DUDE i just LOVE the hustle and bustle of the big city, it’s so DYNAMIC and makes me feel like i’m in one of my favorite TV SHOWS. you should totally come on down to my studio apartment, it’s got EXPOSED RED BRICK walls and everything, we can crack open a nice hoppy ipa or three and get crazy watching some cartoons on adult swim! and dude, dude, DUDE, we have GOTTA go down to the barcade- listen here, right, it’s a BAR where us ADULTS who do ADULTING can go DRINK. BUT!!! it’s also an ARCADE like when we were kids, so we can play awesome VIDEO GAMES, without dumb kids bothering us. speaking of which megan and i have finally decided to tie the knot- literally -we’re both getting snipped tomorrow at the hospital, that way we can save money to spent more on ourselves and our FURBABIES. i’m fuckin JACKED man, i’m gonna SLAM this craft beer and pop open another one!!!
I'm offended by how inoffensive that bit is. 2/10 because it did capture the essence of places like Denver, Austin and other similar locales though.
Our pet wrecker is pretty funny because they've strawmaned posters on here into being trans city dwellers when our socioeconomic strata on hexbear is all over the place. But I forgot, leftism is only when you're trans and live in an urban area.
A farm down the street has "lets go Brandon" painted across their hay bales...
There were an insane number of homemade Trump signs in our area. Large ones! I'll have to see if I can find pictures of the "sign fight" two people were having on my commute.
It blows my mind that they root for a guy who has merch they can't afford after four years of him running the country
I’ve seen two “Trump Won” homemade signs on the drive to my parents place out in the sticks. One replaced a Trump 2020 sign
I've seen people edit the "2020" part to say anything from "2021" to "2022" and "2024".
My favorite is the 2021 sign. Extra crispy recipe delusional
Aside from the red brick flat this is like 65% of the people under 40 you run into on the north side of Chicago
just replace "exposed red brick walls" with "in-unit washer and dryer" and it's perfect
As someone who lives in a city with a FIRE economy where you're not really sure what you export other than human misery, this feels painfully accurate
Okay but like. I'd get snipped tomorrow if I could. My partner wouldn't need to use birth control anymore. I don't see a downside. Idk why anyone would make fun of that.
IPAs are bullshit though. Beer doesn't taste good and I'm tired of pretending that it does
they're nazis. they thinking not having kids is a form of suicide.

Because the default for h'wite people is making babies for the war machine.
Got myself one so my partner wouldn't have to use birth control. I felt bad for her having all sorts of gnarly side effects. If you have insurance that covers it, it should be <$100. Should be free doe.
Edit: IPA's are a young man's game. Used to love 'em, now I can't handle that shit.
I’m enjoying imagining this as a modern retelling of American Psycho about a downwardly mobile PMC failson in Denver instead of a high level corporate VP in NYC
Half of us here live in like the fucking boonies, what are they even on about?
Like anyone under 50 can afford an apartment in the city without like 6 roommates.
So the bed frame is bolted to the wall, twin mattress only. There's nine square feet in this corner if you want to do some yoga or whatever. $1200 and I need first and last month's rent along with a safety deposit.
Three. You'll share the bed in six-hour allotments. Having the bed already warm from other bodies is a perk!
This is so bleakly true. I live an hours drive from a major metro area, and rental/housing prices are insane. I make 25$ an hour and there literally isn't an apartment in the county that I could rent for myself that wouldn't leave me rent burdened. One of my coworkers pays ~50% in rent WITH low income housing assistance.
This is more accurate to check-mark PMC soyface libs than it is anyone here
Right-wingers stop mistaking leftists for liberals challenge (IMPOSSIBLE!)
I'd be friends with someone like this, they have himbo energy.
they have some of the good parts of an arcade, but also the bad parts of a bar. if their business model wasn't based on overpriced drinks they'd be awesome.
honestly what we oughta do is have a warehouse with a bunch of arcade machines. it's byob, there's a pile of straw in the corner with a dog sleeping on it.
I managed to find one in a surprisingly rural area, they still had like ten taps all reasonably priced and every thing but pinball was free. But it was when I was camping out of state so never been able to go back.
Any bar with a dog is instantly better.
I love arcades and I hate barcades. I think I just hate bars in general.
This reads like someone turned a golden retriever into a hipster. Which would probably still be a better sitcom than like half of the ones currently on TV.
Is this one of those things like "every leftist loves brutalism because they're ideologically required to do so" that very-online right-wingers do?
I don't drink, but I'd still like to be this imaginary straw millennial's friend and do all that stuff.
