BB69, in Not sure why they use this in marketing

My employer says this as a way to show they won’t ever sell out.

Looking at the trust, they aren’t allowed to sell out lol

I’m sure it wouldn’t surprise you to know how fast the mask falls off when a white liberal or conservative are able to be full on racist.

Oh, not a lick. I might have been born at night; but it sure as shit wasn’t last night-- I’ve been around long enough to know the North has sundown towns too, same as the coasts, same as south of the Mason-Dixon.

The difference is that they usualy plan for a longer time, sometimes for generations, while the usual CEOs plan very short term, because they don’t care what happens with the company after them. Family owned business don’t have to give out part of their earnings every year, so it’s not that big of a problem if they have little earnings in a year, while the market share of a normal Company will immediately fall. So there actually is a huge difference.

That aside I don’t know why they market it like that. I think it just sounds more trustworthy.

A company can be family owned and being public at the same time. I work in one, just happen that the family who owns it have a controlled majority of the shares.

TheFriendlyDickhead,

So they still are in control what happens. The rest of the shareholders are just along for the ride and collect a bit of money

As long as it’s a small business, that’s fine. If you’re a big business, you should try to think back to what happened during the French Revolution.

Mexican food never gives me the shits, is this just a meme promoted by people who never get enough fiber?

Grumpy,

I feel like it’s more rooted in racism than actually foods. Plenty of other cuisines have more fiber and more spices. Mexican isn’t really special in its ingredients or it’s preps.

Then why specific hate for mexican? I really can’t come with any answer than racism.

Internet is weird. Some stereotypes and racism are easily accepted and considered funny.

JohnDClay,

I’m guessing some Mexican fast food places also don’t have the greatest sanitary conditions, so are more likely to give you the poops.

I assure you: This is true of all fast food genres, they’re fuckin nasty.

BCsven,

Yep my kid gave their coworker a WTF when they used the restaurant toilet plunger on the veg prep sink

dumbcrumb,

Yea Im pretty sure all the people who talk about mexican food and tacobell giving them shits just have shit diets. Ive never had these problems either.

FartsWithAnAccent,
@FartsWithAnAccent@lemmy.world avatar

Even Taco Bell doesn’t usually give me the shits, unless I drink soda from one of those nasty ass dispensers fast food joints regularly neglect cleaning.

BCsven,

There were some social media posts about taco bell management telling workers to still serve the food that was marked as expired, so the shits might be compromised food ingredients.

FartsWithAnAccent,
@FartsWithAnAccent@lemmy.world avatar

This is a real risk at pretty much any fast food place and plenty of regular restaurants. Gotta keep an eye on how the management runs stuff (or just make your own food).

BCsven,

Since COVID we have made 99% of our food from scratch (i.e. making my own thai curry paste from scratch, grinding my own spices, etc)…I’m now almost always very disappointed by meals outside the home…especially with the price hikes.

FartsWithAnAccent,
@FartsWithAnAccent@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah, $15 for a shitty burger and cold fries? No thanks.

EnderMB,

As a long-time IBS sufferer, I’m always happy to see memes about getting the shits, because it makes me feel less alone.

Since everything seems to fuck my stomach up, I eat mexican food all the time. If I’m going to spend my evening on the toilet, I may as well enjoy myself!

afox,

Same

Acters,

From personal experience, the green and red sauce causes me problems. Even Chipotle’s red and green sauce affects me, so it’s not about the cheap or expired stuff. Just my body rejecting it. Anything spicy does me in, but not all spices or hot spice.

FartsWithAnAccent,
@FartsWithAnAccent@lemmy.world avatar

At least it’s not all spicy things

Hey listen to this EVP I got from the cheap ass recording device that I was waving around like a mad man. Nevermind the fact that the professional boom mic didn’t pick anything up.

When you edit the file just right, tweak the equalizer just so, and apply the right filters, I can fool you into hearing something that almost sounds like a word!

Taleya, in spookyyyy

I went on a ghost tour once and they tried to use an EM reader like a goddamn PKE.

‘This timeball tower is haunted by an old keeper look!!’

Bitch you’re literally surrounded by people with mobile phones in their pockets, and there’s a goddamn maritime signalling tower on top of the damned thing.

radioactiveradio,

I like the ones that say random words out nowhere. “Buzz buzz Krankenwagen buzz buzz” “the ghost was German” in the Asian haunted house.

saltnotsugar, in spookyyyy

Let’s get some good camera shaking going, turn on the night vision, and run out of the room randomly.

radioactiveradio,

And make sure to only see the ghost when the camera turns and make it disappear when the camera points back at it.

CaptDust, in spookyyyy

Maybe try the radio scanner ahem spirit box?

Enzy, in What now?

Me at the SGU cliffhanger.
