No, some people just straight up don't enjoy being negatively surprised.

I personally even dislike well done jumpscares, but it is made worse that in many horror flicks there isn't really a good buildup to them because they want to "get" you when you don't expect them.

To come back to comedy, people don't want the punchline of a joke to be something they loathe, they want to look forward to it.
People want to be scared, they don't want to be shocked or surprised (talking about people that don't like jumpscares, off course those who do also have every right to enjoy them).

Spanking is never okay.

Just because you are too stupid to see other ways to handle a literal child does not make it okay to hit said child.
Yes, even if you are referring to yourself as the child.

And please just for a second think about the fact, that you only stated other forms of punishment as not working on you and didn't even consider actual forms of pedagogical parenting, before you black out in anger that I called you stupid.

I didn't even read the article as there are countless studies out already that comprehensively show that hitting children is always harmful and never useful.

How can it be a thing to just make a non profit organization into a for profit organization?

I thought non profits have benefits when it comes to taxation and regulations.
Why can it be allowed that the new for profit organization can just reap the rewards from those benefits that it used to grow into what it is now?

That seems to me like it should be plainly illegal.

The people that

probably aren't the same people buying remastered games on release.

Sellner is a straight up old school nazi btw.

Not like neo right pussy fascism like Trump/Bannon/Stone, but like original austrian formula full on nazi.

Don't even bother.

That person is so obviously full of shit, picking the most obvious and easiest strawman to beat on.

I am vegetarian and know many vegans.
None would even think about torturing our pets to death with food that is not edible for the specific species.

On the other hands I have heard multiple omnivores tell stories about how they "know" crazy vegans that would do shit like that.

There are some crazies (like in any big group of people) and I can't know if OP accidentally ran into one, but the way they generalize makes it clear to me that they are the one with issues, not every run of the mill vegan.

Vegans usually care a great deal about animals, including carnivorous animals. So fuck them right back for spewing their indiscriminate hatred.

What are you talking about?

This strip is not even about the actual Bolsheviks.
Everything the "Bolsheviks" say is boilerplate stuff a modern democrat (or any reasonable person for that matter) would want.

The whole joke is that the republicans frame super normal stuff as communism.

Did you really not get that?

When someone goes low, you sprawl on them.

You don't seem to know what an oligarch is, which kind of devalues your whole comment.

Also I think you are just straight up wrong about their motivations.

No but they can make amazing sauces.

Wouldn't even call it unusable as is.

I am pretty sure you could cook bacon or similarly fatty stuff in there right away.
Then again there are people that see cooking bacon as a legitimate form of seasoning a pan.
