actually ice cream sandwiches are known as a "dad thing"
THroaway225··on The Who Cares Era
"As someone who has cared deeply about sometimes esoteric things, I've found that caring is actually the shortest path to being _hated_, mostly by other people who care about the same things but for different reasons."

This is too true, and ive been guilty of being the hater more times than id liek to admit.

Yes, and in my generation, Jackass and skater culture gave us all the dream of escaping the horrors of adult life

people are addicted to their phones, its true, and its becoming so normalized that having any interest in talking to people you dont already know is considered antisocial
THroaway225··on The Who Cares Era
I just travelled to a province to pay for some private healthcare i cant get at home. Its a simple procedure, but a specific one. I sent the treatment plan to the customer service liason I was dealing with and triple checked that the doctor i was seeing was familiar with it.

Then I get there and the doctor's never looked at the document I sent. No one even told him about it.

The customer service liason is "very sorry for the miscommunication and will be looking internally to see how this occurred!"

lol you think its not hard being an ugly bald man? The amount of misogyny and resentment from men towards women would go down quite a lot if baldness had a cure...

People like to pretend that baldness is just about men being vain, but in reality, it causes serious mental health problem. If you want to be a feminist ally, find the cure for baldness. Watch the incel population go down 90%. And women will be extremely happy with the lack of baldness in males.

Honestly...I blame the internet (overstimulation from games, porn, addictive scrolling).

Baldness IS a male trait. preventing baldness is about looking attractive, not about "being a man."

They like suburban Winnipeg. They'll circle dogs for a while before giving up and flying away.
