Hypothetical: Putin declares, “Anyone who opposes Russia’s invasion of Ukraine is a Nazi and a fascist.” (which Putin sort of did, prior to the invasion) In response, a prominent American official (such as the U.S. president) says, “If that’s the definition, then I’m proud to be a Nazi and a fascist.” And a large number of Americans begin displaying pro-Ukraine signs and bumper stickers, “Proud to be a Nazi!”

What do you think of such a response?

  • good
  • bad

I have this flag in my yard, which is an American flag but the red and white stripes have been changed out for a selection of stripes to represent people of all colors and sexualities and gender identities.

  • That counts as both “American Flag” and “Sign promoting a cause”
  • That only counts as a “Sign promoting a cause”
  • Weird flex but okay
  • It’s not okay, I dislike this flag

You and your extended family are given a massive inheritance. Some of the wording in the will is confusing or odd-sounding in such a way that it could lead certain people to believe they get all of the money, most or none at all, etc.

Could you trust your family to handle the whole matter nicely and fairly?

  • yes, we’d do it nicely
  • no, there’d be conflict

Suppose you bought a van that was advertised as having a 9-speed automatic transmission. However, you later learned that your van literally never used 8th and 9th gears, even at freeway speeds, making it effectively a 7-speed transmission (At least at sane driving speeds; maybe if you got the van up to 100 mph it would upshift). This is because the manufacturer simply repurposed an existing transmission that was designed for a different vehicle, and in a big, boxy, un-aerodynamic van there’s never an appropriate time to use the top two gears at normal driving speeds. Note that this is the base transmission; it’s not like you paid extra for more gears.

Would you feel cheated?

  • Yes, if they advertise a nine speed transmission it should be able to utilize all nine gears in typical driving.
  • No, it technically has nine gears, to it’s fine to call it a nine speed even if it doesn’t use all of them.
  • Meh. I don’t care how many gears it has as long as it moves the vehicle.

What’s more valuable:

When it gets dark, why don’t you turn on your headlights/taillights while driving?

  • It’s not that dark
  • I’ll be home in a flash.
  • I can see fine; if other people can’t see me, that’s their problem.
  • I forgot to turn them on.
  • I’m a moron
  • I’m an asshole
  • The daytime running lights are always on – they’re sufficient.
  • My light bulbs are too valuable to use!
  • My light bulbs are burnt out and I can’t afford to replace them
  • My lights are supposed to turn themselves on; if that mechanism is broken, how would I ever know?
  • My lights turn themselves on and that mechanism doesn’t think it is dark enough; I defer to the mechanism’s wisdom.
  • I turn my lights on. ::rolleyes::
