  2. Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
  3. You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
  4. Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
  5. Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.

No but I worked at a supermarket deli when I was younger and we had a customer walk up and take one of those decorative fake rubber grapes off the vine and pop it in his mouth.

He visibly made a face but quickly tried to conceal it and walk away with what was left of his pride.

From the pilot episode of The Orville:

Captain Mercer: “Can I have one of these mints?” puts one in his mouth

Admiral Halsey: “Those are marbles.”

Mercer: spits it across the room

Man, I enjoyed The Orville far more than I thought I would.

If people want to waste their drastically over priced food I'll happily finish that shit. If people want to look at me weird for both saving myself money and stopping perfectly good food from being put in the bin, that's on them, they are the idiots from where I'm standing!
