Why is the walking buddy holding hands? Are they letting you know Kevin is single and ready to mingle?

[–] Earflap@reddthat.com 2 points 2 hours ago

Ah yes, the escort service.

[–] RymrgandsDaughter@lemmy.world 2 points 3 hours ago

About to rent me one

[–] rumba@lemmy.zip 19 points 7 hours ago

You know... There's a lot of women that wouldn't dare to walk alone at night. That white Kevin has been vetted by Uber and has a paper trail.

How about not just a white Kevin but an Armed Stacey, or a security guard Michelle.

of course, it'd probably cost MORE to get someone to walk with you because they'd have to not only drive there and walk but walk back.

[–] xia@lemmy.sdf.org 6 points 5 hours ago

"Drop off" makes it sound like he'll carry you.

[–] robocall@lemmy.world 2 points 5 hours ago

I would like this

[–] towelie@lemm.ee 27 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

For $7.50 I'd unironically use a walking buddy at least once

[–] stoicmaverick@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

For safety in numbers, or talk therapy?

[–] ERROR_100_000_100@infosec.pub 78 points 1 day ago (4 children)

I know this is a parody, but:

In the US, you might soon need a white "walking buddy" when they re-instate Jim Crow laws, because you wouldn't be allowed to travel without a white man leading the group.

[–] justme@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

I have some friends who have the same problem all their love because they are women.

[–] LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world -1 points 9 hours ago (2 children)

Why substitute the word "life" or "lives" with "love?"

[–] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 5 points 7 hours ago

It's called a typo.

[–] AngryCommieKender@lemmy.world 5 points 9 hours ago

Probably a typo. I and O, and F and V are pretty close on a phone keyboard.

[–] nectar45@lemmy.zip 24 points 1 day ago

"I will be right there, I am just 3 white guys away from that place"

[–] AlecSadler@sh.itjust.works 16 points 1 day ago

Honestly in some areas of town late at night, I would totally make use of a service like this...

...but I'd also expect the service be abused by people seeking people to harass.

[–] kcweller@feddit.nl 40 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I feel awfully called out as a 1994 white Kevin...

[–] grrgyle@slrpnk.net 7 points 8 hours ago

Hahaha white Kev never can catch a break

[–] JeSuisUnHombre@lemm.ee 227 points 1 day ago (6 children)

Honestly this is a great joke but also could legitimately be a good service for someone who didn't feel safe walking alone, or needs help navigating

[–] biscuitswalrus@aussie.zone 2 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

You're right, this is a great services for predators to register.

[–] SouthEndSunset@lemm.ee 2 points 6 hours ago

It’s a great idea. This is the shit side of it.

[–] Cyclist@lemmy.world 139 points 1 day ago (9 children)

A lot of university campuses have this. It's a good idea.

[–] chiliedogg@lemmy.world 2 points 11 hours ago

My school had a number you could call and they'd dispatch a golf cart with 2 student workers to take you anywhere on campus for free, 24/7 (minus holidays and breaks when University offices were cosed).

[–] barneypiccolo@lemm.ee 15 points 20 hours ago

I found out in my senior year, that my campus had been plagued by a serial rapist for several years, going back to before i was a freshman, and the school had covered it up. I only found out about it when i learned that my roommate's girlfriend had a sorority sister on a full-ride scholarship to keep her quiet about being raped in her freshman year.

Suddenly, the pressure to use their chaperone service became clear.

[–] Hideakikarate@sh.itjust.works 90 points 1 day ago (5 children)

They probably don't charge money for that service though, and that's a better idea.

Both see the same offer, neither get the money

[–] INHALE_VEGETABLES@aussie.zone 21 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Do they bring their own leash or can you use your own?

[–] Korhaka@sopuli.xyz 7 points 21 hours ago

Can I use the one with the fuzzy collar?

[–] Snejp@lemmy.world 61 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Is the hand holding optional or?

[–] Klear@lemmy.world 52 points 1 day ago

Compulsory.

It's at least 5 years old and it seems every single year the news outlets "fact check" it and declare it false.

Meanwhile we have actual conspiracy theories on official government websites and those same outlets say nothing.

I hate this timeline.
