    I was flying a couple of weeks ago and the dude across the aisle from me was wearing a mask and then took it off to eat and put it back on after

    Looks just as stupid now as it did during the pandemic

    for the thousandth time, yes he is. Yes, we have to accept FF is this stupid. He has warned us repeatedly and has shown us in so many ways it cannot be counted. He has no shame about it, and is thinking of making himself stupider.

    Stupid is FF's preferred lifestyle. We need to accept this and not expect anything more from him. I am not saying not to have fun kicking him, but he is this stupid and nothing more can be expected from him.

    I've started my kids swimming lessons, and one of the rules is that kids who aren't toilet trained must wear swim nappies.

    Despite not being waterproof, they still contain faeces for a reasonable length of time because things that can let one thing through (say water or air through a filter) are still capable of stopping larger particles. :async:

    If they're not toilet trained, you keep them the fuck out of public pools.

    at least he finally acknowledges the mask is to keep his germs from being exhaled rather than those of others being inhaled... inadvertent as it may be, it's still progress

    Buy the generic baggie shit on the bottom row. It tastes exactly the same.
    Better yet, quit cereal. It was invented by a madman.

    If you want to decide who is and isn't allowed in a pool, buy your own fucking pool and stop telling people what to do with stuff that is theirs and not yours.

    You didn't pay for the pool, you paid to be allowed to use a pool that belongs to someone else. It's not your pool, and you have little to no decision-making authority regarding said pool.

    Don't like how that works? Talk to the people who own the pool and see if they think your ideas about how the pool should be have merit. They might agree with you, they might tell you to fuck off and stop telling them what to do with their shit. Could go either way. If you insist on being Supreme Emperor of the Pool, you can buy your own fucking pool like I suggested earlier.

    :rolleyes:

    Regardless of who owns it, you are a selfish scumbag piece of shit for bringing infectious human waste into a pool that isn't yours, and it says a lot about your character that you refuse to do the right thing unless you're forced.

    Its long been intuitively understood that public pools and water parks are people-soup, which is why they use enough chlorine to burn your eyes, and bleach your hair.

    The last truly great Raisin Bran type cereal, and arguably the best cereal ever. How I miss it.

    I feel like I have to drop this single most obvious fact about being trans in the history of ever FAR too often.

    IF it were possible for some casual interaction, like reading a storybook on knowing a trans person exists or seeing a trans character in a cartoon could POSSIBLY make a cis person trans, or think they were trans, then why does no one ever suggest it works the other way 'round?

    I grew up reading the fuck out of manly-man Robert A. Fucking Heinlein and yet...here I am!

    Various assholes have been trying to deliberately manipulate gender identity (overtly, not just the usual enforced social norms) for a goddamn century, using every method from electroshock to lobotomies to doing a sex change on a fucking infant and lying to them their whole short life...

    And they have never produced ONE example of successfully changing anyone's gender identity in either direction.

    I mean I KNOW reactionaries are massive fucking idiots but still.

    How many toilet trained kids do you think the swimming centre expects to have in the classes explicitly intended for 6 month olds?
