And this when I'm saving up to go to Anthrocon for the first time in my entire life, because not only is my job offering me the time off for a change, but I have a possible ride and hotel space. Absolutely hate that some retail workers, if I ask them if someone turned in a phone, act like they don't give a shit and say they haven't seen anything. Don't bother to check, even if I say I lost it Monday. I don't know if you were working on Monday, maybe you weren't. I know retail's shit, but at least pretend to care asshole.

I know your edgelord dicks are so small, but please grow the fuck up, you're not 10. So this is what happened with that. The admin, an army vet that volunteers with other vets, put his foot down and said no more shit fetish pictures. This was the clusterfuck of immaturity that happened: - The guy who was spamming the shit porn started spamming pictures of animal poop instead, asking "does this break the rules" or "is anyone offended by this?" Good job with the immature passive agressiveness there. - Captain neckbeard tried to take the intellectual high ground and claimed that the admin did not specifically ban fecal porn, thus was making up rules. Also called the admin a pussy and snowflake. The admin served in the army, did neckbeard do the same? If not, shut up. It's his group, he can do whatever he fucking wants with it. - Neckbeard above and another alt-right asshole started calling anyone who complained about the fecal poop "snowflakes", "cucks", "whiners", "SJWs", ect. For a bunch of people claiming everyone else is a whiner and weakling, they did a lot of whining themselves. It's pretty sad to see that at least some of the millennials out there pretend to be adults act act like fucking kids. Look at how bright the future looks with people like this.

WolfyAmbassador Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 Almost every video that Google has uploaded on YouTube for the past week panders to SJWs and shows a small degree of divisiveness in a passive way hidden under the message of "love everyone", the typical disingenuous regressive slogan that usually implies "love everyone except those who disagree with us on anything". At least, when Apple sends messages about marginalized groups, they are more inclusive and not so passive aggressive or dishonest about the not-so-marginalized ones. It could just be a shitty PR stunt to glamorize their image as a corporation, but it makes me never want to touch any of my android devices ever again and switch over to iPhone.

While I don't disagree, I feel like the big issue with most people who complain about "racism against white people" is that they don't seem to understand that last part. An individual from a historically disadvantaged group being stupid and awful on a personal level is different from an individual from a relatively privileged position acting the same way because there is no greater power or threat in the former, generally speaking, and no history of violence backing those words up. I can imagine it still being hurtful, because people being shitty to you for dumb reasons is inherently hurtful, but there's often this ignorance about how much more hurtful the reverse is in this context. It gets more complicated when minorities are racist towards other minority groups, though. That's always fun. Like running a cheese grater across your skin. In any case, people just having some basic human empathy and not being insecure and presumptuous is useful here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, there's a big difference between James Baldwin, W.E.B. Du Bois, Angela Davis, and pretty much any other Black individuals then or now calling white people self-interested monsters and Eugene Connor, Joseph McCarthy, and any other white people then or now calling Black individuals self-interested monsters. All those whites from the innocent little old ladies at home to the infamous Connors have had a whole system of hierarchy there to back them up on their racism against Black individuals all the way from their community to the federal government. Black individuals do not and have not had that to back up any prejudices they may have. That's kind of why most white people hated people like MLK, Paul Robeson, James Baldwin, W.E.B. Du Bois Muhammad Ali, and Angela Davis; they pointed that hierarchy out, and they wanted it gone. They never actually got their way, though. That's why that prejudice vs racism thing is important and shouldn't just be hand-waved away. They are different things: one can be brushed off the large majority of the time, and the other one gets Medgar Evers, Emmett Till, Jimmie Jackson, MLK, and thousands of other innocent Black individuals killed and takes away the rights of millions more.

Crazy Lee Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 I hate how bargain cell phones nowadays are cheap as fuck in terms of their construction. Like, those phones you get for Straight Talk or Net10 or other bargain carriers. Here's the thing. The cheapest phones for those carriers still have Android 5 or even 6. However, they tend to have very shitty specs. 4" screens. 1ghz dual-core processors. 1gb (or even 512k, eek!) RAM. 5mp cameras, new back in fucking 2005, and if you're lucky, a 2mp selfie camera (some have .3mp cameras). Worst is they usually have only 4 gigs of useable app storage space, and most apps don't run off a sim card. And yet these bargain phones still cost $50-70. Let's look, instead, at a Samsung Galaxy SIII, introduced 2012, IE 5 years ago. Runs Android 4.3. 16mb memory, 1.5ghz quad-core processor, 5" screen, 1gb ram (there's a 2gb version too), 8mp back and 2mp front. Besides the OS a better phone, and brand new on Amazon about $60. So why is it that a phone 5+ years old is about as expensive as a cheap ass phone made yesterday but is still somewhat better? What about that law that states that hardware will be cheaper as time goes along, kinda like a reverse moore's law? Did smartphones just not get the fucking memo? Asking for a friend and not myself who just lost my phone/had it stolen probably so needs a new one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WolfyAmbassador Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 Be extremely cautious about buying "new" phones from amazon, take my and a lot of other customers' advice on that one. It's more than likely going to be a factory reconditioned unit sealed in an oem box covered in plastic films, like a brand new device, on top of that, no warranty. I'm pretty confident that S III is not new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're a dick over some inconsequential bullshit like melanin, you're a dick, and should be treated as such. It's not more acceptable or excusable for one group on one end of that street to do so. If I start bitching about men and pointing things at the general male gender as a group, and asserting that women are better and smarter, just because women have been historically lower-classed, that still makes me an asshole and it still makes me look like an idiot. Same thing if I wanted to bitch about cis-bodied people versus trans. Etc.

I know that Children's Day is a big deal in a lot of countries and a non-presence in the US, while Canada has its own Thanksgiving and Oceania has ANZAC Day; it could be something like that.

Emmett Till Mississippi civil rights memorial defaced again "Information about 14-year-old Emmett Till, who was murdered during a family holiday to Mississippi, was scraped and later peeled off a historical marker." "Another Till memorial nearby was found riddled with bullet holes in 2016" Jesus fuck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexxx-Returns Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 Other girls get stalked because they're pretty. I get stalked because I carded someone at work and they thought I had their package and wanted to come get it. I know it's probably not appropriate to wish to be stalked in some capacity buuuuuut yeah validation please can I have it =V 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
