  • It's like when you take your glasses off.. Everyone is like, your eyes look so small now! I've never noticed you have such small eyes!

    Eventually everyone is like.. you look so pretty without glasses on! Then your contacts start bothering you so you take a break, and everyone tells you that the glasses look so nice..

    Just make your own decision on your name, people have no idea what actually looks good, they only notice when it changes.

    Maybe people just like your face no matter if you have glasses or not. :P

    I used a bunch of xX's in my forum name once...back in 2003. My old AIM had them too, though I made it about the same time.

  • I had a very, very long argument with someone over whether nuking a city of 2 million people is alright and being very disgusted that Americans are so eager to lay waste to Pyongyang.

    I just despise America and American society. Surprisingly, this makes me in a tad sour mood for a nuke game.

    What concerns me about American society, being American myself, is the way that people don't really think through what they're saying, doing, or supporting. A lot of people have no capacity for critical thinking, empathy, or research. People go on about 'fake news', but are all too willing to believe anything that comes across their Facebook news feed or Google search...as long as it supports their worldview.

    In the end, Americans are becoming a people who see what they believe, not the other way around.

    Agreed.  Being an American as well, I'm a bit disappointed with what I see when it comes to the majority.

    You can tell them that the clouds are really cotton candy, and there's a large slice of people out there that would believe it without actual proof.

    The whole "Fake News" bit has been a bit unnerving, to be honest.  I already didn't like Trump, but that's adding the fact that any news outlet that talks smack about him is automatically "Fake News."  And the sad part?  People are falling for it and agreeing with him without hesitation.

    This resurgence of Nazis and vocal white supremacists, his complete downplaying of their actions in recent events, his continued badgering and demeaning people that don't agree with him..

    it makes me worry about where America is even heading.

    Americans imo have a very tenuous grasp on reality, but I don't feel like ranting rn.

    I just don't get how a nation supposedly rooted in Christian morals can be so evil, vicious and cruel.

  • Because we're the land of the entitled, home of the uneducated.

    Most people here would rather just live in their own bubble, and fuck everyone else, who cares about them?

    It's really a depressing mindset.

    Compared to the people of Pyongyang and NK in general, we have a very solid grasp on reality indeed...

  • On a purely academic level, current events are making learning about American History incredibly interesting. (For instance, we were learning about the events before and after the Civil War in the past few weeks, and one can imagine the parallels and references). This is a period of history that will be objectively fascinating once it is all wrapped up.

    Objectively. When it's done.

    As of now, on every single other level from top to bottom; holy snap crackle pop what the smeg is even happening please be ok.

    Comparing uneducated workers and farmers living under a totalitarian dictatorship with no access to the outside world to first world Americans with the entire human civilization at their finger tips via the internet and enjoying a (relatively) free democratic society for granted isnt a sound argument.

    And who are you comparing Americans to when you say they have a tenuous grasp on reality, exactly?
    North Korea just launched an ICBM over Japan.. I don't support massive retaliation or any such thing, but I can understand if people are angry and irrational about it. This was a warning shot fired at the heart of the possibility of peace.. Pyongyang is playing a dangerous game.
