ALSO

Says no smoking, but you can clearly smell that there's been smoking. In one of the doorways, there's a melting gummy bear on the floor. Garbage was tossed outside an exit and smells horrible

We have to stop again on the way back its a two day drive between PA and FL. Luckily, my mom has a friend she met through work here in SC and he's offered to lend us his home on the way back, so we're definitely taking that offer up

Kinda funny because the only reason we're going to Florida is because my mom has a friend down there that's offered to let us stay at her place.

hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I'd like to be rude to the fashion industry.

This is why. This is bullshit. I'm simply looking for a white formal button up. I don't want to be bombarded by half-naked women, personally. Good for her for expressing herself I guess, and anyone who chooses to wear it in that way, but is this why they think I want to buy this? Is this how they expect me to wear this? I didn't go looking for a white formal button up to look sexy. Not even to look pretty. I just… why. That's not how this piece of clothing should be advertised. You'd never see anything like this when shopping for boys.
I can take the link down if it's not allowed/welcome.

We live in a world that is so fucked up that in a section for women's clothing you still find that the woman is being sold as a product. Because she's not expressing herself (didn't look at it though btw so I can't be sure). She was put there. She's being used as a sexually available prop. And that's sick.

I 100% agree.

The use of sex in advertising is always so weird to me. I'm not sure if it's my asexuality or my autism, but it just always feels so off to me. I didn't even realize that hypersexualization of people (usually women) in commercials are meant as sex appeal until last year.

this is bringing back memories of gay fifth grade me walking past Victoria's Secret ads and trying to play it off like I wasn't uncomfortable at all

@berlioz

Those "sexy" Carl's Junior ads were when I started to wonder if something was off, either with me or the world. On one hand I was completely uncomfortable and thought it was just weird marketing, but on the other hand I thought, why would there be so many sexy ads on TV if they didn't actually work? Why wouldn't people shut up about sex and "hot" people if it weren't actually apart of their lives? Why were there so many rom-coms and romantic sub-plots in movies? Why would people talk about lust and seduction like it's a real thing? That's kind of when I realized I wasn't your average allo, even though it was a few years ago and I didn't fully understand it yet.

@berlioz

"Sexy Carl's Junior ads" activates my fight-or-flight.

Same, that's when it's time to change the channel

Hardee's kinda slaps though

@Pickles group

Wait Hardee's and Carl's Junior aren't the same place???

Same place different names iirc

I think Hardee's is easy coast and Carl's Jr is west but idrk. All I know is there's a Hardee's here and Carl's Jr is sometimes on Good Mythical Morning

@evastardust groupRRAAAARRL

Yeah
There's one in Madison that I've like never been to, but I've been to one in Steven's Point (have I told y'all my story about the lady I met in the bathroom there?) and one on the way back from longing sigh Winona.

Alaska had Carl's Jr and Nebraska has Hardee's, so I have no fucking clue lmao

@evastardust groupRRAAAARRL

Wait what story
I haven't heard the story

Tell us the story

K so I'm pretty sure I've mentioned DI before, but if not: it's a program I was/am in through school/my own spite and desire to keep doing it that focuses on STEAM elements. My team and I were up at UW Steven's Point for State that year, and we were doing a little 8-minute musical. So my teammates and I are in the bathroom getting into our costumes, and since mine was the least elaborate, I'm done the soonest and just lounging against the wall while I wait for them. I'm bored and holding onto this creepy little sun prop that we named Phillip (because we were all really into Hamilton) and so I start to sing "Dear Theodosia". Apparently there's another woman in there with us, and she comes out of the stall with a sign wedged under her arm (I'm pretty sure she was protesting for stronger gun control since this would've been pretty soon after the Parkland shooting) and after washing her hands, looks at me and goes "you have the voice of an angel, dear" and leaves
I was stunned into silence
Honestly the nicest thing a stranger has ever said to me, especially because I'm very self-conscious of my singing voice.

@evastardust groupRRAAAARRL

Literally 5 minutes before that my friends and I had laughed ourselves to tears over a so-dumb-it's-funny joke in a birthday card they got me ("I went to the zoo to look at all of the animals, and they didn't have any lions, tigers, or even monkeys. Just a dog. It was a shih tzu.") and then I was tearing up over Nice Bathroom Lady and I think that's the Gen Z experience.

@evastardust groupRRAAAARRL
