Why tf landlords living from my paycheck to my paycheck?

[–] ilikekeyboards 18 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Because early bird gets the worm (monopoly over houses) and then beggars can't be choosers

As a landlord, can I ask you what are you doing online? You still have money to pay your Internet bill? That's it! From next month I'm rising the month y'all don't need all this luxuries

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Yeah I pay my internet bill too, really justifies the existence of landlords, you're working so hard ticking those rent numbers up

I think OP was being sarcastic

Yes and no. Fascist governments aren't pointing their guns at big companies.

[–] foggy 27 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Idk maybe you're misinterpreting it

People are paycheck to paycheck. We have no recourse.

Landlords are month to month. They'll consume us if they need to make things work.

The banks live bailout to bailout at this point. They'll consume landlords if they need to make things work.

The government lives war to war. They'll consume banks die if they can't find other people that they're stronger than who are playing a similar game with their banks, landlords, and people.

This is why we must consume the rich.

Reverse the cycle! Eat the rich!

Rejoice! Saturnalia is approaching! The eve of the inversion is near! Peasants shall dine as king's on the flesh of the once-royal!

I like this meme format, Triangle was a great movie.

[–] slazer2au 19 points 10 months ago (1 children)

The meme is from person of Interest. A good police procedural from the point of view of a vigilante and his hacker boss.

[–] Izzent 7 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Oh sorry, the scene is very similar to one in Triangle.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Are you talking about the movie theater scene? Or a different movie.

[–] Izzent 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Yes exactly, that's the one!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

I love that movie. And it's so under the radar. I've never seen anyone talk about it until recently.

[–] Izzent 2 points 9 months ago

I love the hidden references to Sisyphus' myth as well.
