This may or may not be inspired by the nebula original abolish everything, a show I have not watched.
Digital billboards. That degree of rapid pace advertising is toxic, also those fuckers are bright AF.
I would extent this to billboards in general. Its annoying and nonsensical to advertise private products in public spaces
I would extend this as well to solicitors.
People saying “blog” when they mean post. You did not write a new blog on your blog, you wrote a new post on your blog.
You do not drive your car on the car. You drive your car on the road.
Do people still have blogs?
Totally. Whole businesses have sprung up for running and monetizing them. Check into Ghost, WordPress and WooCommerce, Memberful. Lots of other options.
Blimey I thought it was entirely social media.
Regional locks.
Why the fuck can’t I watch first 2 seasons and last 2 seasons of an anime on crunychroll sony? Why the fuck can’t I register your accounts to my country sony? Why the fuck can’t I buy your games on steam in my country sony? Why the fuck can’t I listen to your music on my streaming subscription, sony?
There is no reason for this shit to exist.
Mosquitoes.
This is one I can get behind.
At least the handful of pest species yes.
As I understand it, there are no mosquito-obligate predators, and other insects will likely satisfy the food chain
(Feel free to prove wrong)
No more internet gaming, all multiplayer gaming must be local, so that you can actually get your dumb ass up from the chair and punch (or be punched) by others, like our ancestors intended.
Anybody else owning cats. Then I can have all the cats. 🐱 🐈
Is it by magical means? Then name calling, mostly to watch Trump deal with it.
The 9/10 extension on gasoline pricing.
When this fuel was 13¢ per gallon, sure some folks might want to compete with finer-grained pricing.
It’s time to drop that pretense
The ability for human beings to advance scientific knowledge further than it currently exists.
Something needs to protect the rest of the galaxy from us.
Ah, the Amish Philosophy.
Pick a time period and stick to it like it’s a moral virtue
LOL, the Amish Philosophy.
Nothing so crude. I simply think it’s better for the universe if we don’t propagate it, because we’re not a good enough example for other species to follow yet. It’s not about respecting “God’s” law so much as acknowledging humanity’s limitations. We’re a pathetic species, not ready for rulership over multiple planets, let alone multiple solar systems. My comment simply suggests I don’t have confidence we ever will be. This has nothing to do with the Amish belief that we’re better in a simplistic state; just that the universe is better without us in whatever state.
You include earth in that?
I guess I’m wondering if you’d agree things would be better if humans didn’t exist.
Largely, yeah. I think it would have been fine if we’d stayed in the Iron Age. Things started getting fucked up with the Industrial Revolution.
Did you know that that painting was the reserve of the rich before the industrial revolution and the invention of synthetic pigments?
Now we let toddlers play with paints at preschool.
The need to pee at night.
Unless it was part of it, multiple levels of packaging.
Open up a bag of chips. It’s bag, then chips. Perfect world.
Open up a box of cookies from hell. Open up the box. Open up the freshness seal bag. Pull out the individually wrapped cookies, and open those too.
Straight to jail. No question.
The now ultra-common usage of “whenever”, when they actually mean “when”.
I can’t fucking stand it. But it’s everywhere now. I have no idea how it got so common but I’m surrounded by people who use it incorrectly.
I wonder if I’m using it incorrectly now.
We can go to the cinema whenever you like.
That is how I would use it. And I would use when like, when did you go to the cinema?
You’ve used it correctly! An incorrect usage would be:
“Whenever I go to the cinema, I get popcorn.”
Huh…
I would use that too, so I decided to search it up and this is what I found.
When is used for a specific time or single occurrences.
Whenever is used for repeated events or entries with uncertain dates or times.
So your example seems like it should be whenever, as it’s not talking about a specific time but more every time they go.
You’re correct that it’s not grammatically wrong, but a subtle semantic mis-match. Let’s bring in the difference between “every time” and “whenever”. While “when” and “every time” are interchangeable, “whenever” and “every time” are not. “Every time” is exact and without fail, while “whenever” implies unpredictability or indifference to the exact location.
“When (strongly implied every time) I go to the theater (exact location), I get popcorn.”
“Every time (explicitly) I go to the theater (exact location), I get popcorn.”
“Whenever (unpredictable, indifferent) I go to the theater (exact location -mismatch with unpredictability) I get popcorn”
Does that make sense?
That explanation makes logical sense, but honestly I suck at spelling and grammar. I also feel like a lot of it is location and setting dependant and people interpret things in different ways.
Pineapple. Not just on pizza (although that is an abomination), but all pineapple in food or drinks. It’s weird and slimy and its taste taints everything it touches. Plus fresh pineapple is trying to digest you while you eat it. Just a horrible fruit all around.
I will not be swayed by counter arguments.
This is me with mango. Disgusting ass food that’s related to poison ivy. No thanks!
You, sir or madam, are an abomination and should be abolished.
Pineapple is only slimy when inappropriately treated. For pizza you need to cut into small chunks, drain over a sink for a minute, and then quick fry in a pan to give a little caramelization. THEN put on pizza and bake. It is magic, paired with Canadian bacon, salty, sweet. Yum
Best breakfast burrito: the Hawaiian. Ham, potatoes, pineapple, eggs, sour cream. In fact, you have inspired me, with your hateful statements this morning, and I’ll be putting and order in shortly.

Damn, that sounds good.
It is amazing. They put mango salsa on it.
If you ever come to Anchorage, Alaska. Burrito factory. It’s in a gas station, but they have a proper kitchen, and cook to order. Super weird, I know, but i take all my friends there when they come for a visit, and they always ask to go again, the next time they come up.
Burrito Factory does make some excellent burritos, but I’d actually recommend Burrito Heaven over them. Unless you specifically want a breakfast burrito. It is hard to beat Burrito Factory’s breakfast burritos.
Eh. I don’t love burrito heaven. But I also eat breakfast burritos almost exclusively, so maybe that is it.
Best breakfast burrito: the Hawaiian.
You are obviously disturbed and need professional help, that you would defile the sanctity of a breakfast burrito with that devil fruit.
…it was delicious. I thought I abolished you… No more nonsense, thank you.
Motion-sensing faucets in public bathrooms. I feel like there is somebody behind the mirror trolling me every time.
I don’t understand why they don’t just have a foot pedal to activate those things. You could make an argument for handicapped people, but you could just have one sink use conventional knobs.
Probably because it’s cheaper to have it all be in one unit that’s easier to install. User experience has nothing to do with it.
NJ would like a word with you.
