oh god, I thought my accidental derail over America was bad, but now we are derailing over SJW poo poo.

this argument is so loving dumb(because it keeps happening over and over)

Hey, dumbass! A Redditor posted "loving friend of the family." and people are paying literal money to praise him for it. Is this or is this not a case of "idiots on social media"?

How is it "SJW" to call people out on their racism?

SJW just means things I don't like.

If someone uses SJW unironically, ignore them.

So I'm to drat lazy to post screen shots, but lately a bunch of people I know have been posting a picture on Facebook of Ricky Bobby from the movie "Talledega Nights" along with the caption "If you ain't first-you're last!!". I get really annoyed by people who feel that it makes them seem tougher to live by this motto. It is especially hilarious because the movie itself comes right out and says that that is a stupid loving way to think. That mentality was responsible for the main characters downfall, did these idiots not even WATCH the movie?

Also, even if the movie meant that message, its still a terrible way to think. I guess being the second smartest person in the world is the same as being the dumbest, right?

I should drag this poo poo over to the pet peeve thread. For some reason, these bad riddles and tests really rub me the wrong way. I am guessing 1111 is "wrong," while 121 is "right," despite both being 100% correct given the data provided.

Edit: vv Make that three valid answers. That's kind of my point, it could be an a substitution cipher, a simple math exercise, who knows? You have to start out by reading minds to even answer the stupid thing. I bet if you give your answer, and I give one of mine, the third one will be "correct."

Also, I don't find that to be a good brain teaser at all. I think it's ambiguous to the point of being boring. And, obviously annoying, since I keep saying poo poo about it. Argh.

No, the answer is 1 because it was already predetermined that 1 = 11 in the opening line.

That's the worst thing about this poo poo, some of them are pretty good brain teasers, I just don't need them plastered with fake statistics and pictures of Einstein, with thousands of pointless comments and shilling some garbage radio station.

Lots of overlap between this thing and those I'm-a-super-unique-introvert lists. Sure are a lot of sad, awkward people out there who want to feel special through the least amount of effort possible.
