It's supposed to be a good thing. I don't get the context of the stickers either unless it's just supposed to be a useless explanation of the situation.

Young crippling depression

He would do it during halo free for all for this exact reason lol

It was pretty funny tbh. He wouldn't do it all the time, just when a lobby was kinda dead. We were young immature teenagers during the beginnings of prank culture.

I had a friend that would play stuff like that over his mic. Load up a juicy YouTube video with lots of drama and let everyone in the lobby think it was real. Especially if he went AFK.

Why did you get the sleep study? It kinda sounds like you did it for fun if you don't know what you're potentially expecting from the results.

The worst thing a video game can do is be boring. Buggy games can be fun as you laugh at the absurdity of the physics. That was honestly one of the reasons I stuck with fallout 3, because I loved that you could turn someone supersonic with enough landmines. Even if the game crashes and you lose progress, you can't lose the fun you had playing the game.

I recently replayed fallout 3 after starfield failed to scratch my Bethesda itch, and I realized how much more alive the world felt (and how much less often I saw a loading screen when doing quests).

I'm not opposed to the idea of exchanging gifts... But can they be at least useful stuff that's not going to sit on a shelf until it's thrown in the trash?

Also, Christmas day is the worst possible day to give someone a Christmas themed item that's not immediately consumable.

Almost like the entire country was built over Indian burial grounds.

Let's be real though, there's no such thing as curses. This is a human situation problem.

First, you only read the headline of the article. If you're going to read headlines and speculate the rest of the story, you're going to create the most extreme version. Headlines are intentionally misleading and catchy to get you to click and share them. Read the actual story from multiple sources, and you'll probably find that the full story is a lot less crazy.

But yes, there are some stories that are just as gruesome as their headline. There's not much more to a story like "6 elementary school students dead after another school shooting" and these things happen here significantly more than elsewhere in the world. There's lots of debate about why and no one can agree on an exact reason, but it's definitely a situational issue. Meaning that if you took the exact same person who murdered children and gave them an entirely different life from birth, they likely will be an entirely different person. It's not something that some people are just "born" to do, it's something their situation points them to.

My personal opinion on the solution to the issue is to have ten to a hundred times more guidance counselors at school, with mandatory, regular confidential counseling/therapy for each student. (Of course with strong firearm regulations in the meantime.) But honestly I don't think the problem is going anywhere any time soon. The absolute craziness shown by millions of people during 2020-2021 shows that the people who need help the most will fight that help every step of the way.

Welcome to Twitter, every idea has to be distilled into the smallest version then skewed into ragebait.

That's an interesting way to say that your comment was worded very poorly.

Pro tip, your hot water tap probably gets to like 120, you can mix it with cold to get 100-103 pretty easily.

You're seriously wishing death to people for being weird?

We got the boomer at work to watch some anime, and he is pretty far from being a nerd. It's becoming slightly more mainstream.

It's probably because your comment leads everyone to believe that you think that the time and place are "never" and "nowhere"

Kids are going to be weird and use their imagination. They'll pretend to be an NFL player breaking tackles as they run through a crowded school hallway. They'll pretend to be Optimus Prime and pretend to transform into a truck. Or they'll pretend to be iron man blasting bad guys with their lazer palms.

The issue is when your friends have aged out of that behavior and you think it's still cool to Naruto run up to them all the time.

There's a really good book that helped me put my own realizations into more concrete terms.

And this book literally changed how I view behavior and how to permanently change behavior: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/22544758-triggers

Thank you. This made no sense to me at first.

I'm aware that 90% of memes are fake or extreme versions of a half truth.... but it's fun to play along and call OP a moron for encouraging their mom to buy crypto.
