That’s why I generally introduce myself as a Californian to foreigners, slightly less to be ashamed of.

The depressing thing is how often it works

I had an acquaintance ask me about my opinion on crypto a few years ago and I explained it only has the perceived value and is highly volatile as a result, and that all but a few coins were basically rug pulls waiting to happen. He was satisfied with that and moved on. About a year later crypto had roughly doubled in value and he gave me shit about bad advice (it was an opinion not investment advice) and proceeded to move $10k into some coin I’d never heard of. About a month later a mutual friend said the other guy had lost like $8k of his $10k investment. Next time I saw the acquaintance there was no mention of crypto.

You can literally wear a mask and just put tape over a couple cameras while it’s stopped at a light and the whole thing will just freak out. Spray paint is probably even faster.

In an ideal situation you’d save maybe a minute. But in the real world with stop lights and signs you’d probably be closer to 20-30 seconds.

I was reading the/r/conservative response to this last night and they see themselves as persecuted and are unable to grasp why people who were unlikely to die from COVID should still take precautions against it. To you and me the story is plain and simple; we do it to hopefully slow the spread and help keep the most vulnerable as safe as possible. Hooray that worked (mostly). Now they say “see it was nothing, the vaccine was and is fake.” They’ve completely forgotten about the literal truck loads of corpses and that COVID couple have been magnitudes worse if more variants had surfaced.

It’s awful but I kinda wish we did let it get that bad, if enough of those halfwits died the whole world would be better off.

It’s seriously infuriating having to go into Facebook marketplace to buy a used car now. Missing some key filters that make it so hard to browse.

Almost all the new hires at work save shit to one drive and teams and it’s incredibly annoying to locate anything. Just save it to the dang shared drive.

Yup, this was me at a lunch table at work. Dudes were pulling the most repulsive stories about fucking another chick while their GF is doing XYZ or not washing between their side girl and main chick and i just couldn’t sit there. Pretended I got a notification and was like “whelp I got work to do, later!”

I get being a slut when you’re younger, I was, but why have a SO if you wanna fool around? Like why hurt someone?

Yup, that’s how operate. I went to help a colleague with some stuff and dude had so many tabs and windows open it took him more time to find the tab he wanted me to see than it wouldn’t taken me to search for it. Annoying

Too many centrist neo liberals. Democrats and Republicans are pro corporation and billionaire, us working schmucks need to find a way to get a party working for us.

At this point nearly any device with a screen can emulate SNES games and the consoles that came before it. I have a cheap Chinese retro game handheld from Ali Express and it’s honestly so refreshing to play games that aren’t begging me to spend extra money.

Also, playing fan translations of games that weren’t released in the west like mother 3 and dragon quest monsters is so cool. 10 year old me would be so jealous.

Let’s clear it up though, it’s the guy who invented the cereal who was a nut. His brother was the one who was like “I’m gonna sell the flakes, not the dick snip bit.” They got into a huge battle when the quack doctor realized his brother was making more money selling the cereal than he was selling religious pseudoscience.

My ad blocker stops all the ads except for the sponsorships that are in the video… Y’all watching YouTube without blockers?

We do, one side believes in freedom, equality, empathy and truth. The other side are shit flinging monkeys at this point.

What’s sad is like half of the country is basically still asleep at the wheel and just voting for whatever party they’ve been voting for and are more informed about celebrities than the constitutional crisis occurring.

Anytime a person from a red state complains about California being communist, remind them their roads are paved with money from CA because their state collects welfare from the fed who collects it from Blue states

Let’s just give them the capitalism they say they want. We’re sending Red states a far larger amount of federal funds than they send in (I believe the stat is red states average $2 received for every dollar sent and it’s like 70¢ for every dollar sent is returned to blue states.

Red states are literally welfare states. What happened to bootstraps there?

For 99% of owners a panel van would be the better option, but their masculinity is tied to other people’s perception of them, so they pay the small dick tax.

I rent a truck for the afternoon on the rare occasion I need one

Yup, like almost every modern amenity is from socialism. All capitalism has done for me lately is… Umm… What the fuck has capitalism done for me lately?

Yup, that golden age when we came back from the depression was because of socialist policies FDR put in place and the rich immediately began to vilify (note these rich clowns caused the depression).

Socialism isn’t a boogyman, it’s the reason anything is working at all.
