and everyone who supported them should be spanked publicly in every major american city, on video

and forced to write an essay

I've seen these people and can confirm that they cannot function. Cashier had to use a calculator to figure out the change when the bill for my order was 4.95 and I gave them 5.20

the scum themselves should be given a medal, frankly

it is impressive to be able to cost that much, while doing that little

honestly, the problem is that the industry is dead, in part because local (and federal) laws made it uncompetitive

but the bureaucracy never wants to shrink, even when it must

Half the world wants to buy cars right now, and America is not pulling a Japan and being the one to make it happen.

has anyone ever had a bill that came out as 4.15, given the cashier 5.15 and had them not be able to figure out the change because apparently they cannot count to 1? I have

indeed

they should at least post a "we hire special needs" sign on the front

so you know to be patient.

in all seriousness though

I'm out of sympathy

I have family out there

idiocracy was not meant to be a roadmap to the future......

people like my mother are the problem with Detroit

the people are the problem

they moan and they whine

and when people reward them for moaning and whining, they do it more

until they'll moan and whine about literally anything, except what those people do

which they will assure you is morally impeccable

You can not save a city with a neighbourhood of frighteningly middle-class art installations on vacant lots, but that's literally the best they bother to do.

What's the old Japanese saying? Give a peasant a meal, and he'll keep showing up for more, show him how to hunt and he'll never need help again?

Something along those lines

wiser than teach a man to fish I guess

Because the assumption with the western take on that is that there is no cost to giving a man a fish, other than the fish itself.

I feel that saying underlies so many core issues of modern society. We need to stop feeding people and start teaching them how to hunt for themselves.

maybe im drunk idk

or better yet, letting them hunt like they already know

people are not as inept as they think they are

build a man a fire, keep him warm for a night; teach him to build a fire, keep him warm for many nights; set a man on fire, keep him warm for life 😉

beautiful

Anyone else threw their Gillett stuff away and moving to dollar shave club?

no

never buying Gillett again tbh

plastic crap razors are expensive as fuck, pollute the environment, and provide a crappy shaving experience

that gets you down to 5€/year and you only dispose small metal blades. no plastic crap involved

Man I love the free market
