    I bought my wife pregnancy clothing, and found out I’m having a girl!

      For a moment, I was confused why you would buy your wife pregnant clothing before you knew she was pregnant with a girl.

      Actually, technically she’s having the girl. You get to be the pet dad. At least that’s how it works with mine.

      I got many tikits today from her. I got a sitting down tikit, a standing up tikit, a moving tikit, a tikit just for being daddy. Once I corrected her spelling I started getting tickets for other imaginary violations. And then she was done.

        Yeah my son had this. He loves putting them together, but they fall apart so easily even after they increased their prices to compensate for their longer lasting builds.

        Just a bit overpriced nowadays imo.

    Goodness gracious, the way everybody on Lemmy claims to be anti-capitalist, the majority of answers better be “nothing”.

      Well, my answer is nothing, and as anyone who follows me knows, seeing me not buy any random novelty cutlery trash from China has certainly got to count for something.

      a ton of users don’t claim to be anti-capitalist.

      being anti-capitalist is performative outside of those who are living off grid or dumpster diving anyway.

      It’s far more pathetic to set a deadline for your boycott than to buy something on black friday. You think your boycott has a meaning if you’re that sad about it?

      I’ve been boycotting all big companies for a year nonstop and your group can barely do it for a week before crying and just buying anyways

        Hey dumbfuck

        Its a general community boycott meant to specifically boycott black Friday and cyber Monday. Its part of larger boycotts, but specifically meant to boycott these events in particular.

        And its a national boycott, not “my boycott”.

        Go fuck yourself.
