| Topic | If someone with a history of Holocaust denial asks why fascism is bad... |
| Nemu 05/15/21 3:12:43 PM #5 | As long as you have some kind of proof like an archived message, it should be acceptable. If you have no active proof, even if the claim is true, I'd say it's fair to warn against it seeing as anyone can claim anything without proof. |
| Topic | Bioshock quote in yearbook called racist. |
| Nemu 05/15/21 11:23:36 AM #12 | Inherently racializing slave is rather silly but who the fuck thinks thats a good yearbook quote? |
| Topic | State vehicle inspections are dumb. |
| Nemu 05/15/21 10:32:41 AM #8 | Concept is fine, but I think the standards are pointlessly high for the purpose of generating revenue. It should simply be a standard of "is this car an active danger to the driver and those around them?" |
| Topic | til: Jussie Smollett sued the city of Chicago for arresting him |
| Nemu 05/15/21 8:27:23 AM #6 | Alucard188 posted... They will never prosecute people who lie about their abuse. They might get obstruction of justice or filing a false report, but that's it. It's already hard enough for real victims to come forth, never mind having to deal with the specter of being prosecuted if someone decides their story doesn't add up.I mean there's a difference between facts not adding up and literally hiring other people to help you stage a crime. |
| Topic | til: Jussie Smollett sued the city of Chicago for arresting him |
| Nemu 05/15/21 8:23:05 AM #4 | I hate that he never really got any actual punishment for that shit. Just the thought of it potentially making it harder for someone who experienced actual violence to get justice is horrible. It's one thing just to be a piece of shit, but that was a whole other level of disgusting. |
| Topic | this person's hate for koalas is palpable, lol |
| Nemu 05/15/21 7:40:05 AM #8 | It's just an overblown pasta, like the one about the sunfish. Though koalas do seem to be very dumb animals regardless. |
| Topic | Welp, luffy went and done it again *manga spoilers* |
| Nemu 05/14/21 10:24:59 PM #12 | Not unexpected but rather boring. Feels like they could have at least waited like 20 chapters to get some of the fights out of the way before moving on. Not sure why they're bothering with Kid vs Mom when it's obvious he's way weaker than Luffy. |
| Topic | Dogecoin FML |
| Nemu 05/14/21 10:11:02 PM #25 | I just started playing around with it, but I don't get the point in caring too much about it unless you're playing with big, big bucks. I just tossed in like $1300 to a few coins, but seems more worth it to just lose the $1300 than lose out on the chance it goes really big, barring a super massive "it's dead, Jim" kinda drop. |
| Topic | Police testimony should not be admissible without supporting evidence. |
| Nemu 05/14/21 4:04:49 PM #11 | No, but we definitely need more cameras on police and police vehicles that are on at pretty much all times. |
| Topic | Were shows like Maury real? |
| Nemu 05/14/21 3:47:17 PM #8 | All those shows are a mixed bag of legit nutballs, normal-ish people playing up the redneck at the stuido's urging, and blatant fake shit for the free trip out. |
| Topic | Texas forbids teachers to discuss racism in class |
| Nemu 05/14/21 12:56:31 PM #34 | Why does everything need to go to dumb extremes? Like we've certainly seen a few dumb fringe cases like trying to get small children who can barely read to understand the race relations, but this measure is otherwise stupid. |
| Topic | Let's talk about ME3's ending logic (spoilers) |
| Nemu 05/13/21 6:54:29 PM #47 | I'll never understand how the most popular "all your choices matter" game franchise ever ended up like that. It's not like they needed to have 100 different endings or anything, but holy shit not even the one ending path they made had any actual impact from our choices. |
| Topic | Woman spits on man. He gets his revenge. No one helps her. |
| Nemu 05/13/21 5:40:07 PM #16 | I assume legally that'd be considered unnecessary escalation on the guy's part, but morally I'm fine with it seeing as it's not like he beat her into the ground or anything. |
| Topic | Is this labor shortage thing overblown? |
| Nemu 05/13/21 4:42:22 PM #10 | Nah, it's pretty shitty. Normally even without posting for help wanted, I'd be getting at least 3-5 inquires per week if we're hiring this time of year, but now we're not even reaching that amount while actively seeking help. Though our second office north of us is having much better luck, so I'd assume this is a county by county, state by state issue. |
| Topic | Did anyone grow up watching Pepé Le Pew and think... |
| Nemu 05/13/21 2:25:19 PM #4 | Yeah, we can certainly say the tone of the cartoon has not aged well and shouldn't be reproduced, but he was definitely always portrayed as being repugnant from what I remember. |
| Topic | 'Significant crack found in the I-40 bridge over the Mississippi River' |
| Nemu 05/13/21 11:21:21 AM #24 | Id bet $10,000 that same county has several long lasting construction projects that could be completed in a couple weeks yet have dragged on for years for no real reason. |
| Topic | What do you think of escorts that have sex? |
| Nemu 05/13/21 11:16:08 AM #9 | As long as prostitutes are doing it if their own will and using safe practices, nothing wrong with them at all. Should be 100% legal and regulated. |
