Va-insecure

AITOOW wants credit for coining the term "vainsecure"? It's a combo of vain and insecure. It describes people who showboat or run other people down to make themselves seem more important. The proponent is overcompensating (to the point of vanity) for their lack of self-esteem. Think about most rap stars or cornerbacks or mean girls or Instagram posters or vulgar women.

Brothers and Syste(h)ms

AITOOW wonders if micro/hyphenated communities are so supportive, why will they let one of their own shoulder the blame for a crime they didn't commit? I mean, if you are so tight, you know who really did it. Bu not "snitching", It is you and your community that is sending an innocent member of your community to prison. You are responsible for the confusion. You had the exculpatory evidence. You are the ones to blame for the injustice. You chose to shelter the law breaker over the law abider. The system is just A SYSTEM. Garbage in. Garbage Out.

I know. The system is gunning for you. It really wants to put lawful members of your community in jail over clear and present dangers. That makes perfect sense. Remember just because you are irrational, not everyone else is.

Antifa-ggots

AITOOW thinks the left (are they left brained only too?) has to resort to violence because they know their intellectual arguments are insufficient and when put in practice have a hundred percent failure rate? So much for science. It's so funny that the "anti-facists" always act like Stalin. Not that the neo-left even knows who that is. What is the difference exactly between what they support and fear?

Friendly Guise

AITOOW has learned that United Airlines selected the Vietnamese doctor because of an algorithm they use to find the "lowest value customer"? It starts with section (coach) and lowest air fare paid (less to reimburse) and if you are a rewards member or not.

I'm Your Back Door Man

AITOOW wanted to know how everything worked, how all the pieces fit together and now wonders if all he found was the back door to unhappiness?

Fiendly Skies

AITOOW thinks United's new policy is tone deaf? Now they will be bumping people BEFORE they board. They still won't stop overbooking or favoring their own deadbeats over their customers. They just won't get it. What do expect from a CEO that bumped heart patients for his own transplant.

Passed Over

AITOOW wonders why we can say Happy Easter and don't have to say Happy Holidays?

Beef Stew

AITOOW thinks that the fact that everyone is offended by everyone and everything is more evidence that our country is too inclusive? There is no unifying thread. We all think our way is the right way. Everyone is trying to hijack the culture.

You Kant Handle The Truth

AITOOW thinks that people are no longer concerned/scared of the consequences of their actions (ie talking a life, getting hit by a car) and are only concerned with being judged/blamed/shamed for their actions (ie being punished for talking a life, being laughed at for being hit by a car). Anything goes as long as it is surreptitious. There is no individual sense of right and wrong just the collective. Did this start with the whole not blaming the victim crusade. Once we took the onus off keeping people safe through "shaming" them into logical/prophylactic behavior and into making sure they saved face, did we change the whole way in which we define harm. It went from the "action" verbs to the "descriptive" verbs. From the physical harm to the emotional. And now the protagonist has co-opted the same type of ethics. It's not the harm or benefit conveyed, it is whether it was observed and accepted by society. If society says a poke in the eye is acceptable then it is. Whether that is refutable or not. I guess it's just more 20th century Subjectivism.
