Drinking Everclear makes more sense than having a beer.

Makes sense, Nicotine is a mild stimulant. We give soldiers meth today

Hotline Miami, specifically 1 but also 2 every now and then. Not sure if there's been a 6 month period of my life within the past decade where I didn't boot it up at least once

Counterpoint: when I worked at Panda Express, I used to leave fake reviews on our store about how helpful and professional pp_boy_ was because I wanted a raise. Never did it on any accounts attached to my name though.

"Say, Light, why are you always writing in that notebook of yours?... what's it say there... your 'Death Note?'"

The real folk blues

The single most British headline I've ever read

People who dedicate multiple threads to "mods r bad guyz" are worse than the worst power-tripping mod IMO

True. I oftentimes argue in favor of things I disagree with just to hear some good arguments for when I need to advocate for my beliefs other times.

No one should care that much about arguments on the internet.

The oldest Zoomers turn 29 this year.

One of the strangest phenomenon of the obesity epidemic has been the gross infantilization of young, fit adult women as being "teens" just because they don't have the "+10yr perceived age" effect that comes with years of obesity.

Yeah... I'll take the two on the left who aren't dying of heart disease at 35.

Y'know.... you're right

Surely no coincidence that being obese is a gateway to hyperconsumerism anyway. Sugary, fatty, processed snack foods are way more profitable than healthy meals.

Walking around town is free, can't have that. Sit at this computer chair, watch advertisements and play video games instead.

Heart disease at 26? That'll be $2k/month until you die.

Get depressed, buy the meds, never leave your couch, don't fight back, you're the evolution of humanity and - most of all - you are beautiful.

Mans thinks he broke the laws of conservation of mass and that's why he's still fat

Oh yeah I've seen that one many times. Girl shoots her younger brother playing with the loaded gun, panics, then shoots herself and falls to the floor. Video ends with the parents(?) busting through the door screaming. It's a doozy

Because someone pissed in my cheerios and I'm blaming YOU!! 😡😡😡

thus the inevitable occurs. (Emphasis added)

The prerequisite for joining such hyperindividualistic ideologies is the belief that you're better/more important than others, that the work of others can't be depended on ("if you want it done right, you've got to to it yourself" fallacy mindset).

So:

Why do people continue to adopt this seemingly futile approach? It’s akin to watching 5,000 parachutists attempt a failed jump from the Eiffel Tower, only for newcomers to keep trying despite knowing, or perhaps ignoring, the inevitable outcome. Despite the growing pile of mangled bodies at the base of the tower, every day people decide to climb up and try for themselves.

"Well duh, those people failed because they weren't me!"

The catholic church is an international organization though

Good thing we're investing in cost-efficient renewable energies that pay for themselves after like two years, right?
