Topic | Do you support term limits for politicians? |
Tenlaar 02/23/24 3:19:04 PM #26 | MFBKBass5 posted... People should not be in politics that long. It should not a career path. Its a public service.You're just repeating your stance, not displaying how it isn't short sighted. Please give some examples of other areas in life where you feel it's best that nobody is allowed to have long term experience at the job. Do you prefer that doctors are only allowed to practice for eight years? If you need a lawyer, are you going to find the most recent graduate from law school you can? Engineers are only allowed to design three buildings and then they're out? |

Tenlaar 02/23/24 1:34:29 PM #14 | MFBKBass5 posted... Were talking people currently in office whove been there way too longHaving term limits would affect the new people being elected too. If you meant to ask whether we should just kick out current elected officials and not actually implement term limits, that's a very different question. |

Tenlaar 02/23/24 12:29:56 PM #14 | Getting Amy's Baking Company vibes from the owner for sure. ai123 posted... Not with no shows and last minute cancellation.This was not that, it was somebody who cancelled before they even flew to Boston. C_Pain posted... I've seen cancellation fees for restaurants in my area, but maybe the most is $50, and that's in NYC. $250 is such an insane fee, is this a super high end place? Wish I could see the images but Twitter is blocked on my phone.It's a $125 per seat seven course dinner. |

Topic | 3 dates with a girl, shes super feminist but hasn't even offered to pay a date |
Tenlaar 02/23/24 10:08:37 AM #24 | For all you know she has had bad experiences in the past with men feeling emasculated by her trying to pay or making more money than them. If you like her enough to go out multiple times then have a conversation about it like an adult. |

Tenlaar 02/22/24 7:08:46 PM #59 | action52 posted... The tweet very strongly implies they weren't wrong, and that the daughter was very grateful to the staff.The tweet flat out states that they were wrong, no implications about it. |
Topic | Mark Ruffalo Says Hulk Movie Is Too Expensive to Make These Days. |
Tenlaar 02/22/24 7:07:30 PM #9 | Marvel movies are already almost entirely CGI at this point. I'm curious how much more Hulk could cost than, say, Quantumania. That movie is like 93% CGI. |

Topic | Maine State House passes bill to ban paramilitary training. |
Tenlaar 02/22/24 6:39:21 PM #9 | It doesn't seem like this should be necessary because a group of people getting together to prepare for violent political action should be considered a conspiracy to commit terrorism. I think there is a reasonable concern about this being overzealously applied against people just preparing for something they believe is going to happen rather than with an intention to make it happen. |

Tenlaar 02/22/24 6:27:22 PM #27 | Glob posted... But we dont know thats what this is.Literally the only information we have is that a man started talking to a woman and the woman did not feel uncomfortable/unsafe. |
Topic | Is it acceptable to approach women at a coffee shop? |
Tenlaar 02/22/24 6:18:03 PM #17 | ROBANN_88 posted... slyly asking her if she's safe, without him knowing is not an overreactionSneaking a secret message to somebody asking if they need help absolutely is an overreaction to the mere act of a man talking to a woman. |

Who wants to bet someone else is going to keep repeating this point in the topic after it's already been repeated ad nauseamYou don't seem to have any problem with how many people have repeated the same thing in favor of the guy being given the jackpot. |
Topic | Error causes man to mistakenly believe he won $340m in the lottery. |
Tenlaar 02/22/24 2:09:52 PM #129 | MyMainAccount posted... The dangerous issue here is that you're setting the precedent that the numbers they produce are not final or official, that they can "change their mind" and rescind numbers they post which hits at the foundation of the game; trust that they will pay out winnings.The numbers that come up in the drawing are final. These were not numbers that came up in the drawing. Numbers that came up in the drawing were not rescinded and they didn't "change their mind" about anything. The man in question did not have numbers that came up in a drawing, so he did not win, so they are not failing to pay out winnings. Even if they aren't actually lying this time or next time, it means that nobody will be able to look at that page and be sure if they won. What if it's another "mistake"? It undermines the entire lottery."People will have to contact the OLG to ensure they've won and find out how much money they would get" is not a horrible or overly onerous thing. |

Topic | Report: Avengers: Kang Dynasty Is Getting a Name Change, and Could Drop Kang |
Tenlaar 02/22/24 1:14:26 PM #10 | PerseusRad posted... To be honest, Im pretty sure people were cold on Kang before the Jonathon Majors stuff. Seeing him get beat by a bunch of ants really hurt his image, even if part of the point is that he didnt have all his technology. Thanos failed before IW, but only through his intermediaries.The Kang in Quantumania was not the actual Kang threat and that was made clear in the movie. |

Tenlaar 02/22/24 12:15:08 PM #79 | chaos_knight posted... Tenlaar is alt right. What do you expect?I am not even remotely right wing, let alone alt right. Stop lying. Also what the fuck would that even have to do with whether it's valid to complain about being taken to a fast food restaurant as a first date? Are you really trying to say that is an alt right stance? |
Topic | Error causes man to mistakenly believe he won $340m in the lottery. |
Tenlaar 02/22/24 8:31:37 AM #97 | [LFAQs-redacted-quote] No they didnt, they erroneously posted numbers that were not numbers from the drawing. Winning = having the numbers that come up in the drawing, nothing else. |

Tenlaar 02/22/24 8:28:42 AM #94 | CSCA33 posted... Ah, but they did and still do whenever they sell tickets. Its why people buy their tickets in the first place, with the implicit promise of payment upon winning, and basis for breach of contract in the lawsuit.You are correct that they promise payment upon winning. He did not win. |

Tenlaar 02/22/24 2:16:23 AM #89 | CSCA33 posted... If other major companies turning profit hand over fist are making such mistakes over $340 million dollars payment promised to regular persons, perhaps they should also be held to account.They dont promise $340 million dollars payment to him, they told him it was a mistaken printing of a wrong number as soon as he contacted them. |

Topic | new Civil War trailer (Alex Garland movie) |
Tenlaar 02/21/24 2:21:09 PM #23 | creativerealms posted... It's the opposite. Pretty sure the MAGA crowd see Alex Garland as a woke liberal. I also doubt A24 would ever fund a conservative propaganda film.Plus Nick Offerman is far from a fan of the right, so him being in it is another clear indication. |

Super Nintendo games that released in a complete, tested and QAed state that dont need to sell you additional DLC to get the complete experience. No, you are being outrageousThat also describes an absolute fuck ton of games that come out today. Youre being outrageous to claim otherwise. |
Topic | Would you buy a bedside gun holster? |
Tenlaar 02/21/24 4:19:18 AM #58 | ScazarMeltex posted... Absolutely. I don't think about my gun. It's there if I need it, but unless I'm taking it out to go to a range it's out of sight out of mind. Unless my sister in law's kids come over at which point it goes up on a shelf in a room they aren't in to. To keep it in a holster attached to your bed is bonkers.Im about to blow your mind here, but what if somebody doesnt have/want a night stand? Can you actually explain why you think that a holster on the side of the bed rather than a foot away in a night stand beside the bed means somebody is obsessed with their gun and paranoid and all that rather than just saying it is? |
