Mostly lurking. United States southerner, gay, working retail. An amazing combination
I automatically read that sentence in AoStH Robotnik’s voice. I don’t know if he ever even said that, he’s just the ultimate example of the Card-Carrying Villain in my mind.
I think the absurdity is part of the joke, but you sound like me in that you enjoy your fiction in an incredibly literal way. I remember being into cartoons as a kid and needing grounded explanations for everything even though the characters’ lives essentially reset every 30 minutes.
OK, there are a few things the internet wouldn’t let me forget.
How did I know she was from The Super Mario Super Show before reading the text? I have almost no memory of that show.
Oh shit, I didn’t even think about that. What the hell.
This sucks for so many. People use timestamps for content warnings or to help viewers avoid spoilers. Commenters use timestamps when talking about the content of the video. It’s insane to change this once it’s so ingrained in how people use the website.
TIL how many potato-related words I can think of
Reddit is so useless. I write occasionally, and whenever I hit a wall researching a character’s background, everyone tells me, “ask on Reddit!”
I stopped asking on Reddit five years ago, because I can’t get any feedback besides a handful teenagers making wild guesses. Thank you for trying, kids. I guess.
I don’t know where this wiki got the name Sonja for her, let alone the word sexy.
Nah, this entire thing is about US control. They’re upset that it’s a different government that’s spying on us this time. No sympathy for TikTok but there’s no good way to spin this.
Btw, you know if TikTok sells to a US company, they’ll be just as rancid, right?
Yeah, I know I was exaggerating. I’m just constantly pissed at stuff I swore I removed from my PC
Eh fair, to me that’s just severely outweighed by the bloatware and needing third party apps to customize the UI how I used to like. It feels uglier and bulkier and like they took away a ton of good functions.
Have Windows users ever wanted a single thing they added since XP? It seems like every time I upgrade they add some cluttery nonsense I can’t get rid of. I moved to Windows 10 for software compatibility, and I still hate it.
Man, sometimes I forget how awful that site could actually be. I just miss the crafting subreddits.
It’s supposed to be a one-two punch. You’re expecting him to kill her with cyanide, but it turns out you were mistaken! Then he kills her anyway
This kind of joke can totally work in a well-paced comedy, but not a two sentence horror. It’s a stretch to do it in two sentences.
I actually didn’t know about Stack Overflow. That’s disappointing.
It’s just part of the US government’s constant obsession with controlling the internet. They managed to make it sound legit this time due to anxiety around the CCP, but it’s not going to end at TikTok.
Appreciate this, I thought they were both called “the internet”. I knew we called it the worldwide web when I was a kid, but I thought that was just a phrase that fell out of fashion.
Used to be, but I don’t think it’s available anymore 🙁 it’s an older drawing
I’ll have to keep an eye out for more! I actually found it on /r/OCDMemes and was pleasantly surprised because the rest of the subreddit was as depressing as you’d expect 🥲
