Before we figured out tools and became apex predators we were prey animals… we’re SUPPOSED to be nervous and scared because that’s what kept us alive. Some people have speculated that this is why in aggregate humans are prone to being spiteful, destructive, bored, and shitty

I could be a racist piece of shit and drop the n word. If a black person then turns around and calls all white people racist pieces of shit, we’re both bigots

Except… 2 people being assholes when the power dynamic is still very stilted is NOT a level playing field. Context matters. You’re not some enlightened sigma with this hot take.

Suffer a few generations of systemic oppression and you might get the parity you think you have

Yeah, they’re fine for what they are, but I’ll take that over shitting myself inside out by eating wheat

Domino’s hates selling smalls

Yet that’s the only size they sell their gluten free pies in. I rarely buy from there (my kid considers it a treat) but I hate paying $15 for plain 10" gf pizza that’s mid at best

Kinda shitty that Dominos has it set up so that tip is calculated on top of the delivery and service fees. Tipping on the value of food, I understand. Tipping on the cost of those other fees is double dipping and bad faith in my opinion.

Seriously, “y’all charged me a service fee to deliver my food? Cool! Let me tip you for that!”

Having done time in the service industry, I have no problem tipping where it’s warranted, but you’re tipping the Dominos corporation for their fuckery at that point, not the driver

It’s even more fun as Christopher Walken

The first one is just about some folks who like cars stealing DVD players

Not even… CRT TV/VCR combos

If it’s your interest, why not? People buy all sorts of stupid shit. At least my expensive, stupid shit keeps me in shape.

My road bike and mountain bikes aren’t even top tier and both individually coast twice that. A new, tricked out Moots or SWorks is $15k.

A $4k eBike can replace your car and save tons more in the long run

I work at a bike shop. This is the main reason why we refuse to service cheap, direct to consumer bikes. Plus, most use non standard parts, underpowered brakes, etc. They’re non serviceable death traps

I feel terrible for that guy. Sadly most consumers don’t know. They see one bike that’s $1200 while most are $4000+ and they think they’re getting a deal

Japan is another world. When I was traveling there, I remember seeing dots on the highways so as to space your interval with the car in front of you. Another person in my group started laughing because that would be ignored in the US but the guy driving was confused and couldn’t fathom not following that rule. He was like, “why wouldn’t you do that?”

This

(I’m so sorry. I couldn’t resist)
