    That’s weird. My coffee is way cheaper at Dunkin Donuts and it’s counter service so I don’t fucking tip them.

      Wrong. You tip for counter service now. You tip the gas station attendant for ringing up your bubble gum. Soon you will tip your doctor for giving you a prescription. Thanks Obama!

          People here who don’t remember the thanks Obama meme is very sad.

          Anytime anything bad happened people would say “thanks Obama” then it got turned into a meme of people saying it when it didn’t even have anything to do with Obama.

          It got so popular that Obama himself made a meme.

            Haha. Somehow I haven’t seen that before. Obama was a very likeable person.

            Edit: idk why I said “was”. He’s not dead. He is a likeable person.

              Eh, Obama oversaw the expansion of our national surveillance state apparatus, so…not everybody felt he was very likable.

            It’s not that people don’t remember the meme; it’s that this guy seems like he’s saying it unironically.

                  I cannot overcome the laws of reality. All I can do is place faith in my fellow humans to rise above the need for /s tags. I figured the line about tipping doctors for writing prescriptions, and the use of a common meme were clear indications that I was being sarcastic. But I get your point, and there is a lot of crazy on the internet these days (always has been, but it’s even more common now).
