Only America can steal data appearently. Everyone else is a terrorist.

Not ordinary Americans. That's piracy, which is a form of terrorism. Only the wealthiest asshole Americans can steal data.

How dare you call me a pedon, I am a PEON.

People these days have no respect.

[–] sunzu2@thebrainbin.org 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yeah no doubt... People call me a pleb but I am a pedon

[–] supersquirrel@sopuli.xyz 4 points 1 week ago

Don't let ANYBODY ever call you a pleb, I know and you know that in your heart you are a pedon.

Nahh pedon but similar meaning

[–] floofloof@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

What is a pedon? The dictionary says it's a soil sample.

[–] sunzu2@thebrainbin.org 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)
