I’ll take “that totally happened” for 200, please.
Oh no my harvest is too bountiful

Clearly you have not been to a bar in Capitol Hill.
That’s nothing, that’s tame, that’s barely even remarkable as odd for all the wild shit I’ve seen and heard at and around the bars there.
IzzyScissor@lemmy.world 10 months ago
That’s horrible! Truly awful! Which bars, specifically, should I be avoiding?

so this is lemmy’s “science memes” huh
FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 10 months ago
I give it a month before we see the guy QQing about they types of people that hit on industrial engineers.

Are you a well-designed process? Because you have zero wasted steps and maximum output.
TranscendentalEmpire@lemmy.today 10 months ago
Sort of a similar situation with me and renfair people. I build and fit people with custom orthopedic braces and prosthetics and have access to a metal and leather lab.
I wouldn’t claim anyone is overly flirtatious, but they do seem to get friendlier and ask a lot of questions about things like hand setting rivets.
faythofdragons@slrpnk.net 10 months ago
Cosplayers would also love you, but the venn diagram between cosplay and ren fair is nearly a circle, so
TranscendentalEmpire@lemmy.today 10 months ago
I do work with a lot of moldable foam. I’ve always kinda figured if I get kicked from the field or get bored I can always build costumes or custom leather kink gear.

If you are worried about too many furries in your line of work, try changing jobs! Maybe get into IT or something?
ameancow@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Well then you just trade furries for scalies and bronies.
call_me_xale@lemmy.zip 10 months ago
whoosh
Hudell@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 months ago
Maybe I shouldn’t ask, but what are scalies?
DarrinBrunner@lemmy.world 10 months ago
If you don’t like this meme, post your own. That’s how this works, both here and on Reddit. Platform has nothing to do with it, unless it’s a closed, invite-only forum. That’s the only way you can keep out simple farmers, the people of the land. The common clay of the Earth.

The people who whine the loudest in situations like this are always the people who have like three posts in their history.
MBM@lemmings.world 10 months ago
Sounds like a honeytrap, those Furries must be up to something
BoxOfFeet@lemmy.world 10 months ago
The last thing we need is for them to develop nuclear capabilities…
WalrusDragonOnABike@reddthat.com 10 months ago
Don’t get the question. Sounds like telling people you’re a nuclear engineer is working out well.
Professorozone@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Embrace the furries, could be fun for a fling.
Kolanaki@pawb.social 10 months ago
I seem to be attracted to musicians more than any other hobby or profession. If you can sing or play an instrument, it makes me wet af.

I slap the end of pipes and tubes with a sandal. Sometimes I use two sandals, but society can’t always handle the intensity of that.

I don’t get it. Why furries?
Wirlocke@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 months ago
STEM fields are just full of furries, I don’t make the rules.
captainlezbian@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Because Seattle is full of them
LibertyLizard@slrpnk.net 10 months ago
What’s it got to do with being a nuclear engineer though? It just seems so random, it feels like I’m missing something.
devils_advocate@lemmy.ml 10 months ago
I attract lawyers.
ICastFist@programming.dev 10 months ago
I, too, like to commit crimes
BoxOfFeet@lemmy.world 10 months ago
Like, romantically? Or due to your activity?
Hudell@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 months ago
It was nurses for me. Not necessarily attracted them, but like a third of my matches on dating apps were nurses. And I remember one of them mentioning that it seemed like every other guy she matched with was in IT (at the time I thought it was simply because dating apps were still kinda new around here and IT people were more likely to be trying it)
sunoc@sh.itjust.works 10 months ago
Many such cases!

You guys just hate furries…
ameancow@lemmy.world 10 months ago
As with many things, you can love the content they produce while hating the fandom and all the people in it.
Acinonyx@lemmy.sdf.org 10 months ago
what is this content you’re referring to?
Acinonyx@lemmy.sdf.org 10 months ago
yes.
7bicycles@hexbear.net 10 months ago
So are we thinking they’re all gold diggers looking to get their fursuit bought, they’re all also in similar high earning fields looking for similar companionship or just assume OP is also a furry because every nuclear engineer is?
Cause I think it’s nr.3
YiddishMcSquidish@lemmy.today 10 months ago
Don’t go to bars in Seattle?
DarkAri@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 months ago
Maybe don’t brag about your job.
Squirrelanna@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 months ago
We don’t know if they were bragging or not. It’s pretty common to ask what someone’s job is during small talk. For all we know he literally just said his job title and left it at that.
DarkAri@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 months ago
Guy did say it like five times in one paragraph, just in case people forgot it before they finished reading his post.
filcuk@lemmy.zip 10 months ago
If i were a nuclear engineer, everyone around me wouldn’t hear the end of it
DarkAri@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 months ago
I think bragging about how much money or education you have is very low class. I also think this is how you end up with a golddigger wife. Better to hide your wealth.
sanpedropeddler@sh.itjust.works 10 months ago
Jobs come up pretty damn often in conversation with strangers. If they ask, youre obliged to tell them the truth. Doing so would hardly constitute bragging in my opinion.
JackbyDev@programming.dev 10 months ago

ShinkanTrain@lemmy.ml 10 months ago
Start pronouncing it ‘nucular’, there’s no bigger turn off.
Banana@sh.itjust.works 10 months ago
RIGHT?! I’m glad I’m not the only one. It’s based on the term NUCLEUS ffs.
Venus_Ziegenfalle@feddit.org 10 months ago
Common misconception but it’s actually based on Saint Nukulus, the guy that puts uranium in your boots if you leave them out overnight.
ShinkanTrain@lemmy.ml 10 months ago
Now, to be fair, nucleus it comes from the latin nuculus. It just that it sounds bad and feels bad to say
ReplicantBatty@lemmy.one 10 months ago
Nuculeus
bitjunkie@lemmy.world 10 months ago
nuculus*
acockworkorange@mander.xyz 8 months ago
Dubya said nucular, must be right.
Malgas@beehaw.org 10 months ago
Fun fact: “nuclear” ultimately comes from the Latin nuculus, ‘little nut’. The c and l being adjacent is the result of metathesis, similar to pronouncing “ask” as “ax”.
Schmoo@slrpnk.net 10 months ago
Now go further back. Where does the latin word nucula come from?
Morphit@feddit.uk 10 months ago
Did I ax you?
Hudell@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 months ago
Is that because we exist within a nut?
Or something like that, I don’t know. I don’t remember anything from the “the universe in a nutshell” book.
