remember back when you were like nine and would get on the internet and just. do the most simple things? You’d Google “Mario Kart short cuts” or log into Neopets. Maybe play some flash games on the Barbie website. Maybe get a little crazy and send your friends a good old email and load it with some smileys from Smiley Centrals. Go hog wild and download some more toolbars for internet explorer, while you’re at it. The internet was such a vastly different place and sometimes I miss it.
Now, by fake I mean: the alligator wasn’t real, it was put there as a prank by some Youtubers, to record people’s reactions. So the guy a) survived, and b) reacted as he would (AKA: fought a fucking alligator to save his friend) had it been real, because neither of them knew it wasn’t.
To quote Snopes: It appears that the “elbow drop” move was actually a real, good-faith, and quite courageous response to an uncomfortably realistic and relatively low-effort prank
Ok but like…. that still doesn’t change the fact that this absolute legend genuinely thought an alligator was about to eat his friend and he ELBOW DROPPED the fucking thing to save him!!!! That’s some true ass friendship right there
Me: *gets paid on Friday* *broke by Tuesday* *survives off of $8 for two weeks*
That’s not being an adult. That’s being an irresponsible child. Like… That’s literally the opposite of being an adult.
who the hell asked you?
this aint no group discussion sweetheart. this is a college sophomore (60K /year tuition) working two jobs (that pay over minimum wage), whilst supporting his damn self (and family back home), talking about his situation on HIS post!
and ill be damned if some dusty, bottled neck, “what would a kinkajou do” looking white, tell me that Im not an adult because of the system, that wasn’t built to benefit me nor my family, forced me into countless unfavorable financial positions.
Child my bills are paid, my mothers bills are paid, I got clothes on my back and food in my stomach (all of which i paid for).
so take that classist bullshit else where and think twice before condescendingly delving into other peoples business.
I never should’ve taught my parrot how to laugh it’s given him far too much power
do you know how embarrassing it is to have a pet that can laugh at you? I dropped my ice cream and wailed in despair and my parrot zoomed out of nowhere JUST so he could stand on the couch and laugh at me. I’m being called a dumb bitch in my own home by my OWN SON.
