Not a meme, just sound advice. Sound advice that feels bad man ima report dis
But this is the only method I trust to not surprise me with fees for a “free” service.
“Free-free-free, free-free, free. That’ll be $39.95.”
Burger King. They’ve messed up orders, burned food, and drowned stuff in mayonnaise too many times to tolerate.
Now I just cook frozen burger patties on the stove, and tell myself that their sides were never all that great anyway.
Got it. So then yes, I’d say it’s possible from a technical standpoint. But you really ought not to do it.
That’s what you call a viral vector. Apparently the Sputnik V vaccine for COVID used this approach.
Edit: Sorry, wait, do you mean like designing a viral vector-based vaccine and spraying it into the air to vaccinate everyone around? That seems like it’d run afoul of some kind of ethics things.
Perhaps a better question is why aren’t more people shunned. There are some good answers already, but I’ll throw in another reason that seems to come up sometimes.
The US is highly polarized on a lot of issues. If one can frame their shunning as one of those wedge issues, they can probably get enough people to rally around them that they escape accountability.
“I’m being deplatformed because of racism against white people!”
“We have freedom of speech in this country, so if you take everything in the Constitution absolutely literally like I do, it’s obvious I should be able to spew whatever bullshit I want. You don’t hate the Constitution and the founding fathers, do you?”
Having people of color, which automatically qualified it as “ghetto”. We were under-resourced, and it seemed a lot of the talented kids moved to attend a rival school instead. We routinely got our asses kicked in academics and sports.
I don’t know bout y’all but my rarest pepe was forged in the physical world with a pencil and a sheet of paper. It was so rare and powerful that I had to split it into 7 pieces and scatter them across the land.
I’m not sure where the pieces are now exactly. Last I heard, there were two competing search teams hunting for them, one being a ragtag team of inexperienced heart-of-gold types and the other being some sort of evil empire.
I figured it’d be best not to get involved.
Deathly Hallows
I’d also say that seeing someone you relate to (fictional or not) can give you some distance / objectivity to see the situation in a different way. Like, what’s the fanfic alternate universe where the character doesn’t kill themselves look like?
Inside of you are two wolves, Hope and Despair. If you feed one, it will grow and overtake the other.
However, they both want treats outside of meal time. In this way, they are both delusional.
