I’m glad you provided a serious answer, because I thought the bottom picture was just a joke and not a reference to an actual person or thing that had happened.

Yeah, and at the end of the day, we’re all just bags of meat with electricity flowing through us. It’s amazing we’ve made it this far.
Whenever I’m driving and someone does something really stupid, I’ve started saying to myself “don’t be mad, cut them some slack, it’s clearly their first day driving.” I started saying it as a joke, but honestly it seems pretty accurate most of the time.
Edit: I shared this with a friend and she responded
My sister and I text each other OWIHTP when we are behind someone who waits for their entire set of groceries to be scanned and bagged and loaded and suddenly realizes they will have to pay for these food stuffs and only then begins searching for a method of payment. It means “Oh, wait, I have to pay.” Happens waaaay too often.
Guitar Hero on the Wii was peak gaming. We used to have Guitar Hero parties where we’d have a bunch of friends over and stay up all night rocking out. Was so much fun.
I just took my wife to see The Housemaid this weekend. On one hand, the plot was kind of forced and it had to do a lot of voice overs to explain what was going on. On the other hand it had Sydney Sweeney’s tits in it. 5 stars.

11·16 days agoWe like to shit on Tik Tok, but you’re right that their reach is absolutely massive. Recently when Democrats were writing op eds and taking out ads saying that troops should ignore illegal orders, a high ranking member of the military (I forget who) commented that the messaging was ineffective because troops almost universally get their “news” through Tik Tok.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•3.5" floppy disks were peak tactile feedback in storage: easy to stick in, drives had a button to immediately eject them, big enough to get labels, thin enough that stacks didn't take too much spaceEnglish
23·1 month agoGrowing up, my dad used to download a lot of games off BBSes for me and my brother. He would save them on 3.5 floppies and then label what game was on each one. I’ve got fond memories of flipping through his box of floppies seeing what new games he had for us to play.

40·1 month agoThat’s my polite way of saying “what the fuck are you talking about?”
Same. My older brother gives me hell for not eating spicy wings and ordering mild when he’s ordering atomic volcano or whatever. In like “dude, my intestines cannot tolerate that. I will wake up at 3:00AM in pain.” He doesn’t believe me.
Not having your user be your sworn enemy
That gave me a good laugh, because every dev I’ve ever worked with sees users this way.
72 year old man founds a conservative youth organization. Talk about astroturfing.
“split my ass, Roland”
Nice
I had a roommate in college that always called it “lazy bitch the Susan”. I don’t know why, but that stuck and it’s what my wife and I have called it ever since.


















Yeah their news articles try not to be as blatantly pure propaganda as their TV programming, but they still omit a lot of information to subtlety frame stories in their favor.
