all culture is appropriated. all trends start with one person who was originally being unique. telling people they cannot do a fashion or tradition because it belonged to someone else is like telling another person they cannot stop being a certain way because that's how their ancestors were, actually its the exact same thing its just the flip side of that coin.

i mean i don't expect people to how *how* to do it, but it seems like something you learn about *needing* to be done just by being exposed to the world, but then i'm someone who was judging a man really hard when i saw he called a tow truck to change his tire, as in switch it with the full sized spare he had in his trunk.

its a little more complicated than that if you have certain kinds of tires you have to rotate differently, but most sites have charts and your owners manual will tell you which manner you are supposed to rotate

i can think of a few scenarios where these are appropriate, but mostly scenarios where people you cannot avoid will not leave you alone, like a creepy Walmart door greeter who is at least 20 years older than you who causes you to drive across town to a shittier, scarier Walmart to avoid him, because he traps you for like 10 minutes at the door and will suddenly show up in the middle of the store having "found" you shopping.

its not inaccurate, its misunderstood and misapplied. when all income is averaged together, women make less, but that is not typically the case anymore when you compare equal employees, its just that jobs that are higher paying in general have a higher % men, skewing the number. the problem is not equal pay, its equal representation within fields that have higher pay, which does not tend to be a problem with employers, but a problem with what we teach to kids about the jobs they should want based on gender. even with that, if you want to have a better idea where we are NOW with these numbers, you have to factor in age to know where we are REALLY at because higher paying jobs tend to be careers, so even if today all people just starting careers were an equal ratio men to women, the older folks from unequal generations are still present to skew numbers.

it can be said "three fourths" or "three quarters" so 3/4ths is correct for the first way of saying it

setting matters, and i THINK the implied setting for the meme is public area... if you with friends and fucking up, fuck yeah, laugh, and be laughed at, its fine. its when you don't have the establishment friendship in a more.. public arena... that laughing can be mean and discouraging.

with no money we would simply barter. it would remain much the same as it is now, you live in a really idealistic place in your head if you think removing money would eliminate greed, wars, slavery, and bad education. in fact i bet with no money things like slavery increase, as you can make more for yourself if you own a bunch of people to make it for you, which increases the number of people not getting an education, plus your quality of educators will decrease when you no longer pay them with money, but instead they have to cross their fingers you think the education they gave your child is good enough to give them a healthy cow and not just the one you were gunna cull anyways. and we've always fought wars over things and beliefs, money is more a secondary factor as a result of assigning monetary value to the things we want, and even without a dollar sign we'll still know the value.
