Well yeah, it’s a slice of life, not the Hero’s Journey.

This motherfucker when their wife tells them about their day: there was no beginning, middle, or end; the climax wasn’t revealed in chronological order; the hero is clearly a Mary-Sue…

Could’ve made it more interesting though

One of the more believable greentexts I’ve read, and likely for this reason.

yeah, stories dont walk, duh

There are jobs and there are jobs. But well, some are born as cashier, I guess. What do I know. Give it a few more by years of doing the same boring repetition over and over, for little to no pay.

It’s a good starting point though. Sometimes you just need something to give yourself some momentum to get going with work
anas@lemmy.world 11 months ago
because what he was doing before is way better, right?

My biggest takeaway from this green text is go to Long John silver’s to be greeted by a fapaholic and just look at his hands and look in his eyes and picture him being a fapaholic while he’s handling your cash and he’s got his hands all over that cash register and he hands you your paper bag full of greasy food.

Hell yeah bro, get locked in for that corporate grind. Getting those positive vibes out, absolutely hammering those orders, and staying locked in.

When you’re young and need money, a dead-end job is better than no job. Fund your search for higher sights to set
mojofrododojo@lemmy.world 11 months ago
When need money
think you can simplify that equation
LemmyKnowsBest@lemmy.world 11 months ago
The tragic part of spending all one’s time & energy in a dead end job, just to barely financially survive, it kinda drains you (physically, mentally, emotionally, morale, creatively, sucks out all your life force) and that’s where the tragic dead end truly begins.

I understand that reference.

What year is it

Wait there is that tattoo thing, 2002 it is.

This sounds like it’s written by someone that’s not 18 currently. Posting on 4chan but not applying online? Biking for applications in person sounds like some old people thing back in the day.

Well… I’ll never get the time back I wasted on reading this super boring and pointless story
MindTraveller@lemmy.ca 11 months ago
extremely religious so I know I shouldn’t be fapping at all.
Correlation does not equal causation. Being religious doesn’t cause the belief that fapping is wrong. Being Christian causes it. Being Christian also causes being religious, but not the other way around. So it’s a common cause leading to correlation, not an actual causal relationship. And it isn’t a logical deduction either.
OP should have been studying philosophy instead of fapping, maybe then he wouldn’t make logical mistakes which inadvertently erase the diversity of religious experiences.
halvar@lemm.ee 11 months ago
I know you’re all excited because you just understood the “correlation does not equal causation” principle, but “being religious” generally means being christian in english and I think you are just refusing to see that.
MindTraveller@lemmy.ca 11 months ago
The only reason for that is the many genocides perpetrated against members of other religions. Especially in places like Australia and the Americas where Christians were bloodthirsty invaders. By equating the two, all you’re doing is continuing the work of conquistadores and other murderous colonisers.
Bertuccio@lemmy.world 11 months ago
You’re confusing correlation does not equal causation with some other logical fallacy. Probably denying the antecedent, but I can’t be arsed to look up the specific one.
If you think Christianity is uniquely bad that’s probably because you haven’t learned enough about other religions.

Ok, which religion is masturbation positive though? Islam, Judaism, Buddism, … ?
MindTraveller@lemmy.ca 11 months ago
Many Protestant churches in Northern and Western Europe and some Protestant churches in Northern America and in Australia/New Zealand see masturbation as not a sin.
Hinduism: Seeking bodily pleasure is only considered condemned for those who dedicate themselves to chastity. There are no references in Hindu religious texts to suggest that masturbation itself desecrates sexual purity. For those who are dedicated to chastity, this sin is absolutely minor, and can be absolved either by taking a bath, or by worshipping the Sun, or by saying three prayers.
Buddhism: The most used formulation of Buddhist ethics are the Five Precepts. These precepts take the form of voluntary personal undertakings, not divine mandate or instruction. The third precept is “to refrain from committing sexual misconduct”.[220] However, different schools of Buddhism have differing interpretations of what constitutes sexual misconduct.
Wicca, like other religions, has adherents with a spectrum of views ranging from conservative to liberal. Wicca is generally undogmatic, and nothing in Wiccan philosophy prohibits masturbation. On the contrary, Wiccan ethics, summed up in the Wiccan Rede “An it harm none, do as thou wilt”, are interpreted by many as endorsing responsible sexual activity of all varieties. This is reinforced in the Charge of the Goddess, a key piece of Wiccan literature, in which the Goddess says, “all acts of love and pleasure are my rituals”.[235]

This is a tiny fraction of the religions that sometimes or always allow masturbation. I’m not seeing any indigenous American, Australian, or Austronesian religions in this article.

Unitarian-Universalists don’t have a problem at all with masturbation, and they encourage you to explore and accept your body. That sounds pretty masturbation positive to me!
MrJameGumb@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Well, he aced lesson one on how to get a job: don’t masturbate during the interview (unless that’s something you and the interviewer have agreed upon ahead of time for some reason)
Seraph@fedia.io 11 months ago
You mean: be willing to work for minimum wage and actually capable of holding a conversation, even if awkward.
wreckedcarzz@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Yeah I was just waiting for that to happen, esp with the sweaty outfit, I was expecting a new kink unlock experience. Or on the job, or when locking up…
