Forget both of them, I want to hear from the dude who showed up to the presidential event in the bucket hat

He left a funny custom blown glass pipe at my place in the early aughts and I've been trying to get it back to him. But also been using it in the meantime so not in any rush. Who are we talking about again?
And Vivek has a dude in a college football hoodie behind him lol. It's like a photo op for each side.
On that Bez grindset
Bez has actually ran as an MP
Oh yeah, I remember that!
I think that's the lead singer of the Spin Doctors
Two insufferable nerdlingers you'd push into a locker.
2004 huh? I wonder if was on campus at the time
These two will be our choices in 2028.
Mr. Patrick Henry, I think I'll take the Death option, now. Thank you.
Step. Away. From. The. Lathe.
There's an education system for the ruling class and an education system for the working class.
As someone that got a scholarship to the "ruling class education system" in high school, it really sucks ass. The people there are just evil, the schools (especially the all boys or all girls schools with boarding) are rife with abuse, and most of my peers were spoilt little shits.
I currently share a workplace with people who went to expensive private schools and they're like a different species. One of my coworkers told me she saw nothing wrong with blackface, since their school theater did it all the time when there were black characters because there weren't any black students to play the roles.
Also some of them had like Guatemalan slaves who'd bring them lunch or drive them around. Also they had stuff like a bowling alley and a full sized movie theater.
My high school barely had plumbing that worked.
It really is a different world for them.
Shit happened to me as a kid too. Only got into the elite school because of my athletics. I was the only non-white kid for five years in a country that's 95% brown.
Me it was academics. I live in South Africa, so it's actually the inverse, the school was mostly white similar to how it is in your story, but I was the only white kid in the scholarship programme lol.
most of my peers were spoilt little shits.
I want the memory eraser pill
Knew someone that got a super expensive AMG Mercedes for their 18th birthday as their first car. Just incredible.
Even if I was a little prick, at least I wasn’t that bad. I knew someone that got an airplane. Not a model, an actual “go VFR into IMC and end up in a smoldering crater in a parking lot, killing yourself and your friends” airplane. Which he eventually did.
I swear to god the early 2000s was the death of fashion, utter wasteland of horrors
The concept of a "metrosexual" was introduced, which was apparently a heterosexual man, but he... Showered every once in a while? 00's sucked
Worst modern decade for everything vibeswise
A decade of good scifi and not much else
And on the flipside all the colourful outfits from then just looked super unfitting/ didn't match. See the women with neon yellow tank or crop tops combined with denim shorts or a skirt and fishnet stockings.
I just searched 2000s fashion on Google and already got like 5 matching results to that lol.
But at least that was better than mens fashion back then, men's fashion was absolute trash in the 2000s
Was my main takeaway as well, absolutely dire
The sad part is that so many aging millennials, even some on hexbear, are always reminiscing about that shitty era.
The aughts sucked total ass, show me to these “people”
00s culture seemed like a backlash to both the depressing minimalism of the late 90s and also 9/11 (I regard the 90s as two separate culture epochs, early and late 90s)
We go through periods of everyone being sad and then everyone being vibrant and happy
George Michael Bluth spotted, circa 2004.
Of all the people that deserved to get tased in 2004...
Is something wrong with me if I first red "White Mouse" instead of "White House" on the pics and for a split second I thought it was gonna be about Stuart Little?
no there's something wrong with the world that it wasn't a battle for the white mouse
These people are so forgettable it almost doesn't occur to me that they were alive before their political campaigns. So far as I can tell, they crumble into dust the moment they cease being immediately relevant
Young Pete looks like Rittenhouse.
I just realized that Pete Buttigieg looks exactly like Michel Cera
Quirky teen comedy about being embarrassed by your Marxist dad
Pete was about 22 there and Vivek was about 20. Pete's boyish appearance even today kind of creeps me out, given what an absolute ghoul he is.
Wait, who's Slavoj Vivek again? Wasn't he like, uhm, kinda white?
I think you're confusing with Slavoj Zizek. Idk whi Vivek is tho
Vivek Ramaswamy is a republican presidential candidate
I mean with Zizek's pro Ukraine shit and other weird takes, are they really that different?
