The youngsters are downvoting you, but what you’re saying is sad but true. It’s the reason Bernie never ran as an independent, he knew it would hand the victory to republicans on a silver platter.

I honestly found it funny in a kind of a cute way, but I guess others didn’t feel that way. Oh well, such is life sometimes.

Not to be a dick or anything, but I found it funny that you chose to mention the political career and your opinion of him. Nice touch, but very much irrelevant. Keep up the good work!

If you say so. However, feel free to be one of those people who discover later in life how their quality of life drastically went up with a bit of jogging or going to the gym. “If I had figured this out younger, I would have …” and so on.

Do you even lift bro?

Seriously though, doing some exercise could fix both of those problems. Kicking extinct fish doesn’t count.

Yes, I thought all magic works like that.

I wish this was possible without the whole god thing. What do you do during prayers etc.? Whenever I’ve attended a baptism or a funeral or some such, all I can think about is how much mana the priest is using when casting the bless on the audience. It gets so awkward.

No, it’s actually a comment section for a Youtube video, and it is appropriate to voice an opinion related to it here.

The meme you’re parroting fits better when someone goes wildly off-topic, which is not what happened here.

I think they wanted people who follow orders to the dot, not people who have a sense of humor. Sounds like a terrible place to work, but I still understand their reasoning.

Bojack was pure gold. No idea about the rest.

Don’t you even think about the billionaires, bro?

Here is an Iron Law I have learned from two decades on Facebook: If you are 39 years old and married with two children, you do not get this ripped unless you are deeply unhappy.

Oh man, that hurt.

How to tell the world your testosterone levels have peaked and the decline is making you a bit cranky.

One can tell you’re a quality poster for putting a reference to a freaking programming meme. It is an overkill, but a quality overkill.

Sorry I can’t really contribute to your question, but would anyway like to take the opportunity to air my grievances: I hate Youtube shorts and TikToks with fierce passion. The format of short videos makes sense and is a good idea to some extent, but who the hell decided we’re not allowed to rewind our videos anymore? I want to hunt down that person, go to their house at night and tell them that they are not very good at their job so loud that their whole family can hear it.

Ryan George of Pitch Meetings is great if you’re sick of the formulaic, pandering Hollywood franchise movies.

Dave Borlace has an informative, although a bit dry channel on climate change and clean technology, Just have a think - There’s a lot of unreported innovative stuff out there.

And finally, my favorite, Rollie Williams’ Climate Town - The entertainment + information value of this channel is just unmatched. The creator is a comedian and has a degree in climate science and knows his shit of both worlds.

I’m sure for many trolls the goal is mainly to cause a reaction, and I think the alt-right stuff is an easy way to do so. Maybe that’s a better way to put it.

Then there’s the crowd that populated r/the_donald back in the day. Not sure how much of that was just trolling, but I’m certainly glad not to see that activity here.

I have also noticed the absence of alt-right/populist right-wing people. But that could go under your point 2. It’s refreshing nevertheless.

Also less guerilla marketing. Not missing that shit one bit.

Interesting, didn’t know that!

Just to counter the “Mother” example, in Finnish the word is “äiti”. One could argue “mamma” is also used, but in my opinion it’s just Swedish influence and not really used in the Eastern parts.

The topic is very interesting however, and recently I’ve read about the theory of universal grammar https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_grammar which is a theory roughly saying that every human has an innate biological understanding for certain rules of grammar - independent of upbringing, culture and the like. For example, every human language will distinguish between nouns and vowels and verbs. The concept is fascinating, but so is the criticism. You could argue that the whole idea is just unfalsifiable pseudoscience or post-hoc explanation for what has been observed.
