Head to your local gen aviation airfield. It’s like Whole Foods for gasoline aficionados!

One, flashbacks to being about four or five and deciding to try that teacup full of something my dad was using to clean a carburetor or something.
Two, in junior high I did a science project to see what would kill seedlings quickest: bleach, windex, or gasoline. Water was the control.
massive, unpredictable spoiler
It was the gasoline. I was a weird kid.

(Yes, I know about It Runs in the Family. It’s not bad, but it’s not the same.)
- Comment on Mom wasn't always right 1 week ago:
Yes, but the 400 had it on a spillproof membrane like you’d see on a fast-food cash register. The later models improved the layout but most had much worse switches than the 800.

- You can tell because the keyboard doesn’t actively make you want to kill and/or die.

My kid just got me to try Beat Saber on her VR headset.
Nobody told me there would be crouching.
- Comment on Glen Powell spotted on the set of The Running Man - and yes, he was running 3 weeks ago:
I don’t know why, but Glen Powell always makes me think of a wish.com Ed Norton who’s being treated like a wish.com Brad Pitt.
So I guess yeah, he’s a wish.com Tyler Durden.

Gotta trust the experts on something like this.

You’re not wrong, but I was very much regretting my decision to search for giraffe centaurs at all, and Ms. Curly was a safe enough option with the proportions I was trying to communicate.
- Comment on Jesus Christ 3 weeks ago:
You’re closer to right than you know. This is “The Olive Press” by (in)famous white-Jesus Mormon painter Del Parson. The man paints Jesus through a very, very thick lens of the American Mountain West.
For the record, I had to look up the specific painting, but I grew up LDS, and red-robe white-guy mullet Jesus is a Parson trademark.
- Comment on Before buying this printer, I made a quick search to confirm that it has wifi connectivity... (the algorithm lied to me) 3 weeks ago:
If it does work, though, it’ll be pretty sweet.
- Comment on From moms pov 3 weeks ago:
The fact that it’s all rehearsed and refined and outlined and stage-managed only makes it slightly less bonkers. This is the face these people are CHOOSING to present to the world.
Gets repetitive after a while, though.

- Comment on Has Fast Food Gotten Worse, or Am I Just Getting Old? 3 weeks ago:
The only thing I’ll say there is that with burgers you can sometimes get out over your skis and take a tumble. A lot of sit-down places think some giant watery meatball is a good burger. While photogenic, it is not necessarily good, and a short-order smashed patty or (smashed patties) generally taste a lot better and are easier to eat.
The best burgers are almost certainly not fast food burgers, but the worst burgers aren’t either.

But in a centaur, the human torso is placed where the horse neck would be.
Yes, with a perfectly normal human torso. Put a human torso in the same spot and…
BOOOORRRING!! 🤣
- Comment on Is there a 'ama' sub? 3 weeks ago:
I had to look it up too, but it was Victoria. She was great as a celebrity wrangler to make sure they understood the vibe and would roll with the weirdness. I’m not entirely sure we need a Victoria just yet either, LOL.
- Comment on Is there a 'ama' sub? 3 weeks ago:
The !askmeanything@lemmy.ca would be good, as would !asklemmy@lemmy.world or !casualconversation@lemm.ee. Also, I am going to gently push back on the idea that you have to make a new community because Reddit has a similar one. An AMA is not philosophically different from the posts on any of several other text-based-engagement communities. If AMA posts start to crowd out the “original” content, then a new /c is warranted, but we just fragmented everything after the APIpocalypse that discoverability is still a pain requiring steps that shouldn’t be necessary if people just want to communicate.
- Comment on I swear to god 3 weeks ago:
Neither. The neck is the long part, and do horse-based centaurs have horse necks?
Giraffe centaurs would be underwhelming.
- Comment on Tweety. I like stretching 3 weeks ago:
I’m gonna need some clarifications here. Does the stick/cone/tube go for the ride? How far up the ass does it need to go? Is this a proper insertion or a wedding-cake photo-op mushing situation? If it’s insertion, can the ice cream be modified to fit the butthole, or must the butthole adapt to the ice cream? There’s a lot of moving parts and complex interplay going on here.

Gabriel: He’s gonna put his dick in it.
God: I put my dick in it!
Joseph: Who put his dick in it?
Mary: Don’t worry about it.
- Comment on Robert Zemeckis wants to make another Back to the Future movie (with a twist) 5 weeks ago:
This is one more way for him to say, “Fuck off. We’re not doing a sequel or reboot.” Maybe with a little dash of, “but if you still wanted to throw some money at me…”
- Comment on Mary and the Curry 5 weeks ago:
Upvoted partly because it’s funny, but largely because it still scans.
- Comment on The Divine Dick 5 weeks ago:
Mormons theology also pretty much just cuts the Gordian knot proposed in this post by saying, “Fuck yeah he’s got a dick. Uses it ALL THE TIME.” I believe that a “perfected body” was the verbiage I was taught in Sunday School. Tritheistic heresy, Shmitheistic Shmeresy…

Intensifiers, goddammit!
- Comment on Stop whining. Do it yourself. 5 weeks ago:
This. All of us Reddit Refugees (me included) fucked up when we arrived and put the cart before the horse. Lemmy is like a small town; you may simply not get all the specific communities you want, but there’s probably somebody with a similar enough interest that they’ll talk to you about the stuff you like, and they probably have things that you would like to talk about if you saw it. Higher-level categories should do fine unless and until a certain type of content starts to annoy other users by its sheer prevalence.
As someone else said, Lemmy is the niche community.
- Comment on Gandalf failed to consider incest, half my ancestors are related baby 5 weeks ago:
I heard some of that was a bit of humor that didn’t quite translate, but I’m sure it’s at least in the back of your mind, and you might want to consider whether being 3rd cousins, double-4th cousins, and quntiple 6th cousins starts to add up, LOL.
I found out my stuff through ancestry to track down my biological relatives when my daughter was young, and I still have people on there where the percentage makes zero sense based on the documentation I can find, unless there’s a bunch of stuff farther back piling on the centimorgans.

Sick of your shit have I become.
- Comment on Gandalf failed to consider incest, half my ancestors are related baby 5 weeks ago:
LOL, I have heritage from Newfoundland, which I learned of as an adult (the heritage that is, not the existence of the very large island in the north Atlantic).
Apparently there was nothing to do on that rock for three hundred years except fuck your cousin. Based on what I’ve seen, nowadays they fuck their cousins or move to Alberta.
