I use it for getting comic strips, news and events. Funny thing I use it alongside Nitter to also get updates on local accounts, such as government, nearby events, etc.
TL;DR: What state or city of your country gets the most satirical love / bullied?
I previously posted a question regarding the Alabama of other countries (apologies to those that did not enjoyed it). However, while reading the comments I discovered that Acre in Brazil doesn't exist and if it does it is filled with 🦕.
I immediately thought of Tlaxcala (Mexico), which is a hoax, "Tlaxcala son las papás" (parents are Tlaxcala). This is very likely related to the fact that is the smallest state by a far margin, you even need a 🔎 to find it.
So..., I wanted to know what state or city of your country gets the most satirical love / bullied?
Here in Mexico is very common for employers to ask us to "ponernos la camiseta" (put on the team jersey). I believe this has football connotations, but I thinks it means the same as taking one for the team. It is mostly used when the employer, manager, sr manager, etc. requests us to do more than we are paid for, e.g. to work longer hours, work on weekends, take on two people jobs, etc.
Thanks!! Gotta read it later on desktop, for some reason the link breaks the app I'm using
Hi everybody, my girlfriend showed me a Tiktok about manga authors adding unnecessary incest plotlines to their works and I thought immediately "They are from Monterrey" (we are from Mexico).
I remembered that the States have a similar joke about Alabama and I started wondering if other countries also have a state or city associated with people who are, for some unknown reason, attrated to their cousins.
Here in Mexico there even is a kind of saying for these people «A la prima se le arrima».
There was this guy I met at the dog park who talked nicely to everybody, especially to the ladies. He would be the kind to always greet you, offered to share his snacks. He seemed to always be at the center of the conversation.
He tended to orbit around my now gf and for a long time he forcefully sticked with us, all good there at the beginning. But as soon as I started going out with her his behavior changed. Instead of being a direct ass to me he tried to monopolize my girlfriend's attention, being overly attentive, stomping over me when I was talking, always trying to dominate the conversation.
Now, his true color started to show when I confronted him when he was trying to impose his lifestyle on others.
He attempted to get a mutual friend to drink with him, which is by no means bad, the problem was than this mutual friend was a recorying alcoholic.
He tried to coherse her by using social pressure, saying that you should enjoy (which is true, but he doesn't get a say in how anyone else "enjoy" THEIR LIVES), but I standed against it. The few times we drank together I was able to keep her from overdrinking, sooooo he started to invite her without acquaitances.
Long story short:
- He got our mutual friund hooked again to the point of losing her job.
- I untintentionally got the best of him, such as "women are less value than the historical sites they destroy in feminist rallies" and regarding his own girlfriend who doesn't want to have kids "she is to young to know that". He once asked this out of nowhere "how old do you think they are?", whes referring to two teenagers who were clearly 15 at best.
- It turns out that majority of the dog owners dislike this guy. But, no one ever said anything because we all thought he was well liked in the cammunity.
