RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on [email protected]
  5. Keep it clean and SFW

Does anyone else find waiting physically exhausting? (slrpnk.net)

I find waiting for things physically exhausting. Waiting in lines, waiting sitting in a room, waiting on friends to decide what they want to eat, walking really slowly with an elderly relative: I find it all physically exhausting even though very little physical energy is required.

tbf those lines are because the bottleneck point is the number of cashiers and/or the process of preparing the food, as opposed to the supply of food itself

i am aware... but how is that anymore excusable?

we also have food and housing technically too but we have one of the worst food access issues within OECD and if you count people living in cars, the highest homeless rate.

You're asking how it's more excusable to have an ample supply of food with slight waits for purchasing/preparation than not having enough food for everyone?

I am mocking the regime and their propaganda that has no logical consistency.
