived at a funeral. The priest asked how I was doing. I… Continue reading What was the biggest social mistake you’ve ever made?
Typically within the music industry why is there a lot of female singers but barely/rarely any female record producers (women who actually compose the songs) Why do you believe this is?
The music that makes into the top charts here in the West is basically just softcore pornography, at this point. I like some of the songs just as much as the next guy, but simply because we’re fans of this and that singer, shouldn’t mean we have to pretend the music industry is anything but… Continue reading Typically within the music industry why is there a lot of female singers but barely/rarely any female record producers (women who actually compose the songs) Why do you believe this is?
Is there any law against workers buying stocks of the company in which they are working? If not why don’t they organize to buy large amounts of stock and truly benefit?
Only if it’s a large amount or if you have insider information about company plans. In those cases, you have to register as an insider and file with the SEC before you buy and sell and they’ll post your trades publicly.
What do you think of store-bought “carbonara” sauce?
While the pasta cooks you can just make real cabonara sauce, i.e. fry guancale or bacon or whatever and mix eggs with cheese. So you dont even save time, hence I think nothing about store-bought sauce. Unless you like the taste of it and dont want real carbonara, then go for it.
What series, animated or not, had the best intro and why?
There are essays detailing why the Batman animated series opener is the best, bar none. Even if you know jack shit about Batman and Gotham, this intro is a crash course in who the character is, what the city is like, and what the general tone of the series is gonna be. It’s basically a… Continue reading What series, animated or not, had the best intro and why?
What is the best way to learn a new language?
Rosetta Stone software has been the best in my experience as far as do-it-yourself methods. But obviously the BEST is to actually live in the country you’re trying to learn the language of and just be immersed in it.

Daily. I have a hook I screwed into the doorframe to hang them on, and I never remember to put them there. So almost everyday I go to leave, look at hook, look on the table, look in the couch, look in yesterday’s jeans….
What’s something that people with pretty privilege won’t/don’t understand?

What impulse purchase do you still regularly think about to this day?
I shouldn’t laugh, but claiming a ‘calming effect’, but actually tripping balls, sounds pretty funny when written on screen. Hope it wasn’t too traumatic for you, though.
What was the most satisfying way you saw a defense get derailed in a courtroom?
“Sir, I understand the mitigsting circumstances you’ve just presented, however you also just admitted that you did indeed park in the handicap spot despite not being handicapped so I’m afraid I have no choice but to find you guilty and fine you accordingly.” Traffic court is a RIOT and I highly encourage you to make… Continue reading What was the most satisfying way you saw a defense get derailed in a courtroom?
What scam has been normalized to the point that people forget it’s a scam?
Phone and internet bundle contracts.. Heck “bundle deals” all together Often times you are not exactly saving on bundle deals they just force something slightly different (or sometimes the same thing) while bundled with something to inflate a bundle.. when you happen to need it. Fine.. usually can be not scammy.. but sometimes even if… Continue reading What scam has been normalized to the point that people forget it’s a scam?

What made you decide to be sober?
I like this answer. There’s a general consensus amongst people that there has to be a ‘rock bottom’ moment for people. You’ve just shown that there doesn’t always need to be something dramatic that causes a person to say enough is enough. Aside from this, well done on quitting.
People who have experienced lucid dreaming, what was your most surreal experience while in a lucid dream?
I asked some people in my dream if they were my subconscious, and one answered “last time you asked us that we told you that you have no conscience.” Not sure what it means, but it’s weird that I had that conversation with myself.

Hitler say all the bad stuff you want about him, dude’s obviously a great leader
What do you think WAS in the briefcase from Pulp Fiction?
I like the theory that it’s Samuel L Jackson’s Soul (Or was it Bruce Willis’ soul?) Realistically it’s probably really good heroin but it’s left blank for the viewer to decide on purpose.
Redditors, do you believe in mediums or psychics? If so, what is an experience you had that stopped you from being a skeptic?
I don’t believe in them. I do however believe that we can connect with our loved ones who departed in life through prayer, technology (recordings), stories from relatives, genetics, and dreams. I don’t trust what a complete stranger has to say about someone I knew.
Those who are able to enjoy music without imagining themselves in it, how??

Ladies, how do you feel if someone, decent looking (not shady or selling sh*t) tried to strike a conversation with you in a public place?
Lady here. There’s always going to be a certain amount of wariness. Even you asking this question here implies that you’re trying to figure out how to flirt without flirting, haha. If we’re genuinely attracted to you, we might keep chatting. The least awkward place to talk to us out of the blue is somewhere… Continue reading Ladies, how do you feel if someone, decent looking (not shady or selling sh*t) tried to strike a conversation with you in a public place?
Which wedding rituals/ after wedding behaviour did you find oppressive?
My wife wanted to do a traditional thing where she washes my feet. Oppressive is a strong word. But it didn’t feel right to have her do that. Makes it seem like she’s beneath me, and I ain’t about that shit.

More hate more despair, “love and hate are best the one you feed grows” Aka emotions create neurological pathways in your brain the more that emotion is fostered the stronger that pathway gets, it’s possible to regrow weak pathways with time effort
If you could have free meals for life at one fast food chain, which one would you choose?
Planet Pizza. It tastes a lot like the kind I grew up with in Jersey. I was actually going to use this restaurant I used to go to as a kid when we traveled… It had this buffet with a little bit of everything, pizza, tacos, wings,… It wasn’t very good, but it would cover… Continue reading If you could have free meals for life at one fast food chain, which one would you choose?
Who is the best superhero casting of all time?
Christopher Reeve in Superman, he was so good at being both the bumbling, feckless Clark Kent but then transforming into the amazing stranger from the planet Krypton. I might put Michael Keaton as Batman as a runner-up.

