This is usually said by people who cry that they're offended by people calling them out for being assholes though.

I already knew the ending to Guardians 2 and it still emotionally murdered me.

Dudes, talk to your friends. And if your friends need to talk, don't be buttholes about it. Besides not accessing therapy, it's been said that men don't take advantage of their friendships to the same emotional level women do, and don't get as much help from their social network as a result. So if we could just get rid of this weird "only women talk about their feelings" thing, that would be very helpful for men who need support.

Just out of curiosity, does anybody know why the gregorian calendar starts the year when it does? Like, why January 1st is when it is, instead of on an equinox or solstice or other trackable celestial event?

If nobody cared, they wouldn't keep ending up arrested. But they do, and their faces are plastered across the news pretty regularly. And "nobody's talking about it...?" Does Ashley not read the news? Has she never heard of Corey Feldman? Terry Crews? Anthony Rapp? Lots of people talk about it. Lots of people have BEEN talking about it even before now. The problem is, when these boys go to the police or their friends, justice fails them because the (majority male) justice system STILL will not change and write the laws to include male victims. Because for some reason, the (majority male) justice system does not want to hold women to the same standard as men, because...because I don't know why, to be honest. I have no idea. I mean, holy shit, that one musician guy said a teen boy should have known better than to be alone with Kevin Spacey. A grown man said that. Just, what?

The trick is to stick to one or two words and don't stop walking. "Hello" or "good morning" with a slight nod. Don't slow down. Don't wait for an answer, they'll likely just murmur a response as they pass. Try not to look them in the eye. For God's sake, don't look them in the eye.

Yeah, no. If you have a knack for tracking those people down, you should've gone into law enforcement and helped make sure they spent years of their own personal Hell behind bars. Now you've killed barely a handful and you're in jail, when you could've eventually worked to retirement age and taken hundreds off the streets.

Per the title: Yes, because "X" is the Greek letter "Chi", which is the first letter of the Greek "christos," because "Christ" isn't an English word. Jesus' whole name is Greek, Jesus Christ means "Joshua, the Anointed One." "X" is short for "Χριστός" but you can certainly write "Χριστόpher" and shorten it to Xopher if you really want to. It's the nature of language to shorten things as much as possible as long as it's understandable. You can shorten Christopher to "Xφ" (Chi-phi) if you really want to, lots of people write their signatures in some kind of shorthand.

Chivalry is a knight's code of conduct. It's not dead, it's alive and in display by actual knights (official or ceremonial) like Patrick Stewart, Paul McCartney, Ian McKellen, Sidney Poitier, ...98% of people why say "women are the reason chivalry is dead" have never been on a level to qualify as Chivalrous anyway.

Women weren't created. Women evolved. Women are homo sapiens, and the only thing they can do that a man homo sapien can't is pop out a baby, and any biological necessities that go along with it. Anything "unique" was constructed along with civilization, since before that most homo sapiens pretty much did the same jobs. And don't give me the "hunter/gatherer" paradigm either, because those roles came from developing family bands and the first stages of an organized culture. As basic animals, strip away the technology and the created economies and drop them back in the plains, human beings are basically all the same and nobody is special or unique.

Grades don't matter though. Somebody who nearly flunks out of college can still end up on the corporate ladder thanks to their dad's friends while a 3.5 graduate can still end up working the front desk of the building while struggling to make contacts. Besides, I've worked a few min wage retail jobs next to very smart people with degrees in finance and biology. Customer service is a very stressful job sometimes, but it's not demeaning, beneath a person, or an intrinsically BAD job. A huge percentage of people have worked in fast food at some point in their lives, and not as teenagers.

Handmade gifts are much cooler though, it gives you a chance to use what you know about a person to put together something they'll really like. If I want something from the store I can buy it at any point in the year, but I love getting gifts made just for me! I hope everyone loves what OP gives them.

Look, if you're not headed somewhere with a dress code then dress however you want, men and women, period. Feel free to look, but keep your hands and your comments to yourself, period. And always remember this key point: YOU ARE NOT SPECIAL AND NOBODY GIVES A SHIT WHAT YOU THINK ABOUT HOW THEY'RE DRESSED. You think they're hot? Keep it to yourself, you say that shit crudely to anyone who didn't ask and you ARE a creepy loser, no matter what you think. You think they don't look decent or respect themselves? Show me on this nonexistent diagram where anybody asked for your meaningless opinion, peasant. Wear a short skirt. Let your boxers hang out. And if anybody who has no bearing on your life does comment, tell them to go sit in a corner and pray to God about it, because he's the only one who loves them enough to care what they think. And anyone who brings "here's how they were dressed" up to justify any wrong committed against another human being probably also drowns kittens.
