This guy called a conservative radio show and listed names of punk bands.

“One of my main problems is… I’m a Republican in a fairly liberal area, sometimes I feel like everyone is just Against Me!,” Dobi began, talking to host Liz Gabert. “I feel like what we need to do is listen to what our Descendents told us. ​’Cause in the past we Refused to live a Life Of Agony. I’m Sick Of It All. Im sick of people thinking we’re just a Minor Threat. Enough of that Fugazi. A lot of these people just got Bad Brains, that are Misfits that waive Black Flag and they’re practically Anti-Flag. I think we need to Converge and help the Youth Of Today because every time you blink, 182 kids, they go missing…”

Only vid I could find was from the guy on shitter, sorry

...they're gonna have to deal with the Fallout, Boy

That ending was way too good

[–] dreugeworst@lemmy.ml 14 points 1 year ago

Omg they even got reel big fish in there

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

Ok this is the pure essence of trolling

I've met way too many people who think schools have litter boxes for furries, so nobody would question a dog playing basketball.

[–] FilthyShrooms@lemmy.world 16 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I mean, it doesn't say a dog can't play basketball in the rulebook, so why would anyone question it?

[–] Silentiea@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

They seriously haven't updated the rulebook? It's been a quarter century!

[–] SpruceBringsteen@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

I'm going to start spreading this.

"I said it makes no difference to me but a dog can't play basketball, but the woke lib ref says there ain't no rule says a dog can't play."

Air Bud was Disney I think so they probably don’t let their family watch.

[–] Beefytootz@lemmy.world 35 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Different time. Air bud came out in 97. This was well before "woke" was a thing conservatives thought they were afraid of. 9/11 didn't happen yet. America was a very different place and America loved Disney. This would have been watched by a lot of gen x, both on the early end as parents, and on the late end as children. Millennials have seen it for sure, myself being one of them. I think the odds are pretty high that someone would catch on sooner rather than later.

[–] doingthestuff@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

I'm genx and have never seen it. Nothing to do with Disney but my wife and I quit our movie theater jobs right before that cane out and it took years for me to be able to pay to watch movies again after that. Years of free movies, private showings, etc had spoiled us.

[–] FakeGreekGirl@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Gen X was born before around 82, I think, so they were probably a bit old for Air Bud to be a childhood movie in 97. Definitely the older ones might have watched it with their kids, though.

As a younger Gen X, my memory of Air Bud is a young cousin giving me a long-winded description of the movie at Thanksgiving, but I never actually watched it lol

[–] Beefytootz@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

That's more so what I was meaning, my father's gen x from the early side and watched it with us as kids, including my older brother who's on the tail end of gen x. I guess it really does come down to proximity to millenials

[–] TheFresh16@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

If only Disney and Fox Corporation had something in common

[–] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 33 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I want to spread this rumour in conservative Facebook groups. They'd all fall for it.

[–] pythonoob@programming.dev 17 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Something something litter boxes

[–] vinceman@lemmy.blahaj.zone 14 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Got yelled at by my boss this morning for saying "we're in a province that just legislation in banning pronoun changes in schools without parental consent, does it seem likely there are litter boxes in schools". Fuck this province

[–] lseif@sopuli.xyz 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

"our school outlawed children using nicknames, and there hasnt been one knife crime!"

[–] pythonoob@programming.dev 5 points 1 year ago

I wouldn't have been able to go by Goku when I was a kid with law like that. What is this shit.

[–] ProgrammingSocks@pawb.social 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)
[–] vinceman@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 year ago

Even worse actually.

[–] CileTheSane@lemmy.ca 27 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It would take until Faux News aired the story and people started to make fun of them for it.

[–] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 20 points 1 year ago

Nah - if they were to even acknowledge it being fake they'd say "but it does happen in other schools"

[–] vanderbilt@beehaw.org 24 points 1 year ago

Let’s be real they wouldn’t notice at all lol

[–] tacosplease@lemmy.world 16 points 1 year ago

After the Supreme Court ruling declaring a dog, in fact, cannot play basketball.

[–] Bleach7297@lemmy.ca 14 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Bleach7295 fun fact: I used to think it was said 'tangenitally.' But that's actually what you get on a nudist beach or something.

This has been a Bleach7293 fun fact.

[–] zip@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 1 year ago

I enjoyed that Bleach7293 fun fact! Thank you for that
