Mostly on phones: On/Off settings that have vague names and no description at all. I don't know what is Multi Layered Scrolling is and I'm not going to research it. It stays off until it is explained right where the setting is.

Websites and apps: I HATE a confirmation menu that has a "OK" and "Cancel" type buttons where the one they want you to click is bigger, more emphasized, better colored and attractive than the other. This is common when you want to quit a game - the "Actually no I want to keep playing" button is usually highlighted and bigger while the quit button is ugly, in red, in the corner.

I am 32. I love my dad, he did his best. He was a good dad.

But I will probably never be able to forgive him for the times he shouted and yelled at me when I wasn't a good kid. He went into fits of rage over mundane things like homework and failing school. I remember everything he said in those fits of rage. Every instance of it. And I definitely remember feeling terrified.

And will remember it until the day I die.

Even at 70 years old.

Honestly, I figured that they collected data. But I didn't think the extent of it would be stuff like my sex life and genetic data. How the hell do those work?

I always wondered if there were people oblivious to porn on reddit. It always seemed like common knowledge those days.

It's not the usual manufactured porn by companies, it's usually people showcasing a video of themselves.

Funnily enough, the third wish is actually one of the most positive things that can happen here.

Now people will fuck each other all day without having to worry about getting pregnant. No pills, no implants, no hormone. It's just good ol' pleasure now.

I love the notion that you get notified for being hacked, and that you have anti-hacking counter measures that need to be manually activated to take effect.

Honestly I don't see most of the indie companies keep working with Unity unless they have no choice. Even if they roll it back, who's to say that they won't do that again next year?

The fact that they count you retroactively for eligibility means they want to try and rake as much money as possible.

I guarantee any fat man in the world can walk into an ER with chest pains, and they’d check his heart, not put him on a diet.

This is anecdotal, but my dad who is a very fat person (180 kg) has been told by a variety of doctors that his chest pains are because he is fat. He should lose the fat and the pain would disappear. No screenings done, for years. They usually just gave him some generic painkillers and told him to lose weight and sent him home.

At some point the pain intensifies heavily and he had an heart attack. In the ER they stabilized him, blamed it on him being fat again and let him go again.

My dad decided enough was enough, and sought out private clinics. It turns out he had a rip somewhere in his chest that created cysts - or something - I was 6 years old at the time and never really understood what it actually was - which had nothing to do with him being fat. They put him in a surgery, fixed that and he was good as new. Still fat to this day, but has pains mostly from being old.

I think the bias against fat people is cross gender, unfortunately.

EDIT: spelling.

That is why we banned abortion, no? Because we care about babies?

No, we banned abortion to keep controlling women and make sure they keep their head low and their financial situation lower. And it works so well that they have to shoplift, in which case we can justify killing them. Mission accomplished!

Honestly, fuck humanity.

To eat in a bakery? Sure.

This is how you know that being rich sets you up for life. It doesn't matter what they'll do - it'll end up a slap on the wrist at best. The system is unjust and corrupt.

I've never, not once in my life, saw an ad which managed to make me buy something.

It doesn't matter what it's selling. The fact that it's disrupting whatever I'm doing or making my experience worst makes me refuse to buy whatever it's selling, and it doesn't matter how personalized it'll get. I will never be influenced to buy something just because I saw it on an ad.

This feature will literally do nothing for me. I'll still block ads, or if they are unblockable for any reason, I'll just ignore them until they're done.
