Actually Walmart does not allow it, but most stores don’t care. My local one had a guy unalive himself in his car surrounded by other multi day parked cars. It took them 3 days to see all the others cars leave and he was inside. So now they enforce it. Understandably so.

Why say "unalive" here on lemmy?

[–] lath 24 points 7 months ago

It has to do with property and liability. All digital landowners including Lemmy, Mastodon and other social media work very hard to make sure they don't get sued by lazy users 'unaliving' themselves looking to sue for perceived damages and or promoting illegal content by their presehahahaha im just fucking with you but could you imagine some fucking boomer writing something like this

Culture behaves like a gas and expands to fill any space it is provided with

it's Gen Z slang, might have started as evading censors but it's just how they talk now, just like OK started as a joke abbreviation but now everyone says it unironically

Huh, only place I've seen/heard it is in Vault Hunters which definitely isn't made by Gen Z. That may be where they got it though. Hard to say as I've never heard anybody use it irl.
