Me: *Makes a joke*
FS: STOP HAVING FUN!!!!! (You know, because apparently I'm not allowed to have fun on a website called FUNsubstance)
Seriously, who put the sand in your vaginas? If you didn't find it funny, move on and stop moaning.

Downvoting to prove your own point? That's very weak.

It's a well known fact that education in the US is slightly below average when compared to other modern countries. Saying that as I did in my older comments wasn't complaning or judging based on one situation, it was just stating facts.
Also, ironically, this "it was a foreigner" theory of yours doesn't work because according to the statistics, foreigners outperform naturally born Americans.

The +1 on my comments suggests otherwise.

"Muh country is importanter than yours" sounds like you got some complexes you gotta deal with, buddy.
As I said before (y'know, those 3 years ago), you don't have to know where all the countries are that but maybe you should know how to use google, it would be enough in this situation.

Humor is subjective, you don't have a monopoly on deciding what's funny and what isn't

Everyone on FS apparently

Oh sorry for repeating, I didn't click the "Earlier comments hidden. Show Comments" thingy so I didn't see your comment lol

There's a similar situation (though not nearly as dire) in my country, in that weed is illegal but most cops won't give a damn when they see you with a blunt, some will even ask if they can smoke with you. The government is still mostly 50+ old men, which means that legalization is far from happening, but the cops have already progressed. It's almost like progress is slowly coming up the chain of command, and once there's a new generation in charge, things will change. And of course it's not as simple as I'm describing it, but I'd have to write an essay if I wanted to describe it fully.

@diyrogue I agree that the situation is not as simple as the dichotomy I described (which was there mostly for purposes of clear demonstration), but I think that you can see that in many countries (including the US for example), the elites are just completely disconnected from the people. They live in their bubble, always talking with the same people, reaffirming their opinions and just overall existing in a big circlejerk. The law enforcement officials are somewhere inbetween, getting their orders from the elites but still in contact with the people. Before, their loyalty to the elites was bigger than their empathy with the community. But as you can see it's changing because they stopped arresting women who don't wear hijabs.

The laws did originally come from the community. But when the elites become disconnected from the people and the people move on from these outdated standards but the elites don't, this happens.
In fact, there was a sort of campaign in Iran where men wore hijabs as a parody/protest of the regime's morality police. So saying that Iran's community is the problem is quite incorrect. Young Iranians are rapidly moving forward, unfortunately Iran's government is still full of old conservatives.

You're necrobumping but I'm willing to continue the discussion.
He made the clock out of some wires he found in his parents' garage. Saying a teenage boy would make something like that just to appear like a terrorist is the crazy thing here, not believing he could make a clock. Also, I advise you cut it out with the ad hominems, you're just embarrassing yourself because it makes you seem like you can't lead a civil discussion without throwing personal insults all around.
You know what's funny, though? The boy got offered a scholarship in Qatar and moved there, because he didn't feel safe in the US. I repeat, he moved to a Middle Eastern country because he felt that in the US someone might randomly shoot him or his family. That's how fucked up the US is. And they dare lecture the rest of the world about terrorism.

and it's filled with people who are filled with shit

As I said, the point of a joke is to be funny. This wasn't.
Anyway I'm done wasting my time on this thread so I'll just click unfollow. Happy holidays.

Lol, another wave of downvotes, even on things that were +4 or so. Did you seriously use multiple devices to get multiple IPs to downvote from? Holy shit, you should really get help, this makes me cringe by proxy.
Reminds me of Black Mirror S3 Ep.1 "Nosedive". If the reality of that episode was real, this would be happening all the time, petty sad people ruining normal people's ratings. Good thing upvotes/downvotes aren't an actual measure of status like in that episode.
