You would think the Americans would get tired of this whole “blow up your own boat and then go to war” strategy.

Or the tried and true "get your boat blown up and then call the people who did it your greatest ally"

Rock stations be like “We only do three things here, drink beer, watch sports, and play the hardest rock in the whole world, and if you don’t like it you can pull that tampon out of your vagina you girl” [plays Thunder by Imagine Dragons]

“I grew up in Hungary.  Back then we were cut off from the world.  We could only visit other socialist countries.  We were always told: ‘The country you live in is enough.  You don’t need more. Everything coming from the outside is not good.’  So we were always ten years behind in music.  But if you stayed up late, you could listen to an underground radio station from Germany.  The frequency barely came through.  But I would listen in the kitchen when my parents were asleep.  And if Pink Floyd came on, and you managed to record it, it was like gold.  You could trade the tape with your friends.  My older sister left Hungary when I was nine.  She didn’t tell anyone.  The police came and questioned our entire family.  They called her a dissident.  But she’d send me packages from the other side of the Iron Curtain: chocolate, dolls, cool t-shirts.  She sent me so many different kinds of things.  In our shops at home we only had two choices: this or that.  But my sister seemed to live in a place where she could choose anything.  And I also wanted to choose.  So when I turned twenty-two I hitchhiked to London.  And when I arrived, I found choices everywhere.  You could buy anything.  Study anything.  Wear anything.  It’s not that I wanted something specific.  It had nothing to do with greed.  It’s about choice. It’s about knowing that if you want something badly enough, you can get it.  It’s an energy.  The energy of knowing that the option is there.” (London, England)

All the commies reading this:

cashier: I’m sorry it’s going to be a 5 minute wait for your food

old people: let me speak to your manager. This never would have happened in my day. And yet you all want the minimum wage raised. I’m going to kill you.

cashier: I’m sorry it’s going to be a 5 minute wait for your food

millennials: okay, my apologies. I apologize for the inconvenience. I’m sorry I’m here.

me, walking into a store: are you guys busy? i can come back later. please don’t push yourselves on my account. things happen

Had a baby boomer in front of me at the Dairy Queen. She INSISTED she was a Blizzard EXPERT and there was simply NOT ENOUGH chocolate pieces in her blizzard and she wanted to complain to "whoever is in charge". She's going on and on with this teenager. The teenager is calmly explaining they make them all the same etc etc procedure etc etc. But this woman is now yelling at the teen.

So I walk past the woman and put money in teen's tip jar. Haven't even gotten ice cream yet.

Woman looks at me. Turns back and yells some more with the teen. I put more money in the tip jar.

The teen smiles at me. The woman can't think of what to say to me and stops yelling, because I'm looking at her dead in the eye like "atm is over there, I can go all night. The more you yell at her, the more money she makes."

Aggressive generosity to combat boomer selfishness is so punk

They keep doing Post Malone dirty. Damn.

Maybe if he didn’t look like a grown man manifestation of Pigpen from Peanuts it wouldn’t keep happening.

Giveaways that someone is American, as told by non-Americans.

Accurate.

This is oddly comforting.

Idk why I was expecting a list of negative shit

We do do these things a lot and it’s so nice to hear them in a positive light because so often I feel like we’re hated on. Never in my life have I had someone from another country call us friendly. They always say we’re loud and obnoxious (not that that’s not true, it often can be). It’s such a relief to hear something else.

white liberals learned the word "colonialism" and haven't shut up since

sex? colonialism. farming? colonialism. being gay? colonialism. women? colonialism. watching a film? colonialism. having critical thinking skills? colonialism. hotel? trivago

oh yeah do you all know that guy that draws maids skateboarding? you know

well he can shred pretty well and is able to use himself as reference, mad lad

This has become a big issue over on Twitter, where people who have only watched My Hero Academia and wear DragonBall Z hoodies discovered what NSFW fanart is and are freaking out over it

I fucking knew MHA would eventually start this shit

You dont want echo chambers with politics or your worldview

But those are not hobbies and should not replace then or be treated as such
