Put your shopping bags down? Plan ahead?

I swear to god, you people are so intensely lazy. It is not in any way worth it, the damage these glasses for the mentally impotent are currently causing isn’t worth it and it will never be worth it. You’re acting like if I sent you back to 2002 you’d fucking die in three-to-five business days.

So pathetic.
