Oooh, what a beautiful word! It'd fallen out of my vocab. Thanks for that.

You really are lmao...

But like.. why? Isn't that a waste of time, something you hold dear? That gives these religious leaders a lot of power over you, for you to practically be praying to every one of them, every day, probably spending more time praying than actual religious people are..

Unless you're just saying you do, to look edgy on the internet..? But who would do that..

You managed to take a paragraph about growing up with enough money to go on several hour long grocery trips every week to keep a fridge full of food that nobody had to eat to not go hungry.. and tried to make it sound like it was the struggle that motivated you to greatness.

I hope you gain some perspective man. I really do hope you're the very young Tech Bro I pegged you as because you've got time to grow out of this nasty behavior.. best of luck to ya.

I opened the thread thinking, "this has to be a bait post where the op just soapboxes about how much better at life they are than everyone else, and argues with literally everyone offering perspective" and I'm glad to see I was not wrong! Boy if your replies aren't some of the least self aware, most elitist stuff I've seen here so far.

I dunno man, why doesn't everyone with actual problems just ahh, buy an Android phone, learn how to program or do whatever the hell else you think everyone should be doing to just simply live the obviously better life that you have?

Oh wait, not everyone has the same opportunities as everyone else, and so not only may these options be unavailable to a lot of people, they may also be completely useless in solving someone's difficult life.

You sound like a Tech Bro in their early twenties who landed a sweet job out of college (that they didn't pay for) and wonders why people choose to be homeless. And before you try to correct me, that's what you sound like, so unless that's the persona you wanna give off, maybe try to listen to what people are saying instead of trying to find out how they're wrong.

Do you really think people with "difficult lives" are so stressed out because they forgot to take the garbage out multiple times? Seriously? Christ 😂

why?

Maybe English is a second language and the sarcasm was lost, maybe they're autistic and don't understand what the issue is; maybe they do need media literacy classes, is taking the chance on the first two possibilities worth the joke though? 🤷🏾‍♂️ I feel like there had to have been at least one time where you didn't understand something, even though you're so smart as to understand the topic of this post while others don't.

Why do you feel the need to insult someone else's intelligence for not understanding a reference to a 20 year old videogame's bad tourney rules? Do you find your own lacking?

John checking his xitter replies like "oh mylanta 😩"

Simple.

Just swallow a really long rope, then when it comes out the other end, have some people pull on both ends really hard.

I'm real sorry but if I had to visualize it so did you

I hope this doesn't come across as rude or pedantic, but a comma at the beginning of your sentence would help readability.

I was wondering what "weirdly high fructose corn syrup" they were testing with, for a moment there.

Every once in a while I'll just skip a night's sleep, then go the bed and wake up at the normal time the following day.

I used to recover after a day or two of normal sleep, but now that I'm getting a little "older" (ie not invincibly young anymore) I'm usually wrecked for a week after pulling this stunt.

Why? Usually videogames or YouTube and "because I can". No, I'm not the healthiest individual.

Oh I'm way past octoprint and have advanced to klipper, it just would be nice for similar applications, or for people who don't want to set up something similar.
