Consider building a small stand out of wood (you can easily find thrown away crates to salvage wood, or in a pinch, use your computer desk or family's furniture), then put it on the sidewalk. The next part is the tricky one; get some lemons, a juicer, some water, sugar and ice (you will need to have some accumulated capital in the form of a fridge for this one unfortunately) and mix all of that with some squeezed lemon juice. Afterwards, write a giant 25 CENTS sign and hang it off the front of the stand. Congratulations! Now you'll be able to, after enough time, afford Mario Kart all on your own. but more importantly, cspam will learn the true value of the dollar.

Its illegal to be funny in this forum if you're actually good at being funny, apparently. Maybe we should take a step back and not have 15 mods with brain chemical imbalances.

Nah, vast majority of those listed goobers are alright and doing their best. IK’ing threads chock-full of dumbass internet-only cracker leftists with more free time than conviction, don’t envy them at all.

This is fuckin’ crap though

Forums are for goofing off, people that take it seriously enough to use that as an excuse to snuff out it’s reason to exist can gently caress the gently caress off

I think that the ultra autism megathreads that get a billion pointless posts a day are bad and should go back to GBS where that type of thing is welcomed, actually. Or just get banished to the crew chat forum, because that's what they are. You may notice that I dont post in most of those unless it's to randomly call someone a slur because I got linked to a particularly bad post. That's because they're not funny, serve no particular purpose, and engender no discussion. Then we wont need the 45 IKs, most of which I've never seen post here which kind of says it all really.

I'm glad that so many of the posters in this thread still live comfortably enough to look down their nose on people who are forced to do work for far less than they deserve to make ends meet.

The U.S. had at least 11 million unemployed people as of October (true number is higher of course, although I don't know how much). I'm sure they'll all be very glad to hear that, much like covid, unemployment is over. Jobs that pay a living wage are simply falling from the sky in every corner of the country, all they need to do is go find a fast food manager's hand and shake it.

On a related note, I wonder how many of those widely available service sector jobs are sudden vacancies left behind by previous employees who are now too sick or dead to work. Oh well, probably nothing to worry about.

I have used things like are posted in this thread in desperate times and may use some of them again.

If you don't like them just don't use them.

If you think everyone can just go out and get something better then you clearly don't understand the situation

did you ever make any money off that offsite you tried to run off to before the cabal of sex pest admins deposed you?


if so, can we get “start a failed forums schism” added to the OP?

... i actually put my two weeks in recently and am vaguely interested because technically if you squint a dispatcher is the same as taking inbound phone calls. on the other hand I absolutely loathe customer service calls when they dont perfectly follow the format of calling someone in the military. dont ask me how my day is you gently caress.
