Bare Feet -- Srs Bsnss

[info]dreamworld
Over on Customers Suck, a poster complains about a shoeless customer coming into the restaurant where they work. In the comments ladygzb doesn't understand what the problem is.

After all, not that long ago, people of no means went barefoot as a matter of course, so why shouldn't she have the right to enter a public place with no shoes. Social conventions are meaningless. Going barefoot flaunts convention the way gay and interracial marriage does!

If your feet have a fungus it's the fault of your shoes! I went barefoot all through college and never caught anything like a fungal infection! In short, shoes are just disgusting and they make my feet hurt anyway.

And people keep on arguing with her.

Would you please look at what they sell?!

[info]luckdragonfujur
In vintage_ads, the LJ community where people post --wait for it!-- vintage ads, [info]amadoj0nes posts a Camel advertising in an entry titled "Behold, a blatantly vaginophallic product mascot!" complete with the following sentence(s).

They sell a product that causes cancer.
They sell a product that causes cancer.
They sell a product that causes cancer.
They sell..a product... that causes.. cancer.
They sell a motherf*#@ing product that causes CANCER.



Mostly, folks' replies tend to be from the CRY MOAR variety, to which dear [info]amadoj0nes answers by repeating what seems to be his signature:

They sell a product that causes cancer.

They sell.. A product... That causes...Cancer.

Help me out here. Any generation younger than mine takes about 5-6 repetitions in order for obvious things to sink in.


And people keep saying CRY MOAR.
