Parents really shouldn't be posting videos of their kids on the interment. As someone who occasionally has to sort through applicants at work... yes, we do see these videos. We also see their baby photos and their graduation photos. If that creeps you out... it creeps me out, too.

Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

We all act like everyone else is a stranger and we're alone in the "city" of the internet, but the actual dynamic plays out in a much more "townie" manner. We should act more like inhabitants of a small island where everyone knows each other.
Having literally been an inhabitant of a small island at one point in my life is the exact reason I have no active social media presence that is not pseudonymous. Life is different when you know you might suddenly be recognized by a stranger at the grocery store who saw your public comment on Facebook.
I think we'd be more civil to each other if more of us had that mindset, or any sense that our words reflect on us.
Speaking of work things… A friendly reminder from someone in corporate IT. We can see EVERYTHING you do on our network. So please don’t do anything you don’t want others seeing on your work network.
.... lol. Yes. And keep it off work devices too, if you have separate cell phones. nobody wants to know. nobody wants to have that conversation.
If you have to say "it's just a prank bro!" to a toddler, you might be an asshole.
Correction: You ~~might be~~ are an asshole.
I'd be surprised if this is a rising trend knowing how the cost of eggs has increased over the last couple of years. Just seems like a terrible waste.
Egg prices went back to normal a while back.
