Car Insurance Sexism. by froggy666in MensRights

[–]craigske 0 points1 point ago

Sure, the NHS is a burden to everyone. It's also accessable to everyone.

The american system on the other hand is inaccessible to most and is also a burden to most. Check where your taxes are spend. You're being robbed blind and you're dumb enough to spout the propaganda that enables it...

Assuming you're american of course.

I guess that assessing risk based on behavior is sexism by definition. What I don't understand is why that is OK, but racial profiling is not...

Ever got a stick in the face? Doesn't have to be a tomahawk to hurt. You really can't tell...

Why does the NHL lack player personality? by thatsongin hockey

Oh god. You're right. Think we can disown him?

I'd say it's because most of them are Canadian, and we aren't braggarts. The tone is professional, and down to business. We do our work on the ice.

Seriously, who wants to be like an NFL receiver. They are just embarrassing. American sports heroes make you guys look like assclowns.

Crazy. It's hard to imagine. It's like all our tax dollars go to another province or something...

ASA levels are good. That place is an ASA shop, so you should be ok. Do the basic keelboat on a rental. Cheap, and easy. Then decide if you're ready to go big.

Realistically, what would happen if the Kings game goes into triple over time? by americanslang59in hockey

So good. I didn't see that coming at all...

How long do you think it will be until someone comes out in the NHL? by kaleidoscope-eyesin hockey

[–]craigske 0 points1 point ago

This would be true, but the US is somewhat irrelevant. Hockey players are predominantly not american.

Agree totally. That's why I think we will see a gay player soon. One to two years. I think with Burke's stuff and the backlash against players using racial slurs, it's actually a lot better now...

The nhl would cream itself from all the free publicity.

Ps. What's a clipper?

Fair enough, but I think the rest of the populace can be fired after one bad evaluation, so I have little sympathy there. That's just real life in north america for everyone but government employees.

On the rest of the points, I agree with you. Except that I'm not sure the teacher's employment contracts is where that battle should be fought. Instead, I'd love to see the population demand the government fund education effectively. With performance requirements from all parties.

Can you please tell us what those rights were?

[–]craigske 1 point2 points ago

Yes, I think the boomers stole it from us.

So let's erode one province in order to make them all equal?

Why not fund education properly in the other provinces...

[–]craigske -2 points-1 points ago

I, for one support you and your cause.

The constant erosion of Canadian values to an amercian "business first and fuck everyone else" attitude is horrible. We should be educating our population, not fighting for what scraps we currently have.

Any texans aboot?

Yes, anyone can call 911/emergency services in the US. I'm guessing you're a brit. I lived in texas. You can likely phone the local police number and report her as a danger to herself. If you honestly believe that she will hurt herself, you must do this.

Do you have address and identity information? (don't post it or give it to anyone online) The police will want that.

I've been down the suicide path twice already, and made it back both times. This is my story. I hope it helps. by bceedubin SuicideWatch

You fucking rule. I couldn't agree more, everyone matters.

Thanks for being an inspiration. I guarantee you made a difference.

TL:DR OP is badass. Love her.

Faded Flairs, which team have you adopted for the rest of the playoffs, and why? by too_much_lavain hockey

Fuck the Kings for taking out Vancouver. Fuck the Rangers for taking out Ottawa.

I like Ovechkin so Washington it is.

Does anyone else feel like they're not 'built' for life? by im_ladin SuicideWatch

[–]craigske 1 point2 points ago

Everyone feels "outside" society from time to time. Even the alpha male risk takers. It's totally normal. Being risk adverse isn't something to fixate on. I'm sure there are amazing things about you that other people look at and wish they could be more like. Risk takers usually blow all their cash and make stupid choices that do cost them. They're probably saying "fuck I wish i was as smart as im_lad, that guy has his shit together".

Seriously, from an evolutionary point of view, we need a good spectrum of behavior to survive. You'd be the only one left in certain circumstances, think about it. Somebody to slow things down and help other people make better choices is invaluable in teams and societies. In business we call them accountants.

You bring value. You just don't see it. That's normal.
