I'd say it has to be things you believe to be true. If a wacko is scrolling for hours on nonsense about how the covid vaccine inserts a mind control chip into your brain and how the leftists are going to come to your small town and force your kids to be trans - then that's still doom scrolling.
I bet that's a slightly unfair representation of what it actually looked like. Graphics back then were purposely designed for how they would look on CRT tvs which add a lot of specific distortions to images. So taking a screenshot of a game running in an emulator without using a high quality crt filter added to the image will be a very untrue representation of what the game actually looked like.
(Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying it actually looked great when displayed correctly, but i am saying it would've looked considerably better than this emulator screenshot)
You're mixing up two very different things. In your post you asked how you should respond in the general situation of someone asking if you could do them a favor, and so that's the question that people answered on this page. But then in your replies you try to apply those answers to a totally different situation.
Here's the answer to the question you asked, and then the answer to the question you were trying to ask:
If a person simply asks if you could do them a favor, then all the replies on this page apply.
BUT
If a person is rude to you first then you are justified in being rude back to them.
If a stranger politely asks if you can do them a favor, you don't have to say yes, and you don't even have to ask what the favor is, but to be polite you do have to non-offensively respond to what they said. Like you can just reply "sorry, I'm busy right now" and keep walking on your way
Magic solution for me? Throw pillows. Meaning like standard decorative pillows you toss onto the side of a sofa. They're soooo much more comfy and ergonomic for me
I didn't say it was a scam by Elvis, I said it was a scam by his manager. Read the whole article, it clearly was. The manager convinced the selective service to immediately draft Elvis before his number came up, lying to them that Elvis would be a performer for the army, but then after he was drafted he convinced Elvis not to be an army performer and instead go into the regular army, even though Elvis didn't want to. Per the article, the manager did this specifically to make more money from Elvis's career
That linked "good news" page has a header saying "Only mods can create threads in this magazine". Or at least that's what it says on the instance I'm on
