I usually assume this kind of thing is a staged bit for social media/virality.

[–] zaphod@sopuli.xyz 3 points 1 day ago

It's definitely done for social media virality, whether it's made up or not.

[–] Fredselfish@lemmy.world 9 points 2 days ago

This shit fake and staged for internet points.

Reminded me of Jerry Springer

This gets better the longer you look:

  • McCheatin
  • blonde girl grinning
  • socks pulled up to the knees
  • wife possibly drunk?
  • third wheel reevaluating life choices
  • they ordered happy meals?
[–] echodot@feddit.uk 3 points 1 day ago

The best bit is the fact that they even had time to make the sign means he goes to McDonald's a lot. He managed to cheat on his wife with a woman who reckons that constantly going to McDonald's is a good night out. What.

[–] hansolo@lemmy.today 26 points 2 days ago

Also what I was wondering! Happy Meals?! Halloween bucket ones... Sure, maybe. But still.

[–] Broadfern@lemmy.world 21 points 2 days ago

Blonde is grinning because she’s finally vindicated lmao. Betting she’s wife’s sister or best friend*

Genuine question: are hi socks back out? I don't really understand why those made a comeback.

[–] WalleyeWarrior@midwest.social 18 points 2 days ago

I only wear high socks since they stay up better, but I also would never wear shorts in public

[–] Cort@lemmy.world 9 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Slightly warmer if you're planning to wear shorts all winter.

Comfort is my lifestyle

[–] mrgoosmoos@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

yes, ankle socks are millenial identifiers

idc, they're still better for most of my time (if they fit properly). they pack smaller, are lighter, don't get covered in gunk that I can easily wipe off my leg but make a mess of the fabric, and don't pull at my leg hair weirdly every now and then. also, like, I don't need to keep more heat in, I already run hot as it is

obvs there are still appropriate situations to use higher socks, such as wearing 6"+ boots, tick prevention, cold weather, etc

edit: I just want to add that I don't even wear socks in my flops flops when I shovel the driveway, so, my opinion should be considered with that context

[–] Gerudo@lemmy.zip 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Yes, and for some reason, even with sandals

[–] Clent@lemmy.dbzer0.com 0 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I love people who gate keep sandals and socks. It's such a stupid thing to get upset about and I'm grateful for people using it as it outs them as loud mouth idiots.

[–] Gerudo@lemmy.zip 0 points 1 day ago (1 children)

First off, I'm not gate keeping them, I just find it odd. 2nd, Im not upset about it. Breath for a second, please. It used to be a huge stereotype that old guys were the only ones who would wear socks with sandals. Now it's trendy.

Typically, I wear sandals if it's hot out or somewhere I want easy access to bare feet, like the beach. I don't understand wearing such an open shoe, then covering your feet.

[–] Clent@lemmy.dbzer0.com 0 points 1 day ago

It doesn't matter if you do it. I just think it's funny in general how people do it.

Like who cares what old men wear? Why question someone over clothes. It's just so weirdly funny to be proud about having different ideas on clothe choices.

Could just me, I really could not care less about fashion.

[–] dream_weasel@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 day ago

The happy meals are the best part.

[–] tacosanonymous@mander.xyz 7 points 2 days ago (3 children)

WTF is that cross shoulder thing he’s wearing? Does it have a teddy bear charm?

[–] SinningStromgald@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago (2 children)

It is a cross body bag of some sort. Otherwise known as a "murse".

[–] Dashi@lemmy.world 3 points 2 days ago

Manny pack was my first thought. Saw a ticktock about them some time ago

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world -1 points 2 days ago

Idk what's up with his. Not fashionable at all.

[–] jodanlime@midwest.social 5 points 2 days ago

I think that might be a labooboo, not an expert though.

[–] Stalinwolf@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

This image has the same vibes as those valiant soldier on an airplane videos, giving up their metal folding chair for a pregnant woman so she can sit closer to the crooked LED strip lighting along the tiled floor.

[–] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Oh man I despise those virtue-signaling apocryphal stories and images.

All these suck-ups fawning over the story representing a “real man” and “real service” and always taking cheap shots at the scapegoats of “millennials” or whatever generation and probably libs too because those godless scapegoats haven’t an ounce of work ethic or courtesy in their bones. Then the train of people inserting their own time in the military in their comments “this is how real soldiers do it!” just begging for worshippers to thank them for their service.

Heaven help you if you point out any glaring and major errors in the story that make it untrue. Like “Sergeant Abraham Lincoln didn’t serve in the Vietnam War bombing the commies with an F16 while wearing a top hat!”…because it doesn’t matter. They reply that story is good and we should worship our soldiers, how can you be so negative? Do you hate soldiers or something? You must be one of those commie libs!

Fuck, these people are infuriating.
