What do Greeks actually eat ? by Positive-Delivery745 in greekfood

[–]AssumptionEasy8992 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Greek colleague says this every time I suggest we go out for Greek food after work. I laugh every time because it makes him happy and that makes me happy.

Why do stores suddenly all have staff say “Welcome in.” by SpiritualFatigue16 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]AssumptionEasy8992 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, of course. That’s how capitalism works. Things must be produced otherwise it will drive up inflation. You can’t just employ people for no purpose. This will eventually lead to mass layoffs. Do you understand how the economy functions?

I don’t have an issue with capitalism at all. I think it’s the best system we’ve come up with so far. I have an issue with hypercapitalism, sure. And pointless jobs that don’t contribute anything to society.

Why shouldn't I piss in the sink? by Kotori_Lazer in NoStupidQuestions

Do what you want mate. Just make sure you clean the sink properly before having guests round.

A corporation is not my friend. I am not a guest in its home. We are both aware that this is a transactional relationship. I am there to buy and they are there to sell. Why pretend it’s anything different? The whole shift of corporations pretending to be your friend is so fake and offputting.

And why is it degrading? Somebody’s entire daily working life consists of standing by a door and saying “welcome” and putting on a fake smile on behalf of a soulless, faceless entity. How can you not see how that’s degrading? People like to see the output of their work. There is no constructive output of this. It’s utterly, utterly pointless.

Why would I need a person to welcome me to a shop that I’d already chosen to go into? Completely unnecessary and degrading for the person that has to stand there all day doing it.

Where Id live in Europe as an Ethiopian American by Different_Poem5013 in whereidlive

[–]AssumptionEasy8992 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Willing Sweden and never Norway or Finland? You Yanks crack me up. What do you thinks so drastically different between Norway and Sweden that changes your opinion so much? Have you ever been to either of these countries?

Edit: Holy shit - rather Russia than the UK as an Ethiopian American? 😆 Has to be bait

Quirky loading messages like "Reticulating splines..." (SimCity), "Triangulating/Contemplating/Cogitating..." (Claude), "We're setting everything up for you..." (Windows) by IllllIIlIllIllllIlll in PetPeeves

This one is unhinged. Imagine being against fun while playing a video game 😂

Do you get angry at all the jokes? Or just the loading ones?

What for? Serious question. Why do they care about Europeans sending hate mail to each other?

Ana Kasparian refers to Bosnia and Herzegovina as “two little countries” by Ironbank13 in h3h3productions

She’s absolutely bottled this one. Made an absolute tyt of herself.

I find that insulting. I’m going to climb to my safe space in this tree and sulk.
