The fuck does “nobody” add to this?

[-] nialv7@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

It's called a meme format, grandpa.

[-] mhague@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Two possibilities.

1: It's the calm before the storm. It implies nobody was egging this on. People were simply going on with their lives, when suddenly a thing happens. "Out of nowhere." It's a common trope both visually and in writing.

2: It makes autistic people mad.

[-] Njos2SQEZtPVRhH@piefed.social -1 points 1 week ago

It suggests that nobody talks in the past tense about people have that just died. Which is false, because we do.

Why are they bending back like that?

I assume to dodge the oncoming bullet from the other side of the duel

Hard to find one of these places that still let you shoot at each other nowadays. :)

Angling the holster so that it’s already pointing at the target when it clears the waist

[-] deranger@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 week ago

In any of these “Nobody: “ memes you can crop that line and it changes very little. It’s a shit format imo.

[-] pyre@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

originally it was supposed to mean something being said or done unprompted. most people use it wrong so it doesn't make sense. here for example, the prompt is in the caption. someone died. that's the prompt. the use of was follows it logically.

the proper use of the meme would be something like:

Nobody:

Stephen King:

because he just says that shit unprompted, no one asks him about it, no one accuses or even suspects him being involved and suddenly, after years of criticizing orange mussolini, this happens to be the one time he supports him. that justifies the "nobody:" imo.

Nobody:

Nobody at all:

Not one person in the history of the universe:

This guy: Stop adding unnecessary lines.

That hat has a tiara on it.

Wikipedia senior editor here to answer all your dumbest Wikipedia-related questions. Fire away.

[-] ddplf@szmer.info 4 points 1 week ago

Who gave you that rank? Do you get monies?

[-] TheTechnician27@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

They're based on edit count and not something meant to be taken seriously. It's not a rank either; you don't gain any meaningful status by having more edits. I don't get any money.

Used it as a faux qualification here just to express that I'm experienced and qualified to answer dumb questions.

[-] ddplf@szmer.info 0 points 1 week ago

Ok, here goes another - are you aware that I'm gonna tag you a senior wikipedia editor on my lemmy app and thus gonna be reminded of who you really are each time I come across you?

[-] Empricorn@feddit.nl 0 points 1 week ago

who you really are

I don't think this actually gives you additional insight into their life, lol. We still don't know the important questions: Do they fart when they sit down? How many chinchillas do they own? What's their favorite medieval weapon? If they could en passant in real life, when would they use it?

[-] dream_weasel@sh.itjust.works -1 points 1 week ago

This is the guy that saved c/vegan on .world after the fiasco where the community basically imploded and moved to ML land. I'm not even a vegan (or vegetarian), but I know that :). Technician has done some Lemmy work.

[-] TheTechnician27@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

If anyone deserves credit for saving the comm, it'd be @Sunshine@lemmy.ca. She doesn't post there anymore owing to disagreements with .world (now posting in other vegan comms), but for a long time, she was the beating heart of /c/vegan.

[-] dream_weasel@sh.itjust.works -1 points 1 week ago

Sorry for a second I confused sunshine and beaver and was gonna argue with you lol. I just remember you made a very sane first mod post there or I would have just blocked the community.

[-] commie@lemmy.dbzer0.com -1 points 1 week ago

you didn't confuse them. it's the same person.

[-] shneancy@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Ozzy Osbourne's death was first announced to UK media, first article i could find came from the BBC and released 8:11pm

how is it that a Wikipedia editor outsprinted the first article and made the first death edit at 8:08pm?

[-] Saleh@feddit.org 1 points 1 week ago

Obviously someone in the BBC was salty that he didn't get to write the article on Ozzies death, so he quickly edited it in the Wikipedia so he could claim the "first" bragging rights.

[-] TheTechnician27@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Some of it's going to be down to a major news org like the BBC being much more careful to make sure he's really dead. With Wikipedia, that's a fuck-up, but almost anyone can make it, and it can easily be undone. With the BBC, that kind of fuck-up would haunt them for years. I've also read that Sky News may have been the first to confirm his death. Looking at that edit, the editor didn't mention a source; they just "was"d him. Bad practice by Wikipedia's standards but worked out in the end.

I think it's a point of pride that we can be so up-to-date, but as a tertiary source, we rely on the credibility of secondary sources like the BBC to have any semblance of usability and order. I think we're running different races, and we couldn't run ours if they didn't run theirs.

How do you feel about the Foundation using most of the money on things that are Wikipedia and then making highly misleading statements when they do fundraising drives on Wikipedia?

It took approximately an hour after Ozzy Osbourne died for every single Black Sabbath video on YouTube to be inundated with "R.I.P. Ozzy" comments.