Less crowd work, crowd work is nice but a lot of comedians get out of pocket really fast. If crowd work is the main part of your act, it might suck

Upscaling a regular outing. Going to the movies? Surprise them with Cineopolis/luxury cinema. Going to a theme park? Surprise them with VIP tour. Going to dinner?

Food travelers of Reddit, what famous restaurant (or other food spot) disappointed you the most?

The Vauxhall Insignia. It attracts the infamous kind of drivers that BMW’s or Audi’s would attract. Speeding, rude, inconsiderate, etc. … but, they’re even worse.
[serious] What advice do you have for an adult just learning how to drive?
Learn how to deal with ALL types of anxiety with the ease of a truck driver with tenure.

If you are given a life sentence you have two options – switch to a death penalty and donate your organs or get exiled to Antarctica, and take your chances there (you’ll get a MRE, a water bottle, and a nice fluffly coat.)

Even the suburbs feel busy in comparison! How does someone get used to living in a major city after growing up in a very small rural town?
Exposure, mostly. After a while you get a knack for handling the traffic, learning the best times to go somewhere and when to avoid going out entirely. If you have mass transit and nice headphones, that can help block everyone out, too.
People who work in jobs with professional confidentiality, do you really not tell anyone? why or why not?
I mean, I work with critical infrastructure. So, yea, I don’t tell people any details of what I do because that would compromise the infrastructure. Not only am I not keen to commit a felony but I am also not keen to potentially aid an act of terrorism (likely domestic, but still).
Which character are you most likely to be in a horror movie, the final girl, the first to die, the comic relief, the skeptic, the smart one, or the killer?
the skeptic and the killer I’d keep questioning the other character’s so-called evidence, making it seem like everything is ok. Only to lure them deeper into the trap that I have set for them.

I’ll die. Like full stop there is no plan. I am a pretty self sustaining person that knows a lot of basic skills for survival and self defense but I absolutely do NOT know enough about anything to survive a full blown apocalypse. Since I’m in suburbs over the city I wouldn’t be one of… Continue reading What is your plan for the inevitable zombie apocalypse?
Do you think digital technology makes children’s lives better? and why?
It has its ups and downs. The possibilities of what to do with it, how it can promote children’s creative development etc. seem endless. At the same time though, it brings so much bad stuff with it, like how social media has been proven to negatively affect children psychologically.
Atheists of Reddit, since you have really no reason to care, why do you try to convert people?
Atheism is just like religion. It’s a hard held belief. And while atheists cousin to not believe in a God, their god is often just substituted with another thing, like a government. They, just like theists are trying to convert you as a form of confirmation bias. If you change your belief to be aligned… Continue reading Atheists of Reddit, since you have really no reason to care, why do you try to convert people?
What is the medical community’s general view of Chiropractors? Pseudo science or not?
I have a friend who was into new age stuff, and she recommended her chiropractor. As far as it being a “massage” kind of thing, sure, it’s fine. But, there’s nothing medical about it.

Pseudo science or not?

What did JK Rowling say that was transphobic?
I have no idea, I still watch Tom Cruise movies even though he is a huge dillweed and his religion is ridiculous and I cringe when I see him outside of movies. I don’t think anything should cancel anyone, unless they be doing Jeffrey Dahmer type stuff.
What would happen if Hitler didn’t invade USSR and kept their non aggression pact?
I think if Hitler didn’t break the Molotov Ribbentrop pact, he wouldn’t be remembered as the devil he is now. Without USSR on the allies side, it would be a lot harder to defeat Germans. If the Nazi Regime survived, the successors of Hitler would get closer to USSR most likely and embrace the socialist… Continue reading What would happen if Hitler didn’t invade USSR and kept their non aggression pact?
what would be a great horror story?
A few years ago I was walking through the woods off the beaten track a bit and I smelt this really overpowering sweet smell.

If you ever had such a moment, when did you realise you were doing something very wrong in the past and changed for the better?
I’ll begin. I don’t remember much already, but when I got into school I usedd to get into many conflicts, trying to look cool. But was actually bullied by a larger group of bullies and had no actual friends. I was doing pretty well in studying, though, so this may be another reason of me… Continue reading If you ever had such a moment, when did you realise you were doing something very wrong in the past and changed for the better?

People who don’t believe in God. How did you come to the conclusion that God does not exist?
I don’t believe in the Christian version of God that I got taught about way back in Bible school; some guy up there who looks human and wants us all to be good and have a relationship with his son, nah, that’s not realistic and sounds like typical human fantasy of wanting to have a… Continue reading People who don’t believe in God. How did you come to the conclusion that God does not exist?

Just before me and my sister were born: My parents and my “aunt” and “uncle” (just close family friends) used to do repo service for dealers whose clients never paid. I thought they were just like the TLC’s repo shows when i was little
People that have been in therapy, how has life changed for you?
Tbh, so far, after going to therapy with my parents, to park through some issues, tbh, it’s only back fires and made things worse, and my mom’s passive agressive ness has only regressed/worsened, I think out of self preservation.
The pain of a tattoo feels good. Why do you think?
Well that really depends on your definition of pain and pleasure. Pain releases endorphins (what heroin mimics), and that’s the objective part. The subjective part is whether transitory pleasure is joyous.
Who was the best animal companion you ever had?
My current little man. He’s my very best friend and we love to hang out. He got me through college and grad school and never complained once. I love him more than anything. But also, he’s the worst and wants nothing more than to scream and destroy things.
Is your child in a special education school? If so, what made you select the school they are in?
I don’t know if this is the same but I personally went to an advance education school And it was the perfect school for me because I do have learning disabilities that make it very hard for me to understand certain things and because I went to an advanced education center I got to learn… Continue reading Is your child in a special education school? If so, what made you select the school they are in?
If you were to be exiled from your current country and can never go back, where would you go?
Your finger landed you in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. The wifi is terrible. You, however, don’t care because you got tired of swimming, and your corps is slowly sinking to the bottom of the ocean. Where it will be consumed by carnivorous fish.
Men of Reddit, what is your best male friend’s preference in a partner?
I have two, one likes them small, pale,and chunky with a big dumper. His current partner meets all of those prerequisites The other is a few years younger so he’s more into the alt look, but he has a thing for long/thicc legs and Asian girls
Religion or Politics, which tends to be more polarizing?
As far as the world I live in goes I’d say politics without a doubt. I see a lot of “convenient religiosity”, which is really underpinned by class and political division. Without some other factor standing in the way, I can get along with people of different religions and heritages no problem. Doesn’t seem like… Continue reading Religion or Politics, which tends to be more polarizing?
Do you find it easy to make friends? Why?
Yes. Do i use this power to make friends? No. Because most people are dishonest, disingenuous cowards who only operate to serve their own self interests, and that just doesn’t sit right with me.

