.... like do they think cheap knockoff sunglasses from a gas station make them look cool? Its got some weird 14 year old boy energy.

How else do you attract 14yr old boys?

[–] Funky_Beak@lemmy.sdf.org 5 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Well thats a terrifying revelation.

On at least two different levels

My dad is the coolest most scrappiest Appalachian mountain man who managed to escape the cult of republicanism 2 decades ago. This is one remnant, those damn sunglasses, from those days, and I try not to judge but I do cringe a bit. He fucking despises Trump and Republicans, mind you.

Like sunglasses can be cool. I despise richard nixon but having a bunch of dudes in wayfarers behind him in his speeches did look cool. Maybe your dad would like to embrace the wayfarer look?

No no, they make up the cool by taking a picture from the drivers seat of their 12 year old Ford Escape.

It's cause that's when they peaked.

It's when they peaked mentally, too.
