It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

I got clowned on on a post about libraries saying amerikans only read shit like netanyahu’s memoir.

I was called too pessimistic and yet here I am proven correct by the long arc of history

This reminds me of when I walked into my ex gfs parent's house and they had a cop American flag magnet and I threw it in the trash when no one was looking...just saying it works

[–] Tachanka@hexbear.net 24 points 2 years ago

[–] buh@hexbear.net 41 points 2 years ago (1 children)

[–] Infamousblt@hexbear.net 34 points 2 years ago

Throw it away if you can get away with it would be fucking hilarious

Celebrating my settler-colonial holiday with my family and keeping my settler colonial biography on my nightstand grillman

[–] Llituro@hexbear.net 31 points 2 years ago

You could y'know just bump that into the trash can where it belongs.

What do you mean I can't subtitle my book "My Struggle?!" Taken? By who? This is bullshit!

Dealing with reactionary relatives isn't easy

Wish I had some advice or something

You will need:

1 glue stick Exacto knife 1 copy of the collected works of Edward Said

Was out last night for dinner with family. Some chud in a big truck, least Jewish looking person I have ever seen in my life (picture every rants-into-phone-inside-truck baseball-cap-wearing goatee-toting cracker) drove through city center multiple times flying a HUGE Israeli flag protruding through the sunroof. Truly incongruous.

sounds like the sf bay area lately

[–] LaGG_3@hexbear.net 23 points 2 years ago

Guess you found the toilet paper!

[–] President_Obama@hexbear.net 22 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Those the tissues he uses after jacking off, you think?

If they aren't , check the book scared

[–] jaeme@hexbear.net 22 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

Rip out pages throughout the book, like a few pages in all. Nothing ruins a book like a few ripped out pages scattered about.

Unless ur uncle doesn't actually read it and uses it as set dressing, which then, I'm sorry.

[–] Aryuproudomenowdaddy@hexbear.net 20 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Would suggest using a utility knife to slice the pages out near the spine.

[–] VILenin@hexbear.net 21 points 2 years ago (2 children)

That’s some weird-ass novelty toilet paper

[–] hopelessbyanxiety@hexbear.net 10 points 2 years ago

Wait doesnt normal paper clog the pipes?

[–] AFineWayToDie@hexbear.net 7 points 2 years ago

No good. Pages are already covered with shit.

[–] Evilphd666@hexbear.net 21 points 2 years ago

So when you have that inevitable Palestine vs Israel convo you legit have the "Your boos mean nothing, I've seen what you jerk off to" card.

This is the worst combination of books imaginable.

as always, i am recommending arson

[–] don@lemm.ee 18 points 2 years ago

Go to the gas station and take it with you. Deposit into gas station trash can. Fill up gas tank if needed.

[–] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 15 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Why are you in his room? Also steal it.

[–] hopelessbyanxiety@hexbear.net 10 points 2 years ago

Perfect for drying spices

Why'd you go in his bedroom?

[–] WhyEssEff@hexbear.net 25 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (2 children)

had to go to the bathroom, it's attached

Makes sense. Sorry you had to see that

[–] GalaxyBrain@hexbear.net 3 points 2 years ago

The only bathroom? Dang, bad design. Waking someone up cause you gotta take a dump and then they gotta fall asleep next to your turd stink.

[–] Tachanka@hexbear.net 15 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Why'd you go in his bedroom?

this is just speculation but I've been in a lot of houses where the bathroom is attached to someone's bedroom, or you need to pass through someone's bedroom to get to another room, etc.

Yeah, that makes sense
