At the very least it's a repost, I've definitely read the hula hooping bit before.

Was just gonna come say this.

Sure, it doesn't really make sense, but for all we know it was still a fairly fresh wound. And even if it wasn't - There's no timer on how long it takes to heal. Had a coworker who went through something similar, it has been something like 10 years and he still has trouble thinking about dating again. He returns to the thought about him "betraying" his spouse - Even though he knows with absolute certainty (and his spouse told him beforehand that it would be ok) that they would never be angry about them dating again after they passed.

It's just how our brains are wired.

It both does and doesn't change the meaning. It literally changes the meaning, but in context it means the same thing.

"You already have the truth" and "You can't handle the truth", in this context, tell them they already know what the truth is - They just have never been willing to accept it to this point.

But truthfully, it is shorter, and it flows a lot better in the revised version. "You already have the truth" just sounds so robotic.

That's the trick. They find the phone, but it's lacking charge, and they don't recognize the charge port.

They have to go on a wacky adventure across the future to find the one remaining universal charger that includes the Nokia's charger. But once it charges, it functions perfectly.

This. Buy tons of them. Use nothing but these cups.

Then ask her to stop her cups from mating - They're starting to cover the floor. "I would stop putting them there but I can't possibly be buying them, so it couldn't be me. They're your cups and only your cups."

Or, better yet, gift a set to every class. Watch her implode when EVERY class has "her cups."

>but it seems like being able to more quickly adapt the technology and making it cleaner would be good thing

You're thinking too much like a smart person.

You have to dumb it down for them. If they change now, it costs them money, and that's bad. So they don't change. Anything in the future is "potential" even if it's highly likely to occur, so right now all it would do is cost, no matter the future gains.

>because it's cheap and works well,

That's precisely why. If they can save a few cents, and nobody stops them, why would they change?

This. There's no good way to find out your kid is sexually active, but if anything, she did it about as right as possible.

Which is to say, embarrass the hell out of you and remind you why not to plan to have sex while she's home. ; )

Got it, my bad. Hard to read intent on the ninternets.

Now that you've linked it, do you want to point to any part of it that is against my claim?

If you're suggesting they didn't offer her subsidized taxi's, or didn't recommend taxi usage, that's going to come down to a he-said-she-said situation. She will obviously claim they didn't offer - They will obviously claim they did offer. Without proof of guilt, the bar will not be held responsible. We don't know if it was or wasn't offered.

If you're suggesting they didn't "inform guests that intoxicated persons will be put into taxi's," again, that's going to be a he-said-she-said. Obviously, she's going to say they didn't inform her a taxi was an option. Obviously, they're going to say they did offer a taxi. Again, without proof of guilt, the bar cannot be legally held responsible.

They can't force her to take options they offer, and at no point is the bar required to ensure a leaving guest takes a specific mode of transportation. Once again, they cannot be held legally responsible for her drunken decision to get in her car and drive when she knows she shouldn't. She still had the option to call for another ride, if she really didn't want to utilize their services offered. (Which we can't KNOW were offered, but seem very likely to have been offered in my opinion.)

Lastly, her two claims are opposite one another. She claims they shouldn't have let her leave because she appeared too drunk and must have been ignorant of that fact AND the fact that she was driving home - But also, claims they continued to serve her despite looking too drunk. Let's remind everyone here, she was kicked out because they stopped serving her because she appeared too drunk, and she caused a scene over it. She only got kicked out in the first place because the bar was very well aware of how drunk she was and stopped serving her because of it.

Everything she's claimed is dubious at best, and ultimately comes down to presuming the bar did EVERYTHING wrong with no evidence, and not the drunk person who got behind the wheel of a vehicle knowing they'd just gotten kicked out of a bar for being too drunk.

>I doubt this venue's owner wants anything to do with setting a legal precedent by losing on something like this.

There's no chance they settle, because there's no chance they lose.

The bar doesn't have a responsibility to make sure you have a safe way home. Legally speaking, you're required to know your way home before getting blackout wasted, so the bar CAN'T reliably serve anyone if they have to confirm you have a safe way home first. Anyone in that situation could just lie and leave MASSIVE legal repercussions with the bar.

Theoretical question: If the bar didn't kick her out, how would she have gotten home? Was she just not planning to leave all night? No obviously not - She had plans to drive. If she apparently had no other way home, she wasn't going to suddenly become LESS wasted by drinking more. Theoretically speaking, they could have kept her in the bar, but that makes her a nuisance to other customers, especially if she's just going to complain about wanting to drink and try to leave when she can't get more drinks. They can't legally detain her.

Not a single part of her claim places the onus of the explosion on the bar. The bar acted responsibly and stopped her from drinking when she appeared too drunk. They have no obligation to safely see her home in addition to stopping her from drinking, they can't say "No you're not going anywhere, you're too drunk," because they don't have the right to detain anyone - And no, she absolutely did not have to drive home, she could have called a friend, a family member, a cab, an uber - There are many options in this day and age that you're expected to consider BEFORE drinking, which she clearly did not.

SHE acted irresponsibly by having no way home after drinking heavily. DUI falls on the driver, not on the person who served the driver.

Same way here. And somehow people look at me funny when I say "No, I'm not going to spend 30 mins researching this when there should be a readily available answer, someone just has to tell me where to find the answer and save us all time."

Why is common sense so uncommon? It's almost like I'm trying not to waste your time by not wasting my time.

It's more analogous to something you cherish than any real concept.

In real life, you may remember your first game of basketball, or you may not remember something of the sort until you win a big championship game. But there's no biological or emotional guarantee that you'll remember it any better than any other thing you do, even if you really like basketball.

In addition, you'll notice in real life that we're more likely to remember bad events, rather than good. While you might not remember the championship game or the resulting celebration quite as well, you will almost definitely remember the exact position you recall being in when the ball broke your nose during one game. Despite Inside Out's attempt to show "core memories" as a good thing, it's more likely that if they were to have a real life counterpart, it would be trauma rather than anything good, as things which are traumatic for the brain tend to induce more recollection of it.

So long story short: No, core memories aren't really a thing, although you could easily relate it to the way high emotion/trauma tends to induce greater recollections of events. It's one of the many ways movies like this tend to simplify concepts we don't fully understand yet to make a feel good story out of it.
