Why weren’t any of us invited? Fucking selfish, bro.

Well, I disagree. I didn’t touch Reddit for a year and finally went back about a month ago.
• THE ADS. Fuck me, the ads now!
• The corporate plug-ins. I had a legit, verified business comment on my post and then PM me after it.
• The videos freeze more often than makes me comfortable clicking on them.
• The pop-up trash now; “follow this”, “click here”, “did you know”, “ICYMI”. The U.I looks like Yahoo’s home page now.
Is it dying? I don’t know. Is it exhibiting every square inch of desperation, turning the corner from what was once cool, to what is now every pixel monetised and sponsored? Yup!
If you stick it out here for long enough, three things will change.
When I’m hanging out with the lads I like to announce that I’m going for an [insert friend’s name] out of my [insert other friend’s name].
I’ve gotta push a Steve out of my Bradley.
Linux users and vegetarians. Neither can shut the fuck up. Both have made it their identity.
Are you a Linux user?
Hey everyone, shut up! This guy is a Linux user and he’s here to tell us about using Linux.
Piece of shit doesn’t contact piece of shit about piece of shit, shot by piece of shit.
Next.
I was referring to the Bronze Age, urbanisation, and civilisation, genius.
In Australia.
“Got a spare smoke there, bro?”
“No, mate. Sorry.”
“FUCK YOU, YA WHITE CUNT!”
I’ve had this word-for-word interaction probably 100 times this year already.
Why is this so far down?
Bump.
Endlessly eat, shit, fuck, fight, and consume for 5,000 years without any regard for anything but ourselves.
Religion.
You’re all like Star Wars fans to me.
Yeah I truly hope petitions work but everything I’ve ever signed hasn’t done shit. I think petitions are just a way of letting us think we have a voice.
Well, in essence, propaganda is advertising. And advertising leans on satisfying perceived need.
So if I’m selling you shoes it’s to satisfy your physiological, social, or self-fulfilment order need. Shoes are functional, make you cool, or make a statement.
Propaganda is fulfilling some need to be effective - probably fear based in the social, safety, or belongingness orders, and carried via viral channels like word of mouth or social (viral).
I haven’t really thought about it too much but it’s just a communication or a reinforced message; it’s just advertising. Think about it that way.
And with regard to Russia, they are all ‘fear the West’ and ‘national pride’ driven, compounded over 3-4 generations. It would be such an easy spin.
Shit, my guy or gal.
That’s put my mind massively at ease. Thank you for putting the time in.
And yes, behavioural/clinical is exactly the path I’d go down.
Personally, I think every woman should go to jail for keeping her eggs in her ovaries. That’s child imprisonment.
How dare they.
Let’s just call this what it is, and what it will always be until the end of time. Two religions forced to live in a shoebox together.
Religion is to blame, both sides having their fairytale that is incompatible with the other side’s fairytale.
I’m done arguing, fighting, defending or taking sides in any of it. Every ten years we rinse and repeat this bullshit and it’s over nothing more than the fictional stories of two man made books.
And have no illusions, NO MATTER THE OUTCOME here we will be arguing about this same shit again in ten more years.
Aussie subtleties of the c-word.
“Silly Cunt” = funny person (endearing)
“Stupid Cunt” = complete idiot (serious)
“Dumb Cunt” = a good mate acting stupid (jovial)
“This Cunt” = referring to a good mate who’s done/said something uniquely odd (jovial)
“Acting like a Cunt” = acting terribly (serious)
“Don’t be a Cunt” = stop acting terribly (serious)
“Bunch of Cunts” = all your good mates (endearing)
“Good Cunt” = the best compliment you can receive (endearing)
“Dog Cunt” = the worst insult you can receive (get ready to fight)
“Shit Cunt” = insult (serious)
“Bit of a Cunt” = insult (jovial)
I never thought I’d say it, but I don’t even use YouTube anymore. I might go there once a month to watch a tute, but only if I absolutely can’t find help from any other website.
