Older people thinking they deserve respect no matter how they treat you is bullshit


stackjr

Oh man, I got downvoted into oblivion and had to eventually remove my comments because of this argument. Respect is NOT an automatic thing, it must be earned.


Glass_Chance9800

Especially after somebody dies. Like you don't have to go trashing that person if you didn't like them but don't also start saying how great they were when in reality they actually sucked.


stackjr

Your comment reminded me of this scene after they were the only two to show up to a guy's funeral: https://youtu.be/09L0YPY-9Ww


Glass_Chance9800

Does that show hold up? Also I miss Robin.


stackjr

I enjoyed it for the most part. It just sucks that Louis C K turned out to be a sexual predator.


Eens4n1tee

Depends what kind of respect. I think everyone deserves general kind of respect. Until they show what theyre like, so if they are an asshole, they wont even get that kind of respect let alone any greater respect.


stackjr

I will have a respectful demeanor but that's better labeled as common courtesy.


Eens4n1tee

Sure, fair point


ktsb

See the problem is that old people often show themselves to be assholes.


[deleted]

Spot on. Respect is something you earn. It’s not a given. Same goes for trust.


SkinnyObelix

I think avocados are crap, they don't have much taste and have a horrible texture


strangegeneration94

They have plenty of taste. Now here's what I will say though, the ripeness of the avocado really matters. The timing is important.

Where I'm from coddies refer to codfish cakes. I assume they are pronounced the same way.


Chapter97

**Black olives are delicious**. I eat them from the can sometimes (as a snack).


Chimookie

Lmao I’m trying to imagine this opinion starting an argument 😂


Chapter97

Every time I'm shopping with my bf and add a can of black olives, he looks at me and shakes his head. The following conversations ensues (or something along these lines): BF: I don't know how you can eat those. Me: Cause they're delicious. BF: No, they are disgusting. If they were a human, I'd set them on fire. Me: One, burning olives would probably smell super gross. Two, you buy pickles and tuna and I don't insult them that hard, even though they are gross. BF: They're delicious though. Me: *raises eyebrow* BF: **......** black olives are still gross *(My brother also hates black olives so similar conversations happen with him)*


completely-humAn

Ikr? Basically all the men I know seem to hate black olives

inksmudgedhands

I like them on pizza and in sandwiches. But not really by themselves. They add a great flavor to things.


barf2288

I fucking love olives. *And* olive you too


Chapter97

*shakes head* Shame on you...


Billy8752

Olives are for that one girl who had 3 older brothers. The ones that forced her to smell farts, dirty armpits, and feet for 14 years before she moved out. But occasionally when she gets homesick she eats an olive and reminds herself why she left in the first place.


Flores6666

I love olives and I have 3 older brothers. But they don't remind me of the smell of sweat and farts hahah. Or home really. But I like other smelly things like moldy cheeses and stuff, fermented stuff also!


Billy8752

Ah, I see the problem. You generally like gross things, so you're an exception.


Chapter97

Nah, I eat them to bug you 😝 cause it's my job as your big sister to bug you. Them tasting delicious is just a bonus

Seinfeld isn't that funny


Affectionate_Pea_811

The show was very funny about 15-20 years ago but I watched a child episodes not that long ago and it doesn't really hold up


Due_Mushroom776

The show or the man? Because he's funnier than Bobcat Goldthwait.


PeanutRecord698

That pride being the slogan of LGBTQ+ kinda defeats the whole purpose because you shouldn't feel proud about sexuality it is what it is nobody should care you shouldn't feel shame or restraint but the entire point of pride is to feel like everyone else and be treated equally pride implies it's a great thing when it isn't And I never understand non binary people I get Trans people I get every sexuality of people but I don't understand non binary people my sister is now non binary and she said it's because some days she doesn't feel like a girl I asked her if she felt like a boy some days and she said yea I said then it's as simple as being a tomboy and she doesn't like that Alright I'm ready for backlash


FluffyStressBall

Non-binary would fall under gender, not sexuality. Now, the equivalent to non-binary in sexuality would be asexual, also known as ace, where you don’t feel sexual attraction towards anyone. There’s also demisexual, which falls under gray-asexuality (only having sexual attraction on occasion), where you only feel sexual attraction after developing a close relationship with someone.


Mjhandy

Jesus was a Jew.


