Lol I’m not insecure

Sure bud.

Sure bud. That’s why you keep trying to justify to us why you’re not getting ripped off when you are.

I might as well be talking to a heroin addict. They don’t think they’re getting ripped off, either.

I’ve sold drugs to people like you before, and it’s always sad when you don’t realize how much money I’m making off of your ignorance.

If you don’t want to understand something, then you won’t understand it.

I don’t expect more from you.

I’m referring to surrendering the lost territories.

If you’re insecure about getting taken for a ride, that’s on you. There’s no argument you can make to change the fact that you are being fleeced when you buy alcohol at bars. Drug addicts say the same things when they are paying 500%+ markup on their drugs. “It’s worth it to them.”

Keep going to bat for the people ripping you off. It’s what’s expected of you.

Hey man, if you have more money than sense that’s your problem.

You don’t have to go around replying to everything I post trying to explain why you like getting ripped off.

The profit margins for the alcohol you buy at bars is significantly higher than alcohol you buy in stores. You’re getting ripped off, and in typical useful idiot fashion, you need to figure out some way to avoid acknowledging it.

Ask the people here trying to justify why they go to bars.

100%. Being on my computer so much, I can always appreciate simply being out in nature.

Kind of ironic, because while I’m doing that everyone around me is on their phones.

If you’re not living a boring life, then you should naturally come across plenty of different people with plenty of different opportunities to make connections.

“Meeting people at the grocery store” is a lazy and ignorant excuse to justify going to bars. If you think those are your only two options, then you’re the problem and I pity anyone who gets caught in your web.

🤮

I’m mostly referring to liquor because it’s the most economical way to get drunk.

My local Walmart has a decent selection of beers, but I’ve been to HEBs that have entire sections devoted to craft beers. It may depend on the grocery store in question.

You can still get a better selection at a cheaper price at liquor stores than bars.

They don’t even want to talk about the fediverse, because they know how much of a threat it is to their power structure.

Also don’t forget that since the Citizen’s United supreme court decision, oligarchs are able to funnel as much money into election campaigns as possible.

It’s not even democracy when people votes can be bought.

Every rich person deserves a painful death. Let’s start with the billionaires and work our way down.

Guillotines are too quick.

I hope some heroes torture these oligarchs to death so they can at least experience a fraction of the pain and suffering they’re causing billions of others.

Is one degree really small?

Degrees are a manmade concept. Why do you think 1 degree is small?

I’d probably call them lost or insecure.

Most people with behaviors like that do it as a defense mechanism.

I’m experiencing the exact opposite, personally.

My neighbors have been extremely kind and generous, on a level that couldn’t even be dreamed of in the city.

They’ve literally helped me cut my grass on several occasions out of pure kindness because they have a riding mower and I have a push one. And that’s just one family.

My car has also never been broken into after years of living here. In the city, all of my friends’ cars have been broken into.

Doesn’t surprise me that the main thing city people complain about is they need more places to spend their money.

Bar culture is a waste of money anyways.

You can get more variety at a cheaper price from grocery stores. It doesn’t make sense to pay more money to drink at a bar with people who you’re not close enough to visit each other’s homes.

Anyone who spends $7 on a shot when an entire bottle costs $12 isn’t using their brain.
