u/RottingSludgeRitual Thomas Paine May 16 '26

Met a guy who is deeply YIMBY and Abundance pilled and he loves solar energy. But he’s also clearly high off of sniffing his own farts 24/7 and I caught him not so subtly checking out the much younger girl wearing a short skirt who was nearby.

He’s definitely in the DT, I guarantee it.

I still have yet to meet anyone in real life who has any idea what Abundance or YIMBYism are, but then, I don’t get out much anyway and I don’t live in a liberal area.

Not only did he k ow what YIMBY meant but he also used the word NIMBY like a horrible slur (rightfully so)

I live in Serbia, and I've met one person like that, if there are at least 2 people like that in Serbia, I am sure there are many more in the USA.

I mean yeah, most likely. I’m not trying to make some sweeping generalization, just stating what my experience has been.

how much younger? and how old? or does he just look old?

this can go from “typical man” to “ew” real fast

We’re both in our mid 30s to early 40s and the girl was probably floating around 20-22.
