Or they just use soap/after shave that smells like hell. I swear there's some soap/shower soap here everyone uses and it smells like public toilets.
Her horns gross me out. I don't know why so it creeps me out to look at them for too long.

I think the biggest thing that bothers me about her is her color pallet.
I agree with this, like 99%. You have to give the benefit of the doubt to homeless people though or people that are struggling. You don’t know what someone might be going through or their situation. Sometimes food is a necessity over everything else that personal hygiene might not be ideal at the time. I understand where you’re coming from though. There was this older guy I used to work with at McDonald’s and he used to smell everyday. He was basically homeless but he had a car he was staying in. It wasn’t an ideal situation but nobody said anything.
Also — “you” is referring to in general, not you specifically.
Yes. I find her horns and her appearance weird.

Agreed. It's not hard to smell good. Legit homeless people are a whole other thing but I'm talking about those who have a place to live: buy some soap. Dollar stores have it.
It also just blows my mind. I would be horrified walking around like that, not to mention it feels gross to be all greasy. If they use the mindset of "idc" then... do they like their own stench? I guess?
Ohh for sure re homeless people, because they can't so much as change clothes very easily, let alone wash. People who can afford to eat regularly and have somewhere to stay have no excuse.

I strongly dislike streaming services. They're causing the quick ruin of many industries, especially rental companies, movie theaters, drive-in's, etc.
Even though the services have their place when it comes to original shows from their studios, it's sad to see so many in-person experiences slowly fading away.

I'm happy streaming services is a thing. Movie theaters have always been ridiculously overpriced so for them to 'take a hit' is nice. But that's my pettiness talking lol.
But I am sad that in person things are kinda fading. Like online shopping vs in person shopping at a store. Lots of stores around where I am are suffering. Their stock is low but meanwhile online you can buy loads more things so why go to the store? It sucks cause as much as I adore online shopping, I love going to the store and actually feeling the items I'm buying.
I agree. The only ones I use are like the public service free ones if they put up old series not available on tv/dvd or to watch re-runs of stuff I missed.
I don't care for "original" series these days since a lot of them are just remakes/not original stuff/teen pc things and yeah I think it takes away a lot of the creative stuff from when stuff was actually made for an actual TV (or cinema etc.)
Also cinema are the best place to watch movies, or TV/DVD if I can catch those.
Also unpopular onion: I actually like that Pokémon Sword/Shield aren't graphics heavy and rather "easy" compared to sm/usum. The latter were my least fave games and this is actually a nice break. Like there was no way Ninty would do like Botw graphics and do the s/m gfx thing to force people to purchase a new console just for it. Plus I like when exp share is on, training without it is just p a i n.

Schools and prisons should force teens/misdemeanor convicts to work at least two weeks in customer service.
The self-entitlement of the average consumer has gotten beyond ridiculous, and with hiring rates at an all-time stall more places could open up and catch up with the workload.

You can always tell who hasn’t worked a day in their life.

i mean, i'm not really sure how that would help? maybe instead businesses could start actually pushing back against rude, entitled customers and the whole "the customer is right" mentality and actually stick up for their underpaid workers? like, people would probably be more open to working these jobs if they weren't expected to put up with literal abuse from both customers as well as their employers.
In the uk we had to do a mandatory 2 weeks at an entry level job around the age of 15. I think it was because we used to officially leave mandatory education at 16. Education beyond that was optional, so I assume the idea was to set those up that wanted to go straight into work. The age of leaving education here was changed to 18 a couple of years ago, though apprenticeships etc now count as education too. If you don't pass secondary school level English and Maths, you have to continue doing them either until you pass or until you turn 18. I sort of assume covid would've prevented work experience from happening easily with schools.
I agree with you, it's the best way to teach people, by letting them experience the environment themselves. I hate seeing people being so rude to retail workers and restaurant workers etc. Occasionally I will tell them to chill out, if they're clearly upsetting someone. It's a real pet peeve and one way to instantly put me off someone, if they're rude to people just trying to work.
Yep! Also they end up dumped at a shelter more often, cos the owner can't handle them. There's a woman local to me who has 6 collies in a tiny one bed flat. She walks them without leads and they just run everywhere, all neurotic and out of control. They're working dogs ffs, it's cruel.
By far though, the breed that cannot seem to handle domestic life the most is German Shepherds (unless very well cared for and excercised a lot, every single day). They're police dogs. Guard dogs even. Way too many I have known to just suddenly snap one day and attack someone. Plus for a while, people were getting them as status dogs and they're the type of people who shouldn't have dogs in the first place. I think the worst incident I remember with a German Shepherd was this one that got stung by a bee and went on an absolute rampage before getting hit by a car. Attacked several people, including kids on their way to school. Probably rare that it goes that far, but too many I have known to "suddenly turn". It's because they're working dogs. Working dogs are neurotic and can't channel it appropriately if not given a job.
Schools and prisons? I think everybody should, and you should have to do it again before you're allowed to retire and become an entitled old scumbag to remind yourself what it's like one last time.
My partner came home the other day crying because a drive through customer got so angry and vile towards her that he literally got out of the car, went in to the store and tried to assault her. Why? Because it was raining and he wouldn't wind his window up so he got wet....Or the guy that ordered a contact free delivery because he had Covid who got so angry that his delivery took longer than 15 minutes that he drove to the store and started spitting at all the staff.
Though the better solution would be that you should be allowed to give back the same attitude a customer gives you. Whoever coined the phrase "the customer is always right" deserves the worst kind of torture because they've subjected so many people to so much abuse over the years.

Very true, I just thought that if more people had experience dealing with the service sector then there’d be a little more patience when they return to their own lives. Those two groups were the only two I could think of reasonably being ‘forced’ into working. I’d love to change the customer is always right mentality of corporate culture, but teaching the people would probably be more effective than fighting the system.
Taking a job as a school elective used to be more common in the states, I know my dad did it and it instilled a love of cooking from his time at the restaurant. If more kids had experience behind the counter they might grow up remembering the other side. And if someone’s name tag says that they’re in a prison release program a customer might think twice before starting problems XD
