I like the commercial where Billy Bob Thornton just starts talking to a lady at a car rental desk about T Mobile without any prompting. Very much the kind of thing a boomer does IRL. “Sir….. do you need to rent a car?”
@Thomas I was just thinking how awful that would be if it happened for real
@coriander you must never have worked retail. That kind of shit happened all the time
@Thomas @coriander there was an old man who would go to my kroger and every day pick a fight with a random employee in the produce section about how the cherry tomatoes on sale were actually "grape tomatoes"
i learned to hide in the back room whenever he would enter, lest i too be trapped in a grape debate.
@Thomas @wallhackio I have a buddy who used to work at a grocery store in one of the few remaining truly Weird (generally positive) parts of Vancouver and he had a story of an old guy coming in and hollering about WiFi polluting the produce with its "digital electrosmog"
@coriander @wallhackio that’s true though, that’s happening
@wallhackio @coriander how dare you?! Don’t you know that’s false advertising?!
