No, the door of a residential bathroom has a specific purpose, besides the normal door-related ones. It’s a vacant/occupied sign.

Our smallest unit of weight is the ounce, which is 28g, and as much as Americans hate metric, we hate fractions more.
- Comment on Be The Sunshine ☀️ 2 weeks ago:
You can say that, but there are practicalities here. Where I live, it is highly unusual for someone to be going the speed limit on the freeway. It is completely unfeasible for cops to try to do anything to curtail that on an individual basis, so only the people doing truly dangerous things tend to get pulled over. I just play zebra and enjoy blending into all the other people going 15 over.

Someone’s gotta tell modern fruit-namers that portmanteaus are not a requirement.
- Comment on The Cock-of-the-rock is one of the most difficult Brazilian birds to find in the world. 5 weeks ago:
One of the brazilian most difficult to find birds doesn’t seem very competitive.

This just in, Lemmy user doesn’t understand that analogies are imperfect.

You’ve been brainwashed, the original bit was that everyone thought it was Berenstein, when it’s actually Berenstain as depicted in the image.

What do you mean?
- Comment on Medicinal Big Mac 2 months ago:
Because it’s a direct parody of a culturally relevant AI image. Are you expecting someone to break out the oil paints in order to make a legible slop reference?

It was pretty clear from context.

Nah, this kind of display is called a dump bin. It’s meant to look like a chaotic jumble, but doing it with jars seems like a bad idea.

Fine, as the quantity of waffle approaches zero, the syrup to waffle ratio approaches infinity.

What about “(I’m No) Superman” by Lazlo Bane, aka the Scrubs theme song?

President of Sand Planet has big human arms?! My first instinct is that that sucks, but my second instinct is that it rules.
- Comment on No Black Friday deal for loyal/previous customers 6 months ago:
I deal with this at one of my jobs. We offer the moon to new customers, but existing customers are constantly getting screwed over. People complain about it constantly, but corporations have no incentive to reduce the amount of money they’re receiving from you, which could open the doors to losing income from every other customer who decides to ask, when they can just roll the dice on whether you decide to go through the hassle of leaving. It’s scummy and I don’t agree with it on a personal level, but the agent you’re talking to has no power to change the system.
- Comment on Better safe than sorry 7 months ago:
The thing that gets me is that calling it a skill feels like a stretch. You need like 4 pieces of information to read an analog clock, most of which can be gleaned from looking at it. Sure, you might not be able to read one instantaneously without practice, but it isn’t exactly calculus.

I think a miter/chop saw would be the best tool for the job, if we’re in the realm of power tools.

I’ve never seen an Australian do the American thing of assuming the person they’re responding to is from their country before. For most of the English speaking world, higher latitudes = further from the equator.

Just because you keep your step stool next to the toilet doesn’t mean you’re Squatty Potty-ing.
- Comment on Australian's criminal history went viral after annoying the wrong repair guy 11 months ago:
It must be harder than it seems, Louis was encouraging people to make their own version last year to no apparent avail. Makes me wonder how the pedophile guy figured it out in the first place.
- Comment on egg 11 months ago:
He’s referencing a legitimate talking point about birth control, and in that light his comment made perfect sense. The whole second half of this thread reads like you got whooshed and then double downed after you realized what happened.

Your second example is a perfectly worded admonishment, if the claims are true. Sunlight is the best disinfectant and all that.
