    “This bridge can’t accommodate your ridiculous treat-truck and we will fine you if you break it.”

    Pickup owners: “tHiS iS a ScAm”

    I bet these same people post comments like “fuck around, find out” and “should have listened” on videos of people getting shot by the cops for not following their orders one hundred percent.




  • The R-slur was considered offensive even when I went to school in the early 90s. I distinctly remember kids getting into trouble when caught saying it, especially if it was directed at kids in the special education classes.

    By the 2000s I feel like the lid had more or less been put on those kinds of slurs. But in the last 10 years or so they’ve made a comeback in spite of chuds claiming that they’re being “censored” now, and that the 90s were like some bastion of freeze peach.

    Any time I talk about my hobbies, I get told that I have too much free time on my hands, and/or that I should turn said hobbies into a job/business.

    It’s like people are so capitalism-brained that they can’t fathom someone having a passion for the sake of the passion itself, and not making a commodity out of it.

    Also the phrase “you have too much free time on your hands” as a backhanded insult. People seem to abhor the idea of someone spending their time doing things for themselves instead of working. Or am I reading too much into that?
