Bullshit. You were singing Amish Paradise and we all know it.
I had been listening to Amish Paradise for 10 years before learning that it was actually a parody
Minute after minute, hour after hour?
Hitchin’ up the buggy, churnin’ lots of butter. Raised a barn on Monday, soon I’ll raise another.
Think you’re purely rightous, think you’re pure in heart?
Well I know I’m a million times as humble as thou art
Was it just Amish Paradise or did you not realise that is Weird Al’s thing?
I knew his thing, but it seemed logical to me that he’d occasionally have an original song. I liked his humor, but never actually cared enough to look into it
Dude I wish. Didn’t know what candy cigs were til I was on my 20s, and I learned that the chocolater sells fake chocolate joins. You bet your ass i was pretending to smoke that shit.
Chocolate joints? That’s genius! Not as good as the real deal tho
Unless the chocolate joints are edibles…
Now we’re talking. Edibles > anything else (imo)
Am I the only one thinking how problematic that product is?
I guess ‘think of the children’ only comes up when governments want to ban end-to-end encryption or ask for ID when viewing porn, but everyone is dandy with addictive products advertisements targeted at children such as the one in the meme, gambling in video games, toy companies exploiting children, and more…
It’s an interesting question. I’m not sure what I think.
I would say gambling is more of a child’s game which is made bad for adults by making it about too important because of money. Lots of board games could be considered gambling if they used real money, so I’m not against that.
Definitely against banning end to end encryption.
Kids cigarettes - I had them as a child and thought they were cool, but then I also never took up smoking. I tried it once or twice but that’s it. Never had any desire to actually do it. IMO it probably depends on how you’re raised and your environment. I also watched a bunch of violent movies, but haven’t gotten into a real fight yet and not a violent person.
IMO thinking candy cigarettes cause kids to take up smoking seems similar to thinking GTA causes kids to commit crimes.
What it comes down to for me is that we’re human beings and have brains. If someone is influenced by candy or games to take up smoking, gambling, and crime, then they are dumb as fuck anyway and their parents and teachers have completely failed them. That’s the real problem.
