That seems like what the real world is. Not to support her theory, but generally if random strangers want my phone for any reason, I'm not going to hand it over thoughtlessly. Being friends presumes something. She's still an idiot.

She's right, we should use those preschool rules everywhere. Hey, Goldman, you're not using that trillion dollars, right? So it's fine if we take some then? Good, thought so. I mean, if you're just going to leave it all in a big pile, you must be finished with it.

Her commentary on the youth of today aside, I was just put-off by the implication that a pre-schooler would be able to evince the larger point she's trying to make when they're still young enough to be in pre-school

Maybe I've just been lucky, but if I've ever had to borrow a phone from a stranger, they were happy to lend it, and in return I didn't walk off with it and handed it back as soon as I was done.

Welp, must be nice to live somewhere where "Lend me your phone" isn't a prelude to someone running away with your phone. Do you often find it hard when you're stuck at a petrol station and just need a fiver to put petrol in your car to go visit your mum who's really ill too?

To end the stupid phone derail, I meant that in the context of "Can I borrow your bedroll and bug spray for a few days? I'm going camping" rather than "Hey dude, gotta make a two-minute call to my buddy. Mind if I use yours?" Nobody borrows someone's activated mobile for a week. Hopefully, end of discussion.

Nothing bad ever happened. goddamnedtwisto posted:Welp, must be nice to live somewhere where "Lend me your phone" isn't a prelude to someone running away with your phone. I basically give myself a weekly ~$5 "give money to somebody who's asking for it and looks like they need it on the street" budget. Worst case scenario, I bought somebody 1/5 of their next gram of crack or something. (I am not googling current drug prices to make that value accurate).

Look at these infants, shamelessly making GBS threads themselves on a daily basis. And do their parents curb this behavior? No, they accommodate it, even encourage it, by cleaning their soiled children and providing them with special pants to poo poo in. Not my America!

Basically a toddler's dream play room. There's this one red car in particular my son really likes playing with, and the last time we went, he drove it around the entire hour and a half we were there. While most of the moms with smaller kids will shadow their kids as they play, my son is old enough now that I can sit on the sidelines and watch. From there I watched a mom whose son wanted to drive the car approach my son repeatedly, saying, "OK, now it's time for you to give him a turn!" Of course he ignored her, and eventually she gave up. There were a million other little cars for her son to drive, including one that was almost identical. Or maybe I would have stepped in at some point. child wanting to use communal toy for part of recreational period after other child has used said toy for a length of time: terror monster socialist selfish demon Edit: my son wanted to play with this one arbitrary toy in particular and no other: what a strong minded individual with huge potential This other kid wanted to play with this one arbitrary toy in particular and no other: freakish fetish monster kid with an unhealthy fixation!!!

Zuhzuhzombie!! posted:Pineapple doesn't make a pizza good you wave riding scum bag. All of America has lovely pizza. Unless you get your pizza from an eatery in Italy that grows each ingredient fresh and is hand-picked daily on site and uses a secret recipe that is guarded by a secret order of Pizza-Illuminati then you have never truly tasted good pizza. Alternatively having a regional pizza dick-waving competition is retarded and every should stop because it's awful.

The only pizza worthy of the name is spontaneously generated at the bottom of a well on the Pitcairn Islands and harvested once a decade by a eunuch descendant of the HMS Bounty. The well is so full of moss that it was nicknamed Little Byrophyta and the pizza is topped with the artifacts of a culture that disappeared before the pyramids were built. Anything else might as well be poop from a butt.

Also Israel should really stop helping the other side by somehow (the image doesn't say exactly how) by blowing up their martyrs. You have to be trying pretty hard not to see the obvious contradictions in that one. In a sane world you could just post the huge disparity in casualties and ask who is the aggressor but the typical response is just "Hamas hides with civilians!" with no though that attacking the hostages makes you the bad guy.

Maybe we can move food chat to the chat thread and keep this one for crazy forwards: I'm always amused by this image in particular, because the person posting it clearly didn't pause to consider that the character espousing their viewpoint is a murderous sociopath.  Or it's double triple meta and it's actually posted to make that exact point. This is some Inception poo poo going down. Mo_Steel fucked around with this message at 02:18 on Jul 30, 2014 |

Ghost of Reagan Past posted:A universe that exists solely in their imaginations. Reminds me of a Holocaust Joke: Moishele walks down the street and runs into Yaakov reading a newspaper. Getting closer he realizes that it's Der Stürmer! "Yaakov", he hollers, "why are you reading that antisemitic rag?" "Oh, come now, Moishele. If I were to read something like Die Rote Fahne, they'd be telling me that poor Jews are being robbed of their savings and their shops are wrecked. In Der Stürmer, on the other hand, we Jews have all the money and are controlling the world! The choice is obvious!"

FuzzySkinner posted:"MOTHERFUCKER!" Reality is whatever they need it to be at the given moment. Last I heard prayer wasn't actually forbidden in public schools, the schools themselves are merely not allowed to force prayer or religious services on the students. Where I went to school there was a separate, optional, religious graduation ceremony and student groups that held prayers and what have you. None of it was compulsory, all of it was during off hours, and nobody gave a poo poo. Religion is not explicitly forbidden in school; what they truly do not like is that the can't force it on the students.

Someone made an interesting comparison that after the 9/11 attacks, fundamentalists all tried to blame it on "pagans", "feminists", 'wiccans" and "homosexuals" They then said it was interesting how those viewpoints were quite similar to those made by those within Al Qaeda and why they did what they did.
