The purpose of a plush is more than something for just children. There's a reason ambulances keep one in a shelf. The notion that it's weird for an adult to have just a regular bear, even one they got themselves is silly and you'd be calling 1/3 of all adult business travelers creeps. but if you just randomly got up and bought a bear today, then yes that's weird

If you do what you love the money will come later. As you get to your professional career, your pay is determined more on what you'll make in a year over how much you work in a week. But that's an even worse meme.

Get a job you actually like doing, you'll probably get less hours and more pay. Don't fall for the Cubicle Meme. Well you're half right. The job is easy as piss, but I still hate the work to death mindset

32* because that's what the law states so.... >30=health insurance, so I consider that full time.

Do you live in the US? Full Time in the US can go as low as 32 hours. I've worked a wide range of weekly hours from three days with 36 hours to six days with 55 hours with a lot of variety in between and I fucking love capitalism. I will admit though, a Nat 40 is fucking awful. 30 a week with five six hour days is much more preferable to me. It sucked. Older people always says kids will like capitalism once they get their first real job. I don't buy it, especially when there are countries with only 35 hour work weeks that are considered full time. Fuck this country's obsession with working yourself to death.

Why is it weird for guys to have teddy bears? And why is it frowned upon? There is literally nothing wrong with it and it's actually more common than people might think. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/howaboutthat/7947502/Third-of-adults-still-take-teddy-bear-to-bed.htmlGranted the article is seven years old but I doubt the data has changed much at all over that time frame. And I don't give a shit about something like Masculinity, some things are more important than that. I have a Stitch plush, he stays on the bed and doesn't do anything else. He'll occasionally topple over onto the floor in the middle of the night but it's just another constant I'm used to having on the bed before going to sleep.

They didn't have to donate. Good job sucking money out of innocent families for your evil company

I really wish people would stop using populism in a sense that it's a bad thing. The concerns of the ordinary citizen are completely valid to have. It's why we let every citizen vote in the first place. they're just here to normalise the ideas of this populist tide.

VIII had the terrible Junction system though. That's quite the assumption. I think it was as well received as it was is because the playstation was insanely popular, it was in 3D, and it got away from the classic FF stuff. Maybe anime did play a part in it, but I doubt it got as big as that simply because of anime. FF8 came out only two years later and sold more, but people still don't hold it in the same light as 7.

Do you like the job? Very, I hated working Lost & Found at the Ticket Center, compared to there, working at the campground resort is a variable vacation. How'd you do that? Most guests don't like carrying coins with them, so I just ask every guest that pays with cash if they want to donate the coins they get from their change to the conservation fund, 99% of the time they will.

? They totally mass hire, there's so many bumbling idiots here that's impossible to imagine them not mass hiring. I had no connections and only had a HS diploma at the time, and I didn't even have my license at the time (a strict requirement to work there) and they still took me in, they even took me in after I made a morbid comment during the interview. "Why do you think safety is our most important aspect?" "You can't have fun if you're dead." Got the job literally 15 minutes later. Well how did you get in? Like did you have a connection? Any degrees or certificates? They don't just hire nobodies from my understanding.
I've tried applying before and I got rejected.

"For single-handedly increasing donations from guests to our wildlife conservation fund by 186%." I got a free t-shirt and two free movie tickets, I'm gonna go see Alien: Covenant in two weeks!

I'm not up at 6am and I'm usually working at 6pm, but I'll humor you on that I do watch the news. Terrorism is a major problem, but not to the point where people need to worry about it on their way to work, or school, or wherever. Like I said, it's good that Macron said he wants to crack down on terrorism, but his original comment can scare a lot of people and give off the wrong idea. Do you watch the six o'clock news at all?

VII is okay at best. It's only as popular as it is because it released right when anime exploded in the west. So is 7
Doesn't mean they're bad. Overrated =/= bad

How is terrorism an undeniable reality of our daily lives? I can't accept the belief that a bomb exploding in the street or a deranged religious radical running around shooting people is something all of us have to deal with on a daily basis. His statement just comes off as contradictory then. I'm glad he's planning to be tough on security and he plans to address it, but that only makes it more bizarre that it's something that's going to be more common place. If anything it should become rarer and rarer to see terrorism if we tighten security and take more steps to halt it. Anyways, I saw his victory speech and I'm also glad he mentioned how he accepts the Le Pen voters are angry with the world today and he wants to address them so they don't have to support a radical candidate to get the change they want. It seems he understands the people crying out against the problems in Europe are not without merit. That's a very loaded way of framing his comment. He said that the threat of terrorism is part of our daily lives in the near future, which is completely and undeniably true for all of us. He never said it's just something we're going to have to live with or that it's an unsolvable reality now. Given how he's shaping up to have a pretty harsh stance on security, framing it that way comes across as pretty misleading. Listening to the entire interview, it's pretty clear he's saying this as "we're experiencing a threat of terrorism in our lives now, and this is why we have to...". He's stating a painful reality for many Western countries not as a resignation to it being permanent, but as something he plans to address. I see little wrong with his comment.

I honestly don't know what they were expecting. Macron's victory was guaranteed long before there was any real hype over the election. The big battle was always gonna be on how he's going to interact with the U.K. and Trump. http://boards.4chan.org/pol/thread/124527226

There's no logic in telling people terrorism is something you're going to have to live with, quite literally the modern day version of "let them eat cake". Especially with police officers getting chased by a bunch of people acting like animals. I don't endorse Le Pen, but it's silly to think Macron gives a shit about the people. He's an aristocrat, and one that only won because the opposition is pants-on-the-head retarded. Your logic behind this statement being...?

Hopefully Macron keeps his mouth shut for the next five years or France and the EU will worry in the next election.

Okay, I'll admit, I'm being a little harsh. But he still isn't all that great IMO. He's okay every now and then but I personally find Colbert to be on a completely different plane in terms of being funny. That's really not a reason to dislike him.

I liked him better when he was a correspondent for Stewart. Jon leaves for one week and lets him run the show and he lets it get to his head. Now he's just "Le epic current year" man. How dare you insult John Oliver

« on: May 05, 2017, 04:56:19 PM »
He's better than that unfunny redcoat Oliver. Colbert should be fired for being terrible at his job.

« on: May 05, 2017, 04:44:06 PM »
Not to mention Colbert has made it clear that he'd be glad to eat the fine and say it again. I don't see how he'd get in trouble when his show airs beyond normal regulation show times. This shouldn't even be worthy of investigation.
