Holy tone policing. Please continue trying to change the way people speak and getting irrationally angry when they don’t give a fuck, because that totally doesn’t make you hysterical.

This is how you got Trump.
The people who don’t know what “bodegas” are aren’t going to see this product in their (small-ass) cities.
Lol. You obviously don’t live in a large city, which is where these stores tend to be. They are really popular in my city, which isn’t even that big. Does the fact that people in rural America won’t be affected by this the same way city folks (most importantly, the bodega owners) will be, make this stupid app any less…
They are specifically targeting minority-owned (often immigrant-owned) small business owners, and using the term “bodega,” pretending that it is not offensive to put these people out of business and then use the Spanish term to describe the vending machine they think can replace actual humans.
8 million New Yorkers certainly do. People in Philadelphia do. This idea is not only laughably dumb in its delusions of grandeur about a vending machine, but purposely targeting small business owners who are mostly minorities and often immigrants.
“Eventually, centralized shopping locations won’t be necessary, because there will be 100,000 Bodegas spread out, with one always 100 feet away from you.”
Not wrong at all. Also, none of these stupid machines are gonna make your drunk ass a cheeseburger deluxe at 4am.
And where will they put the payphone that lets you call anywhere in Latin America for 49 cents a minute?
Just stick ‘em in places white people already go. Like Fourbucks and Panera Bread.
This white person jumped over “sketchy” right onto “terrifying”!!
“Most corner stores are dirty, over-priced, lack variety, and frankly are terrifying to go into”
The city’s permanent residents should really adjust to the needs of the casual, pants-pissing visitor.
But in Japan they have vending machines for everything - and still have stores. I feel like the US as a whole is way behind on convenience.
CONGRATULATIONS, ASSHOLES, YOU INVENTED THE VENDING MACHINE.
You’re a weak person who should stay out of cities, then.
At least Elvis actually had some talent (also wasn’t he quite open about that his music style had roots in African American Blues and that he thought they were much better than he was?).
And that’s when a big MLS payday was minimum wage and a per diem.
To be fair, Lalas quit playing on a middling European side for a big MLS payday before it was cool.
Meanwhile in DC...Ben Olsen nods, goes back to United practice, yells at everyone to play harder, smiles at his brilliance.
