  1. how it looks
  2. what it looks like

You need to pick a lane, Skippy.

[-] BowtiesAreCool@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago

I gave up on this like 10 years ago on the internet.

[-] TriflingToad@sh.itjust.works 35 points 6 days ago

Here's what it looks like:

How it looks like?

Look I type dumb shit and don't catch it too but this is a comic, maybe proofread.

[-] essteeyou@lemmy.world 11 points 6 days ago

Perhaps this was written by someone who says things like "I shouldn't of went there"

[-] Psythik@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago

And things like "anotherwords, I could care less", and "peaked my interest". Or "I'm very weary of this person".

oh sweet merciful

[-] McLoud@lemm.ee 3 points 6 days ago

Because the humans are thoughtless and dumb. Duh

[-] sxan@midwest.social 108 points 1 week ago

The molten aluminum version was seriously cool, though.

[-] TachyonTele@lemm.ee 61 points 1 week ago

If you're going to destroy an entire city, at least do with style.

[-] pastermil@sh.itjust.works 23 points 1 week ago

It's an abandoned city, if it makes you feel better.

I was hoping otherwise, tho.

[-] atro_city@fedia.io 13 points 1 week ago

You want to know that ants suffered while the art was made.

[-] Beldarofremulak@lemmy.world 16 points 1 week ago

What is art without suffering?

::golfclap::

[-] pastermil@sh.itjust.works 2 points 6 days ago

That is not always the case.

But for this case, fuck the ants.

[-] Wogi@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago

I for one would like to offer a heartfelt apology to our inevitable ant overlords.

[-] pastermil@sh.itjust.works 3 points 6 days ago

Bite me!

Wait, they did.

[-] imPastaSyndrome@lemm.ee 67 points 1 week ago

Molten metal, more often, from what I've seen

[-] brsrklf@jlai.lu 3 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

Yeah, I've seen this done with aluminium.

[-] marcos@lemmy.world 31 points 1 week ago

I don't think concrete will even flow consistently enough to fill the nest.

[-] Maalus@lemmy.world 28 points 1 week ago

Yeah because it doesn't need to set and is ready to dig up quickly and doesn't break off. Concrete would probably lose a bunch of paths when they're digging it out.

[-] Evil_Shrubbery@lemm.ee 33 points 1 week ago

This is why advanced aliens would just blow up a city, to like see what it's like underneath.

[-] dubyakay@lemmy.ca 4 points 6 days ago

*how it looks like underneath.

Aliens can make mistakes in English as well.

[-] nonfuinoncuro@lemm.ee 5 points 6 days ago

is it a mistake if they're the only ones left who can use any language? I thought history was written by the victors

[-] M137@lemmy.world 17 points 1 week ago

Or "How it looks"

It's just disturbing how most people are dumb enough to never understand this, it's such a common mistake.

[-] IMNOTCRAZYINSTITUTION@lemmy.world 11 points 1 week ago

consider that perhaps language may be flexible

[-] jaggedrobotpubes@lemmy.world 6 points 6 days ago

Sometimes it bloesn't to be.

That's "yes you're totally right" in my new made up language and if you call it the obviously dumb crap it is, it's because you're inflexible

[-] IMNOTCRAZYINSTITUTION@lemmy.world -2 points 6 days ago

buddy are you 14 or something because that's weak

[-] tacosplease@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago

Yeah but there are also norms.

Could you say "Merry Birthday!" Sure. Should you though?

Same thing here. It works. It just feels off.

[-] brbposting@sh.itjust.works 7 points 1 week ago
[-] RootBeerGuy@discuss.tchncs.de 8 points 6 days ago

I recently learned that this is actually used in the UK.

it feels off, to you. it feels fine to me. does that make me dumb or am I just a different person with different thoughts and feelings than you?

[-] tacosplease@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago

Doesn't make you dumb, but it could make you seem dumb like pronouncing the "L" in salmon.

might start doing that just for fun

[-] Feathercrown@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

No you're dumb because you're different obviously /s

[-] midnight_puker@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 week ago

Thank you for addressing this.