| Topic | TikTok influencer and 30-something FouseyTube kicked out of frat party |
| Nemu 05/13/21 10:31:08 AM #2 | In the bottom video, they say they were invited, so some PR meet the fans thing, but sounds like the frat people were just shitposting. |
| Topic | Turn based JRPGs that aren't just "use your best attack"? |
| Nemu 05/13/21 8:35:19 AM #53 | Shadow Hearts trilogy, on top of the wheel mechanic, was fairly varied from what I remember. |
| Topic | Let's settle this: Do you like celebrating birthdays? |
| Nemu 05/13/21 8:32:03 AM #11 | Nice small family dinner with some gifts is fine. Actual birthday celebrations treating it like it's anything special just feel weird after a certain age. |
| Topic | What do you think can be done to prevent another pandemic from happening? |
| Nemu 05/12/21 6:09:48 PM #4 | Quicker travel bans and harsher punishments for evading them to try to prevent the spread. Assuming it gets into the country, not so much. It'd take X% chance fatal across the board virus to get us to actually do anything. |
| Topic | The villains in DC Universe >>>>>>> The villains in Marvel |
| nemu 05/12/21 2:42:13 PM #15 | Both franchises are extremely varied in their overall characters, so it's not really even anything you can determine on such a broad level. |
| Topic | When did people turn on the morality systems in video games? |
| nemu 05/12/21 9:00:10 AM #15 | Same thing with any trend, neat, if basic, at the start, but then you see the flaws when all the copycats jump on board. |
| Topic | If you could fly just like most characters in Dragon Ball Z, but... |
| nemu 05/12/21 8:48:34 AM #10 | Mostly would depend if it's going to physically exert you just as much so you end up a sweaty mess if you fly too long. If you can only fly in tiny bursts, it's still better to have than not have, but it'd be a lot less useful if the end result on your body is the same as a marathon run. |
| Topic | If dogs became as intelligent as humans should they get equal rights? |
| nemu 05/12/21 8:39:31 AM #20 | Yeah, but the real question is should they wear pants? |
| Topic | Does Hollow Knight get hard? |
| nemu 05/11/21 10:33:43 PM #9 | For the base game, none of the bosses are soul crushingly difficult, but there are a few that may take a decent number of tries. Honestly getting back to some of them is the bigger pain than actually dying. Luckily there's a way to shorten it at least later in the game. If you want to 100% the game, the difficulty goes way, way, way up. For difficult platforming, there is the optional Path of Pain, and it is not a fucking exaggeration. |
| Topic | Christian School tells teachers to expel all gay and trans students or leave |
| nemu 05/11/21 8:34:54 PM #21 | Do Christians even have a theological argument against being trans? As stupid as the anti-gay stuff is, at least they can point to a popular, even if widely contested, interpretation of the bible. |
| Topic | Apparently I'm entitled because I'm upset I was intentionally given the wrong |
| nemu 05/11/21 8:03:50 PM #10 | gamepimp12 posted... of course Im appreciate of the act, the whole things just frustrating because this person repeatedly gets me the wrong size in stuff and when I asked for just cash instead they didnt want to do that.Unless you think they are purposely giving you shitty gifts for some reason, you're being entitled. Sounds like they're extremely lazy, but you aren't owed monetary value for something. Just smile, nod, and donate it. |
| Topic | Apparently I'm entitled because I'm upset I was intentionally given the wrong |
| nemu 05/11/21 7:56:07 PM #5 | Upset towards the gift giver or in private after getting the gift? Generally you just smile and nod when you're given gifts, and then deal with any fallout on your own afterwards. If you had a hissy fit when given the gift, yeah, that's entitled. If you bitched about it to someone else after, no, because it's a shitty gift. |
| Topic | Should people be fired for being racist? |
| nemu 05/11/21 7:45:55 PM #50 | Should? Not inherently, depends on context. Can? Yes. |
| Topic | Should the penny be eliminated? |
| nemu 05/11/21 10:07:56 AM #3 | Get rid of them and round up to units of 5. I'd rather pay 2-4 cents more than need to deal with those things. Luckily the times I've used cash in the last year number less than 10. |
| Topic | Would it bother you if your kid started wearing girls clothes? |
| nemu 05/11/21 9:49:33 AM #49 | In a vacuum, no. With the consideration of how he may be treated, yes. With the exception of clothing being tailored to the male and female frame, the idea of gendered clothing is ultimately rather silly, but we do live in reality where people are assholes about it. |
| Topic | Zombies Ate My Neighbors is coming back! |
| nemu 05/11/21 9:34:12 AM #15 | BabyRoxann posted... Hows the story? Never played themIt's 99% gameplay. |
| Topic | Zombies Ate My Neighbors is coming back! |
| nemu 05/11/21 9:23:25 AM #6 | ZAMN is one of those games that definitely needed to be released after the old timey arcade gimmicks were phased out. Games saves will definitely mean it's actually playable for non-masochists. |
| Topic | New Dragon Ball Super movie coming next year |
