Years ago when I was in college, in one of my poli sci classes they brought in representatives of various groups from one end of the spectrum to the other, including stuff like libertarians and the green party. And when it got to the Libertarian guy, the extent of his platform was... legalizing pot and removing seatbelt laws

I was like "Uh... really?"

lol

I'm not saying I have a problem with that per se, but that was literally all he seemed to care about

I was like "This is really the big concern right now?"

The democrat, who was about 50, talked... at length... about how he was a democrat by heritage - that his father and his grandfather and his great grandfather were all democrats so he was towing the line I guess

Which is hilarious, on multiple levels

I told him his great grandfather would have slapped the shit out of him

I don't necessarily care much one way or the other about pot or seatbelts, I just thought it was funny that these two things were like his BIG CONCERNS

Because if you come flying out of your car and crash into me and my car because you decided not to wear your seatbelt, I'm gonna be pissed

Just leave me and my car out of it

Yeah, darwinism at work

Yes, I understand what libertarian focus on. My point is that, of any possible topic he could choose, of any hill he could choose to die on... he went with pot and seatbelts

Doesn't exactly inspire confidence

I had the name first! lol

But that movie is pretty funny

What in the world did I get into here?

lol

I feel like that's a *little* oversimplified but okay haha

I feel like there are specific cases where welfare is warranted, but the number is singnificantly smaller than the number of people that actually get it

Wat

I think it means "throw something"

But I'm 32

So what the fuck do I know

Most of this shit in here is just like o.0 right now

"Is this memes?"

Like, right now for example, I have no idea what's happening

haha

It's like people are speaking swahili up in here

What just happened?

It's an anime thing

I'm an attack helicopter

This sure is a shitshow

How do I shot web?

And it was flat

Because literal photos from space look "fake as hell" or some such

It's all a plot

What is this "based" thing I see people use? This is one a them memes isn't it?

I know doge and ugandan knuckles

32

Based on what?

Ah, so like "Aw snap"

Traps are gay <:wesmart:359946049588166657>

Now it all makes sense

Of course he shot first

Do people actually debate this?

I think I'm just old

Cause I don't know what the fuck you just said

lol

I'm pretty sure committing any crime for the sake of some hashtag movement is a failure before it even starts

And clearly the best way to do that is by being based and calling people fags or something

I mean traps *are* gay

<:wesmart:359946049588166657>

TIL

That swag is so epic it went full based

Or... something

I'm still getting the hang of it

Yeah, remember that time Rosa Parks burned down an office building?

No, but that sounds hilarious

Illuminati confirmed

I don't trust anyone, "intelligence agencies" or otherwise

People still play Minecraft?

Based swag

"as a kid"?

Is everyone in this server actually like 17?

This must be why half the shit I see in here seems incoherent

All gwowed up

Legos 1.0

I actually don't care how old anybody is, but when it gets to the point that it's like "Are you speaking Swahili right now?" I'm kinda out

I'm not telling anybody to get off my lawn or swinging a stick or anything

Based

I don't think that's really true though

I'm on several other discord servers

Like 15 or so

And none of them just speak in meme

lol

Yo dawg how bout those lincoln logs?

Is this like a non-stop thing or do I just pick the most weird-ass times to check in?

Alright, just wanted to check

That's held up thus far, for sure

Yes, as Roy Batty in Blade Runner

👍

My favorite film

Mario isn't anime, but Bowsette is definitely gay

Do people actually sit around all day and think "Man... if it weren't for the negroes".

Of all the things I could spend my spare time doing...

Sawcon? Is that like a convention for the saw movies?

BASED

I think I'm getting the hang of it

Neither I, nor my parents, nor my grandparents, nor my great grandparents ever owned slaves... they were too poor for that shit.

So I don't owe anybody shit

Sawcon deez nuts

Got em

You just got gotted

Bofa deez nuts?

Yeah and I hear North Korea's working on its secret Jack Mehoff weapon

I have a roth ira. I put money in and never look at it.

Because they decided against it at Sawcon.

You know, the one
