No snapchat. No fidget spinners. Sounds like shit.

I know there were rich and poor, but not nearly so wide a discrepancy and the rich were expected to distribute gifts among their group. Tbr there was also a "sense of possession". I greatly doubt there was no hunger. The other claims seem valid enough, but kind of lopsided.

Not true if you're clinging to a window ledge. Just sayin.

The "secret to happiness"? Really? Are we speaking about the same Buddha whose first Noble Truth was "existance is suffering"?

maybe it's not Buddha as in Gautauma, but a Big Lebowski type cult figure that goes by "The Buddha"

must be the dog buddha, first identified here with what is now sadly a broken image link.

That summons thee to heaven, or to a secluded getaway

putting 198 scientists in a room would probly just lead to their suffocation

the recurring message I get from this thread is that there are lots and lots of damaged, paranoid people out there

But also cats.

Yes. It is terrible that people who know The Truth are forced at gunpoint by emotionally weak people to water it down. And this is the 100% honest truth.

Be emotionally strong, like John Wick - murk dozens of people if they know they guy who killed your puppy.

want to see the dumbest fucking thing in the entire universe?

https://www.facebook.com/anonews.co/videos/1626049667406586

This video is becoming a reality day by day ...

someone i thought was a very smart person in grad school posted that. i haven't talked to her directly in several years, although i do follow her on facebook so that i can get a birthday alert every year and look at my phone and say "oh. it's someone's birthday again today." but i didn't even know how to react when she posted that video. like...is that a fucking joke? she believes that? wtf? i guess i should just unfollow but it still seems like it must have been some sort of mistake? it's been shared like 50 million times!!!

Yes this video is amazingly stupid. It feels like a parody of the intended message. Did lol.

is that video a parody of a parody?

anyway, I laughed, how could I not?

is it a parody? that would explain why my friend shared it, i hope.

The 'react' people didn't seem to think it was a parody https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CauSPiYZ7_E&t=495s

it actually feels a bit like a bad Key & Peele sketch. I can't figure out if this was intended to mock PC culture or if it was just a satire on what a lot of white people actually believe the world is actually like. its definitely not very funny though.

friend of mine just posted this li'l bit of insanity

Let this sink in for a minute.....Hundreds and hundreds of small boats pulled by countless pickups and SUVs from across the South are headed for Houston. Almost all of them driven by men. They're using their own property, sacrificing their own time, spending their own money, and risking their own lives for one reason: to help total strangers in desperate need.

Most of them are by themselves. Most are dressed like the redneck duck hunters and bass fisherman they are. Many are veterans. Most are wearing well-used gimme-hats, t-shirts, and jeans; and there's a preponderance of camo. Most are probably gun owners, and most probably voted for Trump.

These are the people the Left loves to hate, the ones Maddow mocks. The ones Maher and Olbermann just *know* they're so much better than.

These are The Quiet Ones. They don't wear masks and tear down statues. They don't, as a rule, march and demonstrate. And most have probably never been in a Whole Foods.

But they'll spend the next several days wading in cold, dirty water; dodging gators and water moccasins and fire ants; eating whatever meager rations are available; and sleeping wherever they can in dirty, damp clothes. Their reward is the tears and the hugs and the smiles from the terrified people they help. They'll deliver one boatload, and then go back for more.

When disaster strikes, it's what men do. Real men. Heroic men. American men. And then they'll knock back a few shots, or a few beers with like-minded men they've never met before, and talk about fish, or ten-point bucks, or the benefits of hollow-point ammo, or their F-150.

And the next time they hear someone talk about "the patriarchy", or "male privilege", they'll snort, turn off the TV and go to bed.

In the meantime, they'll likely be up again before dawn. To do it again. Until the helpless are rescued. And the work's done.

They're unlikely to be reimbursed. There won't be medals. They won't care. They're heroes. And it's what they do.

cuz what better way to honor an American hero than by politicizing him and using him as an opportunity to take down Rachel Maddow

Hundreds and hundreds of small boats pulled by countless pickups and SUVs

Sounds like a very high pickup to boat ratio.

head for the mountains. head for busch beer

Beer that doesn't taste like real beer is un-American.

That sounds like it's straight out of the Marketing of Masculinity thread.

btw, the biggest reason why most of those boat owners would be duck hunters and bass fisherman isn't because they are real men who knock back shots of whiskey with other real men, but because if you hunt ducks or fish for bass it helps to own a boat, whereas mountain climbers own ropes, harnesses and pitons, and wheat farmers own tractors and combines, which would not be nearly as helpful in a flood.

Nice of the flood eulogist above to make a load of assumptions about men being armed Trump voters because they drive a truck and own a boat
