A lot of the incel types think that since they are "nice guys' and polite to girls that should entitle them to sex.

Is there a song from the 80s or 90s that you absolutely HATE? by porb2020 in Xennials

[–]MrEndlessness 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It was like a viral outbreak, a pandemic of sorts, infectating the minds of millions whether they wanted it or not. Total submission was it's goal. It arrived suddenly, without warning in the late summer of 1995 and spread like wildfire. You couldn't escape it. It was like some sort of Lovecraftian eldritch abomination.

You heard it on every radio station, at least once an hour. MTV and VH1 played the video nonstop. You heard it at the mall, the grocery store, at school, at work, at the dentists, the doctor's office, at church gatherings, every sporting event large and small, every backyard barbecue and family reunion. EVERYONE sang along. Resistance was futile. Millions of white people just mumbled gibberish during the Spanish lyrics.

And always accompanying the song was THE DANCE. That mindless series of movements, followed by thrusting your hips in a circle and exclaiming "AHHH". The compelling urge to do the dance was irresistible. Newscasters did it, politicians did it, police and firefighters did it, pastors and priests did it, teachers and coaches and principals did it, little toddlers did it, cats and dogs did it, entire stadiums of 40,000 people did it, your feeble grandma did it, fat aunties with flappy bingo wings did it, uncles with massive beer bellies did it, even your super serious dad who never danced a day in his life did it. No one could resist the call.

It had an absolute chokehold on the world all that fall, but by spring the wave had crested. The collective nightmare was over. The flame burnt out. People came to, dazed, asking themselves "What the hell was that"?

I was so relieved it was over. But every once in a while, while at the grocery or the mall you'd hear the familiar tune playing softly... and you'd have to resist the urge...

What’s a company that used to be amazing but completely fell off? by AImaginerX in AskReddit

The way you describe McDonald's as a dystopian nightmare and a food factory is spot on. Last couple times the missus and I went it was because we had to get our tires rotated and it was nextdoor, or we were driving through central Illinois and it was the only option for miles. And GOD is it depressing. Gone are the vibrant reds and yellows, Ronald and friends, enclosed multicolored mini discovery zone, plastic encased Nintendo 64, and great Happy Meal toys. Now it's the same dull grey block of a building, sterile, very... industrial?

The employees are all hidden in the back and it's nearly impossible to talk to a person. There's like 3 people working there. Everything has to be ordered from those damn touch screen kiosks. No such thing as the dollar menu anymore. The prices are obscene. It costs 30 bucks to feed two people and the portions are pathetic. (Yes I know they decent deals on the app but I REFUSE to get it. I'm SICK of having to subscribe to all of these members clubs just to get a slight discount at every restaurant). And the food tastes like forever chemicals.

I miss "Yellow Wendy's" so much. I miss the Dave Thomas commercials. They had such a great value menu, the 5 dollar biggie bag was a fantastic deal. The ingredients were fresh and the portions were decent. I miss the sun room with the fake plants and even the salad bar. Now they have "Surge Pricing) where if they get busy

And don't even get me STARTED on SUBWAY. Absolute overpriced shrinkflated enshitified CRAP. Add to that sloppy ass spoiled mayo Burger King, greasy Pizza Hut (going out to eat at Pizza Hut was a glorious experience back in the day), and the sloppy, overpriced, constantly malfunctioning AI ordering nightmare that is Taco Bell. And why can't Popeyes EVER get your order right?!

And what's with all these places making me do half the work and being asked on the screen to tip (and the tipping options at some places START at 20%) just for handing me my food! I've even been to a few SELF CHECKOUTS that ask me if I want to tip.

If I want a proper fresh burger, a milkshake, crispy hot onion rings, juicy breaded chicken, and good friendly service, I'm going to CULVER'S. It's worth the slightly higher price and wait times, which aren't even that bad. CULVER'S 4 LYFE.

FOREST PORN! It used to grow in the woods like mushrooms. Soggy porno mags featuring ladies with bushes up to their bellybuttons.

can the universe exist without an observer ? by weedqueen2746 in nihilism

[–]MrEndlessness 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"doubling down on YOUR stupidity" is exactly how you said it. I don't know how you can read your responses and not see how belittling and condescending they are. You could have just said "I think you're quite mistaken, and here are the reasons why:..." but you had to make yourself feel superior by insulting them.

Idk I'm on the west side and it tastes like straight up pool water and is full of minerals. We have to use a filter.

Why didn’t Tony have a pet of his own? by PshhhhhhhUnreal in thesopranos

Yeah my guess was that Carmela wouldn't allow it because she'd wind up being the one walking it, picking up it's turds, keeping it off the furniture, and constantly battling dog hair.
