  • I have edited a video of Comfortable Numb from Krakow when no one was watching. 

    Now Im gonna leave my job (80% job) to work on some freelance stuff.

    And if I get shot on the way home, the healthcare is tax funded. Wee Sweden.

    Do you even know what a meme is?
    This is a meme:


    That’s a gif, requires three same amount of thought (or lack of).  

    I never said it wasn't a gif? I have some basic knowledge about fileformats. 

    Is this a swedish hunter, or is it photoshopped because you can't hunt in Sweden:


    She looks like a trophy hunter.  I never said you couldn’t hunt in Sweden, but I like to throw the word in there now and then because I know it triggers you...obviously.  Your score was too “Insignificant” to tally ;). I’d love to do some moose hunting in Sweden, quite honestly.

    Pretty sure it's about Sweden's declining Moose population due to over hunting.

    He said you can not hunt Sweden.  I called him out on and he's pissed.   LMFAO
    I see that.  I don’t know why he didn’t just scroll up and look at what he wrote.  Too busy looking for gifs and memes to express his thoughts.
    There does seem to be a lot of time spent looking up gifs and memes.  So much time that it would be hard to find a full time job and would lead to what some call “failure to launch” I’m guessing.
    You're no slouch in the meme posting department. Does your comment apply across the board?
    I would say that my meme posting is extremely rare, not sure that can be said about posters that insert them in 90% of their posts.  What makes you think I am “no slouch in the meme pollsting department” or did you just assume that I post 20 memes/gifs a day because you don’t like me?  My comment only applies to those that spend a lot of time looking for gifs and memes and say they do not have time to work full time and are “failure to launchers”.   

    Who in here do not have the time to work full time?
    I have no idea, maybe someone that only works 80% of that because they are searching for memes/gif too many hours a day.  Know anyone of sorts?



    How many weeks vacation do you guys have the right to, per year?
    Seems he doesnt want to answer so I will, zero.

    Right to? Zero. If you’re lucky, most places give you a week or two after a year, two weeks after the first year and maybe three weeks after five or ten years and maybe four weeks after 15-20 years. If you’re lucky. But there is no guaranteed number of vacation days legislated by the government. Americans typically leave 1/3 or 1/2 of their vacation days on the table and never take them, least they be penalized during the next round of corporate layoffs.

    There does seem to be a lot of time spent looking up gifs and memes.  So much time that it would be hard to find a full time job and would lead to what some call “failure to launch” I’m guessing.
    You're no slouch in the meme posting department. Does your comment apply across the board?
    I would say that my meme posting is extremely rare, not sure that can be said about posters that insert them in 90% of their posts.  What makes you think I am “no slouch in the meme pollsting department” or did you just assume that I post 20 memes/gifs a day because you don’t like me?  My comment only applies to those that spend a lot of time looking for gifs and memes and say they do not have time to work full time and are “failure to launchers”.   

    Who in here do not have the time to work full time?
    I have no idea, maybe someone that only works 80% of that because they are searching for memes/gif too many hours a day.  Know anyone of sorts?



    How many weeks vacation do you guys have the right to, per year?
    Seems he doesnt want to answer so I will, zero.


    Right to? Zero. If you’re lucky, most places give you a week or two after a year, two weeks after the first year and maybe three weeks after five or ten years and maybe four weeks after 15-20 years. If you’re lucky. But there is no guaranteed number of vacation days legislated by the government. Americans typically leave 1/3 or 1/2 of their vacation days on the table and never take them, least they be penalized during the next round of corporate layoffs.

    He said you can not hunt Sweden.  I called him out on and he's pissed.   LMFAO
    I see that.  I don’t know why he didn’t just scroll up and look at what he wrote.  Too busy looking for gifs and memes to express his thoughts.

    canadians have no right, I don't believe, to vacation (stat holidays are different) but after working 20 years in the same place, I get 5 weeks.

    Just now starting? :wink:
    Maternity leave is like 2 weeks, sometimes shorter. Paternity leave doesn't exist. Disability only pays about 60% of your pay rate. Sick days don't exist in most states. And in the case of my company, when sick days were mandated in my state this year, they just took it from our already accrued vacation. We didn't get additional days.  Had 3 weeks of vacation? Now you have 2 weeks of vacation and 5 sick days.

    Disability isn’t taxed though. So it ends up being more than 60% of take home pay.

    a lot of the other answers depends on where you work. Some great other awful.

    Sure, but the point is, a lot of that shouldn't depend on where you work. You shouldn't be at risk of losing your job because you got pneumonia or needed surgery. And the issue around maternity leave is appalling, for a country that continually insists that they are pro-family.
