4. Comments reflect Topic A discourse.

When Topic A discourse is applied to Topic B, it changes the entire context and tone of the conversation. I’ve seen it used to make humorous posts where the OP was transparent about the fact that they would change their posts to make the person responding to them seem crazy. While being upfront about that for the lulz is fine, it can easily be abused if the OP has ulterior motives. The OP can post flamebait, some people fall for it, then the OP edits their posts to seem more grounded and reasonable, while making the people replying to them seem unreasonable.

All that said, I’m sure the mods have change logs of posts and some people would definitely notice the edits. Not to mention the Way Back Machine.

I’m sure someone smarter than me could come up with worse abuse of the post edit system, and why it wouldn’t really matter too much in the end.

If this came from a coworker: 😀

If this came from management: 😡

Yep. I’ve been there myself. It’s strange being “between worlds” as it were, but I’ve come to terms and even celebrate my multiculturalness.

Coconuts as in “brown and hairy on the outside, white on the inside”?

That’s pretty funny lol

Edgy humor is fun and all, but this I feel is in poor taste.

For me it’s more kicking me while I’m down. I do not need a new windshield right now, life!

This is the sole reason I want contacts.

I’m talking out of my ass, but it could mean that the natural conclusion of democracy is mob rule, where nothing matters besides the sentiment of “the mob”, a large group of like-minded people. Here he was falsely accused of theft but because enough people believed the lie, he was taken to jail based solely on sentiment.

Or not. This is my take on his “democracy manifest” comment.

Bob the Builder encourages confidence in one’s abilities. He says “can we fix it?” And then immediately responds with “yes we can!” and expects you to respond the same with him. The meme is saying their decline in their self confidence and even world view started when they didn’t respond “yes we can” but instead “no we cant”

Two wrongs don’t make a right, but three rights make a left.

An Ötzi reference, in my Lemmy?

I gotta agree with the post. Millie would be a cute alternative Mildred. The name reminds me of mildew.

What does it mean to you?

Yeah, someone’s just having a bit of fun.

Unless there are multiple people registering patients, and one of them doesn’t use punctuation.

Magnesium citrate. Take it a few minutes before you actually need to.

You dare question the mighty Jimmy?!

That motherfucker had like…30 god damn dicks.

You can still not answer your phone. You can put it in airplane mode or Do Not Disturb, or even turn it off. Nobody is entitled to your time. Leave people on seen.

I see what you did there.

Wouldn’t they have revoked your license by this point?
