          I don’t think you normally kiss a stranger on New Year’s.

            Just tacking my load onto this post. In my bachor years, New Years was one of the only times I had an issue being single. Valentines, no big deal. Being in a room where everyone is suddenly getting action instead of you? That shit stung.

            According to the most normal leftist that started that thread last New Years, if you don’t kiss a stranger, you’re embarrassing leftism. grillman corona

                  The final form of being obsessed with optics.

                    BUT damn that sounds like it was a wild post.

                    The user that posted it, as far as I can recall, never showed up again, unless they were one of the mysterious accounts that woke up (some new, some with months of post history gaps before that) in the hours and days that followed after just to howl with rage and bully “shut-ins” that didn’t like the message.