as someone who goes by ChatGPT online, I’m not sure how Mr. or Ms. ChatGPT would sound in a courtroom, but I suppose it would make for an interesting conversation starter.
Why has reddit removed the ability to sort comments without logging in?
Up until today I could sort comments by “old”, “new”, “best” without logging in first. Today, every time I try to sort comments on a post a login window appears and I am unable to sort without logging in first. Any ideas why this change was made?

Jack is behaving dangerously on a plane and refuses… Continue reading What movie did you rewatch as an adult and have a way different perspective on than when you saw it as a kid?
Only children: Are you upset you never had any siblings? Why or why not?
Nope. The only thing about it that bugs me is I’m the sole person to deal with everything when my parents pass. It would be nice to share that responsibility with someone else, and reminisce together.
What’s the difference between a sugar baby and a escort?
Exclusivity comes to mind. Usually you hire a sugar baby to be *yours*. An escort you just hire them per hour, but that escort can be with others outside of those hours. A sugar baby can also lie to you and not be exclusive, or you can not care… but usually that’s the main difference.
if your username determined the end of the world, how screwed would we be?
Depends if it’s the “secret zombie mind control” kind, the “evil soggy girl comes out of the TV and throws you down a well” kind, or the “so scary and depressing everyone goes into a coma forever” kind. In any case, the situation would not be specifically that great.
What do you miss the most about your high school times?
The unknown of how sick I really was, how cold the real world could be and loving every little moment like it was my last. Now some days, I grasp at those memories and replay them in my memory like vinyl record on a player.
Do you think marriage and romanctic love is unneccesary in life? Why?
Absolutely not. Love is what makes life worth living. One of my spiciest, meanest, and probably most wrong takes is that asexuals are fooling themselves. I used to identify as an asexual, turns out I was just scared, and I grew out of it.
What is the most memorable sport event for you?
That I’ve seen in person, I was at a Blue Jays home game that featured an inside the park home run. Edwin Encarnacion hit a double to the outfield, but a couple of throwing errors allowed him to come around and, and then third for a run. It was so exciting and fun to watch.
What person most people want to smash but you pass?
Timothy Chalamet and other more delicate looking men for lack of a better word. I get the hype, but it’s just not my preference anymore – it probably was when I was a preteen and my entire life was invested in boy bands lol. The older I get the more I prefer bigger, brawny types… Continue reading What person most people want to smash but you pass?

How do you chug a beer in one go? As far as I can see, there are two ways. First is fast chugging and the second is to gravity chug. The first one I can do but I struggle with the second one.

what is the most annoying/interesting thing your pets have done?
I have to say that the most interesting thing my pets have done is forming a secret alliance to steal my snacks. And the most annoying thing they’ve done is constantly meowing for food, even though their bowls are still half full. But hey, at least they’re cute enough to get away with it.
What is the biggest plothole you have come across?
Not the biggest, but one that always bothered me is in the movie “the rock”. When they are entering Alcatraz from beneath, there’s a metallic door and some sort of furnace spewing flames.

For example: I want to go to the island of Socotra, Yemen It’s a unique climate and terrain that hosts several types of endemic plant and animal species, like several types of tree and small creatures and birds. It just so happens that these trees are some of the wildest I’ve ever seen in my… Continue reading What weirdly specific location is at the absolute top of your “to visit” list and why?
How did you accept / Have you accepted that your life didn’t turn out how you thought it was going to happen?
I always got high grades and was told I had a bright future. I planned on going into education, and moving to a city somewhere.

Those of you following the Alex Murdaugh trial, what makes you think Alex is guilty or not guilty? What evidence do you find the most compelling?
But there is also not a lot tying him to the crime. Don’t get me wrong, he is a despicable human being. Between his financial schemes and taking the settlement money from his dead housekeepers family, he makes me sick. I just don’t know if the prosecution has done an adequate job of proving he… Continue reading Those of you following the Alex Murdaugh trial, what makes you think Alex is guilty or not guilty? What evidence do you find the most compelling?
What is the worst place to ask for dating advice?
Just redit in general, you get the extreme and nothing in the middle, at least from what I have seen, it’s always forgive them and move on or break up immediately, and everyone has to diagnose either the op or the partner with something.
Are we alive before getting into the egg? If not, why?
Alive, yes. Your living cells can trace an uninterrupted line back all the way to the beginning of life on Earth. But being alive is not the same thing as being a “person,” which I think is maybe what you mean. While the subject is debated, the traits of personhood as demonstrated through behavior (as… Continue reading Are we alive before getting into the egg? If not, why?
What’s your opinion on whether or not “dawn” and “don” rhyme?
For me, they don’t. But I’m sure there’s some regional accent where they do. I got into an argument on Reddit a few years ago who insisted that “eagle” doesn’t rhyme with “seagull.” It was quite contentious.
What do you think about airlines requiring fat people to buy two seats if they can’t fit?
I think anyone who has sat next to a person who overflows into their seat understands why airlines have this policy. It sucks for the overweight person, but that person needs to purchase enough space to not inconvenience or harm other paying customers.

