    It's the same with Canadian television. Pre-2000 its full of interesting, educational programming, post-2000 its a wasteland (not including Pre-Netflix Trailer Park Boys).

    How? I asked Copilot if it could code my game ideas (which would sell millions, obviously) and it said it could, but it was lying.

    All you need to do is have 5k worth of stuff you can sell every month?

    Maybe you just hate to lose, which drives you to relentlessly pursue "success?"

    The issue ive heard with non-Latin mass is that it has lessened the feeling of global community among Catholics as they now do not all speak the same language (Latin).

    Most of the ick factors are because of our empathy, which triggers upon seeing another human being in "icky" states of being and makes us imagine what it would feel like to be in s…

    But you don't know that. Maybe op has done multiple cross country trips across America. Maybe they've only been to NYC and Disneyworld. You could have asked them, but you didn't!

    Right, so you are assuming in bad faith, instead of just asking their point and refuting it!

    Three elections (at least) where both candidates are historically bad.

    Your comment is very reddit-esque. "do you think the US is a monoculture?" implying that the commenter does think that, and that that thought is ignorant and absurd. Instead of ask…

    As a Canadian, it's not even that. Im not holding someone responsible for what their political opposites do. It's just not safe or smart to be close to America right now. And it ma…

    Why don't you just ask what they are referring to instead of bringing out the snarky gotcha comments...

    They should make you sad. The leader of your country said we suck and that we would be better off being a part of the USA (and that he would MAKE us be a part of the USA)! It doesn…

    Most people rise or sink to the level that they're held to. If everyone is getting lazier or worse at thinking slowly and deliberately, most of the rest will see that as the standa…

    ya your snark is underwhelming. the comment was about increasing rates of baldness in young men, not whatever point you are trying to make.

    Sure they have. And if Reddit charged for use then they would see Canadians leaving en-masse.

    Trump isn't really giving anyone the choice with talking about annexing its allies. You seem to be blaming the victim here.

    Looking at labels is hardly a test of your sanity. In Canada right now a majority of the population is regularly checking and avoiding anything made in the USA.

    They aren't suboptimal where I am. US products are cheaper, but they are routinely less healthy, more addictive, and poorer quality than the alternatives. Its fine if you can't aff…
