Thanks to Fallout I can recognize the sound of a bottle cap hitting a surface from across a crowded room and get the intense desire to go and grab it
We’ve always called this “French Fry Syndrome” in my family, when you go to swallow a huge handful of fries and they do that super slow slide all the way down and it’s painful as hell
You are now the second person besides myself that I’ve ever encountered using it. I have to wonder if it wasn’t used in a somewhat obscure book or movie or something that introduced it to a few of us who have been disseminating it ever since.
But did the food condemn Hamas?!?!?!??!1!
You’re incorect: what’s stupider is continually pouring your support into “the lesser of two evils,” and thinking that you’re doing anything other than showing them that it’s perfectly OK for them to be evil, since useful idiots like your good self will continue to spout this sort of party rhetoric without stopping to think for two seconds that they are in fact the problem. The reason other parties won’t succeed is because of people like you who refuse to even consider anything outside the status quo and will just blindly check the “D” column no matter how many drone strikes they launch or hospital bombers they sell the missiles to. So while some of us are trying to stop the mindless murder of innocents overseas by whatever tools we may have at hand, you sit there comfortably and tell yourself that you’re the real hero here by throwing your unwavering support behind the “lesser evil.” The parties will definitely change as long as we keep blindly supporting them no matter what their actions, who cares if thousands are being killed in Palestine. As long as no one tries to make any points about the direction our society is headed, it’s all worth it, right?
Tell you what, since not voting once for Biden is a vote for Trump, how about I don’t vote for Trump a million times, that way it’s a million votes for Biden. Will that make you feel better?
If you think voting for a genocidal octogenarian ghoul is helping anyone you have no right to call anyone a “lesser mind.”
Let me paint you a picture:
I have one apple. I can give it to Joe, to Dobald, or to Claudia. I choose to give it to Claudia. So now our count is Joe +0, Donald +0, Claudia +1. You see how Donald’s number didn’t go up, despite not giving the apple to Joe? That’s how it works.
Now I know what you’re going to say: that since I’m not giving the apple to Joe, that really puts him at -1 apple, but the same could be said about Donald, that I’m not giving him the apple either so he would also be at -1. If you argue that not giving the apple to Joe is the same as giving it to Donald, surely that means the opposite is true as well, that not giving the apple to Donald is the same as giving it to Joe.
So maybe instead of blaming everyone but the Democrats for putting forward a candidate who is openly supporting and facilitating an active genocide if Joe loses next year, you start asking why they deserve your apple at all.
The part they leave off is you can’t accept gifts over $50 or under $10,000, after that it becomes lobbying so that’s all fine
That was the exact phrase going through my mind as I typed that haha
