History is written by the winners so whatever you do make it effective. You kill a bunch of people and lose you will be vilified.

I got to see Todd Barry on a whim one night and I was crying laughing in my seat, his crowd work is fantastic and he was absolutely skewering the local yuppies of my town.

Sunak should start publicly smoking all the time, then it will be the lamest thing and teen smoking will crater.

A disgusting ignorant statement, you have no idea what you are talking about.

Remember people don’t want a lecture when having a conversation, you get 3-10 seconds to make your point then it’s someone else’s turn to talk.

The game is almost 20 years old. My great grandchildren are going to be seeing ads for skyrim and RE4 rereleases into the 22nd century

Well first its not “social status” your describing but authority. Thats the word your looking for. I feel like authority is pretty cut and dry, those people have the ability to punish you if you don’t comply.

I would pay money to watch Trump attempt to run.

The government should have a say in how you cum. Get off the wrong way with the wrong people ; thats a paddling

I always had a suspicion but when I became an adult it was so much worse than I thought

Same, Its not that i don’t like porn but i got tired of blocking every instance of furry porn; like how many do you need?

Took a lesson from Sparta, make all your soldiers gay lovers and they will fight like hell.

I feel like zinc based deodorants activate my sweat glands

Efficiency, its not a closed ecosystem. The world is not static like an econ 101 textbook question. There is so many factors like credits, seasonal pushes during peak supply, producers offers for floor space. A lot of factors go into pricing a product, the amount sampling is not really one of them, thats just to push sales and is done at a completely different level of management.

So lets make it simpler. Coke spends more on marketing than it does production. Does this make coke more expensive for the average joe? No it makes it cheaper. Why? Because they can sell more coke, and selling larger quantities of things can mean better pricing by either production scale or better deals on ingredients. Back to Costco, samples are a rounding error level of cost for massive gains in sales.

You don’t know what the true truth is, no one does; you only have your own. You need the truth of others to focus your views closer to the real truth. Say you already know what the truth is closes you off to the possibility of growth regardless of what you say, and makes it pointless to have a debate.

Is it valid criticism? Do you focus more on winning the argument than finding the truth?

A system where citizens could choose to be active or passive participants with no barriers. Passive citizens could submit their desires through annual surveys but otherwise live a live free of politics. Candidates for representatives would be chosen lottery style from the pool of active citizens weighted by the surveys, than voted on by the active population.

Its was short sighted, we could have been cutting edge leaders in the energy of the future, but we let oil refiners convince us that it was in our best interest to let China and others take that mantle. Now we lag behind. We could have used renewable technology and sanctions against hydrocarbon energy to shape the emerging markets of the world but noooooo let all that soft power slip away so oil barons can get more money. Oil was extremely expensive for all of us we just haven’t seen the true bill yet.
