Overused Phrases That Need To Die ASAP

[Revolver Ocelot]

I think you're taking it too literally

When people say that they mean only God's judgement matters

Always took it as more " IGAF what you think"

 

[Dwayne]

That still doesn't make sense. Cake isn't to look at, it's too eat! What's the point of having cake if you can't eat it?

A better statement would be something like, "you can't have money and spend it too." At least you have two viable options, save or spend.

Aight bruh. You going to far down the rabbit hole now

 

[King of GA]

Isn't that usually a pre ass whoppin thing?

So, you're telling me that me, my siblings, and my cousins were the only people who were told that post-whoopin??

Lol

Yea that's what he meant

 

[B_A]

I don’t look at all murder the same

Taking a life is taking a life to me. No matter how many people I have behind me saying "its okay, we a agree, they need to go". Its conflicting for me cuz I want them to be killed and gone but I don't like the idea of capital punishment.

 

[Disanthrope]

Cause you are thinking about “eat” and “have” as synonyms

What they saying is that if you “eat” the cake you can no longer still “have” it there in front of you

? I'll allow it

Kid “I want more cake!”

Parent “You just ate it all! You can’t eat your cake and have it too.”

Assuming a convo like this was the origin

 

[Rubato]

And it’s more like “you can’t spend your money and have it too” @King of GA

 

[B_A]

I always took the cake saying as you can't have it all, be happy with what you have.

“With all due respect” is pointless to say, kinda like a trigger warning I guess

 

[Dwayne]

“With all due respect” is pointless to say, kinda like a trigger warning I guess

 

[loud-ninja]

“With all due respect” is pointless to say, kinda like a trigger warning I guess

It works to focus the tone of the conversation.
Saying "with all due respect" ensures the other person Doesnt get the tone of the convo twisted. There is no disrespect coming from the person who said it.

 

[Rubato]

There is no disrespect coming from the person who said it.

Maybe but a lot of the time this isn’t the case

“With all due respect”

Subtext of that is maybe no respect is due

 

[King of GA]

Kid “I want more cake!”

Parent “You just ate it all! You can’t eat your cake and have it too.”

Assuming a convo like this was the origin

In that context...I get it...

Haha... good stuff.

1.) “Only God can judge me.”


Umm... No.

Anybody can judge you at anytime if they choose to and there’s nothing you can do to stop them.




2.) “I wouldn’t wish jail on ANYBODY!”



So, you don’t think anybody should be in jail? Ever? For ANYTHING?

You want them to open up all the correctional facilities and let everybody out?

Related to the second one, the whole "Free So&So" when So&So actually did the crime. The saying started out in support of political prisoners, but then people kinda co-opted and started using it for everyone they wish wasn't in jail. Like you can't be advocating for the freedom of someone that committed a double murder, bragged about it on video, and claimed that there would be more to come.

"Free Mike Tyson" jumped it off for the new generation. Then 2pac and so on..

I forgot about that, but you're right. Still, even for them, people thought they were innocent. They weren't advocating for some guilty niggas to be let free. lol

 

[Allah_U_Akbar]

Personally, murders need to off themselves

So, you wouldn’t wish jail on anybody, but you would wish death?

OK.

 

[B_A]

...

OK.

Yes, go select pieces if what I said and create your own narrative of what I said, sounds marvelous

Of course we judge each other, doesn't mean it means anything tho.

And jail is not the answer either. People who can do sick things to their fellow human are sick and need to be in mental facilities cuz its not normal to desire to hurt each other. Its not humane to cage humans, even if they are the sickest of the sick.

@B_A

I've done 60 days in jail, and I've done 18 months in a psych ward. I think I'm qualified to speak on this. Also, I have a degree in Criminal Justice.

People in psych wards are a danger to themselves or others. Once a doctor determines you're not a danger to yourself or anybody else they release you.


Prison is for people that commit crime. It's not so much about their mental health, rather, they broke the law. In many cases, if you have a good lawyer you can avoid jail ifs it's your first offense. Let's say you hold up a convenient store with a gun and make out with a few hundred dollars. If you don't shoot anybody you could get off with probation if there are any mitigating factors (first offense, you go to college, you support kids, etc.). But by the time it gets to your third, fourth, and fifth offense it becomes clear that you have no respect for the law and you belong in prison.

In jail you don't spend that much time in your cell. They let you out to work out, play chess, baseball, basketball. You can listen to the radio. Some jails have a TV. There's alot of things to do beside sitting in your cell. Aside from nighttime when you're asleep, you probably spend a total of 3 hours a day in your cell in the daytime. They have to do a head count before and after lunch, and another head count before and after dinner. Otherwise there's lots of things to do. If you have social skills and aren't scared to fight, jail isn't as bad as you might think.


However, there's people in jail/prison that don't have social skills. They get in fights and eventually meet their match. These people get put in a different unit because they are dangerous and attack people for no reason. These people deserve to be locked up because they have a long criminal record and can't even function in prison. They're violent.

Prisons are most definitely necessary for people that have no regard for the law. And within the prisons, there's people that have no regard for the rules in prison,.Those people go in solitary confinement for a week or so to teach them a lesson. If that doesn't work they put them in solitary for a month. If that doesn't work they put them in solitary for 6 months. Eventually they send you to Supermax Penitentiary in Colorado. Those are the cells where you never get out until you die because you REPEATEDLY attacked the guards when you were in a regular prison.

Think about it, a person that could have spent his sentence playing baseball and/or chess, or cards who attacks people, attacks the correction officers and doesn't understand that you can't do that. Eventually they end up in a cell that they can't get out of.


Do you have a better suggestion for a violent prisoner?

Also, a prisoner can refuse to take medication. It's his right to not take medication.
