minus-square@Potatos_are_not_friends@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish88•1 year agoMy 27yo incel nephew during the holidays had a hissy fit and called me a beta and really put himself in the alpha seat. Which was weird, because I picked him up from my sister’s house, drove him here, and also had to drop him back off as a favor to my sister. I dunno what internet or what he thinks alphas are but oooof.
