Yeah, but the point of the thread is it’s not an automatic death sentence.

It’s because he doesn’t have them.
- Comment on Anon preps for a hurricane 2 days ago:
I’d say it’s more a burden for the person making the claim that goes against reality. Imminent death is not in the least a common progression of getting knocked out.

No dress rehearsal today, it’s the stage manager’s nap time, go practice your lines for a few hours.

Bless you for sharing this.
- Comment on Why don't we just gather up all the ocean's trash and all the nonrecyclables, put them in a rocket, and launch it into the sun? 3 weeks ago:
The problem is slowing it down to any speed that would end up with it dropping into the sun is going to take more effort and be more difficult than firing it out of the solar system. It isn’t practical.

Right?! Don’t these people know there’s a finite amount of attention people have, and posting stuff that isn’t doom and gloom is just going to squeeze out the important stories that are now impossible to read and process.

How’d the professor like it? Sounds like an interesting topic, I’d hope it was a good grade.

Well, you’re going to have a bad time on the internet, where the vast majority of people aren’t interested in catering their speech to a general audience to your or anyone’s individual preferences. The “general audience” aspect of public forums on the internet is why I’m not directly addressing you - I, nor I doubt many others here, give two shits that using a bit of hyperbole or exaggeration, particularly when making a flippant comment about something as trivial as how old a meme is, gives @three@lemm.ee the ick.
At any rate, I can’t be bothered to take this thread as seriously as you, so I’m going to be disengaging now.

Building your qualifications to teach advanced courses in being blasé?
- Comment on Anon has a back injury 5 weeks ago:
The main point they were making is that the meme is particularly old, pre-dating the modern Internet - the dominant medium of memes. As such, you could certainly say, perhaps somewhat hyperbolically, that it’s one of the first. Not sure why some people expect whatever another writes in an internet comment to be 100%, to-the-letter, literally true, when that’s not at all how we use language from day to day.

They didn’t say it was “the first.”

Ok…?

Sounds like a qualification for Cirque du Soleil.

I’m in my mid 30s and heard this rumor in middle school, it’s definitely old. At the time it was supposedly Marilyn Manson who did it.
- Comment on Why don't we have cool vending machines in the US? 5 weeks ago:
Growing up in the south eastern US vending machines were a common sight in a number of public spaces, and they were completely fine. No idea what third-world parts of the country the rest of these people grew up in.

This may have changed since they seem to alter how these things work from time to time, but I’ve found that if you just keep getting one captcha after another, and you know you’re not making errors, try solving them slowly.

I’d love to work in Antarctica. I’d never pass the psych evaluation, though. Would be just my luck I’d have one of my major depression episodes and decide it’s a good idea to go freeze to death in the frozen desert. Given how great my last few days have been, it honestly doesn’t sound like a terrible idea now.

Plato wasn’t writing in some long-dead obscure language that we only have vague translations of, it was Greek. It’s not a matter of interpretation.
