We should maybe try to suck less.

Here I'll start: you are kind of awesome Flying Squid, making Lemmy worth coming to day in and day out... even if the thought of your Eldritch strangeness does terrify me! :-P

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 13 points 9 months ago

Thank you, OpenStars, that is very kind of you. And if I didn't have the Lemmy equivalent of face blindness, I'm sure I would have similar nice things to say about you. You seem like a very nice person!

However, as far as Eldrich strangeness goes, worry no more! Our natural world is strange enough!

T-t-that's not terrifying at all, n-n-nope!

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 8 points 9 months ago

Don't worry, we don't want to take over the world, we only want to get revenge on those fucking crabs.

[-] OpenStars@startrek.website 5 points 9 months ago

Oh yeah, screw those guys - carry on then. :-D

Is the flying squid you linked, does a new one take control and share the account each day or are you like the collective consciousness of them

If you don't like it then leave.

That dude was definitely an alien in disguise.

Global warming aside, we went from industrial revolution to landing a truck-sized robot on the surface of mars in 250 years. I'd say that makes us pretty damn awesome.

We don't have any other examples though. Maybe alien life all gets to physical dimension 5 by year 200 or something. Time being relative and all makes that somewhat feasible.

that's hilarious. I like to think that the person posting this personalized it so hard that he's cringing at himself for being on earth at that moment
