  • Because people want the status symbol of having a dog without actually liking dogs, so they buy “convenient” dogs based on traits like how little they shed. Then the second they aren’t puppies anymore they dump them with a trainer to “train” all the dog out of them and/or dump them at a doggy daycare to torture the minimum wage employees who actually like dogs, all so the owners can take photos for their social media.

    Tl;dr: I love all dogs. But poodle mixes are exclusively owned by terrible people, and as a result, act terribly.


  • FUCKING Papa John’s. Cheap bastards don’t want to have employees so all their deliveries go through DoorDash, and those drivers always steal part of my order. PJs blames DD, DD blames PJs, and no matter what I’m the one left screwed.

    But more to your point, Dominoes > Pizza Hut ever since PH stopped dipping their crusts in grease. If I wanted to eat healthy I’d go be a rabbit or something.














  • It is all arbitrary though. There are some weak arguments about mental development but other than the generally accepted rule that human brains stop developing at around 25 years old, there isn’t any hard science between 16, 18, 21, or whatever. Individuals hit developmental milestones at different ages, whether they are physical or mental. Each age-restricted activity requires different types of development. A high schooler may be able to make an informed decision on who or what to vote for, but will be subject to peer pressure to drink alcohol to a dangerous level. You can now sign up to potentially get killed in an instant at 18, but you can’t intentionally give yourself cancer slowly. Kids have better reflexes than seniors, but are also more reckless (imo both ends of the age spectrum should require more frequent driver’s testing and restrictions).

    So since it’s all arbitrary, either we make everything one age, and 18 is a common median of the age-restrictions, or we ditch the restrictions entirely and rely on more extensive and expensive regulations based on individual development.
