The "thank you for your attention to this matter" era is pretty funny

[-] CleverOleg@hexbear.net 49 points 1 week ago

I swear to god, literally no one on planet earth is able to be normal about Sydney Sweeney.

back in the day greeks would kill each other over conventionally attractive women. it a post-woke world, the best we can do is post through it.

[-] fox@hexbear.net 46 points 1 week ago

The most annoying part of all this is other companies will see the hubbub around jeans and decide that making obnoxious dog whistle ads is the way to go because no advertising executive has a functioning brain and they all infinitely copy each other, wringing every bit of value out of a concept. Oh, Wendy's Twitter is being rude to people and it gets engagement? Better make sure Milwaukee Tools also claps back at the haters now

[-] MayoPete@hexbear.net 25 points 1 week ago

So glad I didn't get seriously into Twitter. Sounds exhausting

Dunkin Donuts already did

Usan politics is a form of brain damage.

It's impossible to read this and not feel your mind shrink. I know what the words mean but there's no sense to be found.

[-] itsraining@lemmygrad.ml 42 points 1 week ago

How USA is still a country with this level of brain damage?

[-] barrbaric@hexbear.net 17 points 1 week ago

Inertia, mostly.

[-] Euergetes@hexbear.net 42 points 1 week ago

pedophiles don't get to have opinions on how adult women look

[-] FreeRangeKitties@hexbear.net 23 points 1 week ago

yeah! they should keep their opinions to beauty pageants!

wait

[-] 9to5@hexbear.net 42 points 1 week ago

[-] SoyViking@hexbear.net 39 points 1 week ago

Yeah, I'm a hot republican too trouble

[-] Robert_Kennedy_Jr@hexbear.net 34 points 1 week ago

Read this but imagine he's saying it like an announcer from the 40s using a trans Atlantic voice.

[-] BobDole@hexbear.net 31 points 1 week ago

They transed the Atlantic! When will woke stop????? eviscerated

[-] infuziSporg@hexbear.net 13 points 1 week ago

not to be rude, but i think almost literally everyone commenting in this thread is misinterpreting this use of the word "hot." for a while now, trump has been back on using that in its older slang sense, as in "so hot right now." he talks about the way women look a lot, but this isn't one of those times.

[-] ThermonuclearEgg@hexbear.net 19 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

I'm actually not convinced it even matters what he really meant โ€” like he's probably still just as wrong both ways

[-] Llituro@hexbear.net 12 points 1 week ago

i find it generally useful to at least understand what someone's trying to say when figuring out their intentions. and it's so odd that he's trying to make saying things are "hot" a thing again. like he's saying amerikkka is the hottest country.

[-] ThermonuclearEgg@hexbear.net 11 points 1 week ago

trump-yassified: "panting amerikkka"

Folks, we have the hottest Country, the fires are burning very Hot!

I wonder if Trump's getting a little sleepy himself now that he's almost 80

Not native speaker here but i though saying the word "hot" in this context basically means its a very seeked commodity, as in sells like hot bread, aka very attractive.

[-] Euergetes@hexbear.net 11 points 1 week ago

I don't think those meanings of hot are disentwined as you suggest. Hot (popular) and Hot (sexy) are semantically related and in the context of talking about women a misogynist is definitely referring to how they look, if also to how popular/profitable they are.

I ain't reading that and neither should anyone else

[-] krolden@lemmy.ml 31 points 1 week ago

Please just die

[-] BurgerPunk@hexbear.net 27 points 1 week ago

His "thank you for your attention to this matter" sign off drives me crazy. Its the last line every every bullshit threat from a landlord. It makes me sick anytime i see it

The pants are "flying of the shelves", is this some kind of interpretive dance number?

[-] anarchoilluminati@hexbear.net 21 points 1 week ago

So, I'm guessing this is actually real?

And did Sydney Sweeney admit she is a Republican?

[-] culpritus@hexbear.net 23 points 1 week ago

Sydney Sweeney registered as a Republican voter in Florida a few months before Donald Trump won a second US presidency, it has been revealed

[-] came_apart_at_Kmart@hexbear.net 25 points 1 week ago

a genius move for her brand, and as a multimillionaire.

[-] ephemeral@hexbear.net 38 points 1 week ago

I doubt she even did it "for her brand" most likely she's just a rich cracker doing rich cracker things

[-] culpritus@hexbear.net 28 points 1 week ago

She also recently bought a beach-front mansion in the FL Keys for like twice what it sold for a year earlier. Making lots of brilliantly inspired choices lately.

[-] anarchoilluminati@hexbear.net 19 points 1 week ago

That's a very smart long-term investment in deep sea mining property!

[-] MayoPete@hexbear.net 11 points 1 week ago

Comrade hurricane plz ๐Ÿ™

[-] culpritus@hexbear.net 13 points 1 week ago

Hurricane Karen is in the list this year. lathe-of-heaven

[-] hellinkilla@hexbear.net 21 points 1 week ago

Well the core of what he is saying is that "hotness" is socially constructed. It is contingent on one's context, how they act within its constraints, and the tides of history, rather than being some essential innate attribute.

In other words: Sydney Sweeney's genes are adequate for survival, apparently, and we can't say much more.

[-] Parzivus@hexbear.net 21 points 1 week ago

Does he think the beer company is called Bud Lite?

[-] porous_grey_matter@lemmy.ml 18 points 1 week ago

No, and the people who he's writing to don't know what an Anheuser-Busch is. What it means is "remember that thing you were angry at? think about how angry you were again".

[-] schlongjohnson@hexbear.net 13 points 1 week ago

ive seen people proudly boycott bud lite by switching to busch lite

[-] infuziSporg@hexbear.net 12 points 1 week ago

That's probably why the "boycott" in spring 2023 only made a brief flicker on the stock price of AB InBev.

[-] blobjim@hexbear.net 19 points 1 week ago

"being Republican is what you want to be" sounds too reddit-like for this to have been written by Trump.

[-] Rey_McSriff@hexbear.net 16 points 1 week ago

(Sideshow Bob voice) You secretly long for a cold-hearted Republican to lower taxes, brutalize criminals, and rule you like a king!

"being Republican is what you want to be"

Modern fascism is getting really blatant about the esoteric egoism. Pretty soon MAGA people will be embracing full solipsism and walking off cliffs believing that they can fly because they are the fulcrum around which the universe turns.

Tfw aesthetics matter more than substance. The factories of these commodities may very well be exactly the same but all that matters is which hot blonde celebrity made a commercial for them lmao

[-] prole@hexbear.net 16 points 1 week ago

Grandpa posting from the toilet is the arbiter of what's HOT

While Trump spends his time on juvenile dog whistles, the nasty, evil gnomes around him are working in the shadows destroying everything.
