Describing someone with cancer as a warrior. FFS does that mean the person who died didn't fight cancer hard enough to survive? They fought a "courageous battle" is the stupidest thing I've ever heard. As an aside, when you are looking for medical advice/support and someone chimes in they will pray for you. ๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿผโ€โ™€๏ธ If I could post a meme it would be the one of Jeebus looking over the shoulder of a surgeon asking him why he is removing the tumour he had put in there.

Great for that guy that he could afford $18.75 for a fleeting luxury item. He must be doing extremely well in this economy. He could have saved a lot of money and just gotten some Oreos.

What idiot pays 18.75 for a cookie?

A lot of immigrants coming to the USA in the late 19th and early 20th century weren't considered 'white.' [Never mind that the only "real" Americans wouldn't be considered white either but that's a discussion for another time.] Irish, Italian, Eastern Europeans -- especially if they were Jewish (aka my great-grandparents and grandparents) -- Mr. Fell, thank you for writing and being sweary. Keep up the good work.

Dude's cookie dealer is ripping him off. He should find his local Girl Scout troop for a better deal.

My mind is spinning with so many comments, instead I plan to laugh spontaneously most of the day. ( phrases that annoy: โ€œyouโ€™ve got thisโ€)

You be you, buddy ()))

Everything happens for a reason seems to be a Christian thing. (Maybe the same for other religions.) God's in control, so the things that happen are meant to be. What a crock.

Thank the Renaissance and later European painters for our persistent visualisation of Romans and Greeks as Northern European looking white folks usually depicted in Northern European dress no less. Also for Aryian Jesus, as depicted in His bathrobe in Justice Thomas' bathroom.

โ€œEverything happens for a reasonโ€ฆโ€

Well, yes it does. Usually because of assholes.

Asshole humans, asshole genes, asshole circumstances, asshole economics.

Itโ€™s as useful as pointing out: rain is wet.

"The intentions may begin honorably, but once in power, those revolutionaries inevitably become just as bad or worse than those they replaced. See: Most of history."

History has shown that the very people who want to fuck the establishment become the very establishment they wanted to fuck. Remember the Hippies? Or Young Americans for Freedom? Campus Crusade for Christ? Phyllis Housefly?

The one phrase I hear that is cringe worthy is "I'll have that sundae with Crushed Nuts." <---used to work a soda fountain.

Asking (i.e.) telling me to "reach out" to someone. Or some nuisance phone call telling me why they are "reaching out" to me.

โ€œMeet the New Bossโ€ should be the national anthem.

Any nation, any time.