| nemu 05/10/21 7:43:48 PM #28 | sLaCkEr408___RJ posted... I feel weird saying I'm a huge fan, but skipped out on this new series. In turn, I havent watched Dragon ball heroes since I think it would spoil DBS. I'm just very conflicted with DBS because I felt it never should have started before the end of Z. Should have taken place after Goku left with Uub.I'd say despite its flaws, it at least feels like something that could have acted as a direct continuation had AT kept going for 5 more years under a new editor, differing from GT which felt like someone trying and failing to emulate Dragon Ball. Though do not watch Dragon Ball Heroes regardless. It is absolute garbage. |
| Topic | New Dragon Ball Super movie coming next year |
| nemu 05/10/21 7:34:06 PM #24 | sLaCkEr408___RJ posted... As a huge Dragon Ball fan [read all manga and watched until end of GT], I still have not given Super a chance other than the films.Anime is a real up and down mixed bag with more lows than highs. Manga has been pretty decent aside from being typical Dragon Ball. |
| Topic | New Dragon Ball Super movie coming next year |
| nemu 05/10/21 6:56:39 PM #18 | creativeme posted... cooler movie still seems possible. i hope they don't go with the rumors and cramming the whole moro arc into a movie. i know it went on too long but the anime could fix it and trim it down. cutting it all down to a movie is too much.Spoilers just in case anyone actually cares - |
| Topic | Do you think this woman's shorts are too short? She was banned from six flags |
| nemu 05/10/21 6:46:21 PM #41 | ForsakenHermit posted... Does this Six Flags have a water park where bikinis can be worn? Cause if yes I'm not seeing the issue here.They appear to have rules of no bathing suits outside of designated water park areas, but I assume that has multiple factors including the material being unsafe for rides, being shirtless/wearing a bikini, etc. |
| Topic | New Dragon Ball Super movie coming next year |
| nemu 05/10/21 6:27:24 PM #10 | Makeveli_lives posted... Videl is pregnant in super right? That's means it's after buu was defeated and uub was reincarnated like immediately after buu died. So Uub exist.He cannot have a real role until Post-Z due to them meeting him for the first time there. Though if you are not caught up with the manga, might want to give it a read if you want at least a bit of Uub content. |
| Topic | Do you think this woman's shorts are too short? She was banned from six flags |
| nemu 05/10/21 6:21:26 PM #5 | Unless there's some kind of context not in the video like some beaver leaking out, it definitely does not look like they'd violate any kind of dress code or indecency law. Seems they only have dress codes in relation to profanity and other explicit imagery, so anything beyond that is probably left up to local laws. |
| Topic | New Dragon Ball Super movie coming next year |
| nemu 05/10/21 5:45:10 PM #4 | Solar_Crimson posted... Is it going to be the Moro storyline?Toriyama is working on a storyline for it, so seems doubtful it'll be anything we've already seen. Might either be pre-Moro or post-Granolah. |
| Topic | What's faster? An airplane shaped dragon or a chonky cat? |
| nemu 05/10/21 5:12:40 PM #4 | Depends if you're measuring top speed, speed to physically launch an attack, overall physical mobility and agility, or some mix of all of the above. |
| Topic | Is it body shaming to encourage a fat person to lose weight? |
| nemu 05/10/21 4:56:35 PM #10 | No, but you can be too aggressive about it. Overweight people need to want to change. If they don't, then nothing is going to change anything. The only time to be combative is when people assert the "healthy at any size" nonsense. |
| Topic | why aren't humming birds extinct? |
| nemu 05/09/21 9:01:57 PM #16 | Beveren_Rabbit posted... Think of any other bird. You can visualize them perching on a branch of tree. But with hummingbirds they are in constant hover mode and can only eat from one type of flowerNo, they rest, sleep, and sometime perch when drinking. They're just using the majority of their time finding food. They go into a weird state when they sleep that greatly reduces their metabolism when they sleep. |
| Topic | $25 Million, or infinity knowledge of these 5 school subjects/Trades |
| nemu 05/09/21 8:56:29 PM #13 | a-c-a-b posted... People seem to think that having that knowledge means that money is just gonna fall in your lap.We're talking literally all the knowledge in each field in this hypothetical. You do not have to work hard in any way whatsoever to profit. You can just think of anything that should be humanly possible within the scope of the five fields and shit out whatever you need. We're talking phones that have quantum computers in them and that kind of stuff. |
| Topic | $25 Million, or infinity knowledge of these 5 school subjects/Trades |
| nemu 05/09/21 8:49:17 PM #8 | Ignoring some of the possible downsides of infinite knowledge being inserted into your mind if we're taking that literally, knowledge is obviously way better. You'll be able to advance humanity millions of years into the future assuming we have the capability to replicate the technology. |
| Topic | Would desiring your SO to be totally nude all the time be lewd or foul? |
| nemu 05/09/21 7:38:59 PM #6 | If it's some kind of naturalist thing, neither. If it's a one sided but consensual fetish thing, lewd. If it's some kind of forceful abuse thing, foul. If she's a duck, fowl. |
