100% yes to everything you said, and also snow! Beautiful, wonderful snow!

If you truly hate kids, this is what you have to do. Introduce dangers with plausible deniability.

My knuckles still hurt from the memories of slamming those box scooters into each other before they started putting handles on them.

I refuse to look mine up because I am just not ready to be that angry today.

Winter is the best season.

You snowbirds don't know what you're missing.

Imo I think observing a crime like that but not reporting it (so more crimes can be amassed by that person) should be considered legal endorsement of the activity. You were aware of the infraction and chose not to report it or otherwise act on. That you were hoping to "bank" more crime from the criminal seems irrelevant to me - you chose not to pursue legal action even after clearly being aware of the infraction, which tells me you chose inaction.

But of course bringing our laws in line with morality and reason would require an enormous overhaul of the system, so instead we have this bullshit.

Not in the slightest. I'll happily talk dicks with you all day; I'm extremely sexually liberal.

But talking about dicks isn't the same as listening to a bunch of chud weirdos whining and crying about the world's least consequential issue that's they're only mad about because deep down they ignorantly think their tiny dicks would be bigger if they hadn't had their foreskins stolen.

Again, it's just a weird fucking thing to focus on. Bring it up when the topic comes up, of course, but to fucking insert it in conversations as if it's relevant, as was done in this post, will always be weird.

But hey, if you wanna talk about dicks for fun, I'm game. Mine curves slightly to the left, how about you?

I think we'd have to take a poll from the general population and compare it with a poll from an anti-circumcision group and compare it to be sure.

My guy, please be for fucking real right now. There is a difference between an unfounded claim and an outlandish one. If I said "all of the smartest people on earth believe Poland borders Peru," we wouldn't need a study or poll to confirm I was full of shit, we could just reasonably deduce it. Likewise we don't need a survey to tell us that any man who genuinely tried to bring up circumcision as tantamount in the abortion conversation would be rightly laughed out of serious consideration.

Again, I acknowledge you aren't wrong and I will acknowledge both abortion and circumcision exist under the same very broad umbrella of bodily autonomy, but frankly the scale and scope of the two are so wildly and enormously different as to instantly render any attempts at comparison moot.

And honestly, I really think that you know this too. I truly believe that if you can divorce yourself from your personal investment in this topic, you will also see what an absurd comparison that is.

Perhaps, and I'll admit this is overthinking a silly comic, but it seems to me that the coffee is a given assumption and it is only the addition of poison which is variable, so I think any implications of the coffee are entirely incidental

To the first point, I'd argue that men centering themselves in the discussion which largely centers around attempts to remove bodily autonomy from women only hurts, not helps the cause.

To the second point, it has come up a few times, but yes, the reason I said "leave this on reddit" was preemptive, before the problem migrates here from reddit where the topic is rampant is insanely zealous most often.

It's a dick topic of extremely minimal consequence in the grand scheme that just makes spaces like this looks like a bunch of dick-obsessed weirdos complaining because their dicks are too small.

Like I said, you're not wrong on the topic, it's just being so focused on the topic in the first place is fucking weird.

 

This was the first song by Bartees Strange I ever heard, and I was immediately hooked. One of the most interesting artists to watch out today, imo.

 

This song not being on Spotify is nothing short of criminal.

 

An absolutely criminally underrated gem
