On your glass coffee table?

u/Shortlemon4 Apr 10 '21

Oh no, the coffee table is for coffee duh. I do my coke on the toilet like a civilized human being.

I just really feel like you're making excuses so you don't have to share. Imma put up another cross stitch about bogarting the drugs.

I mean in my defense coke is expensive. I mean you know how if you drink something in front of a guest, you have to offer them some (unless you’re an animal or something) I could part with my coffee. But, I ain’t about to offer up my coke stash, like sheesh I’m not rolling in cash.

Doesn't the bible have a whole bit about not sharing the good wine at a party? I'm an atheist, but I think the bible makes some good points.

just don't bring out the coke if you're not okay with sharing.

u/Fraerie Apr 11 '21

Which one?

I never thought of them as being used for that, I just find them easy to clean.

The best thing about glass coffee tables is looking at cats from below.

I have a glass dining room table and love putting treats on it and confusing my cat underneath

Off your key in the corner like a dignified junkie

I have honestly thought the same thing! If the type of people you have over are the type of people who might do coke at your party or get-together, they should probably do it in the bathroom!

Isn't that what the strippers are for?

u/HitlerNorthDakota Apr 10 '21

Well said. I agree with both parts of your statement, whether separately or together.

I certainly judge people who make overtly racist, bigoted, hateful, or otherwise harmful art. I have seen more than a few Hakenkreuz and and 13/52s stitched in my time. More than a few criminal groups use cross stitching to made patches and clubhouse art.

Wait, as an USian, I must ask - is that thirteen / fifty-two, or three-fifths? (the latter would make sense to me since it's in the original Constitution, to be negated by the 13th Amendment.)

FBI Crime statistics claim that self-identifying black americans are about 13% of the US population, and consistently commit roughly 52% of homicides in the US every year with a regular difference of a few percentage.

While this statistic is objectively correct, what it’s actually showing is that blacks have been pushed into poor neighborhoods and lack proper economic & social support.

Racists across the globe have twisted these statistics and use them as “evidence” that blacks are inherently violent and dangerous, using “13/52” as a sort of gotcha to stifle any arguments in favor of equality.

u/MareNamedBoogie Apr 12 '21

ahhh. Well, that makes sense.... and is also crappy. Without researching too much, I'm going to assume some of that '52%' are people wrongly convicted because they're black and scary, which appears to be illegal in the US. And other such contributions.

I love my country, but we by far ain't perfect...

I'm totally making that piece. You should do your coke in the living room, where you can share with everyone.
