Mmk. Go back to flushing your toilet, picking food off of a shelf, typing on your device to a whole planet, leaving your garbage at the curb and benefiting from medical science like all the rest of the chimpanzees then.

Yup. Often said by people who did things as a child that didn’t realize 90% of the other children weren’t initiating the things they are doing.

“I killed a dog. Cuz you know, I was young”

No. That’s not just ‘being young’. Most kids do not do that kind of thing.

It’s the same syndrome you get from rapists in prison. They think everyone secretly wants to rape and that they are just brave.

I’ve used ‘game changer’ in describing medications in my life.

My game is to not have insomnia.

Rough housing/mucking are container words. Blanket terms that can contain anything including dismissed sexual assault and other poor behaviour that influence children. This is the whole point of why umbrella terms like ‘boys will be boys’ is bad. It helps brush over the plethora of problems inside of these containers instead of address them directly.

The system is still broken. Expecting one or two to fight against a broken system just to prove one cop is good is hardly an argument for cops supporting a system that only rewards corruption. It’s not about giving medals and a pat on a head. It’s about reform.

So long as they benefit from supporting a bad system: they are bad.

I’d slightly change the sentence from ‘and expecting’ to ‘until you get’ (different results) because then you’d have a definition of coercion which is but one technique in how opportunistic manipulators prey on others with the statistics approach. Manipulation is one of the identifiers of NPD and APD.

On the ground level I wouldn’t call predatory salespeople and PUA the opposite of ‘insane’ although that word ‘insane’ has been retired in order to address mental health.

So in essence that definition you called up really is indeed way off when it comes to addressing mental health.

Calling out misinformation meant to prey on customers…you’re not being pedantic. You’re doing us a favor here.

It does exist in the way that chocolate ‘solids’ exist as an element of chocolate. A typical chocolate bar consists of both chocolate solids and cocoa butter. It’s still an element of what you’re eating,

So just cuz you eat ‘chocolate’ because you think you only favor the solids, you’re still eating the butter too in what makes chocolate. It’s like drinking milk products and then getting pedantic over people who use butter as a food even though milk contains some the same elements.

But again this is about stupid hills to die on. And you picked an intolerant and ignorant stance so I guess you technically win in this particular topic.

You don’t need more cities when there’s about 7 times the empty, perfectly functional living quarters for the amount of homelessness.

More houses is not the answer. There are plenty. Making more just make greedy capitalists more fuel.

Use what we got more efficiently.

Yup. Easier to vomit the fire when they are below you.

Clearly, the Americans haven’t met the British or Australians yet when it comes to sarcasm. Or was this just another American touting they are best at everything again?

Speak for yourself, snowflake. The world isn’t a safe place for shitheads to be shitheads. Culpability doesn’t make you a victim.
