  • Weird thing to say after spending so much time and effort telling me how doing what I like is wrong and unpopular,

    I have no idea what your problem is? I never claimed in any way it is wrong, I also showed that it used to be way more popular than it is today.
    I just state the reasons I think it kind of fell out of fashion.

    but thanks for the permission, I guess

    It is not a permission, that wouldn’t make any sense whatsoever. On the contrary it’s an acknowledgement of you not just following the mainstream but doing what you like.

    I have no idea why you would be butthurt about any of this?


  • I suppose you mean “minus” instead of minutes.
    I suspected something of that sort. Back then using teaspoons was considered somewhat casual.
    And now you find the old ways kind of neat. Yes the old cake fork has a slight advantage in that it can be used as a fork, and it typically has an edge to “cut” if it’s a proper one. But in reality those “advantages” don’t really matter, at least not for most people.
    A cake can be cut with a teaspoon just as well, and for most cakes the fork function doesn’t really work, and in my experience the fork is used as a spoon anyway.

    But hey, have fun. Do what you like. 😀

    Yes. I don’t see how that could be offensive, because I don’t think anybody identify as humorless idiots. So go right ahead.
    There’s a huge difference between targeting a demographic that exist and one that kind of doesn’t really.
    But apparently you don’t have the intellectual capacity to understand that.
    Obviously I don’t identify as a humorless idiot. I even noted the drawings are kind of funny, it’s the joke that isn’t.

    Of course I can, it follows logically from your opposition to my post questioning it.
    It is also logically in line with the fact that you suggest “librarian” as a better example than “foreigner”.
    Thinking those 2 posts make sense and are OK, but the examples I gave you consider sociopathic, shows you can’t really distinguish between what is OK and what is not.

    That is not reasoning, but examples of other groups people make fun of.
    You are failing basic logic, and failing to answer the question.

    Everyone should be made fun of.

    That was what I responded to. Because that means making fun of the above groups too.
    But maybe you too is a sociopath extremely insensitive?

    Why exclude one group from humor? Everyone should be made fun of.

    OK what are these other groups? Redheads, handicapped, foreigners, women, fat people, small people?

    What are these groups that should be made fun of?
    You are reasoning like a true sociopath.
    Making fun of people for doing the morally correct thing is simply wrong.





  • Complete and utterly false, USA has that reputation because it’s true.

    USA has that reputation because it happens all the time, because it’s easy to make a lawsuit, even often finding a lawyer that will take the case it without payment, but take the fee as a percentage of the potential winnings. And because USA has insane rules of extremely high compensations.

    USA is not known for this because of a single anecdote, but because it’s very common, and because of the insane compensations, which is part of why it is so common to also try with what would be a frivolous suit in any other country.

    Point in case would also be the Apple lawsuit against Samsung, where part of the case was as simple as a tablet being a fucking tablet! When even Star Trek of the 60’s realized that it was a convenient form factor.
    Apple won on just about all points of the case, but in following years they were completely dismantled, with decisions that the case didn’t have a basis, and the patents were interpreted way to widely.
    This was a HUGE case that cost enormous amounts of money for both sides, and the only true winners are the lawyers. The US judicial system in this regard is completely rotten and that is being abused for frivolous cases that would be thrown out in other countries.
