I have decided that the thing that I hate most on Earth is technology protecting me from myself. I don't want to change my password every two weeks to a password I've never used before. I will decide for myself if my password is strong enough. FleeBeetyBod72654@^%#_!! should not be the bare...

You know, you could just turn off auto correct. That's usually the very first thing I do with a new phone. spellcheck too. I find it super frustrating if you write in more than one language and I know how to spell, so screw autocorrect!

Nah, not every poll is framed as a Hobson's choice. Only the ones that direct their viewers with intention, as you did. You're certainly right that you would have gained more exposure with the photo, but then you would have been just one of many, and forgettable because of it, since the guys...

I started in my 20's as well. My reasons were more straightforward. I liked sex and when I didn't have a partner I sought out alternate sources for it. I dated frequently so it was an off and on thing, as I didn't monger when I was attached to someone. Then I decided to try travel. That really...

What are you finding different? I'll bet a dollar that if the poll and the options are being framed in the same way on each board that option "A" is winning everywhere. Anybody want to take the bet?

I admire and enjoy intellectual discussion. Having said that, if you were really interested in it then you shouldn't have rigged both the premise and the poll. The premise as presented distinguishes between options as if they are the only paths to an outcome, which obviously is patently untrue...

yes, in the sense that you are actually interacting with people and not doomscrolling. Not more productive but less damaging. Also, people spend less time on MERB than they do on social media typically (there may be an exception or two. lol). For lurkers you run out of content too quickly to go...

Watching lots of TikTok is essentially like flushing your brain down the toilet. Still, people are the masters of their own time and can choose to do what they please. TikTok isn't the only time waster out there. It's entirely about measuring the opportunity cost of what you do.

I'm not really sure if I can go along with that entirely. Is it really weird because of the outfits? I would actually argue that it's less weird because if the outfits. Let's remove the outfits from scene entirely, for examination purposes. Imagine the same people doing what they're doing and...

I'm really struggling to see why people like this movie so much. I liked both Chris Hemsworth's and Halle Berry's performances and thought they did really well projecting their character personalities but I thought the writing was a bloody mess. There were so many unresolved issues at the end...

Yes we all have some degree of social masking, whether personally or a work, but the question of degree matters. This doesn't equate to social masking IMHO, although certainly it's a means of expression, I guess. It's like I can tap you on the shoulder to get your attention (let's make...

I've never understood that either. It just seems both sloppy and stupid from the client side.

Well, I have to give credit where credit is due. It's a novel way to self promote. Could be fun if enough people take the bait.

Yes, I know, but for chrissakes, you only have to read two lines and then make a tiny conscious decision not to send the message that the ad asks you not to. It's not hard. You can write literally anything else. The simple, short, friendly little ad only asks you not to send one type of message...

You put something up for sale on Facebook or Kijiji or whatever, you clearly write in the ad that if the ad is still up the object in question is still available, so please don't write to ask if it's available or not. Subsequently, 75% of the messages you get are "Is it still available?". Can't...

my (admittedly limited) understanding is that it isn't a kink at all and is generally a non-sexual practice, so not sure your analogy fits, but again I admit to ignorance and am perfectly happy to be corrected by anyone more knowledgeable if that's the case.

somebody? anybody? Why would anyone do this? What is the benefit? I must not be seeing something because to me it just looks pointless and utterly ridiculous.

Meh. If you're not a public figure (which is almost everybody) then most of this shit is completely irrelevant. For Average Joe the worst fallout will be an impacted marriage or potentially (but not likely) a work issue, which most people will never hear anything about, and if they did they...

There is a big difference between an SP that doesn't have any reviews on the board and one who doesn't allow reviews. Also, contrary to some beliefs not having reviews on the board does not stop discussion about SPs in back channels. It does, however, stop those who don't have back channel...

Arcade Fire earworm?
