I believe you'd get you'd get your ass kicked for saying something like that, man.

Start your own business then...

Have you considered just being born rich?

Why don't you mind yours and let them enjoy their retirement rather than taking on unnecessary debt and awful hours to compete in a market designed to benefit megacorps over small businesses regardless of all the empty rhetoric from both parties?

Lordy, say one thing that doesn't toe the line, and people get uppity real fast.

Maybe it's less a line to be toed and more your utter tonedeafness. Also, "uppity" is perhaps not the best word choice since that's usually used as a racist and/or classist dog whistle..

On a lighter note, how do you make your coffee?

And following up on that tangent, how do you like your coffee?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I like my coffee like I like my women: COVERED IN BEES!

Eddie Izzard paraphrase aside, I'm not fancy about it. I like Usain Bolt coffee: black, strong and (near-) instant 😉

You?

French Press. Trying some new beans from Costco called Greenberry's. Didn't realize the front had a zipper and cut the whole damn top off, so feeling like a moron (good start to Monday).

Been cutting myself from any sort of dairy, since been adding a splash of oatmilk in it, and it's pretty much perfect.

We sometimes add a piece of cinnamon to the grinder to get it a little extra flavor sometimes. It's actually really nice on occasion - gets to be a little much when you do it too often though.

Or, you know, enjoy retirement.

Maybe you want to work your ass off until you die. Not everyone does.
