If 2024 was the year of "age verification" let's build on this success and make 2025 the year of height verification. We must develop a consensus about where to draw the line, so that we can finally say "you must be at least this tall to use social media."

You just need to go around the world fast enough that it's always one time.

In a hundred and twenty or thirty years or something, the dollar will have inflated by 1000 times, so a billion dollars then will be equal to a million dollars now. It'll cost a billion dollars for a nice four bedroom house.

But we'll have had a hundred more years to produce anti billionaire propaganda, so a lot of people, especially teenagers, will need it explained to them that being a billionaire isn't so bad now. The Marxist-Leninists will all be saying that Cyborg Bernie Sanders is an evil billionaire, and us reasonable leftists will be explaining that a billion dollars is just what it costs these days to own a residence in your home state and also in DC, which is necessary for working as a senator.

What we'll really need to look out for by then is the trillionaires. Good for nothing parasites. There's no excuse for one person to own a trillion dollars while there are people living on the streets who can't even afford a measly ten thousand dollars for a cheeseburger meal.

He's catholic, so he can't hurt anyone but in self defense, even if he's legally able to do so. The other side of the tracks have many, many people lined up to die.

It's not a crazier idea than most of Kennedy's. Someone should do a study. Or make one up, nobody checks anymore.

Trump wins, he pardons and acquits himself and is empowered to continue his criminal behavior without consequence. If he loses, he faces justice for all the things he’s done.

Do not seize the day. This will startle the day and may cause it to become aggressive and give you a nasty bite.

Instead approach the day calmly without making eye contact, pet it gently, and slowly enfold it in a careful embrace.

If the day shows any signs of resistance to being engaged with, it is likely to turn on you. Back off and return to bed.

Focal length range, Optical quality, Size & weight. Pick two.

Nintendo had 6 years, why now? Can't have free software upstaging new hardware.

If the whole “square peg, round hole” BS was a valid argument for anything, all doors we go through would have to be shaped exactly like our own profile as we pass them.

The reactions to most posts are overwhelmingly negative and critical. Ironically, posts to c/unpopularopinion tend to argue that they agree with the post, and are consequently more supportive.

The less racist a country is, the harder it is to detect enemy spies. #showerthoughts

Tennis uses multiples of 15, but only up to 45, calls other points weird names, then closes a set, which has to be repeated at least 6 times for a separate scoring, with said scoring also needing to be repeated AT LEAST 3 more times, but can be dragged out ad infinitum.

Even table tennis has the decency of using a straight scoring system where 11 points wins a set and 2 sets wins the match.
