I had to read that 5 times to figure out there as a missing period between "working" and "time".

Its still funny though. While we're here in this comment, let me tell you some fascinating things about the B-29 you're standing next to. Did you know that during the war....

I'm noticing a disturbing lack of punctuation recently.

[-] sneezycat@sopuli.xyz 51 points 2 years ago

Yeah it's especially annoying when people write long winding complicated sentences and use no punctuation signs whatsoever it's so infuriating!

[-] Albbi@lemmy.ca 32 points 2 years ago

I don't... know which, is worse... too much punctuation, or, not enough punctuation...

[-] Nelots@lemm.ee 33 points 2 years ago

Definitely none. While your comment is annoying, at least it's legible without needing to be read 17 times.

[-] danc4498@lemmy.world 16 points 2 years ago

Also, the run on sentences aren’t that bad it’s the multiple sentences with a missing period between the two that suck.

It's working time!

[-] Zamotic@lemmy.zip 11 points 2 years ago

I read it 5 times, and couldn't understand it until I saw your comment. So thank you!

time to learn about punctuation.

[-] Dozzi92@lemmy.world 25 points 2 years ago

Just another strategy, she clearly wants to date a Nazi, grammar or otherwise.

[-] tiredofsametab@kbin.run 17 points 2 years ago

At first, I was trying to figure out what "working time" meant here and thought it must be some other gen-z slang my old ass doesn't understand.

This would work on me if I wasn't just going to have a pleasant discussion about the airplanes and then tell her to have a nice day, because I'm not going to just assume she's into me because we both like old airplanes.

[-] FordBeeblebrox@lemmy.world 26 points 2 years ago

I once got a tattoo from an artist who was cute and, in hindsight, clearly into me. Just the two of us in the shop, showing me photos of other designs while leaning very close, etc.

I commended her artwork, paid for the ink and left. Still kick myself thinking about it, we are not the most intuitive creatures.

[-] Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 57 points 2 years ago

And you didn't because then you'd just be another customer hitting on someone who's just trying to do her job. Just like I'd just be another asshole hitting on a woman who's just trying to enjoy airplanes.

[-] Geobloke@lemm.ee 17 points 2 years ago

Similar story for me

I was in a hostel in Berlin and I'd had a fun time with this girl and a few others in a bar the night before. She had a nice tattoo on her arm and I complimented on it, she then took off most of her clothes and showed me her other tattoos but I didn't think they were as nice though I politely said they were nice. I then went out to get breakfast leaving this poor girl in her underwear

Ok so what's the opposite gender equivalent of this. Asking for a friend.

OOOOH now I get it lol. Guess I had to see it from a more personally relatable perspective.

Take your kid to the playground.

It's a perfect equivalent, because you'll get the occasional sexist saying vile things and forcing you to leave, too! But mostly, women will fawn over you.

[-] howrar@lemmy.ca 60 points 2 years ago

Even the dating market demands experience for an entry level position now.

[-] Dozzi92@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago

It's funny, two things that made it infinitely easier to pick up women were my wedding ring and my kids. Of course it's probably the complete lack of pressure, knowing I'm not actually picking up anyone. Always been a confidence issue.

Until you're approached by a guy who's suspiciously obsessed with the Wehrmacht.

  • Look confused in WW2 section

  • Get hit on by a bunch of Wehraboos

Damnit.

[-] Zehzin@lemmy.world 16 points 2 years ago

Either Wehraboos or Non-Credible Defense posters

Her odds are good, but the goods are odd.

"the WWII section" of what, IKEA?

[-] The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world 37 points 2 years ago

If you haven't checked out that section of IKEA, it's pretty great. The aircrafts take ages to build though.

It's like anything adjacent to weapons or martial arts. The "experts" will pour out of the woodwork and bombard you with AKSHUALLY's....even though all you did was post a silly meme.

i would say autistic ppl, but they probably would be more focused on the planes than the woman

Never underestimate the power of infodumping a special interest

[-] afraid_of_zombies@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago

There are what a thousand or so real WW2 planes left? There are 4 billion woman. Clearly the planes should be the priority given their scarcity.

[-] 33550336@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago

My 3 yo son is interested in ww2 planes, this passion is inter-generational.
