This happens way more than I’d like it to. Just be mid sentence in a conversation and remember it’s all pointless and one time I said I wanted to jump the bones of my 62 year old male coworker by accident because my brain didn’t remember what that phrase means.

Yeah, you’re not tucking around.

The silent majority are never going to have the time to blow on shit that people who get so mentally invested in this stuff do.

That’s what people don’t seem to understand. The silent majority is not mindless by choice. They’re mindless by design.

Ask questions. Either people will or won’t engage but if you have any credibility with them, they have a little bit of buy in to listen to your shit. Then you just might get them curious.

Just the other day I was walking through our local VA campus and I was curious about why every roof of the buildings built in the 1920s has a bunch of little house looking vent things on the top. I think I know the answer but I’m still curious about it.

Probably not a good example of something to spark curiosity with, but you never know what will.

Thanks for sharing. My nephew went to rehab recently for Xanax and I didn’t really understand it. I didn’t want to prod him or my sister really, so I appreciate the insight.

I thought it was because Reddit is like “read it” and Lemmy is like “Lemmy show you this”. Lemmings is a great name though.

There’s a surprisingly more expansive demographic that pro tip applies to.

Dude, tell me more about your custom app.

Take this as an opportunity to talk as much as you want about it. That sounds fascinating.

You can use Power Delete Suite. It’s what I used.
