Right? Just insane to think that Millenials would do that. Now let me read through this list of Time Magazines top 100 most influential people of 2009.

I haven't thought about The Celery Stalks at Midnight in forever. Thanks for that blast from the past!

Live on the intranet!

No, I can assure you they were just shitheads. Just a different flavor of shithead.

Too young to remember all the 90s kids acting like Beavis and Butthead on the bus? Too young to remember hearing people yell beefcake in the hall and being toxic as all fuck because the South Park episode they saw the night before? Did you not have a kid at your school seriously injure themselves doing something on Jackass?

How about get the fuck off my lawn.

Just curious but have you looked into that story on the Aurora apartment complex past the reactionary headlines you're cherry picking? It's way more nuanced and has little to do with gangs. I kind of find it funny that you decided to backtrack with a different article because you didn't even read the first one you posted.

As for some nypost gibberish, I don't care to read it. It's obvious you're a reactionary and have an agenda. The "immigrant problem" is a racist nationalistic bullhorn, and I suspect you fall into that crowd. Unless of course you support returning the US to the people that aren't immigrant ancestors? Perhaps we could find some common ground there.

I'm not sure what you're getting at. That article says in multiple places, and even implies it with the scare quotes in the title, that they didn't find a bunch of gang members in that complex. So what exactly are you trying to say?

Here's a few quotes from that article:

Aurora Police Department Interim Chief Heather Morris said in a statement on Friday that "gang members have not taken over" the complex.

"I'm not saying that there aren't gang members that don't live in this community," Morris said. "But what we're learning out here is that gang members have not taken over this complex."

...

Morris stated that the local authorities have "really made an effort" in recent days to ask specific questions about gang activity in the area and at the complex.

"Making sure that people aren't paying rent to gang leaders or gang members," she said.

According to Morris, the residents they've spoken with have assured them that this isn't happening, and she believes they are being honest.

"We're standing out here, and I can tell you that gang members have not taken over this complex."

Holy crap the wait was worth it! I didn't even know that was possible.

Dude it wasn't a joke 10 years ago. They were just racist insane asshats back then too. 10 years ago is like right on the edge of pizzagate and the rise of qanon. A dude shot up a pizzaria 9 years ago because of shit on 4chan and 8chan.

You might have thought it was a joke, but people were taking that shit very seriously on the other end of your keyboard.

The title assured me that this was not satire. Since I have no critical thinking skills I'm not sure who to believe.

It's real though.

Are... are you a sadist too?

I'm pretty sure they are either making shit up or regurgitating something that was made up by someone else. Most bad habits that people attribute to some personality disorder is just nonsense and you can fairly easily disregard it. It's like the asshole that says they're OCD because they think it means you're a little quirky.

This will spark valid discussion and not invoke weird tribalism that ignores the fact that we're all ruled by the rich under all of those systems. No siree. Just valid, non-divisive, discussions happening for this one.

Gil Scott Heron has a song about Fred Hampton called No Knock. Too bad Heron's work is still relevant. When all those rich fuckers bought their way into space I listened to Whitey on The Moon on repeat for like a week.

Walmart appeared to acknowledge the error in a statement released to the media.

“We want our associates to feel safe and supported in their workplace, and we won’t tolerate bullying or threats of violence against our associates or customers,” Walmart spokesperson Joe Pennington said in a statement. “We’ve reviewed the situation and will be addressing it internally. We’ve also made multiple attempts to invite Ms. Davis to return to work, with back pay.”

For once in my life I'd like to see one of companies respond in the same way that got them in the situation in the first place. Like if Walmart just responded, "lol fuck you idc" it would actually make me less angry than this bullshit.

In almost every case in fictional writing it's better to make up a poison then use a real one. That way you don't have someone picking it apart later. Also you can give it whatever properties you want/need. Now excuse me while I continue to work on my immunity to iocane powder.

Psypost is like the the Daily Mail of science journalism. Kind of just dismiss everything I see from them at this point. Thank you for the rebuttal.

They’re not well liked.

I think that probably would've sufficed. Even the Republicans shun gay Republicans because they don't want them to exist. Gay Republicans are like the most baffling thing to me. Like a Jewish Nazi.

The eggs in the picture are like the most expensive eggs you can buy. A dozen of the cheapest eggs are around $5-6. Which is still like 3-4 times as expensive as they were a few years ago, but not nearly as insane as what is posted.
