It's only a costume until a lot of people start wearing it, then it becomes fashion

Let's dress up as pirates then!

I want to be Iconoclast and steer away from the conventional pants and t-shirts that I normally wear. I'm thinking of just wearing a robe and dressing up as a Jedi. If I can afford to dress up as an anime character, I'd choose to dress up as one of the MCs from One Piece; maybe Zorro or Luffy. Do people actually do this or am I particularly weird for even considering this? I want to close the gap between how I interpret the world through my imagination and how the world functions through the status quo.

I am going to binge watch anime in July

I'm telling you, it's the only way to enjoy it. I'm going to rewatch the entire dragon ball series when I have the chance. I can't wait.

I realized I've been spending roughly 7 hours a day binge watching anime.

Is it all MMO based similar to WOW or do I get to still experience an awesome storyline like with the previous FF games? I feel nostalgic for FFVIII at times and wish I could chase a similar high. It's not the same playing the remake; I just want a new experience but with the same old tricks.

their personal data from since the internet was invented; with of course education, and other measurable aptitudes. We won't have to deal with echo chambers and all that political divide. People will be selected based on neutrality and their ability to make our country become better based on objective measures. None of that right wing/left wing propaganda; people are selected on their ability to increase economic and social welfare.

Doesn't it become the last place after I found it? So by finding it, it becomes the last place no matter what.

Hot girls are leaner than popular guys, but the guys are more violent/physical

I'm going to just jump the gun and say that testosterone makes everybody into an *ahole

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]

I have a hypothesis that I haven't tested out yet. Hot men are, on average, meaner than hot girls because of all that testosterone. You can't have a chiseled jaw and gob smacking pecs without that testosterone man. Unfortunately, I would need a testosterone measuring device when collecting data.

I'm basing this on my anecdotal experience so bare with me when I make claims that are subjective. Not everybody is going to agree, but I'd definitely like everyone's take on this.

Out of the random sampling method, observing 30 hot girls and 30 hot guys I've encountered in the two years working in the service industry (club/bar), I have to say "conventionally hot guys" are extremely mean to their uglier counterparts. I measure meanness using several metrics based on my opinions: intonation, word choice, body gesture, and context on a scale of 1-5 with 5 being the highest (a total of 20). Sadly hot men came in strong with an average of 17/20 with only 4 men scoring less than 10. Hot girls came in pretty strong at 15/20 but they were noticeably weaker in the "context" region of the metric. Sadly though, out of the 30 hot girls I've encountered, I'd say the range between the high meanness score and low meanness score was less nuanced.

Note that I've probably ran into over a 1000 people working at my job. Now before you start and say this is a sampling bias, keep in mind that I eat crayons and sniff glue. Hot men are meaner than hot girls but there are more hot girls on average that are mean.

Yep. And just to be clear, their reason for termination, after the investigation was completed, was due to confidentiality breach.

Say that you had amnesia and that you don't remember their Burger King whopper recipe! Sir we are at a Wendys.

Long ago I figured out that if I wanted to get some answers to a question, I needed to look to see if someone had asked that same question on reddit

Yeah I do that too sometimes. Seems like it doesn't show recent reddit posts though; only archived material from years ago.

Why were you on administrative leave

He was a Wendy's man working at a Burger King. I'm guessing he signed some NDA not to reveal Whopper's secret recipe, but eventually got caught before he had a chance to go back. My best guess is that you work at Wendy's as your first job and your covert op at Burger king was your second.

If youre looking for scholarly articles and whatnot search your universities electronic library instead

I miss those days where you can type anything on google and you'll get a list of dissertations on any subject. My school library has really cruddy scholarly research material.

I've stopped using google search engines along with anything google related since 2016. The only reason I stopped and switched over to Bing is because I couldn't seem to find scholarly articles without getting bombarded with 2 pages worth of irrelevant info. Even with Bing, I feel like the search results are waning compared to before. I can't imagine ever going back to google. Do you think google will cease to exist or eventually get acquired by a bigger corporation? I just don't understand using google other than its appeal to tradition; its just nostalgic, nothing more.

