The government made a horrible mess due to a horrible mistake made while trying to clean up a horrible mess made by industry - which of course means that the government causes All the Problems, and industry is blameless. Right?

so much complaining about complaining

no it will not

Are you complaining about the complaining about complaining?

"take it or leave it" is just one choice surely?

feargal czukay (NickB), Friday, 14 August 2015 17:12 (eight years ago) link

one choice, two options

what is the phenomenon that this is railing against? do parents today give their kids menus?

Roberto Spiralli, Friday, 14 August 2015 17:18 (eight years ago) link

honestly i would be hurt and embarrassed if i were a kid and i found out that my mom was posting stuff like that about my eating habits

La Lechera, Friday, 14 August 2015 17:23 (eight years ago) link

i think it is railing against picky eaters?

More consumer showmanship

i find the self-congratulatory nature of so many of these memes so massively noxious. like, the only sensible response to any of them is "fuck the fuck off you conceited asshole".

more just "life is hard and i am tough" in a way that deflects the sentiment onto some imaginary person/phenomenon so the poster doesn't have to appear vulnerable.

idk how it's meant honestly, only that it seems unusually sour and mean for everyone involved
like hearing someone bitch mercilessly about a person who is sweet and intends no harm

I have to say looks better than most of what I was served as a kid, I'd be happy to choke down a few green beans for that spread.

nickn, Friday, 14 August 2015 21:21 (eight years ago) link

that's a corny meme but as a parent who has tried things otherwise I 100% endorse its contents

Trying to make separate food that the kid "likes" is a hole with no bottom

five six and (man alive), Saturday, 15 August 2015 02:11 (eight years ago) link

I mean, you know, to a point. We do try to some extent to eat things that K likes to begin with. Just gave up on having multiple options or making separate food.

five six and (man alive), Saturday, 15 August 2015 02:12 (eight years ago) link

I can't help but think there is some middle ground between never offering your child anything but the foods they like best, whether it is as a wholly separate meal made just for them or everyone at the table eating nothing but 100% kid-approved food, and telling your child "I don't care what you like; eat whatever I put on your plate or else go fuck yourself".

In our house that's called "yogurt and blueberries for dinner" but ymmv.

thank fucking christ for yogurt

this isn't a meme but I FUCKING HATE HATE HATE when people make up their own "hashtags" as if their lives are fucking "trending" like their fucking vacation or any stupid routine taking their kid to the park on a saturday

heeee I have some friends who definitely have a #brand (and sizable social media followings) who do that all the time. Since I knew most of them as physical beings before I knew their social media persona it doesn't bother me too much but I do rmde at it a little bit.

THere were some VERY funny jokes about this on the first episode of season 2 of "Bojack Horseman."

I have friends with children around 4-5 years old who will tag any social media pic of their child like #kidpocalypse or something and i just can't even. Also the people who do this with their dogs.

i have a friend who does "me & my girl" hastags with his wife and does image macros using the same thing and 9000000 other hashtags and he is the worst of all humans

a cowoker has a hashtag "like (nickname) eats" for the bajillion food pics he posts
also the worst

difficult-difficult lemon-difficult (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 18 August 2015 18:44 (eight years ago) link

When people do this for weddings, gaaahhhhhhhhhhh!

I have a friend who, every time she posts a picture of her daughter, the hashtag is "#loveher." Her son's hashtags are "#babylove" or "#babycrush" and I just wanna vomit and die.

kate78, Tuesday, 18 August 2015 18:46 (eight years ago) link

i know some ppl who end every endless string of hash tags with #hashtagsarestupid

La Lechera, Tuesday, 18 August 2015 18:47 (eight years ago) link

the only good way to use hashtags at this point is ironically m/l

Nhex, Tuesday, 18 August 2015 18:58 (eight years ago) link

one of my husband's relatives friended me on facebook after our wedding and everything she posts is illegible to me because of the hashtags. that are sometimes randomly in all caps. she is also very conventionally beautiful and a burgeoning media personality, i believe, so maybe these are legit hashtags? like she's just speaking the language of fame? i would never hide her posts; they are mesmerizing and incomprehensible.
