lovely Hot take, get your lovely hot takes he-are!  List of things I am not allowed to buy because I am FAKE, LAZY HIPSTER FAN: - Anything discontinued before 1995 or that wasn't available where I lived. - Any Nintendo retread, such as the newly released SNES. - Any other console that's been discontinued, because I never owned one when it was in production. - Any memorabilia from the following fandoms: Ghostbusters, Star Wars, Star Trek, He-man, anything to do with comic books, Transformers, X-men, Terminator, Street Fighter, Super Mario, Donkey Kong, Metroid, StarFox, DOOM, Quake.

If Szechuan Sauce is a legacy burned into pop culture forever, why did I never hear of it until Rick & Morty turned it into a meme? I was actually at the age where I ate McDonalds instead of real food when it came out (6), so you'd think I would have some kind of memory of it.

I don't have much McNostalgia because KFC is my thing, so IS the Szechuan Sauce that special? Are the cheap type you can buy at other stores that different?

 do groups like "Housekeeping 101" make bonkers-rear end posts like this for the explicit purpose of being shared by people who want to take a passive-aggressive public swipe at their spouses?

Would she make the same assumptions about you had she run into you while you were homeless, that she makes about other homeless people as well?

The R&M guys wrote a script thought it would be funny for Rick to go nuts over some little-remembered nugget sauce, and dorks said "oh yeah I totally remember that and am just like Rick (a super genius who does what he wants and takes no poo poo!) ergo I'm really into getting some of this sauce!"

I mean, I love Mulan, but it's not such a culture-defining work that a McD promotional condiment somehow has a cultural status, anyway. Or is Mulan more popular than I thought? When I think of "Disney's Greatest" I think of Aladdin or Lion King first.

Would she make the same assumptions about you had she run into you while you were homeless, that she makes about other homeless people as well? It's a hosed up attitude. She is in Odessa TX which is the most hosed up Republican town that goes through booms and then busts. The whole town is designed to leech off of the boom and pack up when the bust happens. No one invests in infrastructure and nothing gets put aside for the poor. The whole place is littered with half built McMansions and being poor is a loving sin. The fact that i would defend those "loving lazy rear end homeless bums" means that I am a loser too and that I am attacking her. This isn't on Facebook anymore I am getting texts and phone calls. Setting up a block list. gently caress West Texas. gently caress small towns. RCarr posted:Are there really fans of this show that think they are just like Rick? I mean don't get me wrong, I love the show, but I don't compare myself to a cartoon character... Rick is a monster. An uncaring, unfeeling psychopath who fucks poo poo up and then leaves because people don't matter to him. He is elder god terrible and all those around him suffer. It's the nerd equivalent of people who think D-Fens is the hero of Falling Down, or Walter White is the hero of Breaking Bad.

I remember the Mulan promotion distinctly, but that's because my friend went into McDonalds when he was really really high and ordered like $80 worth of food just for himself, including a Mulan family pack, in a display of how good he is at ordering. e. in my day we got high and went into fast food restaurants all paranoid of being noticed and did everything to show how good of customers we were, none of this jumpin up on counters nonsense!

How did so-called "nerd culture" get to be such a corporate identity that lovely fast food sauce became some sort of iconic item? How much of a broken manchild do you have to be to give a poo poo about something like that?
