How about YOU stop being an asshole. We don't "choose" to be poor. We have a million things getting in the fucking way constantly, which makes it impossible for us to make money. We have to pay for food, water, internet, electricity, and other shit already, and it practically eats up all of our savings at the same time we are trying to save UP money to afford a better place to live in. "Just get a job then" What if I can't work? I have autism and have LITERALLY been deemed 'unworkable' by a professional doctor. I have a million things to worry about already and getting a job is NOT one of them as I can't even work at one regardless. But yet, fucking rich people, I swear to fucking God. Specifically the 'scumbag' rich people. They always find ways to get out of EVERYTHING - including doing their taxes. They find legal loopholes which makes it so they don't have to pay anything to keep living in their mansions. Guess who doesn't get those? Families that are in a financially unstable environment. They are already struggling enough as it is and they still have to pay for fucking everything while rich people sit on their fucking asses doing nothing and never have to pay even a fucking cent! Poor families already have to deal with enough shit as it is and they literally have to worry about if they will even have enough money to put fucking food on the table for their children. Why can't we start taxing the rich but just making it the regular cost of living and make it mandatory and not optional!? It makes me sick to see the greedy rich people getting spoiled like this and us getting absolutely no assistance! "Stop being poor"... how about stop acting like a fucking dickbag? Do you really think they choose to live like this? NO! They are poor because they are having their money ripped away from them constantly from like 10 different fucking angles all at once! Meanwhile, asshole rich people waste their goddamn money on multi-million dollar mansions and 15 fucking Lamborghini Aventadors, and they never have to worry even once. There are hundreds of contributing factors as to why people are poor: they can't work, they got scammed, they're having to pay a shit-ton of house expenses, something always eating up their funds, literally hundreds of things. Do you think they wanted this to happen? Absolutely not! They are already struggling enough as it is and something always gets in the fucking way and completely halts any progress! I have actually had mental breakdowns over having to worry about if we'll even have a fucking place to live, because the last thing I wanna do is end up on the fucking streets and my family and I getting evicted from our home. Like, do you think they chose to be homeless? No, they're homeless because they couldn't make any money, no matter how hard they tried to. I have literally cried some times over this bullshit because I feel like my family and I are living in basically fucking poverty while everyone else seemingly has money and can flush money down the fucking toilet like this. I am serious, "Stop being poor" is such a toxic sentence, and it pisses me off when people say it. They absolutely WANT to stop being poor, but there are too many things they have to worry about, they get NO governmental assistance, and they're always seemingly short on money no matter what they do to try and save it. Seriously, say that shit to the wrong person and you could end up with a black eye or something much worse.

Fuck that sentence and ANYONE who utters it.

You know what's BUUUUUUUUULLSHIT?

DVDs. I already talked about the excessive packaging and security stickers, but there's so much more wrong with them.

With any TV series or movie sequels sold together, they're guaranteed to fuck it up. The first issue is the packaging. It seems like a game: "How many boxes can we fit the DVDs inside?". Do we really need all of this? And second, this is the James Bond series, why couldn't it start with the first movie and work its way to the end? Was there any reason to rearrange them in any order they please? A regular customer might not even be aware of the order. So here's what I do: throw the boxes in the garbage, and fix the DVDs in the right order. Now that's the way it should be! Besides, don't you like the convenience of grabbing a DVD off the shelf? When are you ever gonna want to cover them up in boxes?

Another thing that can be confusing about box sets is when not all the movies are owned by the same company. This is the Bruce Lee set. Would you believe there's no Enter The Dragon, but instead Game Of Death 2? I mean, come on! He's not even in that movie, except for stock footage! Even the DVD has the balls itself to claim it stars Bruce Lee. Everybody knows he never completed the first Game Of Death. It's false advertising that persists to this very day. If you're buying a box set with the intention of owning all movies in that franchise, you need to have prior knowledge, or do the research beforehand and know exactly what you're getting. Box sets are bullshit!

Here's another thing I hate: those little snap things. What's the point? The DVD shuts fine just without those! Break 'em the fuck off! That would be like putting them on a CD jewel case or a book. You don't need them!

I also hate how many versions of DVDs get released. We have the Rated Edition, Unrated Edition, Special Edition, Ultimate Edition, Collector's Edition, knock it the hell off! But what pisses me off the most is when there's a Fullscreen and Widescreen Edition. Unless you pay attention, you might be suckered into buying the Fullscreen! There's no reason the Fullscreen should even exist, and if it should, make it the other side, not its own DVD! It's BULLSHIT!

Now, you wanna talk about "region coding". So what if I buy a perfectly legal DVD in one part of the world and want to watch it somewhere else. What if I travel a lot? All these rules treat the customer like a fucking animal! "Better keep your eyes on those animals! Put up an electric fence! Give the dog a shock collar! They might be bad!".

