Anyone remember when you only had so many calling minutes on your cell phone plan?

I was working sales when we started offering unlimited calling plans.

The unlimited plan was cheaper than the old limited plan this one guy was paying for, so I thought he'd be excited to get unlimited calls for $10 less it whatever it was. Nope. He got pissed and stormed out because the UNLIMITED plan, didn't include free nights and weekends.

I tried explaining that UNLIMITED means free ANY time of the day. "Then how come the plan doesn't say 'Free nights and weekends?"

I understand a lot of the time, those cell companies will make something sound better than it really is, but in this case, there really was no downside to switching the plan.

You just can't fix stupid.

And a fantastic way to fall asleep at night!

The answer here is obviously blowjobs, right?

My wife constantly has TV shows running on her phone. She just has Netflix or Hulu on the default settings.

I like going to theaters, but I don't like how much it costs to take my whole family out.

Every few weeks I spend a couple days in All, just in case anything new catches my eye.

Jenny was also the first one I thought of, but how about hooked on phonics? 1 800 ABCDEFG!

I should be offended, but this is just too damn funny.

This again? They said NEW ideas!

I mean, you can keep doing it if you want to, some of uh, them, might not mind it so much.

How do you expect them to remember being in the womb?

Spicy food never has an effect on me once it's done burning my mouth.

Maybe there were a few times that it felt a little spicy coming out, but that's very rare.

"Maybe if I had a chainsaw..." 🤔

Elon just seems like the most out of touch person on the planet.

"Why don't they love it?"

I remember trying to convince my mom that $200 for an SNES is significantly less expensive in the long run than quarters at the arcade. 😂

Just the other day my brother came over and we played OG Bubble Bobble. Two guys over 40 sinking a few hours into an adorable little co-op game. We got to the final boss and called it a night.

I picked it back up the next day, eventually beat that boss and texted my brother to let him know we beat the game.

I had to look up NIMBY. If anyone else is curious, it's: Not In My BackYard!

I'm on the fence here. I won't rule out your claim, as sadism could be a perversion of empathy.

But, I think they recognize and enjoy the suffering BECAUSE they lack empathy, and it's the feeling of power over another that drives them.

The human mind is a messy place, especially when you start analyzing psychopaths.

Because empathy isn't what determines some one's morality

Maybe not entirely, but it's a MAJOR factor.

It's really hard to hurt another person when you feel their pain. I lack empathy for Walmart, and honestly don't care if you steal from them, but I'm going to make problems for you if I catch you creeping around my friend's house, because I'd empathize with their loss.

I'd like to point out that Melvin is part of the online crowd.

Selection bias.

You typically only interact with people who put their children at risk. Someone who doesn't give a shit about their kids is someone who lacks empathy.
