The irony is, if she had gotten a 35% that would have been the end of it. This whole thing blew up because she got a 0. That’s why I feel like 0’s should never be given on an assignment unless literally nothing was turned in. A 0 comes off as personal; even in cases like this where the person absolutely deserves to fail, it casts doubt on the impartiality of the grader.

But giving a 35%? Well that’s different. That’s acknowledging the person attempted the assignment, they just did a pathetically shit job at it. In some ways, it’s more humiliating than a 0, because the grader at least tried to give you some credit, but is still highlighting how fucking stupid you are.

So what exactly did you do to piss off the Amazon Returns department? Because from my experience, they are the most lenient company when it comes to returns/refunds. I’ve had stuff arrive broken, or scuffed up, or it was the wrong item, or I just plain didn’t like a product and every time I’ve been able to submit a return without having to interact with a single person.

I feel like you either have to be lying about your experience, didn’t even try to return it, or did something that got your account flagged.

Some kind of meaning behind them, huh?

Let me ask you something.

Can you count…

All the way…

To shfifty-five?

DO IT! Just fucking do it! Stop drawing lines in the sand and stepping back when Russia crosses them. They are daring the EU to respond because they think they are weak and won’t do jack shit. And you know what? So far, they are right.

Frothing at the mouth

I’m not sure it was a lie, it’s the kind of thing that’s so minor it’s easy for someone on the marketing team to just not know about.

It’s like if a snack company put out a message saying they used no animal products and then later found out that a derivative of beeswax was used to lubricate some of the mechanisms in their packing machine.

If you want to be absolutely inflexible and refuse to allow any exceptions to the rules, no matter the circumstances, that’s fine. But you’ve gotta recognize the irony in that line of reasoning being more machine-like than human.

And off to Fox News to be a pundit, still making millions of dollars per year.

It’s not really an infection, but compartment syndrome is something that can happen in legs after an injury. Basically internal swelling of the muscles which starts to damage tissue once the pressure gets too high. It causes severe pain, and in some cases can eventually require amputation if left untreated.

The treatment is… brutal. It’s called a fasciotomy and fits well with the setting of pre-modern medicine as it hasn’t really changed much since the 1800’s. Basically, a doctor makes a long, deep cut, almost down your entire leg, until your leg is basically filleted open. Sometimes, multiple of these cuts are needed all around the leg. The cuts must be kept open until pressure is relieved, which can take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks, at which point they are stuctured up. I would recommend avoiding pictures if you are squeamish.

Teratoma

I’ve often thought about how society might be different if every year or so, we all voted on who was the worst person in the world, and then executed them. Similarly, voting for the worst company in the world and then dissolving it entirely, with executives and board members imprisoned. The absolute worst individuals and companies would have significant societal pressure to avoid being monsters. It wouldn’t even matter if everything they did was legal, it’s just a matter of public opinion.

Yea, I don’t know how anyone can have lived through the last decade and still think “no one is above the law”. What a crock of shit that turned out to be. The rich and powerful absolutely are above the law and anyone who thinks otherwise has their head in the sand. Literally the only time rich people get punished is when then have committed crimes against other rich people.

Like, does OP really think anything would happen if there was proof of them fucking kids? There could be a full video of Trump tearing a 6 year old boy in half and feasting on his heart, and literally nothing would happen to him.

What price? I don’t see any price for the onions. I see a price for the basil behind them. You wouldn’t be posting misleading bullshit for fake internet points, would you OP?

You can hate them. You can, personally, dislike their games. But to pretend like The Last of Us doesn’t fall under every definition of a “good game” is just being willfully obtuse.

Like, I don’t personally like racing games, but I’m not going to smugly claim that games like Forza aren’t good. I’d have to really like the smell of my own farts to make that claim.

The Fediverse is a fucking fantasy world. Some real shit takes from people who live on the fringe who have convinced themselves that everyone thinks and acts like them.

How inconvenient to only be able to upgrade on 95% of PC’s out there.

Just like that pesky “internet” thing people are always talking about.

I’m just a random person scrolling through the comments, but it’s a strawman fallacy in this instance.

I’m still of the VERY strong opinion that Hillary and Kamala didn’t lose because they were women, but because they were Hillary and Kamala.

I don’t know, but maybe we shouldn’t base our gender litmus test off of literally the most unlikeable women the DNC could have picked.

If we’re going by US population (or most western countries population) women are not a minority. There are slightly more women than men, about 98 men per 100 women according to the 2024 census.

Sure it’s a technicality, but you claimed the opposite was a technicality, so I figured it was important to clarify that your technicality is technically false.

Lol the guy downvoting you because his pathetic “gotcha” didn’t work.
