Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

I got into century club and it was really fucking awful. There was one user in particular who was a real beard as personality late middle aged dude. He would post about his mundane suburban life constantly, as if anyone was interested, and would refer to his wife as Mrs WhateverTheFuckHisUsernameWas. It was so incredibly condescending and cringe. But because this was Reddit his boring ass self commentary was fawned upon by other century club users, wanting a bit of parasocial interaction. If you were particularly lucky and lived nearby he might swing by and then post pictures of himself drinking and smoking cigars with you.
To top it off he was a veteran. A real arsehole of a veteran. I think I made some comment about Afghanistan and he responded to me with a story about how he got drunk and ran over a bunch of camels with an LAV, thinking he sounded really cool and unconcerned. True or not, it was just the worst, most childish thing anyone had ever said to me. Just oozing with this need to be seen as some sort of cool dude who couldn't care less about silly little things like human rights or illegal wars.
I left that sub pretty much because of this one dude. Oh, and some other user called MrPants who also referred to his "wifey" as Mrs Pants. 🤮
Ugh, I'm getting angry just thinking about them again
What if she insists on being called Mrs. ThickFoamySharts?
