Originally posted by WellHung Except that Bill Krozby purposely entered the bathroom, not accidentally. His intent was to enter that bathroom, all along.
I gathered from his telling of the story that he tried to enter the bathroom in an absolutely normal fashion, but the individual inside had not properly secured the locking mechanism as would be expected.
It reminds me of this time, back when I was living the #VanLife, and sought out a Tim Hortons one morning near the place I had camped the night prior, and the bathroom lock was broken.
This dude opened the door... I apologized to him and tried to explain the lock was broken, all while finishing my piss... But he wasn't hearing it and took off.
A few minutes later this same dude came back, walked into the bathroom as I was leaving it, and loudly exclaimed an expression of surprise as he found himself unable to lock the door.
Public washrooms are fertile breeding grounds for stories of man pitted against man. -

Then, if acceptable, proceed to provide CPR if you know how to do so.
If you are unable to provide said CPR, use your hand-held communication device to contact local emergency response teams. -

My point about the job market being the least efficient market in existence is something I fervently stand by.
WAY too many people are willing to work and unemployed simply because matching employees to employers is an absolute gong show. -

Originally posted by Ajax Even when I had debt, it was my choice. Until your own your choices and decisions, your choices and decisions will own you.
The thing is that you're not wrong. I don't really disagree with your underling message here.
It's just that it can come off as a bit cruel and shortsighted.
I'm totally for people taking initiative and reaching higher and higher goals in life and all of that.
But I'm also sympathetic to people fucking up. And debt is a result of "fucking up." -

If you know that you're going to lose your job in 8 years, plan your cancer for 12 years.
Fucking imbeciles. -

Originally posted by GGG This sounds like a person who is in debt.
The hypothetical character in my brief narrative? Or the person who posted it?
Either way, we are one and the same.
I mean, I do plan on paying all my debt off. I'm close to the 100k mark (mostly student loans, but also divided into various other debts consolidated into one).
I do take personal responsibility for the role I played in accumulated such debt, but life really isn't as simple as a lot of people characterize it to be.
In an ideal world:
1. Creditors would not be as predatory as they are.
2. People who hit hard times would be allowed a certain amount of leeway rather than be carpet bombed withpoverty tax"NSF fees" and such.
3. People who are ready and willing to work but can't find employment because the job market is the least efficient market conceivable wouldn't incur punitive costs for a broken system.
4. People who are doing well in life would not flippantly say things like "debt is a choice" to those who are not.

2019-07-18 at 5:27 PM UTC in How much debt would it take for you to kill yourself?In a sense, we really are victims of debt.
We are bombarded daily by junk mail telling us we are "pre-approved" for some new credit card that we might otherwise have never even heard of, and then apply for such a card because, at that moment, we are at a financially secure point in our lives...
But then something goes awry (we get sick; a family member gets sick; we get laid off; an estranged relative comes to crash at our place; etc)... Now we are no longer all that financially secure.
Debt starts to gradually accumulate.
Debt begets more debt.

Originally posted by Ajax N/A. I wouldn’t let myself get to that level of debt. We are not victims; debt is a choice.
Ok I know you're our resident capitalist around here, and I'm not even especially anti-capitalist, but you do kinda take it to new levels.
Of course deliberate action played a role in anyone's accumulation of debt, but to just so flippantly say "debt is a choice" is kinda brutal.
It really is more complicated than that.
Personal accountability should of course come into play, but if one person winds up rich and another poor, the differences in their decisions might have been rather subtle.