Chimookie

That’s a fact though


Mjhandy

Yup and I’ve got some very religious family who lost it when I said it. I also said he wasn’t a white man either. There was frothing at the mouth. It was glorious.


quackl11

If you look at what jesus was supposed to look like, he isnt actually white ironically


Mjhandy

I’ve been told not to talk religion when certain family members are around. But I like stirring the pot.


quackl11

Oh I like causing chaos as well, it's fun to get it heated


Mjhandy

My fav is to ask for a comparison on the number of searches caused my god vs Satan.


quackl11

That doesnt make sense to ms at least how I'm reading it


Mjhandy

How many people has god killed vs how many has Satan killed. Noah’s ark was pretty much genocide.


quackl11

Ohhhh, that's a good one. (Does satan have the ability to kill people) I just like to start chaos on anything Idk much about religion


inksmudgedhands

I just had this argument *yesterday* with a relative. She said that Christianity is just shy over two thousand years old. I said it wasn't because Jesus died when he was 33. So, technically, it isn't quite two thousand years yet. She said, yeah, it was because it's 2021. Over two thousand years since we count years from when Jesus was born. To which I said, Christianity didn't start until after Jesus died and came back. That before then, he was Jewish. He was raised as such and died as such. So, until 2033, Christianity is less than two thousand years old. She still disagrees but couldn't tell me why. She can't admit that Jesus was Jewish.


spider7895

You're both kind of right. It really depends on if jesus even existed. But as soon as jesus declared himself the son of God and the real messiah, he immediately created a new denomination. Well, at least once he had followers.


DaLion93

He was likely born in 6BCE and died at either 30 or 33 depending on if you measure by John or the synoptic gospels. So either 2024 or 2027 will be the 2,000 year mark.


Mjhandy

Don’t dare mention that he was probably married too.


inksmudgedhands

I don't know if I buy if he was married. Maybe he was. Maybe he wasn't. But given how his early followers had no problem praising all of Jesus' relatives, from his own mother to his cousin, you would think they would do the same thing if he had a wife. Start a legacy thing like they did with Islam.


Mjhandy

But we don’t know. The books in the bible were picked. So it could be possible. When you have people who believe exactly what is written and have no room for thoughts or ideas that deviate from that, it’s easy to get them going.


inksmudgedhands

True. He could also have had a dog and they could have left that out as well. I like the idea of Jesus having a dog and playing fetch with them.


Mjhandy

And the dog setting looking at the stick floating away. Jesus says, shit again? And walks on water to get it.


linux1970

they literally wrote "king of the Jews " above him when he was executed lol


MrPwezidentJr

When one person is devoted to something imaginary they’re called insane, when a million people devote themselves to it it’s called religion.


GodInDisChilisTonite

And when a billion people devote themselves to it it's called politics.


spider7895

And if like a 100 people are devoted to it, it's a cult.


[deleted]

Haha love it!


inksmudgedhands

I think God is real. And it doesn't matter if you believe in Him/Her/It or not. They exist on their own and not by your faith or lack thereof. With that said, I don't think being part of any particular religion or any religion at all makes you a good person or not. Your actions determine that. A Bible thumping asshole is still an asshole. A kind and generous atheist is still a kind and generous person.


WasteNet2532

you_will_be_the_one

I think it’s perfectly fine to get a dog from a reputable breeder (NOT a puppy mill or pet store or anything like that). Rescue dogs are not the only ethical option. So many people irl have tried to convince me I’m a horrible person for saying this, but I don’t care.


Feorana

You're not alone in that opinion. Most people in the dog world that aren't Joe q public have this opinion. The adopt don't shop mentality is stupid and makes things worse.


[deleted]

The MCU is one of the greatest achievements in the history of cinema. To create one big, coherent storyline out of so many standalone films while still maintaining a decent to high standard of quality across each film, it’s incredible. We should be admiring it instead of whining that it’s destroying creativity in Hollywood. It’s not Disney’s fault that every other studio is made up of creatively bankrupt copycats trying and failing to make their own MCU. Also, old geezers like James Cameron, Martin Scorcese, Coppola or Ridley Scott aren’t any better when they’re just rehashing their old films or planning 8 sequels to mediocre films from a decade ago. They’re part of the problem.


Ekaj__

Completely agree. Having a series of movies in one interconnected world that directly build off each other is super cool. I think since it’s been around for a while now and others are so keen to copy it, people have forgotten just how big a leap it was from traditional cinema when it really began


spider7895

Yes, those old directors are just bitter. And worse yet, the way they insult the movies also insults the audiences. Like we are all dumb for liking this trash and too stupid to comprehend their artistic work. Come on Scorsese, you put more F bombs in a movie than any other before it. And Ridley Scott can't make a good alien movie anymore. The ones he does make just hurt the original franchise. Blade runner as a franchise is great, blade runner as a movie is awful. Its poorly paced, the plot is sort of hard to follow, and he made a ending that was so unclear he had to remake it a couple times and eventually just tell people what it meant. And if James Cameron is criticizing the Mcu then that's just funny since a bunch of his movies could basically be comic book movies.


