I grew up in a small northeastern US city (mid-5 figure population) that’s equidistant from two major cities. My city was the industrial engine of a county that is otherwise a quaint, scenic playground for assholes from the two nearby major cities who want to larp as Hemingway while they “summer”. As a result, my city was a weird mix of white trash dirtbags, working-class Catholics, and asshole trust fund hippies (children of bigwigs at the major company located in my city, other people who leaned into the hippy dippy rural charm of the surrounding area).
Well, as is always the case, the big anchor industry in my city gutted operations there in favor of North Carolina or Mexico or some shit, but not before they dumped enough toxic carcinogenic waste into the ground that the EPA got involved (and promptly did nothing). The drug dealers rolled in (presumably to cater to the trust fund hippies and the big city asshole tourists), everybody worth a shit rolled out, and so the place is now basically a second-world shithole. Huge opioid problems, tons of crime, city is just old people and gang members at this point. Awesome.
The surrounding areas are still full of rich big city assholes.
I don’t live there anymore, but my elderly parents do. After they’re gone, I hope the fuckin place burns down to the ground.
#5 tells me that these people’s retarded politics are all basically just the result of unresolved daddy issues
What the fuck is this dude talking about?
She works in theater and looks like that. She definitely supports the conditions that led to her own stabbing
Around lunchtime rowdies, never be drowsy
1000000% she voted for this, though
Proportionally equal would be one thing. They’re trying to make it disproportionate in the other direction, to the point where you’re driven out of your favorite hobby by force.
I’ll leave it to you to speculate on who they are.
GET YOUR HAND OFF MY PENIS
We have to look out for ourselves. And we will do that.”
What is this guy, some kind of fascist?
Anyway, Canada is an irrelevant, gray wasteland. No one gives a shit.
I was too young to have seen him fight in the 1970s, but I was around for his comeback in the ‘90s. There was a lot of moral grandstanding from the media about how he was too old and would get killed in the ring, but the motherfucker went toe to toe with the best and I think even won a world title at some point during his comeback.
I could never get his grill to cook shit the way I wanted, though.
The smelly unwashed radical wing of the left hates Jews, while the normie wing of the left loves Jews / is secular Jews. That’s why this Israel - Palestine thing is so fucking hilarious, watching the infighting between these two groups of retards held together in a tenuous alliance by their hatred of common sense
That’s all kind of beside the point, as this isn’t a left-right thing - it’s that the Hollywood executive class is very Jewish, and by my read, probably very Zionist, too
I feel like this guy was always controlled opposition. He’s funny at times, but even his hottest takes are pretty lukewarm.
How the fuck did an anti-Zionist movie win an academy award? I am without speech.
She has an odd, vaguely Germanic sounding name 🤔
I don’t think I’ve met a Yale grad who wasn’t a useless, pompous dipshit. This checks out.
Yep, I don’t even buy into any kind of mythology that working-class people are all magical secret folk-geniuses or anything like that, but in my observation, the distribution of intelligence among people who aren’t formally educated is about the same as it is among people who are formally educated, which doesn’t speak too highly of formal education. Makes it even funnier when these people cop an attitude. I’m like, “my dad has a fourth-grade education obtained in an exceedingly poor part of World War II Europe, and he has markedly better critical thinking skills than you do, so maybe calm the fuck down and know your role.”
It’s a similar dynamic in the US. I grew up working class and am now in the professional class, and the amount of horrible shit I hear “educated”, “empathetic” people say about the people they view as their unwashed inferiors is pretty shocking.
Interesting that they made the kid working-class. The left really fucking hates poor white people more than anyone else
Is it possible for these people to hold retarded political views without turning every one of them into some kind of gay-ass nursery rhyme chant?
Apparently not.
I wasn’t aware of the Rick and Morty meme, but, uh, blonde redhead was a good band…and yes, the left doesn’t care about hypocrisy
So fucking stupid. I’m constantly having to report on what I’ve done at the whims of someone above me in the food chain at my private sector job. It often involves long-ass slide decks that take me away from my actual responsibilities for several days’ worth of time. It also often involves telling people the exact same shit I told them two weeks ago because they have the attention span of a gnat.
You know what I do when that happens? I shut the fuck up and give them what they ask for, because they’re in charge and my paycheck comes from them.
And these bitches are whining about five bullet points.
Question 2b is a yes/no question. It does not require an essay answer about your naturalization ceremony. What a fucking asshole. I hate lawyers.
Well, that was sobering. I also got reamed out the time I tried to check out at a grocery store in Copenhagen, so…I guess this is a Scandinavian thing?
I’m so out of touch with wrestling. How does it work now? Wrestlemania is a 2-day event? And instead of being pure ppv, it requires a peacock subscription. When did all this happen?
I did happen across Cena cutting a promo on Cody Rhodes on smackdown the other night, and I thought it was surprisingly good - told an interesting story, and it didn’t sound as stilted or forced as the other promos I’ve randomly seen while channel surfing in the last 5 years. Is wrestling getting better / drifting back toward the old school, or did I just happen to see an outlier?
