  • I can't stop scatting "cat kitty cat cat kitty cat cat" now.

  • It's really exhausting. OCD, ADHD, NPD, BPD, Bipolar disorder, all these commonly armchair-diagnosed disorders have lost so much meaning due to inappropriate use. I was recently accused of gaslighting because I didn't recall what someone was criticizing me for, so I said as much and asked for examples. Big gaslighter here, everyone.

  • I'm sorry for being emotionally caring and caring about the durability of your own bedroom.

  • Ugh, yes. I'm going through a rough relationship patch where we've separated to work on ourselves and the relationship.

    My natural inclination is to pursue and put in effort until I drop, but the smart move is almost always to wait. For days, even weeks. There have been a few instances where I felt like my last move was an eternity ago. Nope, just two days. Not even full days. Torture!

  • Did you eat it? Because they're delicious.

  • My thoughts exactly. I can't wait to see the controlled opposition "accidentally" fumble a guaranteed win.

  • I assume the spiders would have died, and now you have delicious, brined cooking bananas!

  • The same way you finished your username?

  • Same, though mine wasn't always like that.

  • I'm allergic to cats but live with three without issues. I took one cetirizine a day for years and I'm now asymptomatic. I can love all the cats now!

  • Same, it's just running an unresponsive prime95 24/7 and Windows 95 won't let me kill the process.

  • I see the point being made; however, how the fuck else might I jam several clauses into one compound megasentence - overwrought and peppered with purple prose - if not with multiple types of punctuation? Should I summarize, streamline? Clearly not: all thoughts should be expressed in full, replete with all irrelevant details. Perhaps remove unneeded, intra-sentence explanations and asides (like this one, which I'm quite fond of) of details obvious to the reader?! Never!

    No AI could write with matching convolution — especially when, unlike me, it cannot do so on the toilet.

  • Seriously! BoF 1-3 with modern graphics and controls would be great .

  • You just have to push through! Willpower!

    Just kidding, I hate that shit. Sorry to hear it, I can't imagine how difficult that must be. I've never tried meth. It sounds like it'd be too much of what already works for me.

  • It could be ADHD too. It, other neurodevelopmental disorders, and affective disorders can affect how one feels about just about anything.

    I have ADHD and I derive nearly no pleasure from "a job well done" unless the outcome is directly and fairly immediately beneficial.

    Project completed at work? At most I'll be relieved it's done unless it shows off my skills, which I like - dopamine!

    Baked a cake? For myself, fuck yeah - dopamine! For someone else and I don't get any? The forecast shows a light chance of a low pressure dopamine system entering the region this afternoon, depending on how much I like the person.

  • Wash yourself in the soothing glow of Mint's DE and be born again!

  • Same! I saw that characteristic lighting in the preview thumbnail and got so excited.

  • I've having a week and this is exactly what I needed. I'm now getting all my news from BBC Pidgin.

    English headline: Trump wants to pause migration from 'third-world countries'

    Pidgin headline: Who be di 'third world countries' Trump say im go permanently pause dia migration to US?

  • Same with "the customer is always right" having "in matters of taste" added to it as the alleged full version around the same period.

    Not only is it wrong, it ignores the entire narrative that led up to the original saying. Retailers asked their front-line staff to tolerate customers's unreasonable behavior to increase sales. That's it. The revision shifts the blame to the customers, who should be civil regardless, but would be more likely to be so if acting otherwise didn't have few consequences and the possibility of greater material gain.
