Took me a second too, but it's supposed to be a list of descriptors of the woman in the picture. A better way to form it would be "She uses drugs, but she is also a wife, a coworker, and a grandmother." with the last three as bullet points.

[-] vaguerant@fedia.io 23 points 10 months ago

It's marginally less confusing when you see the whole series instead of just this one grandmother poster. Each one has a list of bullets describing a person, with the one thing they all have in common being "Uses drugs".

Is that really all they could come up with is marriage and employment status? FFS, these are people, way to miss the assignment.

Goes to church every Sunday

loves her grandkids

Uses drugs

Retired CNA

[-] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 5 points 10 months ago

That's how we often identify others

[-] misterdoctor@lemmy.world 10 points 10 months ago

How I introduce myself as well. “Hello! Man. Father. Uses drugs. Retired bus driver.”

[-] Cris_Color@lemmy.world 8 points 10 months ago

That makes so much more fucking sense, thank you lol

[-] Hadriscus@lemm.ee 2 points 10 months ago

Phew, thank you

Translation: “respectable property-owning white boomers also use drugs, and shouldn’t be lumped in with hippies, gangbangers and morally degenerate hedonists”

[-] outhouseperilous@lemmy.dbzer0.com 24 points 10 months ago

As a morally degenerate hippie adjacent criminal, i really support not being lumped in wuth those people.

[-] NoForwardslashS@sopuli.xyz 27 points 10 months ago

Is the stigma around incorrect use of bullet points? I'd rather keep that one going.

[-] Deceptichum@quokk.au 11 points 10 months ago

Right, like why is there a tiny bullet point sitting on the floor after “Stop stigma”?

[-] phorq@lemmy.ml 5 points 10 months ago

Common misconception, that's actually a half-colon (not to be confused with semicolons or colon type-c)

[-] outhouseperilous@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 10 months ago

Whoever made it probably learned to shoot from a cop.

[-] Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 22 points 10 months ago

Actually this is Durham region. A county near Toronto.

It's for opiates, now I'm imagining grandma sitting on her knitting chair shooting up heroin with her group.

[-] Maerman@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

Wait. Does this mean I've been a real boy all this time?

[-] DasFaultier@sh.itjust.works 3 points 10 months ago

Yes Pinocchio.

[-] harrys_balzac@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 10 months ago

Am I having a stroke?

[-] weird@sub.wetshaving.social 16 points 10 months ago

It's probably drugs

[-] harrys_balzac@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 10 months ago

I should probably figure out what I took and get more then.

[-] SplashJackson@lemmy.ca 5 points 10 months ago

I like Durham Region, I go to visit and everyone's wives and grandmothers are on drugs.

And that's just alright by me

[-] wowwoweowza@lemmy.world -1 points 10 months ago

So… are we asking for a world with zero stigma? Like against jay walking, shoplifting, infidelity?

I like graffiti but I don’t want is EVERYWHERE?

[-] 4am@lemm.ee 4 points 10 months ago

Why she look like the racist mom from Hotel Transylvania 2?

[-] dwindling7373@feddit.it 4 points 10 months ago

I'm confused by your confusion.

Something that people perceive as a negative trait.

Is this real? It has been twenty years since I moved away from Durham region but this dumpster fire of an ad does not surprise me at all.
