They didn't have to make it look like the toilets cheeks were flushed in the 3rd panel... but they did.

(no pun intended)

The fact that the post has been screenshot (screenshotted?) several times is how you know it really happened, exactly as written. If it was just text that was copy/pasted, anyone could have changed the details, or even made it up entirely. It is a little strange that noone clapped at the end... but hey, history be crazy like that.

Communication is a 2-way street.

Writing out an incoherent, unpunctuated paragraph is not only lazy on the writer's part, it's disrespectful in asking the reader to put in extra work to decipher what the actual hell they are talking about. Fortunately, it's also a pretty good sign that there's not a ton of value in whatever they wrote.

I'm a little high and agree...

I feel like I might still agree while stone cold sober

people who liked to keep an even achievement score

Wait, what? Was this some kind of meta game people played, or just some weird compulsion like having to have the volume set to multiples of five?

Or do you actually not do this and live in a disgusting, filthy, dirt-covered house all the time?

Did you meant to ask "What do YOU" call this dish?

Because the "correct" name probably changes every 100 miles [161km]

Impulse control and the general idea of delaying minor pleasures now that will have significant benefits later, or even just not doing things that kinda feel good in the moment but will make you miserable in the near future. As a species we're pretty terrible at those kinds of judgments.

The meme of the guy poking a stick into his bike wheel in one frame and lying in a crumpled pile in the next is timeless for exactly that reason. Same with shocked Pikachu.

I get what you're saying, but IMO a 2 hour movie is too low stakes to warrant spending more than a minute or two glancing at reviews, which is why RT and IMDB are nice, even if the summary score isn't totally reliable.

Am I interested in it from a quick synopsis or trailer?

Are the reviews generally at least mixed or better?

If the answer to both those is Yes, there's a good enough chance I'll enjoy it to give it a shot.

This is a post about Lemmy... about posts on Lemmy. So I think it counts as a post about Lemmy.

Right??

Maybe some context would help explain why being asked to do your job is mildly infuriating.
