Kids are totally that enlightened at age ten, and on their own of course, who ever heard of kids who get their opinions from their parents? Of course we've all met kids who spoke so eloquently and were so well-informed, and we all know they curse like that right guys? Right?

it's dumb because 'oh, that's stupid' is exactly how a normal kid would react to hearing internet nerds are angry ghostbusters have vaginas now, but for some reason these lovely stories always have to have the Woke Baby deliver a stunning monologue on the topic.

I think the other one was a worker at a store saw someone looking at the Terrible Nerd poo poo section, they voiced an interest in Supergirl, and the worker managed to annoy the poor woman into admitting she was a secret gay all along. The phrase "little baby gay" was used and my eyes rolled so hard they fell out of my head and that's why I'm blind now.

I don't know if this one has been posted here before.quote:So I heard this story second-hand, many years ago, but the gist was that a friend of a friend lived in what was generally considered a bad neighborhood, because he was a super poor college student and it was what he could afford. He didn’t have any furniture, he just slept on a blanket on the floor and had a milk crate for a chair and like an old wire spool as a table. No TV, nothing in the fridge, no microwave, basically just bare walls and a roof to keep the weather off. So one day he comes home, and there’s a man in his apartment, just standing there, with this look of utter amazement and horror on his face, and he turns to the guy who’s just entered and says, “This your place? ‘cause I broke in to rob you, but poo poo, man, you ain’t got nothin’. Wait here, I’m’a be right back.” And the burglar left, leaving a puzzled college student alone in his empty apartment. But sure enough, the burglar came back a while later, and brought some friends, and they delivered a table, a couple of chairs, and a small TV. “I think I got you a bed, too, but that might take a couple days.”

Re: the supergirl one - this person obviously never flew before. Unless you're watching porn on your laptop, nobody is going to care what you are watching because they'll either be asleep or watching something themselves. I sat next to a guy on a long flight that watched Frozen three times in a row once. I thought it was a little weird, but who cares, especially enough to make a huge scene and almost get themselves arrested? In the ghostbusters one what the hell is the dancing Thor line about?

CROWS EVERYWHERE posted:I don't know if this one has been posted here before. So I heard this second-hand and many years ago...so it's probably bullshit and maybe I shouldn't even bother telling it. Well anyway here's the story *sits on toilet and shits out story* bean_shadow posted:To be fair, I cursed like a sailor around other kids when I was about nine or ten. Not around adults though. And never to my parents. Exactly. My dad would've cuffed me on the side of the head at the very least, but more likely grounded the poo poo out of me. With my friends, that was an age where we were discovering cursing and so it was cool and made us cool. I just don't understand why people feel the need to tell these obviously bullshit stories when it accomplishes nothing. Many of them are trying to seem enlightened and on the side of social justice but they just come off as lying douchebags who are desperate for someone to approve of them. life is killing me has a new favorite as of 15:44 on Jan 6, 2017 |

If a 10 year old says "Holy poo poo yea" to a parent they're going to get a "Don't swear!" lecture, not praise. And I'm sure someone will respond saying that their parent was cool and let them say gently caress when they were 6 or something but that ain't normal.

I'm 90% positive I've seen videos of little kids being asked what they think about various social justice issues and giving long winded answers, but full of stuttering 'and and and and i think that um its bad and and' kind of stuff, where its pretty clear they've been given an idea of what to say and then been filmed (ironically I can't find any examples now, so its probably its own variety of stdh which I'm remembering totally wrong).

Reminds me of when you start talking about IQ's and tons of people come in talking about how they were reading when they were ONE and talking full sentences at five months, honestly!

I hate videos like that where it's obviously filmed solely with the intention of "going viral", especially because you can get a kid to say pretty much anything. Some of her feelings about the clothes might be original and genuine but she was clearly being coached along and parroting what she knew her mom wanted to hear. It's just easy currently to have your video/post go "viral" if you have a woke toddler/preteen in it which is why you see/hear about them so much as opposed to the kids that are raised with "traditional values" or whatever.

