    “This bridge can’t accommodate your ridiculous treat-truck and we will fine you if you break it.”

    Pickup owners: “tHiS iS a ScAm”

    I bet these same people post comments like “fuck around, find out” and “should have listened” on videos of people getting shot by the cops for not following their orders one hundred percent.




  • The R-slur was considered offensive even when I went to school in the early 90s. I distinctly remember kids getting into trouble when caught saying it, especially if it was directed at kids in the special education classes.

    By the 2000s I feel like the lid had more or less been put on those kinds of slurs. But in the last 10 years or so they’ve made a comeback in spite of chuds claiming that they’re being “censored” now, and that the 90s were like some bastion of freeze peach.

    A few years ago the grocery I worked for got rid of their inventory scan guns that ran on Windows CE and used TinyTERM. They were rugged as shit and it was impossible to lose your progress if you took the scanner into a WiFi dead zone somewhere in the bowels of the stockroom. Then at some point they switched to these shitty Android-based ones where everything is done on a web browser. You needed to be extra cautious to make sure it was actually communicating with the WiFi and remote server, or else whatever you’re scanning would not get counted/ordered.
