Snapchat A Titty posted:Many European countries have a state-run channel(s). They're usually partially paid for by a national TV license. Basically anybody who owns a TV in the country pays the state X money every year, and those money are used to support the state channel. They can't tell though, OP. You can have a TV and just say you don't if the license dudes show up. At least in Scandinavia they don't have the right to enter your house. Do those TV-detector vans actually detect anything, or are they purely for show?

Nuebot posted:Deer are actually kind of terrifying. But since it's deer it's always kind of hilarious when they gently caress up someone's day. I have family who live in the middle of loving nowhere and like once a year the deer just take over their lovely little town and there's not much anyone can do because if you try to shoot them they go nuts and have a deer riot to try and protect their little deer babies and do a lot of property damage. So you just drive through the town and there are deer everywhere watching you. Is "deer" the new dogwhistle term? I haven't been keeping up with Freep lately.

Remember Talia, the starving Yelp girl from the other day? This whole thing is escalating into a wonderful slapfight. Her detractors have dug up some of her recent tweets that don't seem quite consistent with starving to death on rice:  Another detractor has written an open letter to her (consisting mostly of "Bootstraps!" arguments). Opinion pieces are starting to appear on the same theme. Meanwhile, she seems to have gotten word from one of her ex-coworkers that the tide of opinion among Yelp customers is solidly on her side:  Perhaps biggest of all, one of her supporters has set up a GoFundMe for her. The comments on the GoFundMe are stuffed full of people telling her what an entitled little poo poo she is... and now they're getting extra indignant about how much money she's raked in so far:  I don't care whose side you're on, this is getting fun.

FAROOQ posted:College educated white girls who move to san fransisco for customer service work deserve the worst possible interpretation of their actions and intents. Personally I find something to dislike on both sides. Strictly speaking, Talia's detractors are right -- she waltzed right into an obviously-impossible situation and was shocked when it somehow didn't work out. But they're being the screechiest bunch of assholes I've seen in a long time (and I follow politics), and they're acting like they never made a naive mistake when they were fresh out of college. As for Talia herself, it sucks that she landed in that hard-to-get-out-of situation, and I actually hope her newfound Internet fame leads her to something better. But at the same time, I can only laugh at how quickly she glossed over the fact that her evil greedy CEO was giving her free health insurance as a job benefit, and how surprised she was that the company might want her to do the job they actually hired her for (for like a whole YEAR!) before they promote her to her dream job. And I still don't know what she wanted the CEO to actually DO about any of this. Her only real complaint against the company seemed to be "your office is in an expensive city". So yeah, I don't really have a dog in this race, I'm just enjoying the slapfight. v  v

mostlygray posted:Really irritating. I have to ask my wife what color my shirt is and I dress my kids like clowns. I bought a pink shirt once that I swear was white. I have to ask my co-workers what color a thing is and have a huge amount of trouble mixing colors of paint. I have to do it by the numbers and labels. It's not that I see black and white. I'm excellent at yellow, but orange starts getting inconsistent and and red and green look almost the same. In my mind there is a single color called Blue-Purple and I don't differentiate. Serious question -- it's 2016, aren't there any smartphone apps that do this? Point your phone's camera at a shirt or a swatch of paint and it'll tell you if it's "hot pink" or "mint green" or whatever. If there aren't any apps for this, then hey you, the aspiring app developer reading this thread! There's a world of color blind people out there that would probably pay a few bucks for that.

Last year I was in a bicycle crash. I went over the bars and took a direct head impact. I woke up as they were loading me into the ambulance. Looking back at the day or so after the crash, I felt normal at the time but I clearly wasn't quite entirely there, in hindsight. My brain was still rebooting. When I went back to work the next week, I asked my co-workers to please tell me if I seemed... diminished. Or even just different, in a Regarding Henry sort of way. (It turned out I was fine in the long run. Or at least, if I've been rendered newly retarded, no one has had the guts to tell me so.) Although it turned out okay in the end, that concussion was one of the top ten significant events in my life. Just by eyeballing this video, her head impact was as bad or worse than mine. And I was wearing a bike helmet, and so I had an inch of styrofoam around my skull that absorbed a big chunk of the impact energy. I hope she's okay.

Nuebot posted:What is it with orange cats? Every story I've heard of a strange cat just wandering into someone's house and sleeping on their bed, and the one time it happened to me, has been an orange cat. What on earth instills that compulsion into them? An orange neighbor cat once crashed a big Halloween party I was throwing. It was a warm enough night that we left the back door open, and he just wandered in, made himself at home, and accepted pettings and head-scritches from all the partygoers. (He didn't try to move in though; he left when the party wound down.) The next day I brought my own cat home (I'd left him with my mom for the evening), and after he'd sniffed around a bit, he was furious with me, I guess for cheating on him with another cat. Didn't speak to me for days.
