Currently eating in an extremely hipster local café (like, stereotypically so) - not by choice, but family…
It’s run by women, I suspect for women. It’s… I fucking hate it. It’s the kind of place that refused to serve “unwashed” like me, for two years…
But even now, everything has a little sign on it. “Do not touch” this. “Do not walk here”. “Do x, y and z before entering”, “Warning”, and most egregiously of all “You cannot use this table for more than x minutes, depending the value of what you order”…
Woke shit everywhere. Mostly black American woke shit, which is extra annoying, in Australia…
Eugh…
I can tolerate the rest, but all the micromanaging fucking signs, all over this junk-filled shithole, it’s very… In your face.
They just love their petty little rules, don’t they?
Because they're control freaks. They want to lord over you and all others with whatever power and authority they have, all the while hiding it under the guise that they're being thoughtful and considerate of others (and they expect you to be to).
