They don't make 'em like this anymore
Useless red circle, I know, but in my defense I didn’t put it there, it was already like this when I found it.
This is the sort of smartass thing I would try right before getting bludgeoned to death.
Time to hit the treadmill, or I'm dead.
Time to hit the gym, or my husband is dead.
time to dead, or dead.
Do you even lift, miss?
That's just what the ment told the women he said. They just wanted a piggyback ride
Seems fair. Modern women only want to be carried, it seems.
Estonian style LMAO
The fact that this article has no images is a crime
Americans: uh.. nah.
"Useless red circle" is there to accommodate both the lower attention span and attention to detail of younger generations who have been conditioned with ever increasing faster pace of life.
“Useless red circle” is there to accommodate both the shitty eyesight and impatience of older generations who have been accustomed to everything being handed to them on a silver platter.
Generalizing generations is fucking stupid.
Do I think boomers are materialistic? Yes. Do I think every boomers are handed with everything on silver platters? Ask those who grew up in the 60s and 70s Asia, Africa and Latin America undergoing wars and social turmoil of what they think. Just because your country is part of the WEIRD acronym it doesn't mean the "entitled" boomer stereotype applies to everyone else in the world. My parents certainly had to struggle and grew up in a dictatorship.
Attention span is decreasing in younger folks-- that's the broad consensus. Thanks to the Internet and granting instant gratification. That's just a fact, so deal with it.
I agree that generalising generations can be stupid, but it is though environment don't shape people and culture, huh?
I hate it because I have adhd. Shit like that makes it worse. Makes me feel like cattle.
I'm not just justifying the use of red circle BTW, I'm just explaining as to why it's common these days in the age of Internet.
I wanted to read this comment, but there was no circle showing me the most relevant info...
My wife would take me, instead of complaining that they don’t make them like that anymore why not be the type of person they would want to take?

Yeah wait what? I was like, cool meme until I saw the title
My wife is about half my weight. Guess I'll just get beheaded then.
Women are generally pretty capable of lifting twice their weight. Stand back to back and link arms (you may need to crouch) and if she leans forward and you tense your core and lift your legs you will end up directly over her center of gravity. It's essentially her lifting you like a backack. It isn't a super comfortable lift for the guy in the equation if he's got a weak core but we used to do this all the time at fight night. A teen girl who is maybe 120lbs soaking wet can easily pick up a 6'5 215lbs guy and walk down a city block with him on her back.
In period women were generally muscled as fuck. Fetching household water, hand milling grain for bread and doing laundry were female coded tasks on top of doing whatever yearly hard labour tasks were required. They would absolutely be trucking their favourite guy out of town even if he was big.

Hard labor for survival's sake can put you above even athletes

Is that why we call them ants?
Don't knock it 'till you've tried it.
That's right, men are far to heavy these days.
And here I thought that was made up by the writer of Ever After.
I fucking love Ever After. It's my sick time movie

Absolute shittiest moment to be single...
See back then and for centuries after even: the default mentality for existing was not as zero-sum as it is today.
Resources and generally speaking: 'the world' was seen as expansive and functionally infinite. I.e.: non-zero-sum. One's acquisition of resources did not inherently detract from another's resource. Societies would just exile people and consider them dead and gone into the ether.
So a warlord could easily let some shit like this slide. No fight, free castle.
I'm really hoping this type of thinking comes back after we start to explore the solar system & galaxy.
We could still have this thinking today.
The scarcity of resources is largely one of distribution and access: not production or availability. There are more than enough resources. We destroy clothes and food for going unsold. People go homeless and hungry for lack of money or employment, not a lack of shelter or food. Famines are policy decisions.
Only in the immediacy of natural disaster scenarios where infrastructure itself breaks down are we really faced with the kind of reality where there isn't wasted excess.
If you're interested I suggest an easy but short read: Operation Manual For Spaceship Earth by Buckminster Fuller. It is old as hell but it does a good job of portraying how such a mindset could work for modern civilization.
More crap dumped in /c/memes? Must be Monday...
Yeah a German king during the 12th century, sure, one of the many German kings of that time, like, uh, Hans, or, say, Helmut, yeah why not. Don't tell me it was Conrad III, that little piece of shit was not the real king of the Germans.
Apparently this happened during the Siege of Weinsberg, and the king in question was indeed Conrad III. I must admit not really knowing much (if anything) about the guy but it seems he must have had at least one decent bone in his body, judging by the outcome.
