1995… The peak of humanity. Industrial clubs everywhere, fun cheap bars, bright clothes, danceable music, computers you still had a chance of understanding somewhat, home appliances and lightbulbs didn’t need firmware updates or spy on you, affordable housing and groceries, relative worldwide peace…
I think I’d burst into tears if I saw this sign IRL
So, a white bread is USD0.77?
What do you want me to act like my kin circa 1995? Because if so you may want to get out of the way cause I’ve got a weed sprayer filled with diesel and a little cigarette!
Sure, go back to a time where you might have to fight for your life just for wearing the wrong t-shirt out of Blur and Oasis (Pulp btw).
I don’t expect places to have wifi. If only phones had their own way of connecting to the internet.
Do people really want wifi these days? Why would i trust some random sketchy wifi if my own phone has a plan with >5gb.
i hate phones
(i have no other comment.)
But people in the real world don’t like talking to me.
I never use any public WiFi on my phone, why would you use wifi like it’s 2005?
I didn’t like talking to other people in 1995, and I sure as hell aren’t going to start enjoying it now.
When my family goes out we usually have to put our phones away. It was my rule, but now I break my own rules and my kids have to tell me to put my phone away. I guess my kids are better than me now.
I saw this exact same sign in a restaurant in Newfoundland
We Do Not Have ✨WiFi✨
Use The Hotspot On Your Phone Like A Normal Person
Or Get A Data Card For Your Laptop IDK Or Care
except that in america at least lots of data plans somehow block you from using the hotspot function, i do not fathom how the fuck it’s possible but people keep talking about it so i have to assume it’s a real thing…
What? That’s… that’s insane
the US is completely fucking insane, all the stuff we hear about countries like china and north korea basically actually happen in the US and no one gives a fuck, and americans just find it so normal that they don’t realize others would think it’s fucked up
Yep, Americans have less freedom than North Koreans because we can’t tether our phones data service to our laptops. /s
I fully support net neutrality, but there are bigger problems than not being able to tether your phone’s data plan to your laptop.
There’s a place near me that I don’t go to very often, and almost never if I’m alone. They have great food and it’s pretty cheap, but they don’t have WiFi.
That normally wouldn’t be a problem, because I rarely use any of my cell data, but it’s a super old building full of interference and I can only get cell signal if I happen to get one of the 3 seats within 10 foot of the front windows.
If I do go by myself, I get weird looks for bringing comic books or video games and just existing by myself, but there’s nothing else to do while waiting for food so…
Yeah, I think there’s about two games you can download to your phone that will run without an internet connection. Even fucking Balatro—what do you need internet for? People have paid for the game!
I once was in a lunch group where one of the people honestly asked the restaurant staff about wifi, standing almost next to this sign. The guy smugly pointed at the sign and said nothing.
It was cringy for everyone involved.
If you put this passive agressive bullshit up ima gonna smoke indoors and pay 25c for my drink.
Maybe drink too much, assault a woman and call the bartender the f slur. Feeling cute.
What the fuck is the f slur? Other than fuck
Everyone was wrong.
whispers
It’s “French”.
I think it’s the one that rhymes with Taggart. And is another word for a bassoon.
Is faggart like a new slur? Or do you just have questionable rhyming skills?
Gonna start calling my gay artist friend a faggart now thanks.
“Faggot”, slur used for homosexual men.
Imagine a bundle of sticks all rolled together….
But what why would they be riding their loud motorcycles in a coffee shop?
Fascist?
That sign looks like it really blocks access to those refrigerators. is it even necessary to be so obnoxious about your lousy cheap lack of WiFi? Just have a little sign that says “no WiFi” if that is even really necessary, without being sarcastic about it.
I don’t know about you, but I would probably go around the counter, instead of climbing over it and through a sign, if I needed to get to the fridges behind.
Oh that’s a counter lol. The perspective is weird here to me. Almost looks like a little bench or something.
