I think being pissed at someone close to you stealing your shit is a universally accepted reason to be fucking angry.
Yeah, I understood the anger. My retarded brain just thought the phrase "He took my Manga, he should die" was a funny statement.

My job is funny all the time, dude. My manager called his ex-wife a bitch because she showed his kids Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings trilogy lol
 
Also, just because now we've been tracking it at the store for funsies, women are just as, if not more porn sick than the men. I'm pretty sure most women 12-35 just read smut exclusively.
Sorry, but men will always hold first place for porn brainrot. Anyone who says otherwise is naive or delusional. Not for lack of trying, mind you. There are women who try to reach that level of degeneracy, but men will always have them beat in both numbers and in horrifying subject matter.
 
There is a community called "Living Mas" for Taco Bell fans. (Website). Here are some posts from the subreddit.

Everything you need to know about tying the knot at Taco Bell
One of the most memorable days of your life should be your wedding day. Kind of like how the most unforgettable memories you ever had were those that involved Taco Bell. So why not put the two together and have a Taco Bell wedding? If you have fond memories of date nights at Taco Bell and sharing dreams of your next 40+ years with that certain someone. If nothing is more romantic than sharing a Baja Blast with two straws as you gaze into each other’s eyes. If the “Marry Me” sauce packet is your idea of the perfect love letter and gives you all the feels. Or if you just can’t imagine sharing the bliss of wedding bells without Taco Bell, then it’s time to make it official with your very own Taco Bell wedding inside the chapel at our Las Vegas Taco Bell Cantina restaurant.

We all have heard about "cheap plastic junk". Now get ready for expensive microplastic junk!

oh come on
COME ON
we all know we're looking at money laundering here, seriously people go a bit nuts over brands but i refuse to believe someone bought this with legitimate desire to own it beyond it being a way to move money around, and maybe, at most, some 'eccentric' curiosity in a frame somewhere
 
Most notoriously this one bitch as of late who put a literal painting frame on her monitor, painted and colored her PC elements and fit it all into a vintage wooden, cramped-ass desk.
Aww man, I have always wanted to do this with an old secretary desk. The type that has the fold down front and have it all hidden inside. Once I had my computer desk in a closet, then I could close the door and forget the modern day exists.

In my rampant consumerism, I actually got one of these desks recently from an estate sale, 1950s one so not very ornate, but nice wood. I keep all my watch repair hobby stuff in it, nice and tucked away, close it up and dust/kids can't get into it. Even fits a stereo microscope for fiddling with the small stuff.

Overall: Yes, men win.

Right Now (in my own experiences at the register): The guys who are buying the smut are old guys and lesbians that are buying old Playboys and not making eye contact. The young women get bitchy the moment they see the "Parental Advisory" sticker on their young adult novel. The women also hoot and holler the minute they see the Giant Microbes plush Uterus. I watched a squad of 3 women and a dad once, where all 3 of the women wouldn't shut up about the plush uterus and kept elbowing dad asking if "he saw it/knew what it was hahahehe" then laughed about how he would probably like the Fart book at the register instead.

It's not really a contest tbh. I can only tell stories based off of the customer watching/interacting I do and have done.

In general, there's far too much spicy stuff nowadays, interwoven into entertainment.

Coming to your kidney soon!

But what kind of smut? hentai where the impossible-big-booba girl has sex with 7 dudes at the same time or yaoi shit where's there's no women at all and they get off by proxy?

Dude looks mexican which makes this very ironic since taco bell was created by the grongoest of gringos basically taking mexican food and making a mcdonalds clone with it, so this vato is celebrating the stealing of his culture turned into consumerist shit.

Pottery.
Well at least he's getting paid.

This reads like a parody of cyberpunk which is itself a parody of corporate culture.

We've gone full cycle.

Do you think the bimbo trophy wife of a billionaire is smart? or that she thinks $63k is too much money?

One thing I'll never forgive trend chasing faggots for doing is making cheap shit expensive by way of memeing it into fashion
From raising the price of old secondhand clothing/tech/furniture, to convincing the public that poor and busy people food is trendy, purely because of their obsession with broadcasting their life and aesthetic to everyone

We live in a world where a perfectly average cup of instant noodles can cost 5 dollars and that's just bullshit
 
this is a glimpse into the neo-feudal future. These people are already behaving like serfs or peasants to their corporate overlord.
I Kinda see it more as just a funny/weird novelty if anything but also somewhat cursed visually because it's just the logo everywhere.

Is it really that "neo-feudal serfy" if they're using the actually colored taco bell logo style the corpos that own taco bell have abandoned? Reminder Taco bell now looks like THIS.

as does every other fast food place that gets built or has some "remodeling" done the last like 5-7 years or so. White stencil logo, fake brick and fake wood paneling, minimalist concrete cube. If it was only one company doing this it'd be fine but it's every company now. they look like decent "buildings" but they don't look like a place for food, more like a fucking bank or something. The banks have always looked like this on the exterior so now it's just interchangeable I guess in case they close down, but it's missing something in return.

Taco bell before the food bank-ification for reference, though everyone's seen them before.

My point is even though it 100% fits in this thread, it seems kind of harmless in comparison to some other shit in here. This is like the people that keep a weird amount of colonel sanders statues. Coincidentally the same megacorp owns both taco bell and KFC. that's always been a fun little nightmare trivia unless that's changed and I missed it.

KFC seems to have always had some degree of freedom (at least in their marketing department) so even though the chicken has apperently gone to shit since everyones now going to the christian company owned fast food chicken place, you end up with funny and cool/weird shit like the 10,000 dollar colonel sanders wifi signal blocking tent existing.

No I would not pay 10,000 for this even if I had the money. Some people did though, and they may or may not fall into consoomer territory. It's either that or they're suspiciously wealthy shitposters.
 
They turned a nu McDonalds building in my area into a cellular store and you literally cant tell
Haven't had something like that happen but recently a burger king near me that was a larger one which had already gone through the "process" a few years ago randomly got ripped apart and torn down completely for another "remodeling" in a way that leaves none of the original building from before. Now it's a tiny claustrophobic concrete cube burger king on a large empty plot of land. I don't know if t's a tax thing or a demoralization thing but it's fucking weird. Haven't seen fucking anyone go in there after they reopened yet. I check whenever I pass it.

I love how women act like reading is some intellectual activity when this scene describes 95% of bookstores nowadays. Only thing missing is a bunch of books on witchcraft.

Dating myself but using the book tag on stumble upon wasn't interesting books or libraries but like 95% quotes on picture (usually of an attractive women) about how great you are for reading.

Don't get me wrong. Reading is great but so much of "reading culture" is just buying adornments of how great you are for reading basic slop.

reading can be intellectual if you read intellectual things, the same shit you find on fanfiction dot net doesn't exactly become any more highbrow when it's in a paperback cover

still, i must admit, it's more mentally healthy and intellectually stimulating than a lot of more mindless hobbies like scrolling tiktok all day

It might have been changed to drive thru or pickup only. That seems to be a trend, at least in my area.
