Who is going to work if everything is free and you won't get paid if you do work?


No one. Its a pandemic. We should all stay home. Thats the point. In my scenario lockdown is strict and enforced unless youre truly essential (groceries, pharmacy, utility workers).

The government can give those people money for working because they have to. Everyone else stays home and we wait until this is done.

holy shit make everything free why has no one thought of this?????????


In a global pandemic where the world shuts down, seems like a simple solution to have the essentials of life (food, utilities, medication) be free until the pandemic is over.

The economy is just people who need money to pay other people for things.

If the people providing the things just let it slide then no one at any level NEEDS money.

Looks matter very much in professional wrestling so that distinction means absolutely nothing.

You went from saying its weird to think a hot wrestler dying is sad to agreeing that its not weird because it was her career.

And my point about Chester absolutely stands because you think being sad about losing a good singer is okay but being sad about losing a hot chick is insulting.

And again, it doesnt need to be their career for it to be sad, regular people can be hot, smart, skilled or artistic.

Youre a joke, dude. You think girls will feel like youre so noble and honorable for having this opinion but they wont, because they dont think that way.

Here's what I'm going to close off with. It's not as weird if it's a model, or someone whose career is centered around their looks. In which case then yeah, that's going to be natural.


Good, glad youve admitted you were wrong.

Other than that... nah.


You can still be pretty, smart, skilled or artistic without it being your career and it can still be sad when a regular person that possesses these traits dies.

Nope, I see no issue with highlighting what people brought to the world when they die, whether it was looks, skill, intelligence or artistry. Its all the same.

For some reason only looks seem to be a problem for you.

Again, no girl agrees with you and no girl will fuck you for thinking this. They understand that looks are an attribute.

Why do you only have a problem with highlighting someones looks when they die?

When Chester Bennington killed himself and people were saying we lost one of the best singers on Earth were you like UM, EXCUSE ME, HE WAS MORE THAN JUST A GOOD VOICE, THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

Its their legacy, and being gorgeous is just as commendable if youre in a profession where looks can lead to success/stardom.

Ugly people dying is also tragic.

If an ugly person with a genius level IQ who just got a full scholarship to Harvard killed themself id be equally sad about what they couldve become.

Hana Kimura being gorgeous and killing herself is tragic because her beauty couldve made her reach the top of her profession in the same way.

If you think thats weird then holy shit youre the biggest white knight on GameFAQs and no girl will fuck you for thinking that way.

Everything else was also a factor, but her being gorgeous was especially tragic and there is no problem at all in thinking that.

Attractive people have massive potential in this world, its a fact of life. And she was in the entertainment business so her looks wouldve made her a huge star in pro wrestling.

When Hana Kimura killed herself my first thought when I saw her was wow what an absolute angel this world just lost.

I dont see the problem with that.

Of course ugly people dying is just as sad, the point people are usually making is Wow she had everything going for her and was still sad enough inside to do that, goddamn tragedy.
