I’ll share mine first.
I had a psych patient one night pile shitty toilet paper next to his toilet overnight. Normally my psych nurse brain would consider this a symptom of disorganized psychosis, EXCEPT!
I remembered an aita post about a conflict between a western OP and his middle eastern roomate trying to figure out why their roommate put their shitty toilet paper in the trash. Turns out many middle eastern toilets can’t handle toilet paper.
Oh and inpatient psychiatry doesn’t provide freestanding hard plastic trashcans (turns out they make great clubs). We gave him one of our freestanding paper bag trashcans and problem solved.
TL;DR; Reddit expanded my cultural knowledge enough to differentiate disorganized psychotic behaviors from a genuine cultural difference. Thanks reddit!
Anyone have any similar examples of positive exchanges of knowledge or culture using reddit?
To be fair commies lose their shit from just about anything
You just don’t hear anything from the commies that see your dumb shit, roll their eyes, and decide not to roll in the mud with you. It’s a hard selection bias
Nah bro, they do comment back to me, just recently I was talking to someone who, I think, threatened to “kick my ass”. I guess that’s communist theory in a nutshell really.
With that level of comprehension it’s not surprising they’re impatient with you.
Who said anything about impatient? Its only natural for commies to be violent, you do know where the word tankie comes from, right?
Yeah, you didn’t understand my comment.
People who don’t freak out are, by their nature, not responding to you. You only see people who do.
