Yeah well they were pretty shortsighted calling that specific plant “tea” when there are plenty of different varieties of plants out there that can be used to make tea. That’d be like referring to one specific fruit as “fruit”. No one would be silly enough to do something like that.
What I don’t get is how there seem to be only a few remaining food types that people of certain ethnicities can’t tolerate. Like, some people can’t tolerate cow milk, some can’t tolerate wheat, because they didn’t have those things thousands of years ago. But like, most of the planet didn’t have most of the types of food available now until relatively recently, so why don’t you hear of more people being allergic to tomatoes, potatoes, mustard, etc?
Not to me, I’ve never understood that sentiment. I can act as silly as I want without being drunk, and I hate how it turns other people into almost different people. If I wanted to be friends with their drunken selves, I wouldn’t be friends with their sober selves.
I mean I get the structure of the joke, but in this case it’s just kind of sad. I think it’s because it is not SO exaggerated of a thing to do that I could actually envision some people doing this straight up… which is not as cool as they think it is.
My only friend that really sends me memes started using TikTok a year or so ago, and sends the strangest, out of context shit. Like it will just start halfway into the action and end before it’s over, and I’m just like wtf did I just watch?
Isn’t there a big issue regarding the permanent wearing down of batteries though? Not sure anyone would want to buy a 10 y/o EV with a worn-to-hell battery that has a greatly diminished max range. And last I heard, new batteries are thousands of dollars, but maybe that’s changed?
Well said. This guy is a selfish idiot.
