Sadly, it’s not just the US. A whole generation of students here in The Netherlands were made to take loans. They did change it back, but it was in place for 7/8 years. And, as a cherry on top, there was no interest initially. Then a small (~0.5%) interest was added, and now a few days ago they announced that the interest would be five-folded. It sounds too American to be happening here, but sadly it is the truth.

I’m Dutch myself so nope, not assuming so XD
Nevertheless, as a European, it is my continental duty to shit on Americans, which is (partially) why I made the meme :P
No problem, ElPussyKangaroo
Yeah that was my reaction too earlier this morning XD. I believe this post sparked it all: https://sh.itjust.works/post/5513795
Ah, so this is where the memes come from. I was wondering why there were so many in my morning feed XD

For people living in colder regions I can certainly understand that winter is not their favourite season. We only have a little snow in winter - if at all - so the nuisance is minimal.
I feel you as a fellow socially anxious atheist. Thankfully my parents respect my wish not to celebrate, but not everyone is so lucky.
As a biologist I can confirm this 😂
Been a while since I’ve seen that image! Thank you for reminding me of its existence
Amen! Very happy with the app too :)

Memes@lemmy.ml•The state of this platform. Not complaining though!
1·3 years agoYeah same. Tbh I never really understood the whole “dank meme” thing in the first place and I’m happy we’re moving on (or back) to memes that are actually funny.
I’m glad I’m not the only one! Though if I play something for a second time I do tend to up the difficulty a bit.
