As a US citizen I think we forget how much of our shit gets out.

I’m always surprised when I go abroad and people are up to date with somewhat niche US info. I was in Hong Kong and some local dude made a reference to the fatass NJ gov who was chilling on the closed beach during lockdowns.

I do feel like I see far more people complaining about US people making assumptions than I do US people assuming. When I’m replying to someone I don’t put any thought into where they’re from unless they drop a context clue.

Paris green (what I’m assuming the book covers in the meme is made of) is one of my wife’s favorite topics to info dump on someone. I brought her to the sign museum in Cincinnati and she had like an hour long convo with the dude who worked there on just that.

Same and some days I’ll go “I’m staying in bed all day today and not leaving for shit”

I’ll order a pizza and get comfy then regret it later that night when I’m sore as shit and have bad reflux

Billion user platform that’s popular with young people has young people interested in easy to get drugs. Won’t someone think of the children

Getting strong “MTV made my child addicted to the devils lettuce” vibes from these comments

to keep people talking about

Honest question but do they really keep people talking about climate change?

I feel like this is the tenth stunt that I’ve read about then came into the comments and it’s just the same talk about exposure vs art vandalism.

I generally just leave these posts more exhausted and don’t give a shit about exposure or vandalism in the end. With climate change being something the furthest from my exhausted mind.

Did we read the same post?

Music was better when ugly people were allowed to make it

I guess your comment makes sense if you find those two attractive.

Like I get the boomer joke of music these days sucks but my comment was leaning into joke.

Ugly people make music all the time.

You really gonna tell me Ed Sheeran is good looking? Post Malone?

Nothing like having to swat away 10 text boxes of bullshit on launcher start.

When the game finally starts you get 10 more boxes and then ads for the season pass you couldn’t give a shit about.

$55 for 4.

Tempting but I hate having dishes I care about because then I have to worry about breaking them or the dishwasher eating them

Terrible at running dinosaur parks tho

I think people fail to realize the cost difference in sports cars and yachts.

I spent a fair bit on a Porsche but wouldn’t dream of owning some of the monster boats my neighbors haul and those aren’t even yachts.

In the late 2010s and early 2020s, with China–United States relations straining, China began declining to renew panda leases for U.S. zoos.[27][28] The San Diego Zoo pandas returned to China in 2019, followed by pandas at the Memphis Zoo and National Zoo in Washington, D.C. in 2023.[29]The Memphis pandas, Ya Ya and Le Le, became a rallying point for Chinese calls to repatriate the bears after accusations of poor living conditions circulated on Chinese social media sites and the sudden death of Le Le in February 2023.

Same I saw him for the first time in Taskmaster

What I learned trying to turn gamers into board gamers is that most people don’t want to read so we end up making our own bullshit rules.

I found a different group to play board games with irl but then they suck at online games funny enough.

Yeah who else is going to pay for 1GB speeds knowing the most they’ll ever get is 400MB

It’s weird that palworld only accepts google play cards

I think I saw that kid working at the movie theater

Yeah it’s the social life that really suffers. When my wife and I were dating I was doing night shifts 10pm-7am then classes starting at 8am.

We’d hangout after classes but I’d pass out trying to stay awake to watch a movie which would cause my body to jolt awake and scare the shit out of her

Sadly it’s pretty easy to get an invite. I got one from a few friends and they told me they just sat in a weird discord asking for invites.
