The west coast is a trip, because rich white people will move to the cities to go slumming and then try to tell you about gentrification like you didn't have a landlord evict you from a rent-controlled apartment that had been in your family since your grandma.

The last one was very high and mighty to me about gentrification in Portland, Oregon.

I don't live in Portland, Oregon, never mind own a house and collect rent out there?

I was going to make a joke about landlord anarchists, but I've met at least 3 of them

My favorite anime is The Charlie Brown and Snoopy Show.

I'm fascinated by 90s emo because it's like an uncanny mirror world of suburban ennui.

Every 90s emo song has a corresponding chillhop gif, except in the emo world, the colors are all dark and primary instead of muted and pastel.

It's 2019 and we can't get photosynthesis surgery yet? I can't produce my own carbohydrates for metabolism yet?

Marvel movies, and bowling, and pool.

Wtf do I look like, Homer Simpson?

I think part of the reason I felt so lonely in Seattle is that I kept on hanging out with people who wanted to see Marvel movies. And I went along with it for some reason.

Muppets. There's something poignant about Muppets.

Ok, I don't know a lot about Thinkpads, but if I bought one to run Linux on and play around with programming/penetration testing, which one should it be?

I want something cheap and reliable, and I don't mind if the tech is outdated.

These people honestly project so much. They'll tell you they're being dogpiled when they went out their way to pick a fight with someone and get all their friends to join in mocking them. They'll tell you they're fighting a pedophile, and then you find out they're the one who's 26 and grooming 14 year old kids on their private chat server.

If they even THINK you are rainbow-haired adjacent they get really mad at you for existing.

They'll have their little anime avatar with pink and blue and green hair out there accusing you of being some anime-obsessed dumbass girl, even though your post isn't about anime at all and you don't understand any of the weeb-specific insults they are calling you.

That very special part of the trans community that hates rainbow-haired happy queers as much as possible because they have their own shit to work out and refuse to deal with their own internalized transphobia...

Truscum: Stop gatekeeping who can be trans with this cat-ear wearing programming poly nonsense!

oh wait

"The regular expression does not cope with comments in email addresses. The RFC allows comments to be arbitrarily nested. A single regular expression cannot cope with this."

i guess no regex is fully RFC compliant then
