Reply to comment by [deleted] in With age, every sport becomes an extreme sport by kattmaskinen
Correlation ≠ causation. The types of people dedicated to esports just so happen to be the types of people who like to keep fit.
Edit: original comment above was something along the lines of "Actually, the top 10% of Esports players are also the most physically fit".

Reply to comment by EasyBOven in Stories with humanized animals are cute. Stories with animalized humans are terrifying. by NoNo_Cilantro
Your second paragraph made me laugh. “Based on anything real” dude what part of subjective do you not understand? We have free will. Thankfully, society can mostly agree that killing, raping and a bunch of other stuff is extremely bad. But a whole of us think people like you who take it this far are stupid. We can justify killing and eating an animal. We can’t justify killing a human. You can’t justify killing and eating an animal. I CAN.

It's also not really a monopoly to have your own unique game.

for school reason, all my socks are knee-hight and black. I think that they have never been matched correctly

I’m 48. Last Saturday I laughed at something on TV and trapped a nerve in my neck.

I'm not sure if that is actually true. Have you ever noticed that sometimes a game is called like Monopoly Cats, versus Cat-opoly?
I'm pretty sure Hasbro only owns the rights on the Monopoly name, and other companies can make their own unlicensed game if they change the names and fonts just enough.

Not a problem but it’s similar to that guy saying Amen and Awomen

The word ‘man’ can be used for all humans, which is why we have words like mankind and not womankind

Looking up the origins of that term is a quick, slightly intriguing read. In past tense you can say somebody pissed-off (went away) and it have nothing to do with your own emotion.
But the act of telling someone to piss off, is indeed typically connected to being angry with said person. Oh, English.

Sounds like you need a new card.
I can pay in advance for purchases if I want.

1% of humans currently is 80 million so there's a chance everyone you know is either of those.
