People tweeting stuff. We allow tweets from anyone.

RULES:

  1. Mark NSFW content.
  2. No doxxing people.
  3. Must be a pic of the tweet or similar. No direct links to the tweet.
  4. No international politcs
  5. Be excellent to each other.
  6. Provide an archived link to the tweet (or similar) being shown if it's a major celebrity, figure or any politician. If you replace the "x" at their site with xcancel (so it beomes xcancel.com), and you're not on mobile, it will save video. https://web.archive.org/save is another great option. Archive.is is no longer recommended because they remove/alter content.
  7. If a tweet (or similar) makes a statement of fact, either mark it as "satire" in the body or provide the original source link backing up the statement

What? I'm not OP, but I'm pretty sure they're just stating why they don't use it.

Why are you assigning their logic to what they think of others?

So to your question, I say: they never said it was their business.

Enjoy your down votes. I'll give you and upvote just to try to equal the scales slightly. Good luck.

they're defending the use of self-check out lanes, which were introduced as a cost saving feature for the benefit of retail stores- not their consumers.

They are more than welcome to use the checkout lanes for the reasons they gave, but others- myself included- chose not to. I don't think any one cares about whether or not a retailer has to hire more employees. at least nobody reasonable.

You do whatever. I like them when I have just a few items because it saves time and social interaction.

I'm with you. Too many opinions all up in here.