Have you ever looked at all the tiny logos found on a DVD? Most of it is pretty useless information, but where's the runtime? That's what I'd like to know. It's not on the disk, not on the box, not on the individual DVD case, and not in the booklet! Gee, runtime? Why would I ever wanna know that? How about if I have an appointment, or there's a show coming on, or I'm just planning to go to bed soon. I don't know! Is it such a taboo thing for me to know how long the movie is before I watch it? Most DVDs seem to have them, but they're in such tiny print, they're so hard to find, and they're always in minutes. Just a minor complaint, but look - "153 Mins.". Why can't it just say "2 Hours, 33 Mins."? That's like if I say "I'll see you in a week", I don't say "I'll see you in 168 hours"! The worst I've seen: sometimes, if there's more than one movie, they just add the total runtime of all the movies: "325 Mins."! That's beautiful. Maybe that'll come in handy if I'm planning to have a marathon!

But the most inconvenient thing about DVDs is the menus. All I wanna do is pop in the DVD, hit Play, and watch the movie. But instead, you get all kinds of shit you don't wanna watch! Trailers, logos. That would be fine if you could skip it, but no! You have to watch this bullshit every time you start the DVD. You find yourself pressing the Menu button, just hoping in vain that the menu appears. But it doesn't. And sometimes, even worse, if you hit the Menu button, it starts the logo all over again! That'll teach ya!

Sometimes, they even put ads in the beginning. That's just a step away from having ads on your TV. And I'm not talking about regular commercials, I mean, in addition to that, every time you turn on your TV, it plays ten minutes of ads before it starts. Or, how about even better: let's put TV screens in elevators! Before the elevator can move, you have to watch some ads. We got 'em there!

And if the DVD is a TV series, just please have a list of the episodes. Here, you go to pick an episode, wait for the animation, and then... what is this? Every episode has their own screen with chapter selections. Who cares about chapters for a 20-minute TV show? So, you have to go through all the screens, find the episode, move back up to the first chapter, and hit Play.

With DVDs, I don't care about any of this shit. I don't wanna wait for logos and trailers. I don't even wanna see clips of the movie I'm about to watch before the menu appears! Just put in the DVD, take me to the menu, that's it. With VHS, you had to rewind, sure, but at least there is nothing prohibiting you from fast-forwarding to the movie. And that's another thing I miss. You get that fuzzy line at the top, but isn't it better than that stuttering, digital fast-forward we're so used to today? You get that awesome telephone dial sound in the beginning of the tape. Okay, that's just weird. But the best part is, no matter where you stop, you can always start the movie exactly where you left off. And DVDs fuck up way more than VHS. With analog tape, it deteriorates gradually. Worst case scenario, it may get caught up in your VCR, but DVDs, once they start skipping, they're never the same.

"No, I- am your- fa- t- her."

It's like we're going forward in technology, but only making our lives bullshittier.

And when the Bullshit Man says that's bullshit, that's bullshit.

I truly hate Microsoft Rewards. I have over 30k points in my account that I cannot use for basically anything. For the past few years that the Rewards app was available on Xbox, I was able to redeem all of my rewards and gift cards without the need of any extra information. Every time I was able to redeem gift cards, I did, and boom - they were instantly redeemed and available on my account funds. Nowadays, I can't redeem jack squat on their Rewards program. Nothing at all. They went ahead and discontinued that very useful Rewards on Xbox app that I had been using for many years with all of my Rewards points, and they replaced it with a far inferior app that is just a tab on your Xbox Profile. And yes, it does have a way to redeem your points for stuff like gift cards, but good luck trying to use the very points you earned, you literally can't. It forces you to scan a QR code which, in return, leads you to phone number verification via SMS. I already ranted about phone verification in this community before, so I won't get into it. Anyways, your Rewards points become completely useless. It's like Microsoft is trying to make it so you can't use your points! So, redeeming points on Xbox? USELESS now. You can't do it. You need security info. And if you are trying to redeem points on the website directly... well... heh, good luck. I have been trying to redeem the classic Tim Burton film Beetlejuice for the entire dang month. Every time, I couldn't. Because you need to add a phone number to be able to. No phone number, no movie. And then, when I tried to add a phone number? "LOL, ~~we~~ you need your security info first". And since I don't have access to it, guess what? I have to wait 30 days to get new security info. THIRTY. WHOLE. DAYS. I can bet you ten to one that the offer will be gone by then and I would have missed out due to Microsoft's stupid systrm they have put in place. You know what could really solve this problem? AUTHENTICATOR APP. I know I said I hated authentication apps before, but by God I finally got a phone. Honestly, it would be so much more convenient if I could just use Bing Authenticator to verify with Rewards. But no, I can't, because Rewards still requires a phone number with an active line. I am gonna miss out on an incredible offer due to this, and I am absolutely angry about this. I seriously hate Microsoft Rewards now. They don't even want me using my own points to redeem crap. And this stupid phone number verification crap is the reason why. Can we just get rid of phone number verification entirely? It's outdated. Pointless, even, because throughout my experience on Reddit, I was still attacked by a person with a million alt accounts.

I seriously could be done with Rewards after this nonsnese.
