what is it about a retail uniform that makes boomers lose all empathy or critical thinking
i was grabbing something to eat at whole foods and one woman started shouting “excuse me?! excuse me?!” and I ignored her cause I don’t know her. She then came up to me and grabbed my arm and went “I was calling you! Can you help me find something?” and I was like….I don’t work here? And she rolled her eyes and went “Well can you find me someone who DOES?” and when I said “No, sorry” she got all huffy. like…..bitch I don’t work here and I’m not on the clock. I need to eat.
Everyone may *think* they hate country music, but when Jolene, Before He Cheats, Take Me Home Country Roads, or Life is a Highway comes on, everyone is suddenly a liar.
I know this is a funny post but
There are a few major points in Country Music’s history that got the entire genre labeled as ‘annoying’
Post 9/11 nationalism
A term that I couldn’t make up “Bro-Country” which intensifies themes of booze, objectifying women, and partying that were present in past decades but not to such an extent
This is Gospel Music But With an Accent
Now looking at the songs op listed there is
A woman pleading to another woman
A woman wrecking a shitheads life
A guy loving the scenery of where he lived
A song that could easily be mistaken for a number of other genres
But it is easier to say that one hates country while privately enjoying select songs than explain why one doesn’t like the current market oversaturated with our nation’s problems of nationalism, sexism, and so on
Still find it weird that hating billionaires is not a more universal feeling.
It shouldn’t matter if you are a leftist or right wing, how do you look at people hoarding billions of dollars and think “oh, this is actually good. I’m sure they earned that fair and square. They will make good usage of it”
Honest to god I could write entire books on the fucked up little micro societies that exist solely in isolated gmod servers
my buddy and I were crawling some servers on gmod one day, just dinking around and being mild nuisances. we found one server where everyone had some ridiculous rank/title–various mythical creatures and wizards and stuff. We bothered someone badly enough (probably made a big mess of barrels or something) that we got put in jail, but we weren’t really interested in playing gmod as much as just goofing off, so we hung around the server for a while. the residents were chatting pretty casually, until someone, in a frantic tone, says “Janus is coming! We need to get this place cleaned up!” Janus logs in, and he has the title of God. Someone sheepishly asks “hey what’s up Janus?” Janus replies with an ear-splittingly loud buzzing static noise that drowns every sound on the server out.
Noir: Has a whole fucked up origin story in which his uncle ben is cannibalised, he watches someone get eaten alive by spiders, he gets cursed by a spider god with intense power, he has his mentor killed, and a whole SHIT TON of other horrible traumatic experiences that include but are not limited to having his best friend lobotomised and brainwashed thanks to a racist scientist
Also Noir:
Noir doesn’t minimize other people’s trauma just because he had it worse
