Wait, I need to buy stock in Champagne first

thats more creative than anything PizzaCake has ever written

Make fun of them all you want, but maybe don’t go with the most obvious jokes of all time

This is the political version of, “it didn’t ring up? It must be free”

PizzaCake is political Garfield

It’s not clever, it’s not funny, it’s not edgy, it’s not smart… it’s the predictable safe, tired, thing and for some reason people eat it up

“HAHA, Mondays do suck!”

“Right, why cover your face if you’re so proud?”

Genius level creativity here, definitely not the same tired joke everyone makes all of the time and have been making for years

You don’t have to but we don’t have time to get to know every single person in the world on a personal level, and the way someone looks can tell you a lot about them

I always heard it as, “you wear a hat to be associated with other people that wear that same hat”.

You put on a cowboy hat so that people assume you like big trucks and country music.

You’re free to walk around looking like human trash but then also you shouldn’t be surprised when people assume you are human trash. Remember, you don’t always just represent yourself. You represent other people in your social group. Like if you’re a teenager you represent teenagers.

The assumption is that all the nerds that play cards at comic book stores are fat, dirty, and stinky because enough of the nerds that paly cards at comic book stores showed up fat, dirty and stinky that this became the stereotype.

Had they all shown up in suits we’d probably have a different opinion of them. It doesn’t matter if they’re nice people, we have no idea, we didn’t get the opportunity to talk to them… all we know is that they look mega-gross so we assume they’re all mega-gross. And now, if you admit that you like playing cards at comic book stores, we’ll all assume you’re mega gross too

So, it really would have been helpful if enough of them had cared what others thought of them enough to clean up a bit so they didn’t destroy the reputation of all the other people who wear that same hat

And if you’re a business owner, if you let people look like this in your business, it can hurt your business. There’s a reason we all assume Wal-Mart is trashy as fuck and that’s because the people shopping at Wal-Mart have a tendency to go there looking trashy as fuck. So much so there use to be a website dedicated to looking at all the insane ways Wal-Mart shoppers dressed

Depends, I would say it’s a show of respect

I’m aware other people are around and I’m going to present myself in a way that is un-offensive to those people. And not just other customers, but the staff as well

Does it matter at McDonalds? no, McDonalds is a pretty casual place where you would expect people to show in casual attire; be that pajamas because they’ve been being lazy all day, suits because they’re at lunch during work, or dirty clothes because they’ve been doing manual labor… whatever

But showing up to a nicer place in casual clothes basically says to everyone, “I have about as much respect for this place as I do Wal-Mart or McDonalds”; it can also say, “I don’t have much respect for myself” too. As in, “I’m too lazy to even put on clothes so I just walk around in my cookie monster pajamas”.

Neil respects nothing, and we respect Neil for that

OK, lets go through this again

OP accidentally upset her parents by saying “we have news”. He mother assumed it meant they were about to have a child when in reality she just wanted to let everyone know her two ducks were dating.

When the mother found out the news was about two dating ducks she got visibly upset; and when OP saw this look of sadness fall on her mothers face, instead of feeling bad, she thought it was funny. So funny that she’s decided she’s going to do this regularly

A user on Lemmy pointed out that this is a pretty mean thing to do. What kind of jerk gets pleasure from making other people visibly upset?

You tried to justify her mean behavior by saying it’s warranted because it’s mean for her parents to hound her for grandchildren.

This where I pointed out to you that even if OPs mother is hounding her for grandchildren, and that is mean, so what? One person being mean doesn’t justify you being mean too. Two wrongs don’t make a right. It’s sad that the entire world seems to be in a competition to see who can justify their mean behavior the best

If OPs mother is hounding OP for grandchildren, and it is mean, OPs mother probably has her own justification for it. If you and OP decide to be mean in return, you do so with justification of your own. Both people are being mean and trying to justify why their mean behavior is better than the other person mean behavior

It’s sad that at least one of you can’t just be nice.

It’s sad that the entire world seems to be in a competition to see who can justify their mean behavior the best… instead of, you know, just being nice

And then you responded by trying to justify your mean behavior the best… proving you learned nothing

If I’m also a bad person I’m a good person

is that the logic here because that doesn’t make any sense

It’s like the whole world is in a competition to see who can justify being the biggest asshole the best

That’s all I want to do

If I paid for it either on disc or something like Amazon I would like to DL a copy I can keep

I’m not trying to download the summer blockbuster currently at the movies or anything. I’m not trying to just download a million movies and have a massive collection I never watch. I just want backups of the films I already paid for

Which is a small handful of films I bought so I could one day watch them with my kid when they’re a bit older

do i need to use a VPN or anything?

Father, Son, and The Holy Ghost… I believe

Because I don’t care if a I like someone or not, I’m not going to lie about what actually happened

oh, sorry… this was not for you

Well, that’s embarrassing

Self driving cars being dangerous, idk, that’s your claim not mine. YOu got a source to back up that they’re causing death and destruction?

That’s not what the film is about though… spoilers ahead

I don’t know how to prove I’m a human… cock shit asshole with fucking toejam stuck in my dickhole… is that something AI would say? Does that work for you.

Anyway,

https://www.mckinsey.com/capabilities/quantumblack/our-insights/the-state-of-ai

In 2017 about 20% of companies were using AI. In 2025 that number was at 88%

“The share of respondents saying their organizations are using AI in at least one business function has increased since our research last year: 88 percent report regular AI use in at least one business function, compared with 78 percent a year ago. At the enterprise level, the majority are still in the experimenting or piloting stages with approximately one-third reporting that their companies have begun to scale their AI programs”

“The use of AI overall is broadening within organizations. Respondents increasingly report that their organizations are using AI in more business functions. More than two-thirds of respondents now say their organizations are using AI in more than one function, and half report using AI in three of more functions.”

“By industry, the use of AI agents is most widely reported in the technology, media and telecommunications, and healthcare sectors.”

“Many companies, particularly smaller ones, have yet to integrate AI deeply across their workflows… Nearly half of respondents from companies with more than $5 billion in revenue have reached the scaling phase, compared with 29 percent of those with less than $100 million in revenues”

I’m not a historian but I believe the sad truth is that they saw them like animals; capable of being trained to do jobs but not smart enough to understand more complex issues or choose the tasks themselves

Like a dog. You can train your dog to guard your house or hunt birds but you probably don’t trust your dog to vote

It’s fucked up

we’re going to need a source on that
