        I fully admit I went and bought a share in GME a while back with the mindset of "Hey, I haven't been to a casino in the last 3 years". I feel bad for anyone who bought in on hype alone - methinks they didn't understand the history of the 'Bets' part of WallStreetBets enough.

        Still holding tho

        Just thinking about this situation, the employee at the hotel could have easily called her phone number and shown it wasn't ringing on the kids phone. She is now known as the Soho Karen and a racist over a damn phone. Hope it was worth ruining your life over.

        True, but you can still talk more sense in kids than adults who have already gone to extremes. That lady went to extremes and became a danger to everyone. After the teenage years, I hope kids grow up quickly. Life can be hard and turning into a Karen, well something went very wrong...

        Too bad they still require two plates, and not one like most of the Southern states. I think they do the two places for cameras for tickets.

        This shit happens all the time. I'm happy people are recording everything now. You can't accuse someone of stealing your shit just because you're racist and assume all black people are thieves. The fact that the manager was so quick to enable her only makes this shit worse and has deep implications for our society.

        I get prejudice. It's not hard not to be. But physically going after the kid? That's messed up. The dad is a better man than I. I would have punched her in the face for threatening my child.

        All it would have taken is for someone to call the phone number of the purportedly stolen phone. If it rang, it was stolen. If not, the claim was bogus. Additionally Dad could have called son's phone to verify ownership. The whole altercation is a disgusting reflection on our current societal bullshit. Beating on a 14 yo by an adult is inexcusable.

        True I haven’t heard a modded pair! Also I was partly in jest because of all the HD650 love here and I prefer orthos. I love the un modded HD650 out of a rig like yours. But I will never have a rig like yours.

        @YMO imagine if there was social media during the heyday of the Beatles, allowing the band to feign greater parasocial intimacy and direct masses of people.

        They have a wholesome, positive "love yourself" image which tends to appeal to many a flawed person (usually female) out there. I'm not an "ARMY" but I kinda get it. The fandom however has a subset which has gotten a bit out of hand wrt other fandoms.

        Damn, I hate tribalism.
