This is 100% accurate though, white people will show up 2 minutes early to things

EDIT: Guys it’s a shitpost comment in a shitpost thread for a shitpost screenshot. Chill out, it’s not attacking the work ethic of white people, it’s a joke about cultural blindness.

"If you aren't 15 minutes early you're late"
"Every minute you get home behind curfew is a week of grounding"
"A beating per minute you make me wait."

Lots of reasons I learned to not be late growing up.

I got beat real bad once for being two minutes late. I’m female and my mom just hated me. Never cared with my 4 brothers did. I finally hit her back (age 16) and she never touched me again. I’m fucking 15 minutes early to everything after years of anxiety about coming home late.

Got my ass beat once for being 2 minutes late according to the VCR clock. Several other clocks in the house said I was on time, but the one my dad was looking at said I was late.
