“The worst threat to man is man himself” Bangambiki Habyarimana, The Great Pearl of Wisdom

mke_geek ,

Quite clever!

mke_geek ,

Mid 30s isn’t “old as fuck”.

That being said, not everyone is destined to be in a relationship. Some people are just socially awkward or annoying to be around and don’t have either the guidance or desire to change.

Some people don’t even realize that they are annoying or off-putting to others, and so they can’t understand why no one will be their friend or get into a relationship with them. Sometimes they tend to blame other people as the problem instead of themselves.

I hardly ever order food to my home. One time in the past 5 years I’ve ordered pizza and had someone deliver it. It’s not worth the cost.

I rarely go out for fast food.

4ish years ago when I bought a house I was convinced not to get a house inspection, would it be crazy to get one now just to make sure it's all good?

Was 25 and super nervous, so when the realtor was like “oh yeah they just check for basic stuff, but I looked around and it looks great” I was like “Oh okay, this is so astronomically expensive every penny saved is good…”...

mke_geek ,

I bought my first house at 23. It takes discipline and saving.

mke_geek ,

Did you check out the “im_jealous” community?

mke_geek ,

Not out of touch at all.

mke_geek ,

Are you 13?

mke_geek ,

My parents didn’t give me money to buy a house.

mke_geek ,

I would prefer a future where criminals were eliminated. I don’t care what race they are.

mke_geek ,

He’s encouraging squatting, which is stealing. He’s an awful person.

mke_geek ,

No name calling on this sub. You are blocked.

mke_geek ,

mke_geek ,

Stealing is taking someone’s property without permission. That’s what squatting is. By encouraging squatting, this person is encouraging stealing and that makes them an awful person.

mke_geek ,

It’s very much stealing property. The same way a crime is committed when someone is raped. The victim still has their body afterwards, but a crime has been committed.

mke_geek ,

It’s better to block people than engage in back and forth that won’t go anywhere.

mke_geek ,

Name calling. Blocked.

mke_geek ,

Rape is stealing as well. You’re taking something from someone they didn’t freely give you.

My point is that stealing is bad and shouldn’t be encouraged.

mke_geek ,

It’s not BS. Rape is bad, stealing is bad.

mke_geek ,

Then you have the “parents” who purposely blow smoke in their baby’s face so the baby develops asthma and they can get government money for the baby from disability.

mke_geek ,

The best way to get free money from the government, that is.

mke_geek ,

You make fun of things that actually happen because you don’t want to believe that they happen. Not all children have happy childhoods.

Children are sometimes born to people who abuse and neglect them. It’s reality, not something to make fun of.

mke_geek ,

You’re making a joke about people abusing children. That’s disgusting.

I’ve never seen the video game so there’s lots of questions. I’m only a few episodes in. It would be nice if they had explained some of the background.

A friend who’s really into Fallout showed me some videos about the background lore.

You meant “Similarly” (like “similar” but with an “ly” at the end).

mke_geek ,

Understandable.

mke_geek ,

Totally agree. Instead of trying to create understanding, violence and thinking of other people as non-human only tears people apart.

mke_geek ,
  1. Not everyone who is a landlord is born into wealth. Someone born into poverty can also be a landlord.
  2. By your logic, grocery stores are the same. They don’t grow the food. They don’t invent new food. There’s nothing wrong with grocery stores either.
  3. The main reason landlords are hated is jealousy. People hate those who have something they don’t. Especially when landlords worked for what they have and the ones who are jealous didn’t – they want to be handed things for free without contributing. Look at the old parable of the ant and the grasshopper.
mke_geek ,

The only people who want something for doing no work is landlords and shareholders.

You are incorrect about that. Landlords absolutely do work.

mke_geek ,

Being a landlord is in fact, work.

Simply owning a property is called being a real estate investor. You can invest in property without even setting foot in it.

But maintaining it, interacting with tenants, etc is all work and that’s what a landlord does. As such, people should get paid for their work.

mke_geek ,

“Landlording” is a word. It’s the act of performing the work of a landlord.

Anyone can pay someone else to do work. But the act of hiring others and making sure they’re doing their job is still work.

The majority of landlords are known as “mom and pop” which means they only have a few rentals. Many small landlords don’t hire a large team because there’s not enough money coming in from the rental to do so.

mke_geek ,

Being a landlord IS a job. Being a landlord involves work, and work is a job. This is very simple.

mke_geek ,

Being a landlord is a self-employed job. People don’t advertise for self-employed jobs. They do those jobs themselves!

Sounds like you’re the one with the ignorance on the topic.

mke_geek ,

It sounds like you’re enabling the problem by continuing to spend the money.

mke_geek ,

There’s 41 houses/duplexes for sale in my city at or under $50k. The lowest are listed at $5,000 but someone could probably buy it for less. The city also provides $20,000 in money to fix up any of the houses they own.

mke_geek ,

What a horrible take, encouraging violence against people. For shame.

mke_geek ,

If you’re looking for a representation of America, it’s basically violence and apathy.

You must pick a point in human history before the 1950s to be spend the rest of your life in. What era and place would you choose?

You would still have the same age, gender, personality, skin color, etc. and you would be able to speak at least one local language and would know basic information of the era and place. Your family, social standing, and such would be randomly picked.

mke_geek ,

Back in time if you’re gay? Or trans? Or a woman? Or a person of color?

No thanks.

mke_geek ,

That’s a pretty narrow minded and incorrect view of the police.

This may seem kind of stupid but I am kind of stupid, is there a list somewhere of phrases that are stupid or insensitive racially or gender biased?

I just got up from conversation with a couple of older black men, that I said “well I got to go back to work and start cracking the whip.” And it occurred to me then that it was probably a really insensitive stupid thing to say....

mke_geek ,

I have never heard it described that way. It’s the last warm weather of the year before winter. It was something to look forward to.

mke_geek ,

You sound just like someone from Nazi Germany.

mke_geek ,

It’s like art, you know it when you see it.

mke_geek ,

It doesn’t make money to produce a product that kills your customer base quickly. Killing them slowly is what the cigarette industry does. Get the customer to purchase over and over again.

mke_geek ,

Buy medical debt. You can clear someone’s $150,000 debt for like $200.

How do you do this?

    This is an example of hating other people irrationally.

    mke_geek ,

    Not even $30k. I just got a pre-owned SUV for under $20k.

    Singapore is known for it’s low crime rate. Corporal punishment is widely accepted. Caning is used not only to punish criminals but also as a disciplinary measure in schools, the military, and domestically. You can find rattan canes for sale in the grocery store for about 50 cents.
