Once you're an adult, you have no obligation to spend any time with your parents if they do not appreciate you for who you are.

Unless you still live at home, that is, in which case, you should probably fix that first.

What if I told you you do not have to be loyal to people who don't respect you?

Definitely not, and the solution is to stop hanging out with people who ridicule or mock you for your interests and hobbies, and find those who admire and/or encourage you instead.

Thanks. I honestly feel this post has gone vastly underappreciated 😔

Thanks, you just gave a perfect counterexample to what I'm talking about.

First of all, I never said anything about it involving little to zero personal cost. Playing the lottery is the exact opposite because it's 0.1% work and 99.9% hope. Personal responsibility is more like 90% work and 10% hope.

Yes, I was being somewhat facetious about people enjoying their suffering, what I really meant is that they enjoy it more than the effort required for making a change. Your second example is a great illustration of that, because rather than looking ahead and watching out for signs of sharks (like a tailfin sticking out of the water), they'll just keep going in their comfortable routine instead of changing course.

Very often, looking ahead to check if you're still on track to where you were originally going is all that's required — if you notice the sharks (or the currents) before getting swept up in them, it's still quite easy to change course. But people will rather commiserate over how difficult it is to wade through those currents instead of stopping for a moment to reassess their plans, and then complain some more when the sharks show up.

Self-ownership. Stop blaming other people for your problems and figure out a solution instead of constantly commiserating with everyone else.

Most people will never tell you this, but they enjoy their own suffering. It gives them comfort. It gives them security, because it's predictable. It allows them to avoid taking any risks, and it allows them to get angry at anyone who is threatening to take that away from them. Suffering is like a drug, and most people are hopelessly addicted to it.

Everything just screams crime about this — both the order itself as well as the fact that they found a way to screw it up anyways, not to mention the fact he had a dude drive an empty box across town for a stupid Internet joke.

I'm just glad Greg decided to tip well over 100% for this stunt, so please be lenient with your judgement.

Or would this perhaps be considered breakfast pizza instead?

Anyways, here’s your Froot Loops. Have a nice Sunday!

Not sure if this is a crime or just a sad attempt at a potentially interesting fusion concept.

I found no explanation along with the picture, but my most charitable guess would be a Reuben-inspired hot dog wrap. Which might actually be pretty good with some higher quality ingredients, but this dollar store wiener just screams depression meal to me.

 

Literally every single time I try open their app, I get asked to click the button again to verify that I am indeed human.

On top of that, it doesn't always work for some mysterious reason, occasionally it ends up short circuiting and looping for a while before showing me the prompt again, and only lets me in on the second or third attempt.

I do realize that since I AM using a VPN to access it, I might be seeing this prompt more frequently than others, but many other sites use the same CloudFlare protection mechanism and I have yet to see one that shows me the prompt as frequently as OpenAI does.

Just thought it's funny because it's literally a bot asking me to verify that I'm not a bot.
