    If you want to double that emotional damage for Greece, you could call them the Turkish Republic of South Macedonia

    And once they are staring daggers at you, be sure to follow up with calling them ‘typical over-emotional southerners without self control’.

    Perfect way to make new friends /s

    I do similar here. I call Puerto Ricans, Cuban; Cubans, Mexican; and Mexicans, Puerto Rican.

    They fucking hate it. I also live an hour away from Miami, so I get to do it all the time :D

    It’s mostly friends that I fuck with that way, but I do it to strangers from time to time too.

        Oh I assure you, most of them are so racist towards one another that it usually pisses them off. But I don’t mind pissing off racists.

    Why would you antagonize anyone who lives where there’s such delicious food? That’s how you don’t get invited to the cookout.

    It’s so funny to be edgy, people really think you’re a cool person in highschool/college where you run around trying to “trigger” everyone because it’s le funny.

    Shit never changes ig lol

      It is, however, completely level-headed behavior to get all worked up about what is clearly a Bad Advice Cat meme without the cat while assuming that it’s an earnest suggestion.

        I love how you think a text post on this app is somehow getting sooo worked up lmao.

        Being a dick to people isn’t funny and I’m not sorry for posting about my opinion move along bro

          Yeah, you’re replying to a two days old comment because you’re not worked up at all. I’m definitely the one with trouble moving along 😄

          Also, as I already pointed out to you, this isn’t a post suggesting that you should be a dick to people. It’s a post about how that specific thing is a BAD idea to the point of hilarity.

            There’s this crazy thing called notifications, I like to respond to things I have interest in responding in but that doesn’t imply I’m worked up, but keep on with the gas lighting lmao.

            My point is that not everyone is perpetually on the internet and recognizes meme format, so they interpret literally. That’s me trying to convey the full scope of subjective** meaning to you. Just in case you wanna misinterpret that point too.

            See ya dude.
