one time in my last job a woman came up to the register explaining that when she bought stuff a day prior the clerk forgot to scan a pair of socks worth less than €2 and it was only right for her to bring it back to the store and pay for it proper. unfortunately my manager was directly next to me at the time and took over the register to handle this serious issue. the receipt she had brought with her said which register performed the previous transaction that forgot the socks and the manager could find out who was running that till on that day. poor dude had a manager yell at him for a half hour about how much of an incompetent fuck up he was, he left the job immediately after but i couldnt tell you if he quit or was fired
i think about this moment a lot. the customer seemed like a sweet woman with only good intentions and when she paid for the socks she had a look on her face that said "i feel good because i did the right thing". and a guy lost his job because of a pair of socks. if shit like this ever happens to you and a clerk forgets to scan an item just think of it as a small blessing or that you had good luck or something. keep it.
i got permasuspended on twitter because i said every living united states president should be walked in front of a firing squad so i came onto tumblr to say every living united states president should be walked in front of a firing squad without anyone being stupid about it
In the mid-2000s there was a brief fad in Australian government messaging where they went out of their way to insult the public as much as possible.
This fad eventually died out after the tourism board attempted the same style of messaging in the UK, causing a minor scandal which led to the head of Tourism Australia, Scott Morrison, getting the sack.
The first time we drove past the “don’t drive like a cock” sign, my mum looked at it was immediately SO confused - after all she’s a good semi-conservative Christian woman. My brother and I knew it right away but for the next half hour she guessed literally EVERY other word for cock (don’t drive like a rooster, chicken, hen, chick, bird, fowl, poultry) trying her goddamned hardest to make the sign make sense until my - at the time - eleven year old brother got fed up and yelled COCK at the top of his lungs from the back seat.
My mum was FURIOUS - we weren’t even allowed to say “heck” - until she realised he’d just been telling her what the sign was, and for the rest of the three hour trip our good semi-conservative Christian mother proceeded to amuse herself by muttering “cock” under her breath and giggling like a teenager every time she did.
We still bring it up every now and then. So that particular advertising campaign has been making my family laugh for over a decade.
This one was always my favourite, though:
Reblogging to make sure this excellent story is seen
It never seems to come up, or at least I can’t recall it, in any Dracula film, but one of the more sinister, I mean actually appalling, notes Jonathan makes about his carriage trp into the Carpathian range is simply this:
“Here and there we passed Cszeks and Slovaks, all in picturesque attire, but I noticed that goitre was painfully prevalent.”
Goitre is, or was, a common illness in landlocked areas, especially mountainous regions without easy sea access. Even as lately as Mr. Harker’s trip, its causes were not well understood and treatment was centered on excision of the distended gland, often only when it threatened someone’s ability to swallow or breathe. The incision and resulting scar were covered thereafter with bandages or large cloth bands around the throat, and it wasn’t unusual to know several older people receiving treatment– yet Jonathan sees so many people with bandaged throats during his top speed afternoon carriage ride that he makes note of it in his little pocket journal the next morning.
Dracula hasn’t been eating well, perhaps, but he has been eating frequently.
not even a full year apart... we stay silly :3 🐈
literally fuck off lol
tumblr has doubled down and after almost a week re-reviewed MY FUCKING TRANSITION and decided it still needed a community label for sexual themes
fuck this website and fuck every person working there you pricks
If you'd like a reference for what Tumblr looked like when I joined it and then you might understand why people are saying it's copying Twitter
The fucking audacity of capitalists to lie on camera right in front of evidence of their failure is blood boiling. How the fuck do they not get the shit kicked out of them daily is fucking amazing.
