This is a class conflict, not a merely a generational conflict. I'm old as fuck and I will sharpen the blade.

That file looks a little dull, bro. Here, let's see if I have a better one.

They're saying the Epstein files are extra sharp.

Is that why Trump's hand was all fucked up? Paper cuts!

Might have been decent strapping but the palletization is garbage and that thing should be transported in the safe position, not the armed position.

I am not happy for those workers.

[–] Eheran@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago

I don't think that is strapping, that is just decoration. They used pallets as a base for easier (dis)assembly.

[–] wheezy@lemmy.ml 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Pretty certain this isn't actually a functional one. The blade is likely blunt and screwed/bolted in place. I mean I could be wrong. I just think decorative ones for for festivals or amusement parks are the main function they serve today. Sadly.

Sorry. I didn't mean to ruin it. I actually felt myself in your comment. Focused on a reality you wished existed and then went full autism critizing it. Sorry that's not an insult. It's a self reflection.

[–] rc__buggy@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 months ago

Oh it's cool, I'm just playing around. No harm done.

"Let them eat avocado toasts!"

Said the boomer walking to the guillotine.

[–] Dionysus@leminal.space 18 points 3 months ago

Not just millennials.

[–] Una@europe.pub 15 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Both? (I am genz, I want both)

[–] toeblast96@sh.itjust.works 6 points 3 months ago

at once, in fact

avo toast instead of popcorn

[–] Formfiller@lemmy.world 13 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

To be fair I do want the avocado toast as well

[–] WanderWisley@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago

Brunch guillotine sponsored by avocados from Mexico.

Why would I want to impose painless death?

Woodchippers are ubiquitous. Just spray these facists into a field.

The way you would execute people reflects more on you than on the people you would execute

[–] jollyrogue@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 months ago

Indeed. Wood chippers roll out!

[–] HootinNHollerin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 3 months ago

Set up avocado toast food truck at the chopping

[–] MuskyMelon@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago

I want the heads of fascists to roll while I eat avocado toast with smoked salmon

[–] InvalidName2@lemmy.zip 6 points 3 months ago (3 children)

I'm like super out of touch. Is this "avocado toast" a thing MILLENIALS strive to eat on the regular?

[–] Gustephan@lemmy.world 8 points 3 months ago

Avocado toast is one of the many things disingenuous conservative media has used to blame millennials for the economic situation we grew up in. "They wouldn't be in such poor financial situation if they stopped paying $15 for avocado toast at brunch every day"

That being said... avocado toast rocks and that is an opinion shared by all of my friends of my age lol. Personally I like mine with a fried egg and hot sauce

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

seriously. i eat my avocados with tomato, onion, peppers, a little lime or lemon, salt, some time, and some tortilla. occasionally also meat and cheese. what's this about toast.

[–] LibertyLizard@slrpnk.net 2 points 3 months ago

No it’s just a meme.

[–] Evil_Shrubbery@thelemmy.club 6 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

It doesn't have to have a nice green ribbon.
Def a plus tho.
Portrays a message of extreme eco-friendliness.

[–] krunklom@lemmy.zip 4 points 3 months ago

And trbuchets

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

excuse me i don't see proper supports. where are the buttresses

[–] MrSmith@lemmy.world 0 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Hammer and sickle is a sign of oppression.

If you want to argue otherwise, remeber that a swastika didn't always have a negative meaning.

[–] JamesBoeing737MAX@sopuli.xyz -1 points 3 months ago (4 children)

I imagine, avocado toast tastes like shit (but have never tried it). Feel free to correct me.

[–] abir_v@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

It's a pretty good snack or small breakfast, actually. Top it with some salt and pepper, it's quite nice. Assuming you like avocado, at least.

To me the bigger issue of the argument is that the boomers seem to think it's some extravagant luxury. I can get a good avocado for like a $1.50 - breakfast avocado toast ends up being maybe $2.

[–] JamesBoeing737MAX@sopuli.xyz 1 points 3 months ago

Well, here in the local shithole, it is more expensive than other fruit, but it's definately not a luxury. I have tried seasoned avocado a while ago and I like it (but still haven't tried the toast).

[–] RonniePickering@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

Everything bagel, cream cheese, bacon, avocado and pepper. One of my favorite things on this planet to eat.

[–] unclejeeves@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Correcting you, but caveating with the addition of scramby eggs and hot sauce on top makes it the food of the gods.

[–] JamesBoeing737MAX@sopuli.xyz 1 points 3 months ago

Wow, you're changing my mind. That actually sounds good.

[–] miss_demeanour@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 3 months ago

If you kick it up a notch, towards a guac, you're into bruschetta territory. How does that NOT taste great?
