Why do people even follow you?

it's a legal-themed coffee bar (the first such in the Twin Cities, if you can believe that!) and not to typecast lawyers, but there's a hell of a lot of copy on their site.

Even before I got to the vacuum part, I had a bad feeling. They started with things you can't do.

absolutely not

That’s my favorite cologne scent!

You’re not wrong. But why do they have to be friend shaped?

My shampoo is cedar-scented. Hmm.

I need menswear guy to explain why this is wrong. I love to see men exploring fashion.

Far Side cartoon called jungle apparel. In one panel, labeled Right, a jungle explorer wears functional clothes with no print. In the other panel, labeled Wrong, our guy is wearing functional clothes but now with juicy steaks on the shirt pattern and delicious drumsticks on the shorts.

I’ve spent five minutes trying to form a response. Similar inability to articulate a reply. Let’s go with “I hate them.”

Jess-Icabod Zellers @stellagarp.bsky.social · 3h

I’m so angry

Jess-Icabod Zellers @stellagarp.bsky.social · 11h

Jess-Icabod Zellers @stellagarp.bsky.social · 13h

That’s such a good selection

Jess-Icabod Zellers @stellagarp.bsky.social · 13h

Good choice! I think my non-weird selection would be Kiss Me Like a Stranger
