The general consensus seems that people pay for the convenience, not having to cook or clean and not having to wait very long for it. Which is kind of crazy because that seems like such a luxury to me lol. Like a lite version of having a personal chef.

I wonder what the price point is where people will stop paying for the convince and just do it themselves because it costs too much. I would’ve thought most people reached that point but apparently not.

@ThePicardManuever probably too busy posting to respond.

Same, I come back every few days and don’t feel like I’ve missed some big meme or event. Reddit you had to log on literally everyday or you could miss some joke and now it’s memed all over every sub and you have no clue what’s going on.

Can’t believe princess Leia hasn’t been mentioned yet.

“What the hell are you doing?” “Somebody has to save our skins. Into the garbage chute flyboy!”

Lol

Ed, Edd, n’ Eddy

Spongebob

Power Rangers

A lot of people have given good answers but I’ll throw in an anecdote.

Growing up my dad would talk about how important it is to follow laws. Don’t do drugs, don’t drink and drive, etc, but even the smaller ones like don’t jay-walk and never litter.

On a car ride I noticed he was going like 5 mph over the speed limit and I pointed it out. Something like “if its important to follow every law why are you breaking the speed limit”.

And he responded something about how it’s not an actual law but a recommended speed or something. But I kept saying it was a law and he was breaking it. He got pretty upset and finally said if I didn’t drop he’d take away my Gameboy for a weekend or something.

It could’ve been he was just annoyed his kid wouldn’t shut up but it seems like textbook cognitive dissonance that he couldn’t reconcile the two ideas that every law should be followed and it’s ok to break the speed limit a little and it got him upset.

Pokemon Red was an amazing part of my childhood

Definitely The Mummy starring Brenden Fraiser and Rachel Weisz

Hell yeah smiling friends meme format!!!

Monday morning, my alarm goes off. As I reach to turn it off I see a bright pink teddy bear standing at my bedside. Before I can react it blasts me in the face with a ray of pure happiness as I forget that wages have not been keeping pace with productivity or inflation.

Raycon earbuds. Use them everyday for work, decent wireless earbuds, would recommend.

Proto-brain rot lol

There’s an idea about “autistic ai” or something where you give ai an objective like “get a person from point a to b as fast as you can” and the ai goes so fast the g force kills the person but the ai thinks it was a success because you never told it to keep the person alive.

Though I suppose that’s more human error. Something we take as a given but a machine will not.

Lol it will literally never be enough for some people

I mean if my grocery store app could track my purchases and then give me a suggested weekly grocery list based on meals it knows I like or ate before that would be incredible. Hell I’d pay for that lol.

Wonder what the top engine move is here

Read somewhere they target places that are easy/defenseless/won’t give resistance. They target schools, churches, shopping centers, all places with little to no ability to fight back against someone with a gun. Life/society has been cruel to them so they want to return that cruelty to society.

But as someone else said it’s not always rational stuff going thru these people’s minds.

I’m a “blacksmith” using advanced machinery to aid in the process.

Yay! They stopped the orphan crushing machine for another day!!