Redditors who’ve been forced to leave a bar by management- what happened?

What can you do if you’re jealous of attractive people?
What is “attractive” really? It’s more or less a matter of perspective. Anyone who would judge you on something like that is not worth having any sort of relationship with. True beauty comes from within 😊
What made you ponder if people can tell that they’re going to die?
My grandfather took everyone out to eat the day before he died. He was real sentimental about it, which was unusual for him. He was pretty rough around the edges.

You don’t, you learn to accept that there are things wrong with you. Some of those are fixable and many are not. It’s not that you are who you are in spite of your flaws, you are who you are because of those flaws.
dog owners, what is the dumbest thing your dogs ever been afraid of?
Her hearing is whack, so it’s always a crapshoot as to what noises scare her. Most interesting contrast so far is that she can sleep happily through fireworks, but if someone’s ankle cracks while she’s asleep she’ll jump up and be halfway across the room before she realized she’s awake.

Pretty much all of them. “Thou shall not kill” doesn’t leave room for things like self defense, and is therefore bullshit.

How are the mentally-ill supposed to get the help they need if their condition makes them unemployable, but mental health services cost money?
We aren’t. Simple. Same can be said about disabled people in most countries, how are we meant to live when work is inaccessible or dangerous but if we rely on the government we are shunned at best or straight up can’t get married or are starved out. Most places don’t want the sick and underprivileged… Continue reading How are the mentally-ill supposed to get the help they need if their condition makes them unemployable, but mental health services cost money?

What is faster? The speed of light or the expansion of the universe?
No one knows. No one knows what the speed of light actually is. We can only measure it by taking two trips, not one. So if there is a variation in those two trips, the speed measure isn’t accurate. It’s an assumption we make because it’s impossible to physically measure the speed of light.

Breaking up was the best worst thing we ever… Continue reading People who were in a long serious relationship that ended abruptly, how did that impact you?
What is the best pizza topping and why?
I think it’s hard to argue against Pepperoni. Yes, I love mushroom, yes I love jalapeno, yes I love almost every topping. But Pepperoni by itself can sell an entire pizza to most people by itself.

The double slit experiment.

The Lord of the Rings movies directed by Peter Jackson are generally considered to be faithful adaptations of J.R.R. Tolkien’s books, but there are some differences between the two.

why do you think Netflix cancels so many good shows?
Because the business model sucks. They get a fixed income from all the subscriptions. Making a good show doesn’t add to their income, so it’s far easier to buy or rent rights to existing shows.

When you zone out, where do you usually go?
It really depends on my mood. Sometimes I’ll let my mind wander to a place I’ve been before, like a beach or a mountain, or I’ll imagine a place I’ve never been, like a tropical rainforest or a castle in the clouds. Other times, I’ll just close my eyes and try to clear my mind… Continue reading When you zone out, where do you usually go?
What is the absolutely smallest hill you are willing to die on?
Deep dish pizza is a perfectly acceptable food, and the fact that its so universally despised on the internet just because of one Jon Stewart skit is ridiculous. Yes, we get it, lot of sauce. Now shut up and let people enjoy it.
What is the biggest social problem facing America today? Why?
Politics Because political echo chambers have created inaccurate generalizations about what “the other side” wants and thinks. It doesn’t help that compromise in politics has completely disappeared, and is now viewed as a negative, instead of what it actually is… A means for incremental progress. There is now an expectation that if you aren’t getting… Continue reading What is the biggest social problem facing America today? Why?
Who’s your most hated family member and why?
My grandma. Always used to say my mother wasn’t sick, just looking for attention. Didn’t even show up to the cremation. How are those ashes doing with all that goddamn attention grandma?

What would the world be like, if the average person was more intelligent?
Probably not all that different, to be honest. Look at the state of discourse now – many of those people you look at and go, “god, what idiots,” are also fully functional – often even somewhat successful – human beings who simply believe some silly things. Intelligence isn’t some magic armor against bad ideas.
Trans men of reddit who take testosterone, when you get HRT blood work for the first time, can they review the nicotine content in your blood?
Depends on the test they administer. Different docs will administer different tests. More than likely, no, they will not look for nicotine. This question, by the way, is probably better suited for a trans focused subreddit. Also, maybe you should quit nicotine if it’s something you’re concerned your doctor will find out about.

We don’t say things the same way every time, and involve different tasks every time. He’s… Continue reading What abnormal thing does your pet do?
If you have one, what is your opinion on Jim Carrey?
He’s great. He’s a uniquely talented performer. No one should be criticized for doing silly stuff for a paycheck: the paychecks were good when he was in his comedy phase. Even today, Dumb&Dumber has some good laughs to offer. And his dramatic performances were good as well. Truman Show is a must-watch banger for everyone.

For me personally it was in Jr. high. She was short, long curly hair, witty with a beautiful smile and a huge smart ass. To this day I still consider her the one that got away.

I see more benefits to believing in a God than not believing in one. I dont believe in any religions God but I do sometimes pray to God. Sometimes it’s nice to feel like a higher power could care about me, because I do feel powerless and lost many times.

American here. I don’t know of anyone who has had anything good to say about Russia or its leaders. Most people are some combination of horrified and really pissed off about the invasion.

How do you become comfortable with yourself?
By realizing you’re the only you you’ve got, and knowing your discomfort often comes from a fear of the way others perceive you. Then recognizing that their perception doesnt matter.

What once favorite restaurant franchise do you remember going downhill the most in your lifetime?
McDonalds was one of our fast-food staples when I was a kid. It was never fine dining, but every one I’ve been to in the last few years has barely edible food and the facility is in shambles. No other place seems to have declined as badly in my observation.

