Don, Jr.: My dad put these fries in the box himself! hurr durr

[-] Hobbes_Dent@lemmy.world 19 points 3 hours ago

Are they celebrating bring your kid to work day?

[-] xorollo@leminal.space 32 points 5 hours ago

This is so weird. Why is the dude displaying his fries like he's proud of them?

[-] lemmydividebyzero@reddthat.com 3 points 13 minutes ago

Come on! Let the kiddo feel proud!!!111

[-] SkyeStarfall@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 50 minutes ago

You gotta emphasize how normal and approachable you are. A true one of the people

[-] AJ1@lemmy.ca 14 points 4 hours ago

what, are you saying that a douchebag isn't allowed to be proud of his fries? I'm sorry, I thought this was America

I wanted to buy a Cybertruck (don't judge me, my kid loves it). We also love McDonald's.

I no longer want anything Tesla or even want to eat at McDonald's anymore.

Your kids love it because it looks like something they could have drawn themselves.

[-] almar_quigley@lemmy.world 13 points 4 hours ago

Why would you want to buy a vehicle just because your kid likes it?

[-] jaschen@lemm.ee 3 points 45 minutes ago

My life revolves around my kid. So ya. If it makes him happy to be in a car he loves and it fits the families needs, then why wouldn't I?

[-] WhiteOakBayou@lemmy.world 4 points 2 hours ago

If he has to get a vehicle why not one his kid likes? What vehicle choice criteria do you find acceptable?

[-] SkyeStarfall@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 49 minutes ago* (last edited 49 minutes ago)

Probably utility and price?

[-] ayyy@sh.itjust.works 3 points 57 minutes ago

Safety, efficiency, and price.

Musk being best buds with the President of the USA is legit friggin' scary, speaking as a foreigner.

Then you remember that Trump, and it becomes terrifying.

then I remember that trump... what? I'm also "a foreigner" (meaning I don't live in the shithole known as the US), but that's an incomplete sentence

[-] Baguette@lemm.ee 6 points 1 hour ago

Probably meant that's, or at least I read it that way

[-] CosmoNova@lemmy.world 97 points 7 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago)

This reminds me of so many comments from Americans saying how embarrassing Biden is as a president and that no one takes 🇺🇸'Murica🦅 seriously anymore under the Democrats. It was weird to read as a foreigner because I loosely remember what Trump was like. And now here we are again. Hope Americans are proud.

[-] vividspecter@lemm.ee 9 points 1 hour ago

It's always projection with conservatives.

What is actually embarrassing is that the US elected Reagan, twice, then G.W Bush, twice, and now Donald Trump, twice.

As the great scholar Bush once said:

There's an old saying in Tennessee — I know it's in Texas, probably in Tennessee — that says, fool me once, shame on — shame on you. Fool me — you can't get fooled again

[-] ME5SENGER_24@lemmy.world 12 points 3 hours ago

The first time I flew out of the US after Trump became president I was so embarrassed of being American because of all the questions about his crazy ass. When I landed back in the US and saw his portrait on the wall in the airport, I stared at it perplexingly trying to understand what the fuck his stupid face was doing there….then it hit me that it’s there cause he was the president. Trump is a laughing stock and him at the helm of the US makes all Americans laughing stock for allowing this country to elect an orange makeup-caked, lying, shyster.

So glad we get to do it again!!

[-] RinseDrizzle@midwest.social 41 points 7 hours ago

Nahhh... we're pretty fucking disappointed... Least everyone I know with half a brain.

[-] WaxiestSteam69@lemmy.world 25 points 6 hours ago* (last edited 6 hours ago)

I wish I knew someone who was disappointed. The only two people in my life that aren't Trumpers are my daughter and her fiance. Everyone else thinks that gas will get back to $1/gallon and food prices will return to pre Covid levels on Jan 21.

Time to start beating your wife, she’s actively asking for it. If she’s your ex make sure to remind her that project 2025 wants to make her existence illegal.

[-] SLVRDRGN@lemmy.world 11 points 4 hours ago* (last edited 4 hours ago)

I think it's revealing that apparently as long as gas and eggs are okay, the country falling completely apart is secondary (to the voting majority).

Sheeeesh, sorry to hear you're living deep in the red. Proud of my state for being a spot of blue in a sea of red, but hot damn that election map was bleak.

It's so wild how absolutely bonkers the political climate has become just in my lifetime. There was some real optimism when I got to vote for Obama as an 18 year old. Would've never seen all this coming...

[-] ayyy@sh.itjust.works 2 points 44 minutes ago

The thing is we had Obama and dem control of the legislature and we still didn’t get universal healthcare, or even basic shit like minimum wage indexed to inflation. It’s no wonder low-information voters think democrats suck at “the economy”.

[-] leadore@lemmy.world 6 points 2 hours ago

Unfortunately, all this is pretty much a backlash to that event.

Welcome to Walmart. I love you.

[-] irish_link@lemmy.world 3 points 3 hours ago

I gave you an upvote because it is on point. I want to down vote you because I don't want to live on that planet and its looking more and more like we will be that planet.
