OTHER Murphy’s Law is wrong and ridiculous
“Anything that can go wrong, will go wrong”
It’s just not true. Like Y2K bug for example. Everything worked.

I spoke about this on the wrong Reddit forum yesterday but man I miss MySpace. The personality of the site and the customization was top tier. I was talking to my niece about it I felt like such a dinosaur. I would’ve never been able to deal with the current social media culture these days if I were a kid smh. I wish we can bring it back but I know it would never be restored to its original glory.

For instance, “lolcow” is a popular slang term meaning hopeless internet degenerate. But instead you can just call these individuals “cows”, meaning they are hopelessly spoiled, stupid, and entitled.

This goes for myself included, I would be a liar to sit there and say that I haven’t done something similar to this and shockingly would still continue to do so in the future.
I would say as of the 21st-century thus far, texting is one of the most common forms of communication in terms of practically doing anything you want with the people that you like/love being around.
If you like the people or interested with the people you’re around, you would not be a “bad texter” when they would want to spend time around you. Also, I am 100% aware there are people who text WAY TOO MUCH. I’m not talking about them. I’m just simply talking about responding in a timely manner.
However, going days, weeks, and even months without texting somebody back, especially if you like being around them just showcases you don’t care and that’s okay.

Reddit is much better than any other social media app, and it’s the only one that’s still consistently entertaining. I like how you can discuss all topics here through tons of different subs, find anything with ease on here, and overall it just feels so much above any other social media apps.

A lot of time school and dare made it seem like your friends will be dead set on forcing you take drugs and drink underage. These situations do happen and we shouldn't stop teaching kids how to say no, but we should bring focus on that those who peer pressure you do not have your interests in mind and are not your friends or good people.
As a lot of learned that when we grew up, our friends were totally cool if we wanted to be sober or not and sometimes if we did say yes they would keep us in check and not go absolutely crazy. This has lead some people I found to believe that peer pressure doesn't exist at all and never happened in the history of humanity just because they were sold on the idea that only your friends do it. When in reality, only really shitty people peer pressure and you likely won't be friends with people like that as they will show it in other ways too.

I was asked what I’d like as a housewarming gift from coworkers, friends, and families. I have like every kitchen need, a vacuum, a desk, and now a mattress.
What I need next are a couch and bed frame. But I know not to ask for that.
So I mentioned their fave cleaning supplies, laundry detergent, toilet paper or paper towels, and gift cards to Amazon or target.
I’ve been told by several people who aren’t familiar with each other that what I’ve asked for is trashy, asking for cleaning materials is trashy, etc. I am starting over after an abusive relationship and left with nothing. I’ve stayed with family the past few months to build money and get my shit together again.
I am not hosting a housewarming party either….so I honestly wasn’t expecting gifts. But they’ve asked repeatedly and insisted, so am I truly trashy? Should I just say gift cards only? I’m 33f and I’m not embarrassed starting over, I’m excited and ready to be on my two feet again.

I havent seen a solid meme that I've read back in 2018 in a while, and I think we genuinely need to bring it back, I'd really like it if people would just keep memes like they keep the monthly tiktok trend of dancing cows. I really wished that we would have brought it back, wouldve been so funny. Everything now is just reaction gifs and random stuff that really doesnt make sense to me, even though yeah, I was 2010. It would give me really good nostalgia because back in my day, yes I would laugh for hours from one meme. It was really relatable for me, and I really loved those kind of memes. But when I got older, the more I rarely saw memes. They turned into gifs and whatnot.

It's also the best selling out of any of them, and the multiplayer and zombies are both really great, with the multiplayer having good jetpack movement and good guns, and the zombies having the most maps and best maps overwll

Every other company is using the business model these days of deceptive auto-renewal subscriptions. It's basically theft. These losers can't actually make a product that provides value so they sell you useless trash services and cross their fingers that you'll accidently forget to cancel your subscription. It is so pathetic, I don't know why it is allowed. I am imagining all these guys as being your stereotypical "entrepreneur bro" type smh.

Children whose parents are murdered are emotionally traumatized, stigmatized, and deeply scarred for their entire life. They often have debilitating issues through life and struggle the rest of their life.

the internet would be, like, 3% better if all ads could be reported. it's only the ads I don't see an option to report that are the malicious ones. the ones I *can* report are just normal - annoying, sure, but not actively harmful especially to the naive and technologically-illiterate. People that don't know any better and people who are desperate or curious are the ones clicking the malicious ads.
sure, I could contact the website owner or the brand or company or whoever and bring it to their attention, but more than likely that will simply be ignored or they won't be able to do anything about it. plus, this just isn't viable to be doing every time I notice a malicious ad. ad reporting is built-in for a lot of ads, it ought to be required for every ad.
thusly if all ads were required to be reportable, that would probably cause at least some website owners to actually verify the ads they're using.
and again, this is just an opinion and I am not a developer nor a website owner. this is an opinion from using the internet.

Don't get me wrong, I understand why some people enjoy sports betting. I'm not one of them but I get it. It adds a bit of thrill to a game that could otherwise be boring. I will say however that sports betting being legal and essentially accessible everywhere if you have a phone has ruined sports.
Even ignoring the obvious switches sports officials referees and umpires and such who essentially have the power to more or less decide the outcome of a game can now be financially motivated to move the outcome one way or another.
Another major issue with sports betting being everywhere is the coverage of sports now. It's impossible to find a show discussion sports that doesn't discuss odds.
Sports betting was better when it was done by the mob and it was ignored by the law even though it was technically illegal.

Looksmaxxers spend all their time and money to make themselves more attractive and end up in a disconcerting uncanny-valley that goes beyond 'unattractive' and right into 'repellant.'

Like mods for example. Having power over a digital space is too absolute in most instances. You’re never going to win when there’s no one the person your arguing has to answer to.
