cafe, homophobia (minor), materialism, family
I would just like to thank my mother once again for giving me these awesome new wireless headphones, whose noise-canceling features are doing a great job of shutting out the mildly homophobic banter of the baristas in my hometown's only independent cafe. *sigh*
(It wasn't anything too virulent, just some muttering about guys getting earrings—some "if it were my son" bullshit and snark about "you'd better be a pirate." Still. I am debating whether I want to come back here, and I'm sure as hell not busing our table for this shithead. :p )

Wow.
Ear rings.
Even the straight people have those here.

@zebratron2084 the 1980s were over a while ago, boys with earrings are faintly more risqué than being able to see a girl’s knees. But... Ohio, so.
re: cafe, homophobia (minor), materialism, family
@Leucrotta I mean, it's not ALL like that out here—it would be absurd to expect to run into that in, say, Columbus or Cleveland. But my hometown is... pretty much _that_ Ohio, yeah. *shakes head in shame*

@zebratron2084 if it makes you feel better I’m from Georgia and afaik it’s still a right wing shitpit

At least "Yarr!" at them before you keelhaul them, dear...

Maybe they would prefer you demand their clothes, their boots, and their motorcycle
re: cafe, homophobia (minor), materialism, family
@001zlnv @JulieSqveakaroo OK, that settles it. Next time I come home to Alliance, I'm bringing this outfit and I'm wearing it there. (Attn: @anthracite, you in? You can dress like my saucy wench!)
re: cafe, homophobia (minor), materialism, familyh
@zebratron2084 @JulieSqveakaroo @anthracite
If you have that outfit why would you ever not wear it?
re: cafe, homophobia (minor), materialism, familyh
@001zlnv @zebratron2084 @anthracite... yeah, I'm in agreement with the balloon, here...
re: cafe, right-wing paranoia, communism (++), doowop, good-natured blasphemy
I would also like to thank the 180-Gs for this comforting carol of holiday joy in this trying time. (Especially since, now that I look around, the holiday decorations in this cafe are a _bit_ "CHRIST THE CONQUERING LORD" centric...)
