I agree. I'm not a big breakfast food person. I usually eat leftovers from the fridge 😋

I believe you show respect to everyone until they show me they don't deserve it. Sometimes it happens within minutes of meeting people. You get what you give. And that includes how you treat others, not just me.

My daughter is 16, when we go for dinner I buy her a beer, or wine. Which she openly drinks because that's legal in UK. She loves Baileys also. She tends not to have a second because she doesn't like the way she feels.

Not this again. US and Europe have very different tipping cultures and we will only get into a fight over this.

What family would not do that? I am not going to buy my son the exact same game I have, just so he can play! What?

Ads are my personal red line. I block them wherever I can, esp on YT

I think this is one reason BP isn't as popular as it used to be. The number of ads is infuriating.

My own little protest is refusing to buy the thing if I can't skip the add after less than 10 seconds.

Like someone wisely put: YouTube, there’s a video in my ad.

My sensory issues make ads on videos a serious no-no. Jarring jumps to entirely unrelated content that's usually loud, busy and very annoying does not work well with me! It's enough to make me boycott a product that does that to me. I still won't go to Arby's after their annoying ads from about 15 years ago were briefly impossible for me to block!

As I read this, an ad popped up here on BP. 🙄

I haven't seen an ad on YouTube in years. Of course I do something silly and give them $10 a month, because I cree better things to do with my time than figuring out the new way to block ads after they stopped the old ways from working.

I pay for YouTube premium because I hate ads that much. I watch a LOT of YouTube on my phone. If you don't it likely isn't worth it.

I hate ads as anyone but still one has to acknowledge that YT provides a service I gladly and often use and why shouldn’t they be paid for it?

Copium?

YouTube pulled that BS on me where it wouldn't let me watch anything while using an adblocker. B***h, I am not watching a one minute ad for some garbage I will NEVER buy in order to listen to a three minute song. Of course, the adblockers found a way around it five minutes later anyway. Here's hoping YT has learned their lesson, the fools.

I'm a premium member and I don't get ads.

Brave browser + YouTube = ad free YouTube, for free. It's that easy. Forget ad block and premium

Didn't know that's possible. How to block ads on YT?

How dare they provide a free service to you!

Just a warning. When using the brave browser I've started getting site notices that an adblock has been detected and needs to be switched off. Started 2 days ago. The browser had an update but it didn't help. Ranker included.

YT is the one streaming service I pay for, especially since I am a huge music listener so I deem it worth the price. So I can't speak to ads on YT because I never see them. I do, however, use an ad blocker in my browser, and I absolutely will not whitelist any site, ever. I have done that on occasion (and I don't have an ad blocker on my tablet), and the experience is absolutely horrible. A little hard to read an article on your average site when there are eight million ads hovering over the f*****g content, making it impossible to read. And funny how the content will fail to load, but the ads load just fine every time. Yeah, if you made your sites usable without an ad blocker, then we wouldn't need to use one. Any site asking me to whitelist them can go f**k a cactus.

Ads are the devil. I was specifically put here on earth to bock them. Don't interfere.

It's their page, so they have the right to put ads on it and offer said ads to me. It's MY web browser, so **I** have the right to decline to spend MY network bandwidth, processor cycles, RAM, and hard drive space downloading and rendering said ads.

THIS! Advertising sh!ts in your head!

This is just so low in my opinion. People are creating things for you to consume for free, and you're still not willing to spend a couple seconds on an ad before taking it? Google and big channels will never notice the money they lose to ad blockers. Medium channels can get by with Patreon, but I guarantee small creators would notice the difference if everyone stopped blocking their ads. A real "robbing the poor" act by you.

Ah, so I’m not the only one!

Different rules and expectations in different countries. Germans in particular are very keen on everyone waiting for the man to turn green before crossing, even if they ca see hundreds of metres in each direction that there's no road traffic. I don't follow suit and get some funny looks whenever I'm there.

Rules about pirating content, period.

If I see who dropped it I will return it to them, or if it's a whole wallet with id cards I'll hand it in. But just loose cash on the ground, nah.

100% AGREE! People need to be able to talk

It's better to not immediately make your bed so your mattress and blankets can air out.

Maybe pay them a living wage??

No need to do that with 99% of modern fabrics, but take care with new garments, particularly deep reds, as some may still not be colour-fast at least for the first few washes. Dark blue jeans as well.

I work in the video games industry and we're open about salaries, but people freak out if you start talking about unionization. Legally we're allowed to say anything except directly tell people they should sign up for a card. But people act like it's taboo cause they're afraid of consequences from leadership

I just refuse to use Starbucks...

Where I live, you can still buy blueray and not pay a monthly fee for c**p shows.

That seems really weird. If you survived any cancer and are healthy, why would you need a special parking space? This seems more like PR and lip service to breast cancer awareness than it does practical or meaningful

"I met a girl in a bar. She said, you know you're wearing two different colored socks. I said, yeah, but to me they're the same because I go by THICKNESS." --Steven Wright

Like the two ladies beach volleyball teams that were fined for refusing to wear the ladies gear and instead wore what the men wear.

Grammar rules enables others to avoud misunderstandings AND learn a foreign language. You would not understand my English if I applied the grammar rules of my mothet tongue. That having said, it is very confusing that "they" is not solely plural anymore. I give up on quit ea lot of texts, because it is impossible to figure out how many people there are. You do you with your language, but for me "they" is more than 1.
