The speak English to those that speak with an accent can come about because some people have a very hard time with accents. Especially as they get older. My mom has a very hard time understanding a someone from the Middle East who is speaking English. It’s not that she is racist it’s that’s she older and her ears are wearing out. My dad is the same way. My mom is more patient when dealing with people who have a strong accent. My dad… less so.

I worked with my dad and got him to understand that it’s not that they aren’t speaking English… it’s that they have a strong accent. I at least got him to stop saying “speak English “ . It’s a small step.

My point is: talk to your grandpa and see if he has a hard time understanding the accent.

The rest of it, ask why he doesn’t like travel. Is he afraid of crime or what is it. Maybe you can show him the truth

Good question but no just ringing

Pizza can do it. But I haven’t really payed attention to which toppings

LA is not a country nor is Seattle

That contrast part where somebody says they’re going to town and they could grab one for you, and then supposedly you’re supposed to say no that’s OK.

I’ve literally never heard that. I’m over 50 years old. I’ve never heard of that statement. If somebody offered to do something nice for you and you can use the item. Why are you saying no? Say thank you. Tell them make sure you grab the receipts that way I can get you the money or give them the money in advance.

I’ve never heard of this concept of oh no that’s OK. Don’t put yourself out. Why are you doing that? What now you have to drive into town and spend your money when they were already in town? This makes no sense. Make sure you pay them and probably toss them a little extra cash for having made the trip and the effort.

Why would you say no? Again I’ve never heard of this concept.

What state do you live in?

I’ve never even heard of declining the first one.

I was raised if you offer something to someone and they say no. Then the answer is no. Don’t bug them.

I’m over fifty btw

Never heard of the concept of the have to offer three times. I’ve lived in Minnesota my entire life. I’ve never heard of this.

Look at the comments from others in this thread and it will give you a good idea that this isn’t just a knee jerk reaction

I’m not sure what you mean by center button. The bottom center button says lemmy.world and I see nothing in there that covers the info

Realistically only Congress or the Supreme Court can stop him and no they aren’t going to. Beyond that, as others have said it is just standing in the street and yelling. But that won’t stop him.

When you get fur in your cheese you might be having a bad day

some people don’t enjoy kissing and others just haven’t had a good kissing partner

Just find a red haired girlfriend. They tend to be quite wild. <— that’s a quote from my cousin, and yes she has red hair
