This may or may not be inspired by the nebula original abolish everything, a show I have not watched.
Digital billboards. That degree of rapid pace advertising is toxic, also those fuckers are bright AF.
I would extent this to billboards in general. Its annoying and nonsensical to advertise private products in public spaces
I would extend this as well to solicitors.
People saying “blog” when they mean post. You did not write a new blog on your blog, you wrote a new post on your blog.
You do not drive your car on the car. You drive your car on the road.
Billionaires.
Also, the propagation of the idea that you are poor because of the actions of even poorer people.
The 9/10 extension on gasoline pricing.
When this fuel was 13¢ per gallon, sure some folks might want to compete with finer-grained pricing.
It’s time to drop that pretense
Is it by magical means? Then name calling, mostly to watch Trump deal with it.
The need to pee at night.
The ability for human beings to advance scientific knowledge further than it currently exists.
Something needs to protect the rest of the galaxy from us.
Ah, the Amish Philosophy.
Pick a time period and stick to it like it’s a moral virtue
LOL, the Amish Philosophy.
Nothing so crude. I simply think it’s better for the universe if we don’t propagate it, because we’re not a good enough example for other species to follow yet. It’s not about respecting “God’s” law so much as acknowledging humanity’s limitations. We’re a pathetic species, not ready for rulership over multiple planets, let alone multiple solar systems. My comment simply suggests I don’t have confidence we ever will be. This has nothing to do with the Amish belief that we’re better in a simplistic state; just that the universe is better without us in whatever state.
You include earth in that?
I guess I’m wondering if you’d agree things would be better if humans didn’t exist.
Largely, yeah. I think it would have been fine if we’d stayed in the Iron Age. Things started getting fucked up with the Industrial Revolution.
Did you know that that painting was the reserve of the rich before the industrial revolution and the invention of synthetic pigments?
Now we let toddlers play with paints at preschool.
Motion-sensing faucets in public bathrooms. I feel like there is somebody behind the mirror trolling me every time.
I don’t understand why they don’t just have a foot pedal to activate those things. You could make an argument for handicapped people, but you could just have one sink use conventional knobs.
Probably because it’s cheaper to have it all be in one unit that’s easier to install. User experience has nothing to do with it.
The colour red so that way whenever somebody goes to “Red Lobster” all they see is “Lobster” on the sign.
Would this have the unfortunate side effect of also eliminating the color pink? What about purple and orange?
Dihydrogen monoxide.
Literally kills thousands of people a year.
I don’t know why people worry about this so much. You can literally wash it off with water.
No more internet gaming, all multiplayer gaming must be local, so that you can actually get your dumb ass up from the chair and punch (or be punched) by others, like our ancestors intended.
Money. It’s just a mechanism of control because those with the power to share never learned to do so. They’re the kids at the playground hogging the swing set while everyone else is getting wood chips kicked in their face. Humanity in a nutshell.
Maybe not humorous, but I hope it paints a picture.
News outlets taking quotes from company PR/employees and including them alongside facts about reality. “Company x does something horrible, here is the data. Meanwhile, the CEO says it’s inaccurate because bs reasonexcuse.”. So much of corporate media is this, we’ve nearly lost the expectation a news outlet have any sense of responsibility outside of an easy quote from the paid company representative. Every single employee quote should come with footer “but of course this person does pay their mortgage based on saying whatever the companies needs it to to continue doing what benefits it the most so this is idiotically biased”.
The now ultra-common usage of “whenever”, when they actually mean “when”.
I can’t fucking stand it. But it’s everywhere now. I have no idea how it got so common but I’m surrounded by people who use it incorrectly.
Green bell peppers. I hate the way they taste. Had someone tell me they don’t taste like anything. Ok then why even bother if there’s no taste?
Green bell peppers have a distinct taste. They also mature into other colors of pepper so your request is denied.
