I get it, though. Every country has the equivalent of "felons," and they are not obliged to allow felons from outside in.

I spent six years there as a kid and experienced quite a bit. I really wanted to revisit as an adult, but that's not in the cards now. I will always cherish the memories of my time spent there, and I'm glad my parents made a point to see as much of the country, people, and culture as possible.

Not funny at all, actually. I got a DUI a month after turning 21. Fortunately, nothing terrible happened. There are many countries that either consider a DUI a felony (Canada) or just don't want you endangering their populace (Japan). There's quite a list, but it's less than 37, lol.

Damn, a former president is banned from entering more countries than I am. That's fucking wild and make me feel slightly better about some of the places I'll never see again.

Demolition Man was a cyberpunk dystopian prediction taken to the absurd in order to be palatable to the masses. Really, though, who's to say what eventual conglomerate will be on top. Tangential revenue streams and strange mergers could make tomorrow's winners. Either way, the rest of us lose.

Idk... my dad was test driving a Saleen a bit fast and got pulled over. The cop walked up and just said, "Test drive?" Pops said "Yeah," cop goes "follow me."

Took us to this winding road and the two of them bombed it at around a hundred, cop had his lights on the whole time. As a kid, I thought it was pretty cool. Now I think all the adults involved were reckless jackasses, lol.

A white terrorist group filled with members of a white terrorist group? Truly shocking!

The craziest thing that demonstrates how shitty our healthcare system is, is that they made a goddamn movie 25 years ago about a guy holding people hostage in a children's hospital at gunpoint to get his child a surgery when payment was denied and nobody found that premise outlandish.

A third of those predate gen z. The complete nonsense words are definitely on them, though.

As a man, I'd never even consider dating a woman on the right, and there's far less at stake for me than a woman dating a conservative. This idea that decent people should enter into relationships, romantic or otherwise, with shit stains is absurd.

It's antisemitic if you don't let Israelis sexually assault, torture, murder, and steal from Palestinians and other "undesirables."

Yeah, we've really done a fantastic job fucking the world up in the last century. It's truly incredible that in the blink of an eye, we've managed to doom most of the life that exists on our planet.