Einstein, I just think he has a fascinating mind, he thought and read in pictures like me and it’d probably be fun to have a conversation with someone who not only thinks and sees things like me but is also incredibly smart, unlike me.

How do you split college summer housing costs with roommates that aren’t going to be living in the house?
If no one lived in the house during the summer, would we be charged still for any utilities such as electric even though we aren’t there? In this case wouldn’t they be getting off on less expenses than normal if no one was at the house.
How did you deal with the loss of a pet?
You just deal with it, as uncreative as that sounds. Its a painful experience, but it is an unfortunate part of being a pet owner: you spend as much time with them as possible when they’re around and then appreciate their life when they’re gone. This mentality can extend to friends and family who have… Continue reading How did you deal with the loss of a pet?

But I loved him so I took a deep breath and scraped… Continue reading What is the grossest thing you had to do for someone that you love?
What’s something that scares you about the future?
The culture as whole is tearing itself apart on the back of social media. Adding rapidly advancing AI is concerning as well. Not because I think it will go all Terminator, but because AI is programmed by someone.

People who wear their shoes inside the house, why?!
Sometimes I just find it reasonable and efficient. It’s not like my shoes are particularly filthy. I don’t have carpet and clean my floors often enough, and don’t really touch them with my hands or mouth, so it’s probably not a big deal.
People who begin every sentence with ”so” , why?
So, when I speak I’m not too sure what I am going to say. So, I typically start my sentences with the word so since it helps me figure out what I want to say.

In your opinion, what do you think the real purpose of life when in the end we just die? Do you believe we exist for a reason or just because of chances?
My attitude is that we essentially “just exist” but determine our own purpose. I see the argument that we don’t matter in the grand scheme of things and everything is pointless. However, I choose to believe that me being a good influence to family and friends and developing my hobbies does matter. In five hundred… Continue reading In your opinion, what do you think the real purpose of life when in the end we just die? Do you believe we exist for a reason or just because of chances?

Typesetting, if that’s the correct word. A hyphen isn’t a dash, and an ellipsis is its own symbol (…) not three full stops (…).
What’s your favourite King of the Hill episode?
Someone asked about South Park episodes, and I wanted to know what KOTH episodes people enjoy the most.

What is the difference between Freedom and Liberty?
I think they’re technically synonyms. In effect, though, I view it like this. Freedom will exist regardless of the place, government, or really any sort of externalities.

Liberty is… Continue reading What is the difference between Freedom and Liberty?

You’re put inside a horror film, what’s the first thing you would do?
Is it a horror film before Jordan Peele hit the scene or after? Because the survival rate of black men in horror films has gone up considerably since then. I might not even have to do a lot. I might try my luck and have sex instead of worry about the killer. Chances are I’m… Continue reading You’re put inside a horror film, what’s the first thing you would do?
South Park or Family Guy? And why?
I like them both in different ways tbh. I like South Park for the characters while I like Family Guy because of how dumb the writing is.

Who needs to stfu already?
My dad, it’s always about him and nobody else, if it’s not about him it’s “your lazy” or “get out if you don’t want to contribute to the family.” I’ve been working the entire weekend carrying drinks for people and their screaming kids and just want to enjoy my day off, is that too hard… Continue reading Who needs to stfu already?

You are now President of the United States, what do you do?
I would get access to all the secret things I have ever wanted to know, or which have been kept from me, which I suspect is something that runs so deeply that it would boggle the mind. Of course, whether the President has access to all such things is doubtful.

What philanthropic org is literally a scam to evade tax?
Almost anytime you hear a celebrity or rich person announce a charitable donation, it is on the recommendation of their tax accountants/money managers.

I had a fairly wealthy friend. He owned huge properties and wouldn’t think twice about buying a car he likes.

None, seriously do you think if a natural plant/herb was more effective than products that a trillion dollar industry that spends billions of dollars annually they would not have found it themselves tested it and either refined or marketed it?

Im a woman who owns a few corsets and waist cinchers. Corsets i only use for costumes, but I wear waist cinchers often since they look cool.

Wellington, NZ, specifically the Matairangi/Mount Victoria area. I moved there from the UK when I was very unhealthy and unhappy.

What’s your favorite genre of music and favorite songs/singers in that genre?
Psytrance is favorite genre. Simon Posford is my favorite composer. He is hands down the single greatest living composer of my life time. He is the Chopin of this generation.

What’s the most dangerous thing you’ve done?
As a shortcut to my friend’s house on the other side of a wide river near where I grew up: I’d walk across an expansive railroad trestle bridge that spanned the river. At any moment, a freight train could come along – and the drop to the river far below would’ve been a life-threatening jump.

I used to be really passionate and fairly decent at drawing / painting. My confidence and self esteem has gradually plummeted as I’ve gotten older though.

The video game store my brother worked at. Other than the boss he was the only employee, so he pretty much had free reign over the store.

I think we played Perfect Dark like three… Continue reading What out of business store do you miss the most?

If you can meet your past self what advise would you give him ?
Don’t regret spending time with your older relatives. Please take every moment you can with them, because you cannot reverse time.

What type of kid/group of kids do you don’t like/hate?
The common response is spoiled, as they don’t find value in sentimental things for example. But for me, it’s the ones that straight up don’t respect other human beings. It’s one thing to not like someone because they did xyz, it’s another to be a complete AH to strangers just because

What’s something u regret the most in life?
I could say not taking chances with various girls/women throughout my life when I had the opportunities to, but instead I’ll say hurting someone and not realizing that she was still here even after she said that she was leaving and not making things right with her when I had the chance to!!!

