People that order doordash/uber eats from places that do their own delivery, like a local pizza place.

My daughter works at one of the local pizza places, and they employ their own delivery people and do not charge extra for delivery, but for the added exposure, they also deliver through doordash and uber eats.

She says the amount of people that order through delivery services is staggering.

Are people THAT adverse to making a phone call that they're willing to pay upwards of an extra $20 just to order through an app instead?
It's more likely that they were simply looking for something to eat via those apps. If I open DoorDash, it shows me tons of nearby restaurants to order from. But there's no way of knowing which places deliver on their own unless I look them up outside of the app. And if I'm already browsing DoorDash, then I'm not really worried about saving as much money as possible. There's a lot of options on there and it's convenient.

But yes, I'd prefer not to order via phone if I don't have to. If I find out a place delivers, I will check first if I can order through a website or an app. Calling them to place an order is my last resort lol.

Thats great, sounds like the genuine connection and attention opened up a door you thought closed
I had really amazing friends but I didnt want to date them I just wasnt interested though I felt i should try to date this girl who kept hinting at dating we were close friend at the time for years but I wasnt into her even though I did like her looks there was a girl I liked though but I felt like I was forcing the crush to feel normal ngl. But with the man I knew I really liked him even though it wouldnt be a thing so even then I will keep trying to meet people either gender to see if those feelings spark again

Gender dysphoria and they/them non-binary folks

Im not saying I dont respect people who identify as trans or non-binary, just that I as a cis white male with no issue with my sense of self simply doesnt understand what it must feel like to not be your gender assigned at birth.

I guess also sexuality. It must be extremely hard in some cases to actually realize that youre gay or bi and as a straight man just dont understand what it would be like to go through (all of my gay friends through high school / college seemed to already figure out their sexuality before we became friends etc.)

Nah man that's where the sharks live
Sharks dont have any interest in humans, my man. Youre more likely to be accosted by a horny dolphin. Nearly all shark attacks come from surfers being mistaken for seals as they splash about on their boards as they paddle towards a wave.

Theres people saying they want Pokmon to have a really deep story. Same, me too but when has Pokmon ever had an outstanding story or anything besides sun and moon and black and white gens? Then theres people complaining about gameplay its not even changed much besides the story difficulty being on the easier side for games past gen 6 I see its kinda valid tbh. The graphics are bad yeah but Pokmons graphics have been pixels for the mainline gens before 6 and the gens after are still decent looking for the console they are on maybe a bit below though.
What Im saying is Pokmon has never been this outstanding series its always been great but not outstanding Ive replayed the games a lot but I found myself enjoying other rpgs more

I think theres a difference between saying the graphics are bad on the Switch and then comparing them to GameBoy graphics. The 2D games were extremely charming because of the 2D, whereas the 3Djust isnt.

Yes but my point is that Pokmon never was as amazing as people act like they were in the past and that game freak as a company have always been kinda behind execution of games

The issue with Pokemon isn't that it used to be better. But rather, fans are upset about all of the wasted potential. It's one of the biggest IP's in the world, yet the games are so low effort, which has become increasingly obvious with the games on the Switch. Minimal story, no voice acting (I'm sorry, but don't have a whole ass concert scene if you're not going to add in voices), bad graphics, tons of glitches. The games could be amazing, but that's not what we've been getting.

I agree yes they definitely could do way better with the games and it really is massive missed potential i could still be a fan if they tried harder but they know the majority will buy the games as long as they keep it at least average to below average quality and keep profits as high with less development cost and skipping graphic and framerate polish and voice acting corners

I'd rather deal with this than get my heart broken tbh

Also I could've sworn I replied to this already >_>
No way! The feeling of love is better than nothing wtf as a person who only loved like 4. Family members it was kinda soul destroying not feeling anything strongly about anyone besides them 4 I liked my friends but loving someone in a deeper way is actually really soul restoring

How people can be so convinced that this life is all there is and that they need to make the most of it, only to spend that life whining about religion. You'd think the logical conclusion there would be to live life and get as many experiences as possible before the lights go out but nah.

I don't get school uniforms in anime as if it was some kind of fetish on its own.

Give me a cute anime woman in a turtleneck sweater instead. I have some of my own and they make me feel sexy. <3

I think I have an issue where I keep falling for or developing crushes on the wrong people. >_>

Wish I could be one of those people who are just stoic as fuck and it takes a lot for them to feel anything
For what it's worth, not everyone that's stoic feels nothing. Sometimes they just hide what they're actually feeling.

Are they real people I find it so hard to believe. Hes so unattractive to look at (ok to me he is its subjective but the further context of his behaviour gives me man child vibes and his face is just unappealingly smug looking I hate his expressions) why do people kiss his ass I really hope its ironic but its not for some of them do they think if theyre nice hell give money? Better luck doing that to a giving millionaire like mr beast lmao.

- Social media (I want to have discussions, not brag, chase numbers or scream into the void)
- Playing music loud enough for the next city to hear and with enough bass to crack asphalt

I still don't get or understand why black people still cling to a religion that was used to make our ancestors more subservient.

I think a major part of it is the structure and communion that comes from it. Having something else tell you how the world works and what to do is easy on the mind, and the regular meetings and social support are generally good for one's mental health.

One could say that the games have not evolved much...

Spice.

Piercings.

Earrings are already beyond the limit I understand most of the time, but at least I can see them as pretty sometimes.

But piercings are far beyond me.

He/Him
People who go out to restaurants and order basic stuff like chicken tenders or lasagna.

Youre paying money. Get something actually different than what 90% of places have.

Especially since these folk only tend to go to American bars, never something culturally different.
A show of kindness may not do much help, but a show of cruelty may do much harm.
Anime. Never understood how westerners make sense of this.
Game collecting (having walls of old games you'll never play).
Owning things like pet tarantulas that hate your guts and want to escape.
Concerts.
Trump worship.
Low riders.
Crocs.
The desire to have a nuclear family.

This is where cool people write stuff.
