It’s an old meme

No Country for Corporate Memphis
Anyone ever marvel at how, especially boomers, think they are friends with people at a grocery store but are also one boomer crashout from costing that person their job? Like millennial isolation is a thing but boomers take their own isolation from community into a new level by coercing it out of a poor gas station clerk functioning on five hours of sleep.
:anton-wtf:
Yes, hold up the line and strike up conversation with the burnt out worker who just wants to go home but is payed to have to be nice to you.
If I sense I can get that smirk from one or two silly things I’m trying it. Idfc that you’re burnt.
Ah, I suppose there’s no harm if the intention is to brighten their day
“If there’s no price tag does that mean it’s free?” Definitely could be harming lol
immediate horrific flashbacks to working retail
I’m funnier than that
i already wanted to murder all the customers this would push me over the edge
Nothing makes a normal person think “i’ll kill an old lady, i’ll fuckin DO it” like watching someone take a bunch of carefully folded towels and blankets or whatever and literally throw them draping them over the shelves they’re on and leave like it’s not her problem
Ever lose a friend because of a coin flip?
Pokemon TCG be like
Yugioh be like
they don’t know I’m the original card game determined by a coin flip
Depends a lot on the job but I have a lot of regulars at my work and friendly chatter with them is actually quite nice
The image is a cartoon version of a scene in the movie “No Country For Old Men” where a hitman flips a coin to kill a gas station clerk.
oh thank you i didn’t get that even with someone posting the actual scene

I don’t think that’s really the point…
I’m pretty unlikely to call any of them my friend anytime soon, true

Yea I know it’s about mega corps wanting you to be friendly and make them more money and shit, it just seemed tangentially related enough to comment and I thought I could inject a little bit of positivity
Look at this foold trying to be optimistic
I also worked at a bar, and you are right, what I was hinting at is the No Country for Old Men used for this purpose, if you don’t know why that’s retarded, watch the movie, it’s awesom.
A stranger is just a friend-o you haven’t met yet!
Do not the service worker
I was behind a guy doing this at the lunch place and I have rarely despised a stranger more
“what do you think the burger would taste like with mayonnaise? you’ll never guess what I want to order to drink… please look at this photo of a truck I took recently”
(he ordered spezi (half coke half fanta) like it was something exotic and the cashier lady should be a little impressed that he’d been to Germany once)
my breathing and zoning out skills always save the day
(he ordered spezi (half coke half fanta) like it was something exotic
He’s a fool, only good combo mix is the orange fanta mixed with the red fanta.
My gf got all 😠 about how the librarian in this small town barely talks to her and im just like. What is happening to you, her job is to give you books and shit not talk like your friend???
Also isn’t the whole point of a library not to make lots of noise?
Yeah the only thing I expect a librarian to say is “shhhhhh”
Boomerization
Why
you might make a new friend
“What business is it of yours where I’m from, friendo?”
