There’s poo in there.

It’s been a while since I’ve been in a history class, but I wanna say France was typically considered the US’s closest ally during and after the revolutionary war. Not sure how close that relationship has stayed since, though.

I’d imagine the Americans applying for refugee status are among those who also aren’t spouting the usual American exceptionalism bullshit. There’s a reason they’re trying to get out of the country. We’re not a monolith, after all.

ZPMs!

You have such nice ways of getting your points across to people. I’m sure you make friends super easy. Yeah, I’m aware I live in a shithole country. You don’t have to be an elitist dick about it.

I see you must be from the Star Fleet academy where they no longer use currency for anything. There’s more to the cost of college classes than tuition.

You can go back to college at any age as long as you’ve got the money for classes.

Signs and symptoms of a stroke.

You’re a vile sub-human piece of garbage and you’ll never amount to anything.

(Am I doing it right? Are you motivated yet? I’m helping!)

The difference is you’re acknowledging it now that you get it. Other person is just being deliberately obtuse. The downvotes are entirely appropriate.

Other languages exist, you know.

I always thought it meant idiot or dunce. Glad I never used it, lol.

You watched Kaos, too? I love Jeff Goldblum.

I deleted my Reddit account and switched to Lemmy after the API stuff. I kinda regret deleting my account because it wasn’t until after that I learned about the apps that would scrub your comment history, but Reddit has a tendency to roll those back anyway.

I still sometimes end up on a Reddit thread when searching for some technical issue, but I generally try to browse other forums for solutions first if possible.

ETA: all other social media stuff like Instagram and Facebook I deleted around the time of Trump’s first election. Just got sick of the constant stream of bullshit.

Definitely got a chuckle when Eddie Izzard talked about how Europeans just “long for a bungalow”.

Never really looked and just realized how cluttered that apartment is.

I’m an atheist and even I think the dude’s a twat who enjoys the smell of his own farts.

It’s ridiculous how obsolete US utility companies are, especially water companies that often require you to show up to their office in person to activate service or set up automatic payments (You want a voided paper check? I don’t even have checks for my account. What’s wrong with a debit card?).

And they go crazy with their estimated bills. I worked an IT job where I’d fly to some city in the US for a week of work, fly home on Friday, do laundry and submit expense reports, and do it all again the next week. Was pretty much never home. Got a water bill for $300+, and they wanted to try and argue with me that the bill was correct. They suggested maybe I had a leak somewhere, as if a leak that resulted in a $300+ bill wouldn’t have been causing some blatantly obvious issues that I would have seen.

American Exceptionalism.

Fingers crossed that’s just a stock image because that wardrobe is very depressingly beige.
