I would guess that people currently posting, who have raised concerns in the past that he might be headed into various unhappy relationships, don't want Mac to be unhappy.

Mac, on the other hand, guilt-tripped me into buying the biker zombie game (I was gunna anyway on a good sale), because he bought (and didn't play) the Project Zomboid game I painted in a positive light, which to my recollection I never told him to buy.

Not too different to badgering someone into installing a game so you can play together, then not.

is it bullying to advise a 33 year old man that making someone a ‘girlfriend’ after 1 meeting is, erm, terminally ill advised?

any healthy relationship starts slowly and develops organically. you can’t commit to someone you just met. particularly if that someone sees it fit to chew you out and judge your entire character on, uhh, your second meeting together and within the first 10 hours spent together (to say nothing of the fact it was an occasion, your birthday, when normal social conventions would suggest it should be a treat and a relaxing time for you).

is this bullying? you are responsible for young people in your job. why do you need such rudimentary advice at how to adult?

I can't tell sometimes if it's meant to be tongue-in-cheek/troll or taken literally. I don't always want to assume the former. I've seen breakdowns happen back in college and once or twice at work because people assumed too much that friendly barb exchanges were, well, friendly.

Do know though that I wouldn't want to be stuck in a relationship as the side guy, as the doormat, or getting involved with work people who are my superiors or juniors.

i'm still partly convinced after all these years that macbeth is just bored/stoned and trolling. half of these things sound like tall-tales. he is a man of mystery, some chimera of shitposting. it's like analysing a big practical joke.

Horse racing is a proud tradition. It has just been ruined the last few years by junkie horses and now violent horses.

Horse racing people go to great lengths to boast of all the various pro-horse stuff that occurs in its orbit. Horse charities, advanced veterinary care, horse spas, the life they get after they're spent. Lots of positive publicity.

In its only defense it's far from the most abusive human thing that animals are involved in, but really scant comfort for the horses.

The second line of defense is "what else are we going to do with the horses?" From PETA, on race horses (yeah, yeah, "but peta blah blah," watch the video):

https://www.peta.org/media/news-release … uth-korea/

Before uzique perks up at the location (I already see him firing up his keyboard for two or three paragraphs of retort) some of the animal farms in the US are on a whole other level of brutality. Ever see videos of farm workers football-spiking piglets or drop-kicking chickens at a truck? The likewise hellish conditions in which some of those animals are kept? The ag-gag laws in response to exposé?

And to forestall dilbert's inevitable "ah-hah" about brutal Asian culture or whatever, have an inward look. Does Australia even have federal legislation for the protection of farm animals? Lab animals? You're a "man of science," dilbert, what oversight guarantees the quality of data received from various tortures?

i’m from cheltenham, which is a kentucky derby scale racing destination in the british horse-person calendar. i’m not about to die on a hill defending south korea’s record on horse welfare, of all places. you can watch expensive race horses die at the steeplechase races several times a year in the UK. it’s one of the gambling highlights of the year.

i’ve never gambled on anything in my life, much less something involving animals. seems like a loser pursuit.

There's a sizeable horse track not far from where I live. Also rodeos. Ah, American rodeos, where you can pay a vet to reassure the crowd that the horse with the flopping broken leg is just fine while the people take it away to be put down.

How do you feel about bull fighting? A proud Spanish tradition.

Filed next to rodeos and their fake-ass cowboys in the distasteful things cabinet. I don't care about their tradition excuse. Humans used to do plenty of stuff that we don't do anymore for one reason or another.

I saw some guy struggling to double park his pickup truck this morning by the hospital. I can only hope he was visiting a relative or something because otherwise why would you buy a pickup truck if you live in a dense city?

Cause you want to waste money driving 50 miles each way to/from work.

I'm at the point some pickups should require a CDL. They're literally wider than trucks you need a CDL for and these cunts need to learn to stay in lane.

At least they won't feel like fags for driving around in 4 door easy to park Azn cars. They will instead feel like masculine patriots for paying $100 to fill up their tanks on the way to the body builder gym to lift weights with just the boys.

The F150 I used to drive around was fine forever on like $40 of gas. Where are these people going that they need to top up from empty so often?
