Yeah, they’re fantastic for, uh, “vases”

Pretty sure they only hate Jewish immigrants. There seems to be a lot of crossover between American anti-semites and people who want Israel to carpet bomb Gaza

You’re just saying tea tea

‘You fucking donkey’ is a personal favorite

I’d everyone else died of old age and you are the last, would you still want to leave the earth better than you found it?

Yes. Humans are not the only thing existing on this planet, and I find it rather arrogant to treat it this way. If I’m alone staring down the heat death of our universe? Well it doesn’t quite matter anymore.

Would you take comfort in or be indifferent to the happiness you brought

Absolutely. This is probably more nurture vs nature though. I’m very much an atheist but was raised in a strong Christian household. I’ve shunned the religious aspect, but “Love your neighbor as yourself” is pretty much ingrained in my DNA at this point. I find happiness in bringing it to others.

As for ideas of good and better, of course they are my own opinions and based on experiences of others. There is no objective “good” and “better”, because there is no objectively true meaning to life. For me personally, doing what makes me happy would include eating good food, drinking good whiskey and listening to punk rock. Those are not objectively good, but they are good to me. I will share them with likeminded people, and I will find other ways to better my neighbors’ lives.

This is quite the existential question! Of course, there’s really no “right” or “wrong” answer, and there are so many different ideas on what the meaning of life is.

My opinion? There isn’t one. The fact we exist at all is a wildly random event, and the fact we are conscious of it even more so. Life is meaningless, so we create our own meaning. For me, the meaning of life is to strive for happiness (not BE happy, we can’t be happy 100% of the time), bring happiness to those around me, and leave the world better than I came into it. I don’t give a shit about legacy, since I won’t be around to enjoy it. The only legacy I care about is that I made life better for the people I love.

Treat others with kindness, be mindful of the world you live in, and do more of what makes you happy.

I mean, they kind of are, right? We just pay all of our tolls up front in the form of vehicle registration

Interesting. I do think it’s bullshit that you can’t claim a ticket anonymously in a lot of states. I get having to provide info for tax purposes, but you shouldn’t be required to publicly announce your personal info to claim it

Doesn’t this only work if the LLC is created before the purchase of the ticket? In addition, LLC docs are public record, you can look up the operators registered under an LLC

This thread is for UNHELPFUL advice. This right here is the best advice anyone has ever offered
