"If I Catch A Baseball At A Major League Game And You Send Your Kid Over, You're The @$$hole, Not Me"
"I've been going to baseball games my entire life. I have well over 1,000 games attended. One of my life long dreams is to catch a baseball in the stands. To me that is a chosen from the baseball gods moment. Lately I've been seeing more and more when someone catches the ball a parent will send a kid over to collect their prize. Everyone boos the person who caught the ball for not giving it to the kid. The person who caught the ball has likely been waiting since they were that kid's age to catch one and now they have an entire section if not stadium bullying them to give it to some little kid that will have 0 appreciation for it because they just did what their parents told them and went and asked for it.
Obviously if I ever catch a ball I will break it to the kid that inevitably gets sent over gently that no, I will not give them the ball AND I will take my boos. But to the parents who send their sex trophy over to collect something that they aren't entitled to, you are horrible parents/people and I don't feel bad that your kid is sad now, it's your fault."

Ode,
People should be encouraged to bash Jada more. Well done. LOL
Also, I'm a US citizen and I agree with #15 and #35. F@*$! American exceptionalism. Our opinion of "ourselves" is laughable most times. We need to take it down a notch or two.

#2 I disagree. For the depicted car in particular (Tesla), lots (if not most) functions can be controlled form the knobs on the steeringwheel without ever letting go of it. Or even by voice control. There is no need to be looking at the screen all the time.
#8 and deny the kid the trophy he is ENTITLED to??
#13 in general, it is not up to each of us to punish people for what they do wrong. Any civilized country has courts and prison systems for that. If you don't want to support someone in their work for how they behave outside work that is up to you, but don't judge people that think otherwise. Like the rising cancel culture. What kind of f@#knuggets thinks it's OK to have someone fired for being themselves outside work? Gina Carano is a good example. Should that apply to everyone? If you neglect your children, does that mean you should be fired from working as a librarian? I've seen stories about the mob trying to get holywood stars fired because "they are @$$hoels in real life and won't let fans take pictures when seen in restaurants" or whatever. W. T. F!!??
#20 quit whining. Not that many generations ago most people had to work all day every day to put food on the table. And you're free to work less, but don't expect to live in a downtown apartment sipping latte at the local cafe all day.
#24 kind of overlaps #13. Yes, he acts like a teenager with no impulse control some times, but look at what he has actually accomplished. EVs would not have been where it is today if it wasn't for Elon and Tesla. I 100% guarantee it. And Spaxe-X too. We're all gonna reap the benefits of that later on.

#13 I hope he’s in prison, whoever he is.
#15 When I have been in foreign countries, the USA is never in the news. I think Americans think everyone else in the world cares about them, but they don’t.

Unpopular opinion: We don’t care about BLM, black history month, woman’s history month, your homosexual lifestyle, or whatever other degenerate issue is being pushed on us by big tech. Give your phony BS a rest and stop trying to make everyone agree with your stupid nonsense.

Renny, not “we”, but “you”. And I couldn’t care less about your whiny opinion.
Agree with most, except #10, #15. And #32 only because I don’t care about their personal lives and haven’t seen anyone laughing at Will Smith. What would they even be laughing at?
Oh, and whoever doesn’t want to know anything about other countries can definitely control the media they watch and stay in their little cushy bubble, so that’s idiotic.

#18 I absolutely wrong. There are so many lies on wikipedia (especially around politics) it's almost not worth using as a reference. Never use it as a primary source. Remember XKCD's concept of Citogenesis? It's real.

Never use it as primary source, but IMHO it's a really good collection of sources to dig deeper into a topic.
Don't teach that Wikipedia is an unreliable source. Just teach how to use Wikipedia properly and all will be good

#35 By the same token, as an American I could give a rat's @$$ about the British royal family. Who cares about a group of spoiled brats who no longer have any authority and are paid when the money could be better used to help others. The whole feudal system should be trashed, it's outdated and racist.

most of this sounds like a bunch of bullsh#t written by spoiled little first world b*tches. Honestly none of this as any effect on your life if you don't care about any of it. You don't want to work for the rest of your life? then don't no one other than your desire for possessions is making you work. You feel bad for will smith because that hoe cheated on him? boo-f@#king-hoo, hes still married to her so hes obviously ok with it. Stop caring about sh#t that has nothing to do with you, and realise that 99.99% of the sh#t happening around you has nothing to do with you, and your feelings about it make no difference to what happens. If you don't like your situation, change it, and if not willing to change it, then you like it enough to leave it the way it is so stfu about it.
