Ever seen girl math?

“If I preload my Starbucks account with $25 and I go to Starbucks the following week, my order was free.”

“Spending money abroad doesn’t count because it’s a different currency.”

Things aren’t mathing as they should.

Stupid people standing on soapboxes saying stupid shit.

Back in my day, people had to dedicate years of their life before they were given the opportunity to stand in front of hundreds of people and tell them things.

Brutha - they call it standing on a soapbox for a reason. And soapboxes havent physically been a thing for a real long time. Wait’ll you bear about “stumping”.

Anecdotally, I’ve only heard women use that sort of argument IRL. Kinda falls in the, “This widget is 80% so I’m saving money!”

Well, no, not if you didn’t have to purchase the widget in the first place.

Men are hardly immune, but in my experience it’s more so women.

As I recently learned,

“If I return clothes to the store (store credit), but then buy new clothes (using that store credit), those new clothes are free. (No new money spent)”
