Possibly, but could also just be a regional/being an ass thing.

I’m in the Southern US and if you don’t sidestep or flat out get out of the way of someone (not just a woman) with a “pardon me” you’re seen as a jackass.

However, I’ve traveled the world and as a 6 foot tall, 200lb man I got a wide berth when walking down the sidewalks in a lot of countries, have to get out of the way in others, seen people cross the street when they saw me, but then have some 5’ nothing dude with a chip on his shoulder try to start a fight with me for existing in Boston (note this is just a very Boston thing)

Man, I had this happen back in college. Went on a date where she thought tiramisu sounded gross because of “lady fingers”…

So she ordered the “cream brooly”.

Liftoff has been treating me well so far. I used RiF prior to Lemmy and Liftoff is almost* scratching the itch, but there are some kinks to work out.

Plus no ads and no $100+ premium fee.

First off, don’t refer to the 90’s as “30” years ago. That’s just rude dude…

Second, yeah this has been an ongoing theme for decades…

Wait, did I get old? What the fuck?!
