Look, I came for an argument. This isn't an argument!

Actually we're all mutually participating in a satire thread! Fite me!

[–] DandomRude@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It's the best argument, tremendous, irrefutable.

[–] Cfrolich@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It’s the worst argument because you’re in it!

[–] DandomRude@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

There is no point in arguing about that

What is even happening in this gif

[–] rustyfish@lemmy.world 42 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Don’t feel bad for blocking the worst offenders. Lemmy is small enough for that option to work quite well. Which is the best you can do. Being ignored drives them crazy.

You motherfucker…

[–] Zwiebel@feddit.org 9 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Actually there's more than enough people on lemmy

[–] sleen@lemmy.zip 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yep agreed. Everyone's views are different, and there is definitively going to be some opposition.

[–] Peppycito@sh.itjust.works 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I don't mean to be memey, but personally I find the "hive mind" here to be way more homogeneous than on reddit. Unless you count different engineering fields as different viewpoints. There are way fewer creatives and trades here. And the engineery types like to pile on to any point of view that doesn't match their world view.

[–] rbos@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 month ago

You definitely do have to work harder to find more diverse viewpoints here. It's a bit of a chicken and egg problem. At least on mastodon you can specifically follow people who talk about things outside your realm of experience.

It's called "engagement", sweaty, deal with it

/s

[–] gregor@gregtech.eu 16 points 1 month ago (2 children)

"Sweaty"? I believe you mean "sweety".

[–] Technus@lemmy.zip 34 points 1 month ago (1 children)

(That's part of the joke.)

(Unless you're also saying that to be a contrarian, then well played.)

[–] gregor@gregtech.eu 28 points 1 month ago

Uhhhhh yes I absolutely meant that as a contrarian, I 100% am not seriously correcting you

[–] meowMix2525@lemm.ee 5 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

Look up "thebootydiaries tumblr sweaty" and give the images that come up a brief scroll. I'm not very creative so I'm just gonna tell you that we can do this all day.

(edit: I've realized you probably already know about this and I'm the one missing the joke but i saw a brief opportunity to contribute and took it so I'm not taking it down.)

Them and the weasels are the worst:

[–] hungryphrog@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 1 month ago

when I saw this I thought "what does this guy have against weasels??" before realising that this wasn't an anti-weasel comment

Thanks, I made it to respond to some persnickety dick cheese on here.

[–] hungryphrog@lemmy.blahaj.zone 22 points 1 month ago (2 children)

my dude is in the End dimension

[–] Vuraniute@thelemmy.club 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

no he isn't he's just at a cliff !!!

[–] hungryphrog@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 month ago (29 children)

Seconds away from getting absolutely yeeted by the Ender Dragon.

[–] Xylight@lemm.ee 21 points 1 month ago (1 children)

What's the origin of this photo? It looks really cool.

[–] Bytemeister@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I think it is a free diver sitting on the edge of a blue hole.

[–] Obi@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I think it's upside down, right?

[–] Bytemeister@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Maybe. I'd expect the sediment and rocks to be settling down instead of of up. I'm in the 80% sure range that this is right-side up.

I once said that children who steal can be rehabilitated or taught to be productive members of society.

Downvoted to oblivion while everyone else celebrated the death of 3 kids because "all thieves deserve to die".

[–] MBM@lemmings.world 7 points 1 month ago

With statements like this there's almost always some context left out, but even in the best case this feels like cheering on the death penalty

"The world could be a better place"

NO IT COULDN'T!!

[–] Draegur@lemm.ee 14 points 1 month ago (1 children)

you can sense the change in air pressure as several walls of NUH-UH are rapidly approaching your position to explain in excruciating detail why and how the point you made wasn't nearly as reasonable as you believed it had been. or just yell at you a lot >_>;

[–] Peppycito@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 month ago

NUH-UH is lemmys catch phrase.

Anytime Marxism is mentioned on Lemmy.world

[–] carl_marks_1312@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 month ago

Anytime AES states are mentioned in a way that doesn't align with US foreign policy. (It's a wonderful study of hegemony in action)

What about the exception-makers. They agree…sorta, but always have to carve out a little spot for them to be more right, or you wrong, in an often irrelevant way.

[–] Rev3rze@feddit.nl 8 points 1 month ago

Well, actually, exceptions can be important to lend blanket statements some nuance. Wait, I'm doing it right now, aren't I?

[–] sirico@feddit.uk 4 points 1 month ago

Where's your evidence? Not mine I'll just ghost the reply
