Oh man. My old Walgreens had these and I begged the manager at my new store not to let them put them in. They still haven’t made their way over yet, maybe the company realized how absolutely idiotic they are.

The only reason they wanted them is because when someone wasn’t standing directly in front of them they would play full screen ads for whatever was (supposed to be) inside.

“I have never been hit by a car because I understand the simple concept that if I stand in front of a moving car I will be hit with it”

“I have never been in debt because I understand the simple concept that if I spend more money than I have I will be in debt”

“I have never experienced a situation because I have never had to experience the situation”

You went to be an asshole on Reddit, got called out, then came here to cry about it and get people to agree with you. Unfortunately people think you’re an asshole here too.

It’s funny how people like yourself are so concerned with the health of the public when they see a fat person but usually say nothing to smokers, overly skinny people, people of normal weight with horrible diets, etc. Just mind your own fuckin business lol.

these new tires do deform with the ground

They aren’t saying they don’t. The foam and gel tires they mentioned also deform with the ground. Like you said, the rings only compress a bit at the site of the impact. Person you’re replying to is pointing out that pneumatic tires disperse this impact across the whole tire

This reminds me of that Russian parade a few months ago where they just rolled the same tank through a couple of times.

It seems I’ve made a simple mistake. No reason to come apart at the seams over it.

Grab one of those jugs from the garbage, fill it up with water, squeeze it. See where the water comes from, from there maybe you can figure out why it’s happening.

I’ve had a milk jug split on the bottom along one of the “seems” or ridges after slamming it down on the counter a little too excitedly. Maybe you’re used to the force-absorbency of a soft bag and transporting/ handling it in a way that’s breaking it?

This is really nice in a way I don’t really know how to describe. I get a feeling a lot of people that go unaccounted for in these events don’t have a lot of people close to them in their lives. It must feel at least a little good to know that someone was looking for you.

I also really like that people are calling to say they’re ok. Just an overall excellent display of humanity in a bad situation. Glad those calling in are ok.

Problem is that you have to work in the industry to fuck up that badly.

I haven’t read it in a while, but I kind of took the genetic engineering as a metaphor for being forced into the role/ class the ruling body wants you to be in

I see, that kinda makes sense.

I just haven’t deleted the app for nostalgias’ sake or something. I accidentally opened it out of habit the other day and it loaded a page before I backed out of it

The name and the icon made me assume it was a South Park reference
