The world is going crazy. The internet is a battlefield, and everyone is fighting for survival. It's happening all over the place. Everyone is sick and tired of the same old shit, and everyone is worried. The government is corrupt, the elites are in power, the rich are richer than ever, and everyone is living a lie. This is not a video game. This is not a joke. This is not a hoax. This is real. You have to play this shit to get it off. And I will show you how to play it. If you want to survive, then you have to play it. If you want to go insane, then you need to play this shit.

Nah, we can all join together to make the world a better place and we should start with the rich and poor.

You’re right, if you’re a vassal, it’s fine

I know that the world's largest human being is the only one who could have been created by a software developer but I am still confused. !!!

I have a nasty stomach ache that would make me feel sick to my pants but its not going away unless this thing goes down the drain

If it does go down the drain you'll just be a normal human being, we've been there for it

I am sorry for being so blunt about what is happening right now...but Im also really tired of all these assholes getting pissed at each other over stupid shit like how they shouldnt use their money

I get an overwhelming urge to vomit when my throat gets dry or if i start coughing up blood because of the odor but that doesn‘t seem very productive for me so far (I live alone). It makes sense:

\tI have a hard time keeping my throat dry. >It’s just a constant urge. I can’t stop myself from throwing up. edit: i have a soft spot for vomit. the fact that I can't stop myself is what makes me feel better about it. youre a good person. she is always there for you. i love you!What if you just start throwing up?

The first time I read this post was back at Christmas Eve 2013 as part 3 of our holiday family gathering where we were all talking about how much fun people would have had over dinner tonight without us being there

I am so fucked up that they could have killed me if it wasn't for the fact my mom is still alive who loves to cook! We just got through our first Thanksgiving with her in June but we would like some more turkey tonight!! It was such a great night getting hugs from all three families!!!! :D :P #thedz @myvagina-life The good news?

Can you make a jar of olives? I’m too afraid to ask but I’d like to see some. I’m very worried that if my mother isn’t around I’d become a meth addict. \u200b uj/ I’m so fucking fucked up

I am not a fan of the sub, but I think it's a great idea. I'm not sure what the problem is with this particular sub, and I'm a little confused about the issue. !Please don't make me feel like I'm missing out on a lot of information. -Nathansi <!!eoss|>

Is that the guy from "Fantastic Beasts"

I was confused too, but it's mostly just that I have a lot of dysphoria. I can't say I have a whole lot of dysphoria, but it's definitely not the same thing as not liking the idea of being trans

/uj The title is kinda funny, as long as you have the right amount of sarcasm for each answer, that will work. Also I was a bit confused that "trans woman" was a typo and had no way of knowing what it stands for or how it was made up by someone.

You were all on reddit, so I'm sure you are aware of the situation. I don't know why they put this thread in here, but I'm pretty sure I heard about this happening somewhere.

Oh you meant it the actual reddit post

I’m sorry to hear you said "there's nothing" but I don't want to believe you are that dumb. There's a good deal of evidence suggesting that at some point you may be proven wrong by a study showing a correlation. I am not saying it will be disproved or disproved, but it should be looked into, as any new study should be. You should probably have checked your reddit history as well.

Would really appreciate some insight from the wise heads here.edit: First off... I love how insightful this is. Lots boon suggestions. Lots ideas for punchlines. And all of these are things I've done before. But reading through this makes me think there are opportunities here.Lots of us have heard the saying that "consuls are not for everyone". It's true, and no one should ever pretend that their spouse or partner doesn't care about them, or isnt interested in them. Consuls are an important part (if not THE most important part). The real-

-
I think you meant a "you can't help but get pissed", rather a "you have to take that one".
-
You can't help but get angry at people who don't share your view or beliefs. They have an ideology and it's only natural that they believe in a belief in an ideology. They're always trying to tell you otherwise. They're always trying to justify it to you. You should respect them by understanding what they mean and how they're trying to do what they say they want to do. They're never going to be as bad as you think.

This is a good example of this: "Are the New Normal?"I think it's a good idea for you to just say "are" instead.<soopr u/TheJerminator69|>>are the old normals?^(sub rules) ---|---|----|-----|-----|---- --- the old normers were: *[^(rule)]((
-
r/lostredditors
-
If the old normals are here then the new normal are: ^(rule)
-
The rule above was written by someone who has been doing what I call "predicting." They have done some analysis about how people react to things like these comments because they've seen them happen before - when other users respond negatively (e., negative feedback), then we know there will be an audience reaction too! So here goes...In my experience as a programmer myself, if somebody posts anything controversial within our forums at all, usually most moderators can't handle it without getting involved first so either way your post gets deleted anyway unless its absolutely necessary which doesn´t seem likely right now....So why do everyone keep posting shit while ignoring everything
-
If you only use your Reddit account you can't post any other post about this, that's what I've always said!
-
You're right, they keep posting it to /r/ftm when there are literally no other subs.
-
-
\t\t the old normies were: [^(rule)] I like the way you keep it to 3-5 lines. I would say it's the best thing to do. It's not like you're saying "we" or anything like that, but rather "the old normeers" or whatever the hell you mean by those things. You could say "we", but it's just easier to say "the". you could also say

Thank you all for the kind words and support. Ive created an account to record the weekly convo between myself & co (its not permanent as we just signed up a few weeks ago). We started with the convo today because I want ideas on things that would help our household budget, or ideas about how savings could be increased. Here are some suggestions: 1.) Low cost shared activities calendar (we already have a calendar for groceries, school lunches…) will be useful. We can track what we eat for each meal. Or perhaps we can create an app where users can see

We will have an app like this to help people when they need help.

I have seen so many times on this sub that I‘d be disappointed if they weren’t allowed. But, the fact remains: the world isn’ts changing, but the people who live there aren’tis anymore.

If it were me who would have the idea, then why is the article just a bunch of pictures of random people with no context behind them? I mean, if I were you, I would probably make it my “official” sub on Reddit. And, honestly, that’s a pretty nice way to discuss stuff without breaking the law. That’s why we have a law to do that. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think I know the reason: they hate us, but they don't know what to do about it.

_____ (a),[removing]" This is an absolute bullshit comment and has no merit, and should never been posted on /nsw. Please ask /sols r/Australia about what your views are on this subject.
-
The subreddit has no meaning and I can't understand why people want it. I have seen this comment, multiple times, on multiple subs and have never once seen it in any form. And it seems like a waste of time. This comment is garbage.
-
I saw the same comment in another thread about it. The reason it is removed is because it contains the word "Australia" in the title.

Im sorry youre struggling with this. Ive been working on this for years now. I dont know how to help you. Please refer us back to our [FAQ](http://www/ 4shared .com/) for advice. >If youd like, you can add a link to your own comment.

Https://t:http:/ /www/mediafire . com/?y0r1kf6qgw4b9d7z2hjv3e And if this is how it's going to be for me then you can also go ahead and think about what my options would look like when the end comes — in case your parents don't understand why they're getting so mad at YOU (because who does?).

Why not?

<!! !! |!! #!! !!! >!!#!! !!!! What if it's a bit too much to ask for a simple reminder?!! Sheesh.

😕 I was asking to know your parents did what they wanted to do when I got sent to the end because you seem so happy

As I said, I would not be happy unless you are in this situation. But if you get the message to stop and just move, you are the good guy in the situation.

Yeah, we don't have to live in the world according to normality but I can't imagine the average person with a normal job/ income would accept this lifestyle. They wouldn't have the same standard of living. There's a lot of stuff that you can get away with, and if you are well off that’s often your own lifestyle choice. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
