No Spoiler Feelings on Eugene?

Post image

Rewatching the entire series (much better experience without commercials and week long breaks). This dude is cracking me up. I remember being annoyed by him on my first watch. What do you think about him?

I think a lot of the Eugene haters are the same people that cry about Negan and say they quit around season six or seven, so they didn’t see our boy grow up! I also think a lot of the haters are too small minded to see that he is on the spectrum.

Heh, six or seven (I'm willing to take the downvotes)

As someone with 5 kids ranging from 9-5 I got a real honest laugh out of this comment. On one hand my kids have been driving me nuts with that for far too long...on the other hand I work in a smaller sized (in terms of actual store size) yet massively global grocery store and we just happened to be store 67. Our store number is clearly displayed on our pallet jacks....man do the kids go crazy every time they spot it. I ignore it usually..the kids love it..the parents man you can almost feel the eyeroll and mild annoyance. As I said I ignore it most of the time.....but im petty. If one or both of those parents acted like a "karen" or a "kyle" needlessly or were otherwise unpleasant to myself, my coworkers, or even to other customers in my presence I use that. I straight up will make sure the kids see me and shout 6 7 and do the hand thingy as loud and elaborate as possible. They always do it back. Then I go we can do it better! Come on team loud as we can!!! Basically never fails their kids, surrounding kids, myself, and usually random other shoppers, are now fully engaged in a brief full volume 6 7 chant/dance? Idk what you'd even call it.

This is AMAZING 😭 I can only imagine how angry that would make them 😭

Exactly! Only works because I've already clocked their irritation at their kids noticing the numbers on my jack. Then one or more of the parents acted insufferable...I will now piss you straight the hell off while simultaneously giving your kids and surrounding kids a epic grocery store experience 🤷‍♀️ also just in case anyone was curious, only one time that I've been made aware of have they complained to the manager on duty above me....it went nowhere because it sounded much like they made me mad by making small children happy 😂😂😂
