Hockey as a sport is still deeply entrenched in tough-guy mentality (one of the appeals to me personally, but yeah that macro is dumb.) It was only recently that the last player not required to wear a face shield actually aged out of play. If it wasn't required to wear one (helmet/shield/mouthguard, whatever) when you signed your contract, they can't make you start. Watch "Slapshot" or Knuckles on netflix... Ones a comedy and ones a documentary, gives a lot of insight into the mentality of hockey players.

My boyfriend was almost a pro hockey player, until a torn MCL took him out for nine months of rehab and he could never recover his speed in skating. He has a full bridge, part of his ear missing and a repaired finger from where someone nearly bit it off. The game is actually really complicated, much more a game of chess than checkers, but there is a distinct element of violence and physicality.

Just wanted to point out that it was actually helmets that just recently became mandatory for everyone - they grandfathered it in and the last player without one retired in 1997. The part you still don't have to wear is a visor, which is just as insane given that you're playing with a six-ounce piece of frozen rubber that frequently travels at 100 mph+. Plenty of players have sustained terrible eye injuries before they were finally convinced to wear one. There's a lot to be said for being a fierce competitor, but hockey still absolutely has a lot of tough-guy nonsense and celebrating the kind of thing that ends careers is kind of stupid.

If anything, the comparison to hockey just makes hockey players sound really dumb. I mean I dont' know the rules to either game in relation to stuff like this, but if you're at a disadvantage because of an injury, substituting you for a player that isn't is just logical.

I can't imagine that a player with a broken leg is going to play especially well.

Hockey is a game where people argue for the inclusion of fights because who cares about concussions.

They actually made visors mandatory starting this season, but again, those who weren't wearing them before the rule change can continue to not wear them.

Something else to note is that the visor only covers from the helmet down to the tip of the nose, leaving the jaw exposed. If a player decided they wanted full face protection they wouldn't be able to do so without explicit permission from the team doctor, which would only be given for legitimate medical reasons (read: broken jaw).

You are correct, I phrased that poorly. I meant that as new things became required, helmets, then face guards, different pads, etc., players were grandfathered in and didn't have to adopt the new safety standards unless they wanted to.

It's kinda weird he compares it to a jew wearing a swastika, since it's more like a jew eating pork, and I don't know many jews that keep kosher.

It varies. Some rare groups of liberal Muslims only prohibit hard alcohol or specifically drinking to get drunk. Certain branches of Islam allow drinking but they are fairly rare (notably the Alawites who are questionably Muslim). Either way its a thing that doesn't cast you out of the religion, there are very clear and well defined steps you take in order to basically apologize to god for breaking his rules.

I mean, why he's really stupid is because there are a lot of people who wear those styles of head coverings that have nothing to do with Islam. Jains, Druze and Zoroastrians also wear very similar head coverings and I have known Jewish women who do too.

Plus, you know, those head wraps look awesome I wouldn't be shocked if more western people don't adopt them just because they have a lot of color and flair.

Islam actually outright prohibits the consumption of alcohol. There are various verses about it, actually, one of which only prohibits praying when drunk. Another one prohibits all intoxicants entirely, calling them tools of Satan. Another one says that the bad sides of alcohol outweigh the good so you really shouldn't drink.

Even so, the Koran is not friendly to alcohol and Islamic states often forbid it entirely. Which, as was said, doesn't always accomplish much because some Muslims drink anyway. It isn't a deadly sin level transgression and Allah isn't going to drat you forever because you took a shot of whiskey once but Muhammad was pretty specific about "alcohol = bad."

For high-level Islamic love of wine, women boys, and song, check out Abu Nuwas.

As for the headscarf thing, it's been interpreted a number of ways, but they generally agree that you're fine as long as skin is covered. So fancy scarves and skin-tight clothing is a-okay.

Fake Marine girl is at it again. She 'wants to be deployed' but her asvab scores were so abysmal they still refuse to put her anywhere besides the cafeteria. At the same time, she thinks women don't belong on the front lines because they are a distraction to the stronger, better, male marines, or some equally baffling poo poo. Basically she wants to make 90k a year to sit in a bunker and check her facebook.

Nice to see an actual Marine call her out on not actually making any sort of effort while wanting credit for it.

She's not going to make $90k a year deployed unless she's a staff officer at the least. That said, if she actually wanted to deploy but didn't want to be active duty she really should have joined the National Guard.

She's deluded in a lot of ways, I wouldn't be surprised if she expected an officer's position during deployment even though she's in no way qualified.

A stripper friend made a dumb "Haha I only get $5 a night you say? Hoho here's a picture with a wad of cash" pic.

I Got You Tho. 😅 Ima Help You Out A Lil Bit. Throw You Some Chump Change.

Accusations of being a hater were thrown.

quote:

Naw. Not a hater? Tf is there to hate on? Yu a fuckin thot. Yu show yur pussy to old rear end men for bread. Have some respect for yurself.

Maybe a good point, but sort of invalidated in this medium and given the the original post (the first quote).

Friend asks why she has her on her Friends list if she's mad. Claims they dont even know each other.

quote:

I ain't worried bout what you do .. You wanna get naked for grown rear end men & put your pussy in their face then do you. I only come in when your rear end bring my man into it .. Tryna b a fuckin hoe and sayin some stupid poo poo. If a nigga gotta female in his life, don't come at him incorrect .. Especially when you kno that his girl gonna flip poo poo. How tf is that so hard for you to understand?! If you woulda never came out the side of your neck then I wouldn't even b trippin bout it frfr. Ima let you do you, jus don't bring my nigga into it .. Simple as that. & for the fifth time, NOT PRESSED. Jus proving my fuckin point & makin sure you understand wtf I'm saying. You don't gotta kno me but yu disrespected tf outta me like you knew me. & most ppl, especislly myself, DO NOT take that poo poo lightly.

quote:

& on top of that with all these little posts that I KNOW are directed towards me in any way, of course ima say somethin to your rear end. I'm not gonna play & try to ignore the poo poo when I kno you only tryna b cute & stir the pot some more. I'm not like these other bitches, ima prove my point one way or another regardless.

Friend replies with "Ok". Whole situation ends. This was in every way a shameful display for both parties. It really annoyed me, and I'm not even positive why.