Scrabblequote:I once played "nkru" ("a West African welcoming ceremony", plural "nkrua"), "xaab" ("a Mayan musical instrument"), "yipse" ("an archaic term for a stomach ailment"), "eowa" ("an exclamation of surprise"), "fidge" ("an exclamation of contempt"), "fidgeing" (analogous formation to "tut-tutting"), and several "variant spellings". My opponent tried to play "roarz" but I told her "no variant spellings that look like they were made up by advertisers in an attempt to appeal to disaffected youth." Teacher quote:Da_Nuke's social studies teacher. When he's teaching class... EVERYTHING HE SAYS, HE SAYS IT LIKE THIS, PEOPLE! And when describing the true story of a national hero, HIS ENTIRE! CLASSROOM! WAS PAYING! ATTENTION!!! Needless to say, his large-hamness and constant The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind Shout Outs were so amusing, he quickly became the entire generation's favorite teacher and friend forever (just to let you know, he's currently dating the hottest, most popular girl from two generations below!). Ham quote:Normally, This Troper is more painfully shy than anything. But there was a point when someone even more painfully shy and asocial that she kind of dislikes had stammered that she wanted to be roommates. Hopped up on a strange mix of distaste, anxiety, and inner optimism, this troper hammered on her door, told her "We have to get to know each other!" and proceeded to forcefully lecture her on things like rules (Lights out by midnight! I get up early! No loud music!) and her personal preferences (Dragons are awesome), complete with hand gestures and weird little aggressive head-jerks. She may have brought up Birds Are Dinosaurs, phyllogenically, and she may have said something derogative about fundamentalists. Would-be-roomate looked terrified, in retrospect, and withdrew the request. Crisis averted, thanks to a SURPRISE ATTACK... of HAM! Fitness quote:This troper's school fitness instructor Scott was an extreme example of this. He was exactly like Richard Simmons. And Monday, Wednesday and Fridays made the students take part in a ridiculous activity called Jump Jam where they had to dance like idiots to some extremely outdated music. He often showboated- in a most over-the-top manner. Then a group of the older students in the school put on a hammy showboating dance routine every breaktime by dancing to teen pop like Britney Spears, sometime it can be [[Utterly ridiculous and poorly done but at the same time hillarious So Bad Its Good]] but other times such as when they play anything from High School Musical it becomes [[So irritating, idiotic and just plain bad that it's just so painful and unbearable to watch So Bad Its Horrible]] The funniest one is when they danced to "I Like Big Butts" by Sir Mix A Lot. They were like the dancing hippos in Fantasia. Drama quote:This troper is a bit of a drama queen in real life, to the point where I overreact to things with loud exclamations of swear words. Usually at inappropriate times. Like wedding receptions. Weddings of family members, to be exact. To make things even better, I'm an actor, and am only rarely cast in a role that really requires hamminess. Naturally, when I got to be the Narrator / Mysterious Man in Into The Woods, I had the time of my life, doing things like dramatically echoing my own lines as the Mysterious Man ("You'd be lucky to trade her for a sack of BEANS! Beans! Beans! Beans...") and Giving the Audience A Dramatic Phoenix Wright-esque Pointer Finger as I bellowed "To be continued!" Ahhh, I wish I got those kinds of roles more often. Table quote:I once took a Shakespeare class over summer for my school (Mostly for going to London and Oxford for 10 days, but also because I genuinely liked Shakespeare) that had three professors. When we read King Lear, the oldest of the three, who sometimes seems to be a crotchety old man, read one of Lear's lines, he let it all out and nearly hit me with a table. He apologized later. (I also have had two other classes with him, and he does get hammy in those two.)

Fruit Smoothies posted:Lamebook usually isn't too bad now-a-days, but this is awful Something like this happened to me once actually. I don't quite remember if it was due to delays or whatever but my dad and I ended up being two of only about seven or eight passengers on-board for a flight that would normally hold at least 120. I don't know how believable the Metalica and the pilot's comments are but the crew definitely seemed more relaxed than usual and the attendants told us jokes and stories about working in the airline industry over the PA. It was pretty rad honestly.

You used to get these kind of flights every now and then for planes returning back to their home airport. I imagine they're really rare these days since airlines almost always overbook, not to mention fuel prices don't make it economical.
