one of my favourite lines in the office which i never see anyone mention is at the casino night party when jimâs at the bar and ryan comes up to order and says, âiâll have one beer⌠and one 7 and 7 with eight maraschino cherries and sugar around the rimâ and jim goes âso thatâs still going on, huhâÂ
how can people be so rude and donât feel bad afterwards⌠When I donât say thank you or donât smile back Iâll think about it for 3 months straight and have flashbacks
Hereâs a thought, maybe peopleâs growing irreverence for 9/11 is because it was a long time ago and younger generations werenât as affected by it, or maybe they are so sick of the way it has been basically commercialised by politicians and used as a device to justify incalculable pain and they are tired of it being cynically trotted out every year and told to never forget while every year they are also told to all but ignore mass shootings and US humanitarian crimes.
And like, I dunno, maybe it isnât about disrespecting those who died but refusing, for any number of reasons, to be a part of the governmental hallmark industry that has built up around it.
