I'll help with the deep conversation part. All conversations can go deep, if you keep questioning them.

It's hot out today. -is it getting hotter every year? Seems like it. I think it's global warming. -what do you think the solutions are?

I think Gary is cool. -what do you like about him? He's got a sweet mustache -have you always liked mustaches? My uncle had a mustache, he used to takes us to cool places when we were kids. -would you say your uncle had a big impact on your life?

The point is, if you keep inquiring a step deeper, the conversation inevitably becomes deep. Good luck, and have fun.

I seem to remember Sweden did a study on this, but I don't really want to google around to find it for you. Good luck!

I know how it works. It's just gross. Watching seemingly endless money get poured into a war machine so we can get right up on russias border.. And at the end of the day, Flint Michigan still has undrinkable water. Guess I'm just getting a bit tired of suffering getting the lion share of our tax dollar.

This is the comment that gave me the most to think about. I don't have anything to add, I just wanted to let you know I appreciate it.

You are exactly the guy a don't encounter in real life. But I think lemme is right. The reason I don't hear you, is because if you advocated for punching conservatives at a bar, you would get hit by a conservative. So you don't say it out loud when that's possible. You give permission to others when there are no consequences to yourself.

I travel a lot, and talk to a lot of different people. I've noticed that while people certainly do have differing opinions, it's not as extreme as what I see online. I'm starting to feel like all this hate and division is manufactured. Has anyone else noticed, that when you actually talk to real people things are far less divided than various media would have you believe?

On the vmu, you could pick your plays on football games. So your cheating friend couldn't see what you were doing.

The clickbait is strong with this one.

I've always kinda taken Dave Chappelles take on vice president's. "Here's my Vp. You can assassinate me, but if you do - you get them."

I used to reply to this on occasion, "Oh then I have to confiscate this. Got another one?"
