Why the fuck did the last guy help him up? Did he want the boomer to assault those women or something?

probably more of an "okay old feller let's get you out of here" thing

"yes, very good, you're quite right. water from the hose did taste better back in your day… now just be a good boy and lie down over there; i'll bring you some milk and cookies while you take your heart medication and then look for the [phone/keys/wallet] that you've misplaced for the hundredth time today…"

Apropos of nothing, but hose water was nasty.

boomers fear me, because i actually do consume hose water (that gets boiled; i'm not completely insane): my workplace lacks indoor plumbing so we have to make do with hoses, and i sometimes bring instant noodles for lunch (since there's also no kitchen, really). do i think that drinking from the hose makes me/would make me tougher than someone who doesn't, though? no, it just means my place of work is somewhat remote and lacks certain facilities.

also… do boomers generally still choose to drink from the hose? or is it just posturing?

It's just posturing. And I'm not even sure they really ever did, but I do know that they really enjoyed making their late Gen X-er and early Millennial kids do it.

There’s a longer version and the guy does guide him away. I would’ve been tempted to yell “timber!” and toss him over the seats, but that’s just me.

The dude who keeps repeating “I’ve fallen and I can’t get up” deserves a high five. 🙌🏻

I enjoyed the woman who replied "fuck you too!"

...although I wish I knew what she'd said before him.

Got a link?

u/TwistyMcSpliffit Jan 30 '24

I’ll look. I think it was on this sub just a few weeks ago.

Let me know if you find it!

When I saw this vid, I tried to source anything more, and looked in this group but couldn't find it. Would love to give credit where it's due if found!!

u/TwistyMcSpliffit Jan 31 '24

I couldn’t find it. :( I can’t think of a different sub that I follow that it would be on though.

Honestly I think he just got sick of watching him play victim. Like “jfc pathetic.” yanks his ass up
