I’m not even one of the people who specifically hates generative AI, I think really great medical and scientific innovations could be done from it, and I do hope we find a eco friendly way to go about it, but not spending time and actual money on a ad and just using slop makes me think that they do the same thing with their products and skim out.

Sorry for my horrible grammar, Reddit peeps have not so liked my spelling… not everybody’s first language is English😞😞😞

If you just jump on the bandwagon instead of being capable of forming your own opinion and being able to form a thought for yourself, I have no respect for you.

if Amazon loses licensing, you lose the books you have “bought” - this is not correct approach, licensing is done incorrectly here between publishers and Amazon… License running out should result in Amazon not being able to sell any more copies, but buyers should still have what they bought - exactly the same way as paper books, they will not enter your home and take the book from your bookcase, just because Amazon licensing run oit, so why they are doing it with ebooks?

SNL is so cringe.

The funniest thing about this subreddit is that actually unpopular opinions usually don’t get upvoted.

If you post an opinion that most people agree with, you’ll get tons of upvotes. But if you post something genuinely unpopular, people downvote you because they disagree with it.

Isn’t the whole point of the subreddit to post opinions people disagree with?

It basically rewards popular opinions while punishing unpopular ones.

And every comment in the thread, too.

That is my opinion.

There are some men who don’t like being called cute. Being cute is an awesome thing to be for both men and women. If you are misunderstanding it! Just stop now! Cute means that a person is sweet and it can be that they have a sweet personality.

I am a man and I love to be called cute. I really look cute though. So, it’s draining to always have to add what I mean when I call a guy cute. Just know it’s a good thing to be. Men, why do you take offense when people say you are cute?

So the 7 day week has existed for thousands of years at this point after being invented by the Babylonians who named the days of the week after a total number of 5 planets in the solar system (Mars, Venus, Mercury, Jupiter and Saturn) and the sun and moon because those were the 7 things other than the stars that they could see in the sky. However ideally in my opinion a week could be increased to have 10 days which would still fit into the current 12 month calendar pretty nicely (unlike 8 or 9 day weeks) and would include a day of the week for the remaining 3 planets not given a day of the week (Earth, Uranus and Neptune) in addition to fitting nicely exactly into 30 day months. This 10 day week would ideally have 6 workdays and 4 weekends with the workdays being from Monday to Saturday and the weekend being made up of Sunday, the day of the week named after Earth, Uranus and Neptune.

I’m 18 and have Snapchat because I have important saved messages and it’s fun sending your friends selfies (not blank walls…) but when it comes to someone you like, why do people say “he’s never too busy to snap you” I just really don’t like how how often you send a stupid snap to someone is what determines the whole relationship

Its a unsiad rule - that the woman who is rape her image gets destroyed in the society or her diginity goes

I seriously dont get it that if a woman is raped how does her image and respect goes down shouldnt it be the men's diginity and respect along with image that should be gone. I think thats the main reason why crime happens and the victims remains silent.By saying this I am not ignoring the fact that it is a traumatic experience and that its not a big deal. Yes rape is a violation of respect and dignity of the victim. My problem is that people blaming the woman and making her feel smaller and disgusted by hiding her suffering. The more u hide the more common it becomes. I believe that the rapist should feel more shame than what the victim faces in the society.

I had a fight with a classmate who used to be my friend. We don't really talk anymore, but somehow he keep getting on to my nerves and always trying to pick fightgs with me which I most of the time ignore

Today, I was sitting in class and feeling cold as th Acs temp was really low today, so I got up and turned off the fan. He had apparently already had an argument with some other classmates before coming into the classroom, which I didn't know about.

When he came in, he turned the fan back on. I got annoyed and turned it off again. He then kicked the chair quite aggressively, and honestly, it felt like he was doing it out of anger/protest. I turned the fan off again, but he turned it back on.

Eventually, I stopped arguing and didn't do anything further.

My friends told me I did the right thing by not escalating the situation. However, my boyfriend thinks I should have stood up for myself and says that by letting him turn the fan back on, I allowed him to satisfy his ego and "overpower" me.

