bought house 😱😱😱 ikr wtf

whay, or rather who is Blue sky?

you’d be sleepy, perhaps for months or years, until you realize that a fulfilling life is not one spent in oblivion and you find a better way to use your time!

love random comments dismissing potentially good policy because “in my country” which you didnt name, it doesn’t work

what kind of fucking scientist says “huh that attempt didn’t work i guess it never will”?

You’re not even going to tell us what country it is so we can see? probably not, because it is probably a shitty comparison.

and for the record, parent comment was downvoted because it’s fucking stupid. there’s no UBI in this post. it’s as if i take a day off and go to the park and say “Hmpf this is why UBI doesnt work!” like what the fuck are you talking about, UBI is not just when lazy day. the only thing that could make this post dumber would be calling me triggered for pointing out how dumb it is

So your brilliant mind sees someone emphasizing how little work they have by saying they watch movies and you think “Hmpf, that’s probably what UBI is like!”

And now because you think it, it’s evidence? Fuck right outta here chump.

Having two jobs is fraud? What…?

Have you never heard of Overemployment? There are people out there working multiple easy WFM jobs and just raking in three incomes.

You’re allowed to have two jobs lol

Why you askin Lemmy what normal people do?!

Marketers: “So what you’re saying is, the problem is that the ad was not personally relevant to you??? Can we collect more of your personal data to give you ads based on who we think you are?” skin cream

I recently tried to watch sports. It was fun but disgusting. The biggest racket I’ve ever seen. $80/month to watch Baseball?! $17,000 for World Series tickets?!

I always thought not wanting to watch sports was a choice. Apparently you can only watch sports if you’re a fucking millionaire.

that’s wild, what region?

I’m sorry what? You never lived in the US and yet you’re gonna say what you think the solution to tipping culture is? Look I try not to assume that people are American but the alternative to you not being American and making a post like that is you being fucking stupid. Why not just tell people “Just move?”

Although I guess to be honest when I thought I was responding to an American I thought you were an absolute knob too, so maybe you just have that vibe of “I talk confidently about things I don’t understand”

Isn’t that how the Nazi camps turned into death camps? Originally they were just saying to deport the jews, take back the country, blah blah, and then they realized how absolutely brutal it is to forcibly migrate millions of people so they turned to labor and executing the excess. Await a fact-check from a better informed WW2 scholar than me though

the right to “kill babies” is probably what you’re fishing for us to say, right? very clever.

or maybe the way he campaigned on “you wont need to vote anymore”?

Definitely thought this was a statement on Amish Pennsylvania at first… cuz that’s just how markets look like there lol

hey the waiter doesnt carry the food, the runner does that

the waiter asks me how im doing every 5 minutes and upsells me drinks and excess food. now that is special

If you don’t like the tipping culture just go to a fast food restaurant or make your own food.

You know in other countries there’s restaurants that specialize in different dishes. They make stuff that you might not know how to make. They make stuff in bulk that’s hard to make to-order. There’s a lot of reasons why you might eat out rather than make it yourself.

Tipping isn’t essential to this place. If you specialize in making pigs feet and you open a pig feet restaurant, you can charge people whatever you want them to pay for your pigs feet, and if they want it they pay it. But if you expect to hire waitstaff to do all the customer service, you better pay them a fair portion of what you’re charging customers. Giving them pennies and then telling customers “Oh just pay the help whatever you want, it’s extra” is just fucking evil. But instead of one shitty business model drying out, it became the norm in only your country.

Yet another case of a stupid american not understanding how the world works outside of america… no vision of how things could work otherwise. Just arrogance and contempt.

my guess is cuz the server in the Reservoir Dogs clip this is referencing is a she

gladly would if they’d let me

why would I watch

fermented fish sauce right?