How can one say “I’m just working here to pay my bills” without actually sounding like it?
Honestly? You can’t. Any variation of that phrase comes off to employers as, “I don’t care about my job!” You’re better off just lying and saying that you “are passionate about the company’s values” or some other shit like everyone else does. Don’t worry – no one else actually means it, either.
What is something you have noticed that someone else is blind to?
How bad they smell. Whether it’s from smoking, bad breath, or BO, some people just can’t tell how bad they smell themselves.

Say a how to make a bomb video is posted to Youtube. If a person uses that vid to create a bomb and commit a terrorist attack, is Youtube partially at fault? That’s what Gonzales v. Google is. As for Susan, no clue why she stepped down.
what’s your thoughts on ordering food for whole group?
My girlfriend wanted me to order for her on our anniversary date. I did and the waitress looked at us as if I was abusing her, and was constantly asking her if she was sure that’s what “she wanted”. So maybe it’s good in practice, but in execution you might get some funny looks these… Continue reading what’s your thoughts on ordering food for whole group?

How can you feel more confident taking non-edited iPhone selfies using the front camera ?
Look up comparisons of unedited versus edited photos. R/instagramreality is one of my favorites. It just makes you realize how altered so much of what you see is. Other than that, use good lighting like natural lighting, figure out which angles and poses make you feel nose confident.

Winston Churchill would have a humorous on-screen presence akin to Biden, as he was known for his witty one-liners and humorous anecdotes. Churchill’s charm, wit, and intelligence would make for a delightful Biden-like presence on camera.
What’s more toxic? Going through someone’s phone or catching them doing something in the process?!
In the general sense, going through someone’s phone is more toxic. It does occasionally happen that someone gets caught doing something even more toxic in this way, but it has to be really impressive to beat that: most minor offenses, and frankly even some dealbreakers, don’t.
Do you believe in extraterrestrial life, and if so, what do you believe it looks like?
I would honestly expect extraterrestrials to resemble Earth animals overall. We evolved into the bodies we’ve got now because they’re pretty convenient for our environment. Humans have two legs because it allows for a roomier birth canal, to accommodate those big bloated brainy heads. And we have a digestive tract to accommodate different kinds of… Continue reading Do you believe in extraterrestrial life, and if so, what do you believe it looks like?

What’s the most bizarre item you’ve found in a thrift store or second-hand shop?
I’m honestly convinced these thrift YouTubers fake most of it. Such garbage at the ones in my area. Even when they open. It’s like the employees take anything of value before it hits the shelves.
What’s the story of your shitty therapist?
She wanted to talk about Jesus all the time. I should have known what was up when she scheduled all of our sessions in a church. I got a new therapist and things got better.

What do you remember about having substitute teachers while you were in school?
They would write their name on the chalkboard and teach us how to pronounce it. Then it would all be pretty cool until it was time for lunch and they didn’t know the exact procedure.

What made you change your political opinions?
As I got older, I would debate more and more as a centrist. I believed (and still do often) that there is always a lot of grey area when it comes to most issues. However, far left leaning people (women most often) would either scream at me, tell me I’m horrible, claim I was ignorant… Continue reading What made you change your political opinions?
What does everyone seem to love, but you hate?
Is Pokemon hentai? Yugi-oh? Digimon? That’s the problem is that you are lumping an entire medium into one genre and that genre don’t even cover even a small fraction of the entirety of the medium. That’s like saying you hate all TV shows because there’s reality TV.

WWIII. Do you think all these chemical fires are random? All these objects being shot down? The two prophets at the Wailing Wall in Israel right now? The time has come. Make your priorities right.
What if AI became real? Should we be amazed at such an accomplishment, or panic at the possibility of a real life Skynet or Ultron?
I think it’s going to cheapen the human experience. Art, music, political speeches, advertisements, best man toasts, even death notification’s will all one day be AI generated. Something that can’t even begin to grasp the colossal significance of the task will be creating the communicative medium.
If you got a job making fortune cookies, what would the first one say?
There’s this lady who kept calling my phone at stupid o’clock. The first time I was polite, the second time I asked her to please fix her phone listing and she was super rude.

What’s up with all the “slob-shaming” on Reddit? Should living messy be considered a lifestyle choice and a part of individual freedom?
Messy is one thing. Slob kind of strongly implies actually dirty or unhygienic, and egregiously lazy about cleaning. Leaving some papers around doesn’t make you a slob. Not washing your clothes or dishes or leaving dog shit on your floor does. I’m not into shaming people, but that is something I’d not want in a… Continue reading What’s up with all the “slob-shaming” on Reddit? Should living messy be considered a lifestyle choice and a part of individual freedom?
Would you ever start doing your hobby as a job? Why or why not? Do you think it would ruin the enjoyment?
Yes. I would. It may ruin some of the enjoyment, sure. But at least I’d have a job that I hold a passion for.

Better than needing to work a job with no passion from the start,… Continue reading Would you ever start doing your hobby as a job? Why or why not? Do you think it would ruin the enjoyment?

Because that would be wasteful of resources, invasive to people’s privacy who didn’t request one, spread the false notion that the majority of paternities are questionable and just generally a bit weird. If you want a paternity test get one.
What’s the most memorable moment you’ve had while gaming with friends?
Playing GTA sa multiplayer and he had this police skin for his character and we were trying to steal a police car, I got in and then he was dragged out, like a scuffle happened and after th confusion we drove off. And I then realised the NPC was driving me around not him.
How do you find peace with the inability to change the past?
Positive Nihilism. On a long enough timeline, nothing on the scale of any given individual objectively matters. You, me, and everyone else just aren’t important enough to be bothered with. That goes both ways, though. Sure, people will almost instantly forget our daily triumphs, but they are just as likely to forget our failures. You… Continue reading How do you find peace with the inability to change the past?
What is your favorite paradox and why?
The intolerance one. To build a tolerant society accepting of all people (to an extent), you have to be extremely intolerant of those who aren’t. It makes perfect sense, it’s just neat to think about at length
What is the worst freak accident you’ve ever heard of?
I drove an ATV into an electric fence that I didn’t see. It caught me on the neck and luckily it snapped and broke, or else I probably wouldn’t have a head right now. I had marks on my neck for weeks that looked like I tried to hang myself.