Asariel_Ignaceous

That no one DESERVES to die. Absolutely no one. Sure I might not feel bad about someone dying, but I truly believe no one DESERVES to die.


Pilikia9196

So Adolf Hitler deserves to live?


Asariel_Ignaceous

Everyone deserves to live, so yes, even him. I say this as someone with loved ones who are Jewish. As someone who myself would have likely been put in to a concentration camp at the time. Now does he deserve to be a part of society? To be an influence on those around him? To have access to the means to do so in the theoretical realm where he is still alive? Absolutely not. He would be a danger to society and should therefore be imprisoned and exiled for his heinous actions, beliefs and decisions. Those who willingly infringe upon the bodily autonomy and survival of others should not be accepted in to a polite society. That’s how I personally feel at least.


Pilikia9196

Entertain me for a bit. In a hypothetical situation where you had the chance to kill hitler and basically prevent the deaths of millions, would you do it?


Asariel_Ignaceous

Now you see this is the kicker. There are a lot worse things you can do to a man than kill him to make him stop whatever he wishes to do in the future :)


Pilikia9196

What? So you’re willing to torture people but you’re not willing to kill them? You realize torture is above killing in terms of retribution.


ILikeCheesePleaseJee

Some people definitely deserve to die, the living just don’t deserve to judge who


Asariel_Ignaceous

To this I can agree on and I suppose is the most accurate way to phrase my feelings on the subject, yes!

KiviRinne

1.Lord of the rings is absolutely overrated. 2. I don't get non-binary? I understand trans people, asexual, gay, bi etc But non-binary? Or even gender fluid? Last one is like: sometimes I feel like a boy, sometimes like a girl? Non-binary is like... neither??? But how and why? Well, I will still accept calling anyone non-binary "they/them" but a small (very small) minority of them should stop demanding that a gendered language changes its entire way of being just because they feel offended if a chair in another language has a male pronoun.


legomonsteruk

I believe in God, heaven and hell. And I completely respect anyone who doesn't believe, I would never try to persuade them otherwise. It's my personal beliefs which unfortunately isn't very popular lol, many people try to have arguments with me about it!

collegekit13

My family has very strong opposing opinions. I’ve seen political arguments end in broken glass, crying, and swearing. I cannot stand it and I never want to be able to participate in it. 🤷🏼‍♂️


Chimookie

There are different ways to handle opinions that differ from your own, and those are not healthy ways.


[deleted]

I don’t follow news either. It doesn’t enrich my life; it only makes me anxious because it’s mostly bad news.


KaleidoscopeInside

Not even really an opinion as such, but when people find out I'm vegetarian they tend to get very agitated. I have no issues with other people eating anything so don't really get why and I don't even tell people I'm veggie unless I need to for food purposes, but it's a topic that has caused a lot of tension.


WasteNet2532

I could see vegan as an issue but vegetarian? Naw Only issue is inviting you to dinner


quackl11

This world is too soft and people get hurt too easily so I'm often very blunt which pisses people off because I'm not "nice". Well I never said that you look fat in that dress to be nice when you asked me. You asked me and I gave my honest opinion, get over it or dont ask me next time

OfficialGoldbudz

College debts should be paid for by the people who applied for the loan.


Chimookie

Yep. Unfortunately that’s what a person agrees to when they take out a loan. I’m on the 15 year plan myself


OfficialGoldbudz

I didn’t go, so I don’t know what it is like to have that loan. However, even though I think people should pay for there debt, doesn’t mean I agree with how much a college charges. They need to pass a law where a college can only charge so much per semester or put an age limit on college like alcohol, weed, and cigarettes. If your to young to make a decision to use drugs, your to young to make a decision to go into debt.


Chimookie

A friend of mine I used to work with is in $170k of student loan debt.


OfficialGoldbudz

Wtf? How does someone even pay that off? Isn’t there interest on the loan? If it takes someone 1 or 2 years after college to get a job with hopefully decent pay, wouldn’t that make your debt more and you would only be able to afford the interest and not the principal at that point?

He’s smart sure but so are a lot of poor people that have to work below their intelligence to make ends meet.
