oh go crawl back under a bridge

The fact that they stated that their logo is a cat shape due to the “bodega cat meme” shows you just how out of touch these douchebros are. It’s not a meme. It’s a real fucking thing that exists in the world. There are cats in bodegas. They provide rodent control. And are also cute.

They invented Walgreens for people like you.

Bodegas tend to be a little more expensive in general than, say, the grocery store. Which is absolutely normal for a convenience store, and is the standard worldwide. These whiny-ass, fearful clowns are just pathetic.

When you say decided to make the logo of your company a cat in a “nod to the popular bodega cat meme,” can you hear yourself?

UGH. As a city parent, I cannot overstate the importance of corner stores to healthy communities. Corner stores (we don’t really call them bodegas and the owners are usually Palestinian) serve as the grandmas for the neighborhood. The corner stores keep an eye out, and they sweep the sidewalk, and they lend you a…

How is this more convenient than a vending machine? You literally need to download a proprietary app before you use it.

The city’s permanent residents should really adjust to the needs of the casual, pants-pissing visitor.

I teach the youths at the university. One of the great moments of any semester is when one of the youths, bolstered by the confidence and ignorance of the aforementioned youth and complete lack of background research, decides to tell me about their invention that will change the world. Much, much more often than…

you think Bodegas are ...“terrifying?” I’m going to need you to elaborate what it is about bodegas that gives you anxiety.

As opposed to a tiny box of random pre-selected shit that will come with an even higher markup? Yeah.

99% of tech startups now-a-days are just fancy versions of things that already exist.

“Terrifying to go into”?

You’re a weak person who should stay out of cities, then.

I just love to see Gawker-bros falling all over each other to demonize what they see as Gentrification, while these same folks will protest predatory pricing by these very same bodegas.

It’s very conceivable that one wouldn’t know dangling from a rope would cause rope burns and cuts.

Get the fuck out of here with this bullshit. Fourteen years olds know not to murder people.

Then you were a rare excellent pre-teen.

Exactly. Maybe it’s due to knowing that I, a young black girl (at the time, aged 14) was very cognizant of the disadvantages (from society and from the judicial system) that I was saddled with, knew not to do any “dumb shit” like... I don’t know... Trying to hang a smaller child. Plus, there’s that “empathy” thing…

Don’t you put that evil on us. LePage is the governor of Maine, while New Hampshire’s governor is someone who isn’t him.
