If I'm ever in danger of being homeless I'm just going to buy a gun with the last few hundo I have left and start a life of robbing the gently caress out of rich people

I'm shocked and amazed more people don't do this and in general the docile nature of most of the population is the biggest most obvious evidence that Hobbes didn't know what the gently caress he was talking about with regards to human nature because if we were really that nasty and brutish these people's heads would be on pikes 20 years ago.

Practiced as a society it can be very effective at killing people. Practiced by an individual it's very effective at killing people also. Well, if you haven't got socialized medicine that is.

Tories are working on that over here though. They want austerity to be super effective.

The riots will happen eventually but we'll probably be too old to be throwing the molotovs ourselves. The few of you who actually decided to inflict this world on offspring will probably be watching your kids like a proud family at a recital.

Basically this is our generation.



Not shown is the picture of our generation burying their children after the protest is mopped up by government controlled murder drones.

My girlfriend's older sister refuses to get a job and still lives at home with mom at 24.

She was forced to apply for food stamps recently because mom was tired of feeding her.

First thing she did was but ten avocados because "they were 10 for $10!"

Oh yeah no doubt is it a good deal. But no she did not eat them all before they spoiled.

Got some good Facebook/Snapchat/Tumblr/Intsgram posts about them though!

Avocados are pretty calorie dense and delicious. 1 buck per is a p good deal for both taste and nutrition. it just sounds crazy to you because you're an old who resents new things

Actually it sounds crazy to me because

1) I don't understand the meme status avocados have
And 2) she only ate 2 of them and threw the other 8 away.

Instead of attempting to get a job she has a link to her PayPal on Tumblr with a block of words about how "I'm a poor college student* who doesn't have a job** and really needs the money"

Avocados are hip and cool for reasons I don't understand.
