Clickbait headline articles need to be shocking sounding. Bonus points if they push the narrative that companies are good and us horrible peasant thieves stealing from them are bad.

It's cute that you think I clicked any of those links.

You're super fucking irritating is the point I've been trying to make that you don't seem to pick up on.

So, you're adding extra words to what I said to make it what you want it to say? You should go get a job with one of these amazing clickbait "journalism" outfits like buzzfeed.

Not really what I said at all, but sure.

I used to be what was really good at the time 10 years ago. Going back and playing it now is soul crushing. People got so much better and I got worse... I can't believe anyone new even keeps trying with how punishing it is now.

Yessssss, counterstrike is fucking counterstrike. It hasn't changed in any drastic way in 20+ years. There's plenty of new games that have all the realistic bullshit.

I bought a super base version when they finally released some shit thinking it'd actually come out. That was like 16 maybe? Check in every few years and am always amazed at how little they've got done since the last time. It's obviously vaporware. I hope someone starts a nice class action lawsuit against them. It's fraud at this point.

I believe you. Everyone believes everyone on the internet.

Not exactly what I said. That's about "fake news" I don't think news is fake. I just think it's all horrible shallow click bait with very little decent investigative journalism being done anymore. The article might as well just be the headline now.

True, my point was more about using McDonald's as a measuring stick is a bad call. Like I'd seriously have to think about it if I have to do one or the other for an extended period.

I don't know if it's the way they're sorted or the voting, but the comments sections are well less mind numbingly stupid. People at least make logical arguments and have a point generally. Not a whole bunch of recycled bullshit. On Reddit I could guess with about a 75% certainty what the top comment was going to be before I even opened it.

The US schoolsystems have been brainwashing that shit into the compliant masses for decades. Just look at how the civil rights movement is covered. All about MLK and peaceful marches, sit ins etc. They barely talk about the bombings, the black Panthers carrying guns, the violence constantly done to demonstrators. Push how peaceful it all was.... Laughable.

Nothing changes without disruption. Sit ins have to be where you sit somewhere that messes with people's ability to do business. Protests have to be disruptive. People need to have to push through picket lines and feel uncomfortable doing it. It's easier for things to stay the same. So if you aren't forceful about it, they will.

Espresso to kick the day off, then water the rest of the day. Occasionally some Gatorade to rehydrate.

Oh except for the days I drink so like most days that end in a y. Then anything over 9% alcohol that tastes good.

Food depends entirely on the second part. Healthy home cooked meals with lean protein and lots of veggies, often rice if I'm sober. Horrible unhealthy things go down the food hole when I'm not. If it's fried I will eat it when intoxicated.

Real journalism is dead. Those left beating the corpse only do it for money. He gets them the money.

CNN gave him a fucking Town Hall to scream his lies and bullshit out at people.

Agreed, but after several rewatches it'd be amazing to be able to see it fresh again.

Who hates that movie? I mean if you don't like indie romcoms... It's definitely not your standard Jim Carey flick.

Its a serious problem in our entire criminal justice system. Trump is the post child for the inequality. Charged with 91 felonies and walking around doing as he pleases. Meanwhile this poor guy has been locked up for months without a trial, and may get off with no jail time but he's in jail anyway.

I'd rather get shot than work at McDonald's. Have you worked a low wage customer facing job? Literally anything is better. I'd rather have children kick me in the balls all day.

See, this is more like chaotic evil. Most of this chart is just normal behavior.
