Got_Bent , to nottheonion in 77-Year-Old Man Is Dozing Off in Court & His Supporters Think It's a Masterful Gambit

If I remember, the babies were sliced up and used as toppings on a pedo gay pizza.

Got_Bent , to nottheonion in 77-Year-Old Man Is Dozing Off in Court & His Supporters Think It's a Masterful Gambit

Remember that one time Hillary Clinton answered an endless barrage of congressional questions for eleven hours without showing any signs of fatigue?

Apparently, she should’ve just taken a nap.

Got_Bent , to funny in The US has so much space

I miss the days when Google maps would tell you to get in a canoe for transoceanic routes.

I suspect some enterprising person actually tried it, thus depriving the rest of us our directional humor.

Got_Bent , to news in ‘Something will have to give’: IMF sounds alarm on US debt

I’ve always kinda felt that a Venezuelan/Zimbabwean type currency crash has always been the end goal when it comes to US debt.

Borrow more money than exists many times over.

Spend the money

Devalue the underlying currency of the debt to effectively zero

Fuck over millions upon millions of people

But hey, the spending was, in the end, all free!

Got_Bent , to news in As bans spread, fluoride in drinking water divides communities across the US

Are we sure these people don’t just want to ban Florida but have a spelling problem?

Got_Bent , to aboringdystopia in But how would they be able to live on that?

It’s already a thing and has been for quite some time. It’s called mark to market. Most people and companies use it to enjoy unrealized losses, but unrealized gains are in play. It’s not a new concept. It’s just that it’s an election at the individual level rather than a requirement.

Got_Bent , to lemmyshitpost in Progress!

So I was on a jury pool in December.

After the attorneys for both sides finished their dog and pony show, the judge himself made each of us answer the following question:

What is the purpose of criminal incarceration?

A - Punishment

B - Deterrence

C - Rehabilitation

After all seventy five of us had answered, all of us who responded with anything other than punishment were dismissed. Even those who answered a combination of the choices. Nope. Punishment was the only correct answer.

To my amusement, this barely left enough people available to fill the jury box.

I followed the case. Guy robbed a convenience store. No death. No injury. Got fifty nine years.

Got_Bent , to cat in Famous kitty succeeded in banning declawing in Denver

I’ve seen that before and it still makes me laugh out loud

Got_Bent , to lemmyshitpost in Uncle brian... I get you now

You guys have families?

Got_Bent , to retrogaming in Has anybody played music on their disc-based systems?

Not gaming console, but the first time I played a CD on my computer in the nineties, I thought I was witnessing the end of technology. Then when Primus released Tales from the Punchbowl on CD-ROM with the interactive stuff, I thought this was surely it. Technology could proceed no further.

Got_Bent , to news in Why your rich friend Venmo requests you for $4: People with more money 'struggle with generosity,' expert says

One of the many reasons that I don’t have venmo or any other form of transfer app is so people can’t send me some nominal sum of money.

I’m not rich, but definitely one of the higher earners at my job. I don’t want some person making less than half what I do worrying about a slice of pizza or a cup of coffee.

To note: This is also not something I gloat over or continuously remind people of or any such thing. I’m just happy to have the resources to be able to bring the smallest smidgen of “make your day a little less shitty”

Got_Bent , to videos in Am I the only one whose "shorts" feed is all basically softcore porn?

Eh. Pretty much all of my viewing is related to physics I don’t understand, astronomy I don’t understand, and weird history stuff. I still get the soft porn algorithm on shorts.

Closest I come to viewing is when I’m scrolling and my phone interprets that as a click. Then I get pissed off because that fraction of a second for the algorithm is like letting a single pregnant cockroach into your kitchen.

Got_Bent , to nostupidquestions in How does South Park get away with trashing identifiable people? Are they sued often?

Many years later, Coolio said that he regrets his reaction and that he realizes it’s an honor to get a Weird Al parody.

Got_Bent , to news in The rise of the scammy car loan

Probably the most valuable thing I learned in school was how to build amortization schedules. I’ve used it on vehicles, student debt, and mortgage. It’s really helped me win the “stop paying unnecessary interest to others” game.

Got_Bent , to world in Farmers warn of first year without harvest since Second World War

Do you think the UK sometimes sits up late at night with a bottle of whisky and stalks the EU on social media?