If everybody wrote in a way where a good writer would presume to be grammatically incorrect; wouldn't the rule of writing then change to incorporate the mass? For example, if one person wrote this sentence correctly while the other 1000 wrote their sentence with a comma. In that situation would the 1000 be correct? It would be stupid to make the rules in favor for one person when it does nothing for the majority. It just seems like gatekeeping the English language for elitists.

I like having thicc legs.I wear jeans that are not too skinny but not baggy enough, in order to give the illusion that I'm a muscular guy that does his leg days; in reality my legs are big because of fat

I think if its too tight, it kind of makes you look like a centaur.

I can't tell if this is sarcastic/rhetorical or not. Obviously you wait.

I forgot to mention that I don't know how to drive. I'm just basing my assessment on the standard of care that a reasonable person would oblige to, based on the rules of negligence and strict liability. I wasn't sure if that same assessment applied to the rules of the road.

When you're driving and waiting in the middle of an intersection and there is a big truck in front you trying to go in the same direction, what do you do? Do you wait until you can clearly see that there are no incoming cars, or do you presume that it's okay to cross the intersection right after the truck?

My uber driver decided to go in the middle of an intersection when there was a big truck in front of us. We clearly couldn't see if there were no incoming cars, but he just presumed that since the truck went, there would be enough space for us to cross the intersection as well. As it turned out, right after the truck passed, there was an incoming car right in front of us. If I didn't say anything to the driver, I think the car would have crashed into us. Was I in the wrong to tell my uber driver that he was being reckless or is this type of driving behavior expected at an intersection?

Are you talking about turntablism? Does anyone really even do that anymore?

I think Djing can easily be replaced by some machine learning algorithm that creates playlist based on popular streaming data.

Do you really need to pay someone $1000+ to play at your event when you can go on soundcloud or spotify and just play the top hit list lol.

_____Cait posted...

Their real job is to create atmosphere and choosing a playlist that boosts the air.

The idea that they have to spin a disc or drop beats in the middle of a song is not what a modern DJ does.

Okay...but is that really so difficult? I think I can do that too.

I've been at events that had good djs and bad djs and it definitely makes a difference imo, there's a skill to doing it well

But do you think if you had the time, maybe you can do a much better job? I think bad DJs exist because they're the lowest common denominator and never had any skill to begin with (maybe they don't even know how to read?). I think good DJs may have skill but it's an easily achievable skill that anyone can master. Come on, this isn't like you're studying physics or even playing a musical instrument like the violin.

I had an encounter with a try-hard 40 year old (called himself the Tinman) at a club, telling girls half his age that he's a DJ in order to desperately get laid. It was such a pathetic attempt that I felt sorry for him. I don't think anyone Gen Z still thinks EDM is cool. It's the equivalent of someone buying a cheap $400 slr and comparing it to a full frame camera that's 10x the price. Whole different level of skillset there.

I tend to roll my eyes whenever someone proudly struts their chest, self proclaiming they're a DJ just for clout. Unless you produce music, I feel like the basics of Djing require no intelligence whatsoever. I can spend 3 hours on youtube learning all the basics; it's not like you're solving complex linear equations. Djing seems like an excuse for those that only graduated high school and are looking to validate their fragile ego. It's a cesspool for losers with ridiculous pseudonyms that think they have any relevance to society. I'm terribly sorry if you're a DJ btw.

This should be illegal. This is fraud.

It's in a grey area. The $25 application fee is an agreement for the offeror to "consider" their application as a tenant. Unless there was a binding agreement and an actual contract in place; the offeror can simply decide to withdraw their offer without repercussions. If the offeree agreed to live in the home and they decided to pull out; their actions would fall under promissory estoppel.

Sure. Charge $25 for a non-refundable "application" fee but decide you want to not have tenants at all. If I had a nice house, I could probably do this infinitely throughout my life time.

Aren't his powers limited in the sense that his new abilities/power is capped to the Sun?

He has to be able to heal from his injuries first.

