I fucking despise people who hate on other countries just because they are those countries. Like Russia, Germany, Japan, or more obviously the U.S.A. People who can't get a clue about how EVERY SINGLE COUNTRY EVER has dirty laundry or it's share of bad people make me more angry than most anything else in the world. It's the sheer ignorance of the fact that every nation has had it's bad points. Rome had it's fair share of monsters, The Middle East had it's fair share of monsters, Germany had world war two, Japan has had it's unethical experiments on the chinese and americans, the chinese were quite brutal in their own ways, Britain had it's rampant imperialism, France had Imperialism as well though not as bad as Britain, and so on and so on I won't even bother to list all of America's flaws because well yeah their dirty laundry is apparent almost everywhere.

If you want to hate on something hate on a specific person or group inside of the nation NOT the nation itself because the nation itself is a blanket on many innocent individuals whom have done nothing wrong and don't deserve to be threatened with death wishes because you don't like what their government has stood for in the present or past. It's all a load of garbage.

Pre-founding of New Zealand itself the Maori warriors fed and cannibalized on humans. Not anywhere near as bad as other nations just like Canada but it's still something.

That's the Maori though, not the nation of NZ.

Canada has a bad track record with their natives. You can catch pretty much any colony-based nation in that same trap, but New Zealand was comparatively mild. There were wars fought between the Maori and the NZers over land, but when those wars were over, the Maori were treated like people and not some nuisance that had to be disposed of.

im so hungry af rn like im not even lying

i think im going to pass out but at least im going to sleep????


I've seen this kind of text on my Instagram, Snapchat, YouTube and when I browse Tumblr as a guest or just around the internet and I've wondered so many times if this is the new way to write now.

It's my biggest pet peeve and wonder if it's anyone's too.

But then I get frustrated and say, maybe I should give in too since I get tired of typing so formally.

I'm kinda ticked off about the fact that people can't just shut the fuck up about feminism and Men's Rights and all that shit and just say "Hey, let's stop screaming at each other and actually try to make thing better for us all."

That'd be great.

I mean, gender identity, sexual orientation, all that shit causes so much grief. Can we just stop giving fucks? If everyone could just stop giving fucks all at once, the world would be a better place.


Unfortunately, we exist in a world where people are idiots and will literally find anything they can about another person to attack, just for the hell of it.

I get ticked off when women join dating websites and are like 'I'm just looking for friendship'

Like couldn't you find a better place to find friends?

yeah I hate it when people look for friends it's like if you're not here to possibly have sex with me then what's the point of you lol

Seriously though, if it's right there in their profile then what's the problem? If it's not and they tell you this after you message them then they're probably trying to reject you nicely.

Well, the thing is, the entire point of those sites is basically to hook you up with someone so you can have sex (Something I honestly find repulsive, but I'm also asexual so hey I guess I can't really talk about that). The interface for a lot of these is you looking through a bunch of pictures and choosing the ones that make you horny. I'd assume that when you choose someone specifically because they're hot and that makes the reptilian bit of your brain happy, then they say "Actually I just want a friend", it kind of destroys the entire point of the site. Because people don't choose platonic friends based on how hot they are unless they're really pathetic people.

Yeh, that entire line of thought is definitely gross. There are ways to make friends. Join a club. Go to a meetup. Use social media. Build a robot. Whatever.

With a dating site, you have a situation where people are making themselves vulnerable (relative to the source) so they can find romantic relationships. Are you going to step in on that process and say "Tee hee, I was only looking for cheap validation a friend."? That's just awful behavior.

I guess I can see that, with apologies to @Dynamo Frokane for being snarky about it. I really wouldn't know since I'm not in the dating\dating site scene, being aro ace myself.

Do they have sites for specifically finding friends? If so then yeah, people should totally go there.

I will say though that my second point still stands: it might just be an attempt at a polite rejection.

I'd be really jealous right now if I didn't know damn well that being ace/aro comes with it's own set of problems.

Also, yeah, there actually is a site dedicated entirely to platonic relationships, including explicitly "Just friends" ones. Though it's also explicitly for asexual people, and nobody knows about it.

@Keyguyperson Actually, most of the problems I have with my orientation come from the community itself, but that's a whole other Can o' WormsTM. I might complain about that sometime.

I feel you - and personally there's a huge difference between typing casually (yo bud, sorry busy today) and liek tis wut i dun evn gt y sho lazy cnt txt prply oi.

If you're too lazy to type properly, then I'm too lazy to waste my time cracking my poor brain to read your crappy typo. Duh.

And if seeing that in social media messages isn't bad enough, there are even people are writing stories (fan fictions and also original works) exactly like that.

Not just English - even other languages like Chinese and Japanese too. I can't keep up with all these modern language trends - and I don't get the hype behind them either.

I know a fair few schools are failing students for txt-tlk use in exams, assignments and essays. Sadly though, the trend started with people trying to fit a message into a limited character space on the old Nokia phones in order to save money on pre paid plans, and it's just evolved to what it has become now.

Funny how technology seems to make more people stupid to so many things...

Now that we don't really have character limit for messaging services like WhatsApp etc., it's no longer about saving money.

People are just plain lazy and expect instant response.

I mean, using one or two short forms here and there is fine, but at least make an effort to let the other party to be able to easily and quickly understand you.
