Ahead of the presidential election, Ben & Jerry’s endorses Kamala Harris with new ice cream flavor
You're viewing a single thread.
While a fine name for an icecream flavour, "Kamala’s Coconut Jubilee" also sounds more than a little bit like the title of a porn parody where a bunch of really old white dudes eagerly get topped by a black milf that stares into the camera for an uncomfortably long time, while a recording of Tim Walz explains how to replace the headlights on a 2005 subaru outback and the finer points of grilling top sirloin.
...came here to say this?
So did I, bud.
Boy did you ever.
I cherish you.
Keep going. I'm almost there.
How do you replace the headlights on a 05 Outback?
It's actually really obnoxious to do and I highly recommend looking up a couple vids before attempting it - getting that stupid seating ring in the right orientation is as I said, incredibly obnoxious, and my big dumb meat hands can barely fit in the space to manipulate the bulbs. Oh and you have to pull the battery out to get at the driver side running lights. Good cars but there's some really stupid design elements.
Yes bringing up porn in every comment section makes you funny and mature 🙄
You okay there? Need a hug or something?
What'd you really intend with your initial comment, though. I'm not even trying to be a dick here, I just took a poke around your comment history and it seems like we'd get along fine, so I'm really curious why you came out swinging here.
Are you really offended that I made a crude joke? Is this an extremely understandable expression of exasperation at the state of discourse in our political sphere? Perhaps you were just in a foul mood and, since your comment didn't get the traction you expected, you're now reflexively defending yourself using the classic strategy of posting a gif to try and both limit my possible responses and to indicate the opinion you hold of your own position of superiority in this conversation by considering me unworthy of a response you reserve for those you consider 'mature' adults?
Sincerely, this seems out of character for you. I was being flippant, but like, do you actually need a hug? I can't do more than type <hug> but man, I fucking know how hard this political cycle has been on me and my own mental health, so if you even just want to vent I'm incredibly sympathetic and here for it. Shit starts feeling hopeless, even with some positive reporting on the Harris campaign's polling.

I mean, I didn't expect it to be well-received, but to quote the girl from Deadpool, you got me in a box here.
I appreciate you taking the time to evaluate the situation so thoroughly. I also really appreciate your kind words. It really has been a horrible news cycle these last few months, hasn't it? Despite my hope that Kamala can pull off a win, I've recently come to the realization that the annoying people were right and "the system" really doesn't work as it should at all. We're one wrong move away from the edge, and I feel like the people in power are doing nothing to help that situation. (At least, most of them-- too few to make real progress). It's rough out there, man. If you need anything I'm here as well.
As for the actual post... I just don't like how every political post has like 6 sex jokes under it. I know I said "you" are always posting them but that wasn't right; I meant that someone always does. It's like that webcomic where people psychic attack each other by saying phrases that make them think of horrible things. Hearing about Trump and porn in the same sentence makes me take psychic damage. I posted the gif because I perceived your reply as disingenuous; I now see that you actually did mean to help, but I've seen too many people feign concern as a way to say that the person they're replying to must be mentally unwell (in a derogatory way) to trust it. It seemed disproportionate enough to be interpreted that way, but I see now that I was wrong.
This has been a bit of a ramble, but thank you for reminding me there are still good people on the internet. I think I'll head to bed now. Hope to see you again on here!