Simple solution: Senzu beans

teleport to a safe space, take senzu and heal, and teleport back.

Also, don't Saiyans become stronger when they're matched with a comparable/stronger foe? By fighting Super Man, Goku might evolve into higher form of Ultra instinct. Super Man's powers are capped.

rideshort posted...

How does Goku know about Kryptonite? Can't get something he doesn't know about. And let's say if he did, how will he know where to find it? Don't forget that for his teleportation to work, he has to sense Ki signatures to take him to that spot (particularly high ones). If he's in Superman universe, Ki isn't a thing. Lastly if Goku gets revived by the Dragonballs, that implies Superman killed him and therefore loses.

I'm going to assume that Bulma invents a technology where the two universes become congruent with each other. By that logic, Ki will exist in both universes. Idk guys...Goku with master ultra instinct is pretty OP.

Goku can just teleport and get kryptonite, therefore Goku > Super Man
Not to mention infinite revival through dragon balls.

I wouldn't think so. There are only a few things that are inherently illegal to pretend to be, like cops and distinguished military awards.

So what I presented myself as a cyber cop from the future where AI supposedly has taken over? Will it still count as impersonating an officer of the law?

I like spanking. I'm not sure if I like to be on the other end though. Hmmm, maybe I might add that to my profile bit.

Super illegal

Really? Uh ohhh...I guess I pulled the trigger early on that one.

Just for comedic purposes. Since I don't have any social media, people always mistake me for someone else, whenever they do a google search of my name. I'm tired of someone coming up to me and asking me if I went to a certain school, etc. Then the idea of making my own website came into mind. I was able to secure a domain with my first and last name; now I'm considering creating a site presenting myself as an expert in something completely arbitrary and non existent. Maybe I can say I went to the school of anime physics and got my PhD in the study of universes that exist in Dragon Ball Z. I would wear a suit and take a stock photo to make it professional and everything.

Of course, I intend to take down the site when I have prospects for future employment. But for now, I want to have a little fun. Is in anyway illegal?

By that logic, if companies were to outsource employees, they would go for countries with a lower cost of living like India vs England? Is there ever an opportunity where a US company would hire someone from Japan vs looking for someone in the US; or is this more unlikely to happen?

Accolon posted...

That's Capitalism baby

So in that sense, even if I'm a non-US citizen, will the rules of capitalism still apply to me; where I can request my own salary?

Can't they ask for the same amount of payment that workers of the same education are getting? It doesn't make sense to say okay to a 50% salary cut, when it's obvious that the worker next to you is getting a 100k salary in tech? Or is there some type of law in place where workers outside of the US have a cap in their salary?

For example, if I was a computer engineer in India and I got outsourced by an American company; why is it that I receive a lower salary in comparison to someone in the US with the same education as me?

you could be a tad more tactful and say something along the lines of "go suck an egg"

Is it really more tactful? "Go suck an egg," implies something more hurtful right?

I thought it would be a great way to passive aggressively tell a girl I don't really like to F*** off. She's always expecting people to like her comments, but she never returns the favor. I'm tired of her "pick me" energy.

"You can go on your broom and fly away now"

Then where is a good website where I can relearn the basics of Statistics? I need a website that can tell me excel functions (St.dev, etc) so I don't have to write everything out on paper. Pleeease help me.

I took Statistics in the earlier years of my undergraduate and it seems that I have forgotten all the calculations involving confidence interval of proportions, mean, and standard deviations. I got an A in the course, but I can't seem to remember anything besides the basics. Should I take the course again so I can use it as a refresher? Do people actually do this or am I crazy?

I'm on the second episode and I can't help but find the supporting actress to be incredibly needy. Is it worth continuing? Does it get any better?

I'm on episode 2 now and I can't stand Rose. She's so needy! Okay, I think I'm done watching this. Time to cancel Netflix and back to HBO subscriptions.

Yes.

How does it compare to the show You?

I keep on seeing it on the top 1 list for Netflix and it made me question if it was actually worth watching, or if it was Netflix just shamelessly promoting another series?
