Real talk: retail workers constantly bitching about that song have ACTUALLY REDUCED my enthusiasm for improving their general plight.
I thought they were chronically underpaid, underinsured, overworked, subjected to abuse...but nah, it turns out that the worst thing they have to put up with is some fucking Christmas song playing a few more times than they'd like to hear it.
That's y'all's fucking Vietnam? Well, then, I guess capitalism doesn't need to be fixed. False alarm. Go fuck yourselves.
EDIT: I'm fucking joking. No, y'all, people bitching about Mariah didn't actually convince me that trickle-down economics is actually a good idea. Jesus.
They are all of these things but nobody cares, and the boss will fire you if you joke with customers about it.
Joking about Mariah Carey being shit ain't getting anyone fired. Not even Mariah Carey's assistant ... Probably
That's a fair point. I was 99.9 percent joking, anyway. People seem to be unfamiliar with dark humor, lately.
I think it's the fact that people will openly write the exact same words as you do, and they won't be joking. It won't be satire. And there is no way to tell the difference even if they did look at your username - it just means "Anonymous"
Edit: See Poes Law. Guess I'm not first person to think about it.
