One person saying “they copied us” does not make it objectively so.

There are plenty of songs in Muse’s discography that have no Radiohead equivalent (and vice-versa).

I just learned about https://neocities.org/, seems up your alley

You can blame whoever you want, but it’d be you pulling the trigger, and the whole world paying the price.

Your response to the killing of innocents is to kill more innocents, somewhere else?

You think Iraq, Afghanistan, Iran etc are populated entirely with “bad guys” and there aren’t any struggling families, honest workers, small businesses, schoolkids etc, not to mention tourists from other countries?

What is your “real sugar” control group? Henry Weinhard’s or Hansen’s or similar?

I’m a liberal who knows some leftists, so maybe I can reframe some of these so they make some sense.

Most leftists are not vegetarians. A leftist is more likely to suggest buying locally-sourced, humanely-raised meat sources, and balancing your diet such that meat is still included, but not necessarily the focus of every meal.

On boring cars: a car does not need to be huge or rev very loud to be exciting. On this point, economics and environmentalism actually agree; getting a car with good gas mileage is not only good for the environment, but cheaper over the car’s lifespan. You can make your car more exciting with a neat color paint job, decals, seat covers, custom rims etc.

On kids: I know leftists with kids. The idea isn’t to have 0 children, it’s to only have as many as you actually want. Families like to coerce couples into having kids. Don’t feel like you have to listen! If you would rather use your income for vacations, go for it. Only have kids if raising kids is what you want to do with your next 20 years of life.

The rest of those things you listed are unfamiliar to me. Can you point me to the organization suggesting them?

Swapping the flooring to not carpet would improve the room significantly

Then here’s the trick: only eat a small piece at a time, like 1 square inch. Savor it. Don’t immediately follow it with anything. Let the flavor completely leave your mouth on its own before you have anything else.

You like them less now because you’re watching the “remastered” versions, which butcher the originals.

No, clearly a community called programmer_humor is about serious things
