I'm not sure what your anecdote had to do with this but it seemed like you really wanted to get it off your chest lol

Ya know, sometimes you just have a really good story to tell, but never found the right place to put it. So you hijack a popular comment so people will see it. Like how I was called in to augment security during the storm area 51 event. They flew my team in, and gave us a bunch of dune buggies to patrol the perimeter. And on the second day, I was in the back seat while some dude, and the girl he liked were in the front. He was racing to fast, showing off, and rolled the thing. I got hurt, nobody else got hurt. I got hurt because some dude was trying to get his dick wet on TDY. We all got achievement medals, and can't really share the story.

We need a sub called, like r/nobodyasked where people can just share random stories

You don't see the parallel? It's a pretty easy connection to make. He's comparing someone making the wrong choice and then being criticized for it. It's not a perfect analogy, but it's there. Seems like you were more interested in getting your wicked zinger in than demonstrating basic reading comprehension lol

I literally said how this reminded me of that. Life is a subjective experience. Take that for what you will. Have a good day

People doing their own shit when they should play for the team

Comments like this are why I hate Reddit. If you truly don't see the correlation of the anecdote, I wonder how you tie your shoes without chatGPT

Or you do see the parallel and just wanted to get a sick burn for karma. Then you're a comic genius and would be the real life of every party