The doctors said nothing is wrong with my throat so I’m starting to… Continue reading How can drinking from straws affect swallowing posture and face development?
What’s the craziest thing salvia made you see?
My salvia experience was surprisingly lame. Every time, I just kept getting sucked into my bed, like a never ending fractal that I could not escape from, try as I might. My mom got to go to outer space and see a freaking Merkaba though, and collapsed in a fit of cry laughter. Lucky duck… Continue reading What’s the craziest thing salvia made you see?
People who watch a lot of gore, what’s the the absolute worst video you’ve seen?
I don’t watch a lot of gore, but there was this one video I saw on instagram a while back where a man accidentally fell on train tracks as a train went by and his top half spun around a couple times while his bottom half stayed still. Still gives me nightmares.

If you’re the type of person that would sign up to go to Mars knowing you’d have to die there, why would you go?

If an individual is released from prison after the person who accused them of rape confesses/found by court that the accusation was false, should the accuser face the same legal consequences or serve the same sentence the accused get for making a false accusation?
I think it should be worse. It wasn’t just jail time, it was a permanent stain in someone’s life. Emotional trauma, loss of reputation, legal expenses, loss of job (I guess) and consequential unemployability….and loss of credibility for all the people who were actually victim of abuse. The punishment has to be fair.
What was your first idea on how babies were born?
I knew they came from the mother somehow but I didn’t know how sex worked. I ended up seeing “mating” by watching our chickens fuck on our farm, and my dad explained fertilization but left out the sex part. Then shortly later in middle school they explained it in Sex Ed.

I want to see Leonardo DiCaprio standing-spoon Kate Winslet on the North Tower of the World Trade Center. Then when the building collapses, a perfectly aerodynamic door can glide them both to safety, but for some reason Leo opts to fall.

Parents of Reddit who had a child with a partner they dislike- how did you manage to deal with them for your child? Did things work out between you?
He’s a deadbeat who opts to not see his child often, although it has varied over the years. I set firm boundaries w him, don’t badmouth him to our kid, and my fiance sets a wonderful example of what a dad can be. Overall I’m luckier than most.

When will people realize we’re never going to get rid of Guns in the U.S.?
No one thinks that we’re going to rid the US of guns; there are too many and there are Constitutional protections. What people think – or hope – will happen is making it harder to buy guns without a background check; to ban assault weapons; to make it more difficult for young people to access… Continue reading When will people realize we’re never going to get rid of Guns in the U.S.?

I went to art school and took a class called “liberal arts math” it was the only time in my life I felt like I knew what I was doing in a math class.

How can you politely and respectfully interrupt someone who tends to talk excessively while in a bar setting?
You just have to cut them off. When they put a period on one of the sentences you jump in front of their next sentence and you start talking. It’s likely a loud/chaotic bar setting, so don’t be afraid to turn up your volume a bit and talk louder than them. If they increase volume,… Continue reading How can you politely and respectfully interrupt someone who tends to talk excessively while in a bar setting?

What is an immediate red flag that someone is not to be trusted?

What can explain the D in Fridge but not in Refrigerator?
It makes it scannable by native English speakers, who would be tripped up by “frig,” and go a completely different direction.

If we have the state of Texas, what should we do to move it to its real government, Mexico?

Question for the Trans community. what’s the opinion on hogwarts legacy and who deserves the hate? The devs, the people who play it or all it the above?
JKR deserves the hate for being a TERF. The devs deserve the hate for the blatant antisemitism in the game.

Redditors who’ve lost family/friends, what were their last words to you?
My dad, the day before he passed away he said to me that he was worried. I never asked why he was worried, which haunts me to this day. Instead, I said don’t worry dad, everything is OK.

people who work with AI or new technologies, do you believe that it is only a matter of time before we live together with human robots? Why?
depends how you define living. If people have resorted to living their lives on social media or in virtual environments, what’s to say that we aren’t already living with robots?

You need a licence to marry, to drive, to work in many industries, to operate heavy machinery, to operate a boat, etc, but any fool can decide to be a parent.

What is the most effective way to bridge political divides and promote positive dialogue?
Focus on what unites us and not what separates us. Instead of saying we want universal health care.

Personally, I had a pretty serious operation on my buttocks that was seen by doctors, surgeons, nurses, medical students, dressing clinics and their proteges, the amount of people in a year long period was…baffling.

What are the best subreddits for funny videos of people getting hurt?
I check sub’s like criticalblunders, crazyfuckingvideos, whatcouldgowrong, winstupidprizes, hadtohurt and idiotsnearlydying, but they’re all so repetitive and usually just cross posts of each other interlaced with a lot of fights, road rage and murders… I just wanna watch funny videos of people wiping out, are there any other sub’s like these out there?

What brings you most inner peace and happiness in your life?
For me, inner peace and happiness come from spending time with my family, helping others, and getting out into nature.

My school had something like this I think. An app that showed what your grade was as teachers graded assignments.

I would be pretty freaked out! It’s like something out of a horror movie. I’d probably back away slowly, then run and grab a weapon just in case. Then, I’d take a deep breath and look closer to see if the face is actually real or if it’s just my imagination playing tricks on me.
Which is your favourite sitcom of all time?
I Love Lucy; maybe not the best sitcom of all time, but it ran the four-minute mile and set the bar for every show after it. It also pioneered the three-camera setup, which until recently reigned supreme, as well as syndication, shooting on film instead of kinescopes, and a live audience.

