  • Tarantino is mad that something isn't a stupidly over the top parody of itself dreamt up by a 7 year old boy whose entire ethos is to imitate his troubled older brother. What a surprise. Go back to making your pretentious overrated last movie so you can go away forever. Reeeeee

  • Bravest slop identifier

  • I am pretty sure 90% of people who get called tankies on Lemmy are not communists. Tankie-calling is by far the most obnoxious Lemmy community pastime. But I'll give them this, it's an extremely annoying word, much more annoying to be called than "fascist". We need an unjustifiably smug sounding pejorative for people who call everyone tankies, to call them in exchange so that they can see how not epic their insult is.

    The key thing is that the insult needs to seem like you think it's really badass and brave of you to call them that, and it should seem like you think they're seething at you, when in reality it's a super lame insult. Like so:

    "You're a tankie"

    "Oh no the Tankie-twister has arrived!"

    "Wtf kind of lame insult is that lol"

    "Now you know how everyone else feels about being called tankies"

  • I know this is a joke, but I really dislike these negative characterizations of adulthood, especially because they seem to just suggest that we should be complacent with this kind of dissatisfaction and discomfort as if it's a intrinsic part of aging. I mean sure, maybe by the time you're 70 a lot of this is unavoidable, but that's far past being an adult. I often hear young people half-jokingly say that they may as well die by the time they turn 30. Interestingly, the same 30 to 50-year-olds who love to complain about teenagers dreading getting older are the same people who make them dread it by complaining about it. None of this stuff is really necessary to getting older, and again, I do understand that this is partially a joke, but I don't know...

    This isn't being an adult. This is just taking bad care of yourself, physically and mentally. If you've always taken bad care of yourself, then it'll start to pile up by the time you're an adult. If you've always taken good care of yourself, that'll also start to pile up by the time you're an adult.

  • Spelling it doter at age ten is actually crazy

  • I really like when bosses heal if it's in the style that some jrpgs will do where they have similar health to me and similar health gained by healing. I like feeling like I'm playing against an equal

  • Locked

    I dunno

  • This is absolutely not a problem of being bad with numbers. That's like if I had trouble reading a Chinese sentence about gardening and said I'm just bad with plants. My issue is that I'm not familiar with the notation used to explain the concept - not a problem with the concept itself that the notation merely arbitrarily symbolizes.

    Being good or bad at math is not really an inherent thing, aside from some geniuses and some people with disabilities. If you want to be good at math, you can be!

  • 69 is eternal, or at least as long as Arabic numerals remain in use. 67 does not replace 69, it lives alongside it. But 69 will outlast it. It was first referenced in 1790 https://www.dictionary.com/e/slang/69/ and will be repeatedly rediscovered by future generations

  • Fuck you brain I'm gonna keep learning and getting smarter forever RAAAAAH

  • Yeah no hate on you OP :)

    I figured it was either by someone outside the US or someone who just thought it was good conversation anyways.

  • This has gotta be bait

  • This is how those onlyfans promo account posts read. "Would you (obese gamer virgin) fuck me (fit nude model) however you want if I begged you for it enough????"

    And then the comments like "yes baby I'd love to 😋😍😉"

  • Ugh, that second one is the worst. How dare you invoke that name in my presence

  • I've always had an irrational dislike for the word "Bubba". It's just annoying to say, and I feel like it only ever shows up in annoying contexts. This flower is the first counterexample so far

  • But Russia is the one doing oil prospecting while masking it as seismic research which obviously skirts the intent of the Antarctic Treaty, which other countries actually do honor

  • Acting so good the message is transmitted in a still frame

  • Parkour fans rejoice as skill finally becomes useful

  • Ahhhh so this is why they want to make everyone poor

  • What do you mean bro words are my favorite meme format it's so flexible