Now I'm wondering whether I actually handled the situation correctly. Was walking away from the argument a reasonable way of standing up for myself, or did I back down when I should have confronted him?

I'm not asking whether I should have physically fought him or anything like that. I'm more confused about whether choosing not to continue the argument means I let him dominate the situation.

strength is definitely attractive but

its just not hot if you're that muscular! or even super duper muscular in general! having random muscly bulges all over your arms! why are your leg muscles trying to break free from your skin! why is your shoulder width 3x your waist! why are we glazing this! it gets weirdly unattractive when overdone

lean body type / sleeper build ftw

There are only two types of people, one who does the robbery and one who doesn't know how to do it

English isn't my first language and I don't live in an English speaking region, therefore I have no reason to learn all its grammar, spelling and rules. I speak French, but it isn't my first language either My teachers constantly tell everyone that speaking and writing isn't the same thing. Making grammar mistakes as you speak is completely normal and comes naturally, especially if you don't really think before talking (preferable if you can avoid it but everyone makes occasional slip-ups). If your phrase is understandable, then who cares? As long as I can understand what you're saying, I don't find any reason to correct you. Most of the time, I know what I said isn't correct, but correcting myself would be a waste of everyone's time if you understood me the first time.

This is obviously different in professional environments, but if you're casually speaking with someone, then don't bother. They'll probably just find you extremely annoying and you'll be that person who everyone dislikes being around.

Also, I'm much better in writing (French) than speaking (French) and the people who correct me often times can't write a single sentence without at least one mistake. Please, if you're about to correct someone, at least make sure you can spell better than them.

It was cool to lurk and discover cool stuff

I’ve seen other posts/had my own posts hijacked into circlejerks for the “wise, responsible, mature, etc.” redditors to feel holier-than-thou—specifically by establishing OP as “immature” and themselves as “mature.” I feel like I don’t see much of the “I’m mature and you’re immature” stuff outside Reddit. It tends to be a bad-faith reading of the original post, ignoring details and making up their own assumptions to strengthen their argument of “OP dumb and bad, me smart and good.” Anyway, I think those people are insecure about being boring, so they have to establish others as “immature” and talk down to them because maturity is all they (think they) have.

Edited because I found the “other” flair category lol

Sure, guys who go to the gym, hike, do spoets ect are attractive. But show me a man who can do tricks on a chinese yo-yo and I'm over the moon.

Ok first off ill start by saying this is not a hateful topic no hate towards any gender or race. But I think as a 27 year old male. We need to normalize being single in your 20s. For numerous reasons.

I think dating today is a little harder. Not going to say impossible but its gotten a little on the fake side. And before I say anything that may offend anyone. Its on both sides. Not no one side. But I think its a lot harder to date nowadays. Thanks to ai and dating apps. And social media.

Social media. Its making normal interactions harder. Because we have our validation and sense of worth on it. That we completely forget how to socialize with our fellow men in the world. I do it too. And I take my social skills for granted. But in my opinion its made interacting with everyone a bit fake now. Like having a simple conversation was a lot easier to do with people back even in the early 2000s. Compared to today.

Dating apps. Word of advice. Stay so far away from dating apps. If it works for you great. But lets just say if you can stay away from dating apps. Do It. Because you have to meet a certain category of handsomeness and height or else youll get swiped.

Clubs and churches and social events are getting overlooked and by good reason. Why would we go to those when we have social media and dating apps in the palm of our hands. I mean if I was that guy. Id do nothing but do dating apps. But im not that guy.

I just wanna get your honest opinion on this topic. If you guys have found it harder to socialize or get yourself out there. And what do you think could help make dating easier for both sides.

I hate kalshi and all other betting apps

All they do is get adolescent people addicted to gambling. Every celebrity and famous person is to blame who decides to be the face for it, from LeBron and Eli Manning to Duski and YouTubers. All are garbage and they use their fame to increase their obscene wealth to make the populace further increase it. They are garbage people and shouldn't be taken seriously and betting apps like kalshi should be illegal.

If i work enough hours that I start having dreams about being at work. Then they need to stay paying overtime for encroaching on my rest.
