Family friend shared this. She is also someone who is getting a liberal arts degree and constantly shares a lot of conservative "we should drug test people on welfare" or "we need to keep our the minimum wage low because gently caress the poor!" kind of stuff. It makes me feel really disappointed. :(

Obviously we should reinstate the draft so those lazy poors can EARN their $15 an hour :smugdog:

Maybe the creator of the image didn't think they were real pit bulls?

Also everyone knows that Akita Inus are better than pit bulls, I've never heard of a pit bull half as cool as Hachiko.

police brutality is something of a big issue where i live in toronto right now, cuz around this time last year, a bunch of cops surrounded one kid sitting alone on a trolley with a knife, then shot blindly at him like 9 times without provocation. when they saw he was twitching on the floor of the vehicle, another cop rushed in to tase him and he died

And yet my hippie friends insist that only the US police use excessive force ever since they were asked to leave the retarded faux-Occupy they setup in my town. I wish I had screenshots because that really qualifies for this thread.

It's astonishing to see that political parties have been mutilated behind the scenes so much that it has been broken down to upper and lower class citizenry...speckling the other districts with incumbent wealthy and lumping the complete lower class into a demographic where they total only count for a couple votes electorially speaking. I'm ready to Execute Traitors in the name of the American people and on behalf of the constitution of the united states. circa 1776
The Constitution was ratified in 1788, the only thing signed in 1776 was the Declaration of Independence but they're totally the same thing :histdowns:

EDIT 2: He has now said that, "scalability wise" the minimum wage should be $54.00/hr. Fifty-four.
I can't even begin to parse why anyone would think that. Is it because Americans are worth that much more?

I've seen this posted without the "80's kids"...and I've also seen it posted with "90's kids" tacked onto it. By the time 00's kids get into their twenties, it will have dropped the cell phone bit and instead gone into whatever the new piece of technology is.

"Back in my day, we only had cell phones, and if your mom wanted you to come in she would call or send a message to your facebook! None of this neural-jacking into the metaverse to go to virtual raves or whatever kids are doing nowdays. Repost if you love being a AUGHTIES* KID!"

Well if you gently caress off and ignore them then you don't have to deal with them! Sounds like good advice, I bet everyone he runs into follows it, though I'm not sure why he's proud of that fact.

Shockingly, this man does a lot of drugs. His whole wall is filled with this kind of stuff, and some status updates where I have no idea what the gently caress he's talking about. Along with the usual case of taking satirical articles seriously.

It's just amusing how much this crap has happened now. Earth Year 2066, Day One Garry's Incident, Slaughtering Grounds and probably another few I forgot.

How can you forget about Paranautical Activity which was pulled because the dev sent a death threat to Gabe Newell and then was surprised when Valve responded by pulling his game? Or Phil Fish. Not any game he's made, just in general.

If you haven't noticed, poors can't afford good internet connections so of course they have to be much slower than everyone else. Eventually they'll bootstrap their way up to good quality internet with no need for government interference.

Forget the dark ages, I want to know how the late Roman empire was contributing so much more "scientific advancement" so much faster than Greece ever did.

:hist101: Roma invictus!

Also I love how according to that graph the only advancements made in antiquity were done by the Egyptians, Greeks and Romans in that order. Persia obviously didn't do anything special, China was just some backwater the Romans traded with every once in a while and Carthage did nothing before its conquest by Rome. Also apparently the Eastern Roman Empire wasn't a thing that continued on until the conquest of the Ottomans.

I had a guy try to tell me that it meant basically that, but without the racial component (i.e. a white person could be a friend of the family, too). He claimed it was a corruption of the word "ignorant". I called him on it because that's some grade-A horseshit and he got all pissy and defensive.

Man, the people I've seen who say that mean it in the racist way, they don't try to hide it. I don't know if that's better or worse, honestly.
