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 2 months ago
That’s horrible! Truly awful! Which bars, specifically, should I be avoiding?

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 2 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.

Cosplayers would also love you, but the venn diagram between cosplay and ren fair is nearly a circle, so
TranscendentalEmpire@lemmy.today 2 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 2 months ago
Well then you just trade furries for scalies and bronies.

Maybe I shouldn’t ask, but what are scalies?

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.

Sounds like a honeytrap, those Furries must be up to something
BoxOfFeet@lemmy.world 2 months ago
The last thing we need is for them to develop nuclear capabilities…
WalrusDragonOnABike@reddthat.com 2 months ago
Don’t get the question. Sounds like telling people you’re a nuclear engineer is working out well.
Professorozone@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Embrace the furries, could be fun for a fling.

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 don’t get it. Why furries?
Wirlocke@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 months ago
STEM fields are just full of furries, I don’t make the rules.
captainlezbian@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Because Seattle is full of them
LibertyLizard@slrpnk.net 2 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 2 months ago
I attract lawyers.

I, too, like to commit crimes
BoxOfFeet@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Like, romantically? Or due to your activity?
Hudell@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 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)

As with many things, you can love the content they produce while hating the fandom and all the people in it.

yes.

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 2 months ago
Don’t go to bars in Seattle?
DarkAri@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 months ago
Maybe don’t brag about your job.
Squirrelanna@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 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 2 months ago
Guy did say it like five times in one paragraph, just in case people forgot it before they finished reading his post.

If i were a nuclear engineer, everyone around me wouldn’t hear the end of it
DarkAri@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 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 2 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.

ShinkanTrain@lemmy.ml 2 months ago
Start pronouncing it ‘nucular’, there’s no bigger turn off.
Banana@sh.itjust.works 2 months ago
RIGHT?! I’m glad I’m not the only one. It’s based on the term NUCLEUS ffs.
Venus_Ziegenfalle@feddit.org 2 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 2 months ago
Now, to be fair, nucleus it comes from the latin nuculus. It just that it sounds bad and feels bad to say
acockworkorange@mander.xyz 3 weeks ago
Dubya said nucular, must be right.
ReplicantBatty@lemmy.one 2 months ago
Nuculeus
bitjunkie@lemmy.world 2 months ago
nuculus*
Malgas@beehaw.org 2 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 2 months ago
Now go further back. Where does the latin word nucula come from?
Morphit@feddit.uk 2 months ago
Did I ax you?
Hudell@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 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.
