If that ain't white privilege I don't know what is

Yeah, but better to annoy cops with it than gas station employees

I think they live in one of the uncivilized countries that don't have a free public restroom in every store and in parks and such

Like England

Savages...

I'm american, it's still hard to find a free toilet in the city sometimes outside of subway stations.

As in they have a "bathrooms for customers only" sign or they have an actual set fee for using the facilities?

[-] Sdnimm543@slrpnk.net 2 points 9 months ago

yeah, fair

I once turned in a wallet I found on a bench near a police station and the way they spoke to me and asked questions made me never want to enter a police station again. And I'm white.

also fair, and I've only done it a couple times. its definitely got a priviledge element to it, but it's nice to wake up a tired cop to ask for bathroom key if you can swing it.
