Defending assholes who leave their shopping carts out willy-nilly is indeed a strange hill to die on.

I feel like people always bust "is this the hill you're really willing to die on" when you're technically correct and they are well aware of it but instead of just admitting they were misrepresenting your point because it was somewhat similar to another argument and that you are in this case right they instead act like you are in the wrong for caring about the distinction in a last ditch attempt to score argument points.

And that is a hill I am willing to die on.

Silent Hill 2 takes place in a different fictional universe than 1 and 3. All of the monsters and decay exist purely within James' mind.

4, which was originally planned as a non Silent Hill game, just casually retconned that poo poo in a desperate attempt to make fans freak out over an otherwise lovely game. Its claims are non canon.

This 100%.

I'm also truly passionate about people not getting into the mental trap of thinking they "owe" their employers something. Your employer pays you for a service, you may have a great relationship but at the end of the day there will always be exploitative elements to any profession and thinking that an employer is being "generous" ever is pretty loving stupid.

If you don’t put your shopping cart in the corral when you’re done with it you should get your rear end beat.

unironically this. all stores should use the aldi system. aldi parking lot there is no cart to be seen except in the corral. every other super market carts loving everywhere. being a cart fetcher in 120 heat sucks poo poo dont make their already poo poo job harder. although the aldi system uses no cart fetcher but they pay their cashiers well and let them sit down.

Everyone has those arguments they won't let go, for any reason, at any time, even if their spouse, friends, and local law enforcement are screaming at them.
These are the things we are willing to take a 6er for, and divorce, and a bullet.

For me, I can't stand when people read books in public. Nobody has enough time in their day and it seems more like a crafted stunt that reeks of I'm better than you. They know exactly what they are doing and how it makes me feel, and quite frankly it pisses me off

I bet you read the forums in public sometimes, so maybe it's more a matter of them looking more cerebral than you?

I work with a 72 year old dude who just comes up with a new excuse every year not to retire. This year it was "oh well the shop is shorthanded at the moment, and I know the company will appreciate it if I stay."

Chewing anything with your mouth open without having some sort of debilitating jaw injury or congenital disability that prevents otherwise should be mortally punished with all available prejudice and the body thrown into the sun, so that the great atomic furnace may obliterate every possible molecular linkage that once worked to represent the corporal form of the offender.

Popping gum should be punished with being fed face first into an industrial shredder.
