If everyone else jumped off a cliff, would you do it too?



My parents used to say "your friends" instead of "everyone else" and I used to say "yes" because my friends are the kind of people that if they were to jump off a cliff, they would have calculated to trajectory, the physics, foreseen the landing point and probably even taken security measures.


And everytime I said "yes" I felt like that one meme that says "Joke's on you, I' m into that shit."







And for all the people who said "No", You obviously did not watch M Night Shyamalan's movie The Happening.

The characters in The Happening had great reasoning. The plants started warning people they were in a 00s Shyamalan movie. I'd lie down in front of a combine, too.

(PS - please don't watch it, it's awful, and I can't get you your 90 minutes back. In short, your friends might jump off without any good reason)

Philosophizing The Big Question

Life. What is it? That is a philosophical question. It’s probably the oldest question in history. But does it have an answer? Of course it does. It’s been, what, a thousand years of humankind? Of course someone would’ve answered it by now. And people have, they’ve answered and created careers out of it. Entire lives based on that question. There was Diogenes, a beggar kind of guy who eventually became one of the founding members of a branch in Greek philosophy. This dude existed around the time of Alexander the Great and Plato and Socrates. There’s a story about him; One day Diogenes is out in the beach just chilling when Alexander the Great approaches him and asks “I have a huge empire, it is the greatest, tell me what you want and I will bring it to you!” Diogenes replies with annoyance on his face “Get out of my sunlight.” Alexander, being a proud dude, says “if I wasn’t Alexander, I’d be Diogenes.” To this, Diogenes replies “if I wasn’t Diogenes, I’d be Diogenes”. Diog...

Islam: Religion and Followers

At the SPEAKout@ROM, August 6, 2010, Ahmed Al Ahmady presented a poem relating to the stereotypes of Muslims and the real meaning of Islam. He supported that religion is actually based on peace. He also reminds us that the media coverage on Muslims is not always accurate, and usually biased against them. The media has shown Muslims as terrorists and the public agrees without raising questions. There do exist many different groups of Muslims all over the world and each group has its own belief. They are not all bad. He says that after 9/11, even the Muslims are afraid and there has been a rise in hate crimes. He also suggests that instead of being divided, the Muslim community should come forward and say something especially when they know matters related to the terrorist activities. "Because if you look the other way, you're better off blind.". According to him, the Muslim community should have unity and feel secure just like the rest of humanity instead of being marked a...

The Internaut's Theory of Workplace Popularity

Brenda got the promotion! She doesn't even work. She just gossips all day with the boss. She just pawns off her work onto us and I've been working overtime and the boss won't even look at me!! We've all been there, either in school, or our workplace. We have seen this happen. Entire movies and TV shows have been made on this situation. Well, in this post, we look at my theory of why this happens and once you know why it happens, you'll know what to do about it.  Reddit user u/ghkuuk said in his post on the subreddit r/Showerthoughts, "Being proactive is rarely rewarded, because if your actions avoid a tragedy, there is no tragedy to prove your actions were warranted."   Employees that are consistent in their work / duties are constantly overlooked. This is so common in workplaces to see. The other place this is common in is places of study like schools and universities among students. Teachers tend to focus on students who do badly in school and never seem...