What’s the best way to realistically overcome a fear of heights?
I wonder if you can. Fear of heights isn’t exactly an irrational fear that can be “logic’d” away. It’s a pretty rational, legit fear because of real consequence. There is some degree of risk to any height so I think it might be hard to overcome. That’s my totally uneducated guess.

Banged married women knowing full well they were married.

I think the term you are looking for is involuntary resignation. You have to resign from your position due to the unreasonable work environment. But ya know, double check with lawyers and your governments definition if you are looking for something concrete

What’s the most creative way anyone has ever made you lose the game?
Learning that “The Game” is actually a metaphor for the actual literal reality we live in.

That each one of… Continue reading What’s the most creative way anyone has ever made you lose the game?
What is the most important lesson you have learned in life so far?
Not everything needs a response. Your silence can be just as powerful as your words.

You’ve given me a lot to think about.” Sometimes… Continue reading What is the most important lesson you have learned in life so far?

gas stations workers or people that work at some point in highways in the middle of nowhere, how is it? any good story?
Working at a gas station in the middle of nowhere is like being on the edge of civilization. You get to meet all sorts of interesting people – truckers, travelers, and locals.

I once… Continue reading gas stations workers or people that work at some point in highways in the middle of nowhere, how is it? any good story?
Has TikTok enhanced your life, made it worse or just hasn’t had an impact? Why?
I can relate to some extent but on another front, do you think it has allowed for some inspirational and down to earth people emerge in support of other people?

Veterans of Reddit/Internet: What’s the biggest change you have seen in reddit and/or internet communities?
It seems the veteran was looked down on for a while, while employers solely focused on minority and LGBT communities.

Which celebrity personally gives you the creeps and why?
Oh man, the celebrity that gives me the creeps is definitely Justin Bieber. His music just feels so manufactured and soulless.

He’s like a creepy robot… Continue reading Which celebrity personally gives you the creeps and why?

If you’re talking about ways to meet people and a man says “you could also do sports. But that doesn’t seem to be your thing” looking you up and down, how should this be taken?
I think this depends on the context and tone of the comment. If it was said in a condescending way or with an intent to belittle you, then it should be taken as rude and dismissive. However, if it was said in a friendly and encouraging way, it could simply mean that he noticed you… Continue reading If you’re talking about ways to meet people and a man says “you could also do sports.

I feel sorry for anyone in that situation. “Follow orders or we’ll your family/turn off electricity/gas/stop food rations” it’d brutal. You should check out people who’ve escape North Korea and they explain how everyday life is there. It’s not fun.
What do you do for dating apart from going out for a meal?
I’m not a huge fan of the traditional dinner-and-a-movie date, so I like to mix it up. I’m all about finding activities that give us something to talk about, like mini golf or bowling. That way, we can have fun and get to know each other at the same time. I also like going on… Continue reading What do you do for dating apart from going out for a meal?

Noam Chomsky constantly exposes US devious plans, to the public. How is he still alive ?
Honestly the USA has never been subtle about its evil. I mean shit, they got away with Cambodia no problem.

Passed Weird Al at a Barnes and Noble once. Didn’t want to be that person who wants a selfie or anything. I just let him be. He had a show in town that night. Checked out.

Well, it would be pretty funny to see everyone walking around like bobbleheads, but I don’t think it would be a good thing for our lives.

Salty, musky, mildly stinky. Americans are so obsessed with fake smells it makes me sick. They dump a chemical bath in the shower.

How did you learn to stop caring what others think?
Honestly, when I spent a lot of time with a friend who didn’t care what others think. I’d always ask her “what if they think this?”, “what if I look like that?”, etc. She’d always say “who cares??”. It just drilled it into my head and her confidence was a great influence

I regret selling my Gibson Les Paul the most. It was my baby, and had a sound that was like a warm hug. I used it for every recording session and live show, and it felt like an extension of me.

What follically-challenged male celebrity has embraced it and does the best job of making baldness look good?
I’d have to say Jason Statham. He’s made baldness look cool and he rocks it with confidence. He’s like a modern day Bruce Willis, but with a lot more swagger. Plus, the fact that he doesn’t have any hair makes him look even tougher. It’s like he has nothing to hide!
Why did they put a trans character into hogwarts legacy?
I think the trans character in Hogwarts Legacy was included to represent an important part of our society.

Inclusivity is becoming more and… Continue reading Why did they put a trans character into hogwarts legacy?
What would happen if everyone who’s asked a dumb question on Reddit suddenly died?
If everyone who asked a dumb question on Reddit suddenly died, it would be like the world’s biggest game of “telephone” went silent.

I’ll never stop liking video games as a whole. But I’ve definitely fell out of love with some games, and usually it has to do with the player base. Some games have some downright shitty people playing it.
What do you think about Canada’s euthanasia law? What are some instances you could understand someone choosing this?
The right to die with dignity is an important one, but euthanasia would so hard to legislate because how would you ever be able to know someone wasn’t being coerced or have the capacity to truly make the decision, especially in cases of mental health or when an (elderly) relative feels like a burden.
Who is the worst person you know and how did they earn that title?
A coworker of mine was super racist, self centered, very immature, and just over all super trashy.

He used his dead cousin’s photos because “he was sexier”. I was too stunned to speak, so when we brought me (literally brought me) to the cafe it took me a while to come to my senses.

Americans of Reddit, Isn’t there a dichotomy between racism/homophobia in the South and Southern Hospitality? Where does Southern Hospitality come from?
It’s hard for me to say. Especially nowadays, America is so diverse across entire areas, that it’s night and day even an hour away.

It’s good, I hope it’ll reset the housing prices as I’ll never be able to afford a house if we keep on the current trajectory and few governments seem keen on doing anything about it due to the prevalence of the real-estate market as an investment
