- Comment on Those kids who help the ATF to see if the cashier will sell them cigs or alcohol while underage, put the kids in danger? If there a snitch that young won't they be targeted for being a snitch when old 14 hours ago:
I worked as beer rep and occasionally talked to bar owners who had gotten busted in this exact way. Never once have I ever heard them complain about the kid specifically. They’ll complain about the bartender that didn’t check ID, or the LCB in general, but I don’t think anyone his holding a grudge against those kids, and certainly not to the point of risking additional assault charges.
- Comment on How hard/fast would a baseball have to go to completely pass through a pitcher? Like leave a hole through flesh? 2 days ago:
Great idea! Using real people would just be cruel.
- Comment on How hard/fast would a baseball have to go to completely pass through a pitcher? Like leave a hole through flesh? 2 days ago:
I was thinking that might be the case, but I’m not sure what would get us closer to the minimum force required to punch holes in someone.
- Comment on How hard/fast would a baseball have to go to completely pass through a pitcher? Like leave a hole through flesh? 2 days ago:
I don’t have the knowledge of physics or math to figure it out, but I suppose we could find something that definitely can rip through someone, like a small cannonball, and figure out how much force it would put on the body, and adjust the mass and size for a baseball and see how much speed you’d need to get that amount of force?

Still less than my deductable.
- Comment on What should I do about my family? 6 days ago:
There’s a pretty good chance that you aren’t any of those terrible things you think you are. I don’t know, maybe you are, but based on how much everyone seems to dismiss you and put you down, I’d bet you have a lot more going for you than you think.
I’m really sorry that this is how your family treats you. Learn from them all the things you’d never want to put your own family through, and don’t believe them when they put you down. Sounds like you don’t feel comfortable speaking up for yourself, which is fine. There’s nothing wrong with that in general, but that might be why they keep doing it.

I lost interest when I realized that it’s not MULTISTONER.

I definitely agree with you there. Finding the communities is not easy.
I think when I first started I went through a 411 list and just started adding things that sounds interesting. Many of them still haven’t had any content since I joined, but if they ever do, I’ll catch it.
I also follow /new communities, and every now and then I’ll join a fresh one if it sounds fun. Again, they may not go anywhere, but I’ll know if they do.
Otherwise, I search for things when they randomly pop in my head, or if someone else on here mentions one in particular. Or if I’m bored, I’ll switch to all and see if anything catches my eye.
- Comment on you know what's mildly infuriating? a reposter bot 1 week ago:
Yeah. Leaving other people’s posts in first person definitely makes it feel much dirtier.

I’ve blocked maybe a dozen accounts that probably aren’t even active anymore.
Is everybody else just raw dogging ALL instead of making a subscription list?

Ahh, I knew I recognized the name, but I forgot why.
I remember seeing all those double posts back in the day and being annoyed for you! I always enjoyed reading those strips. Thank you!
- Comment on you know what's mildly infuriating? a reposter bot 1 week ago:
I’ve been conflicted about Sanitation for a while.
On one hand, it’s more content. I open Lemmy, and I see a dozen articles that wouldn’t be there otherwise. Sometimes they interest me, and I read them. In that case, I suppose I should appreciate that it was shared at all
But on the other hand, all those posts rarely turn into conversations. Sanitation isn’t hanging around to talk about what they found, they’re already looking for the next batch of posts to steal. I’ve put a tag on them, so even if I do end up reading one of their posts, I avoid commenting. At worst, I’m talking to a robot, or at best, I’m just yelling into the void.

I flip back and forth between retro games and Indy-esque games on Gamepass.
Right now I’m working on 7th Saga on SNES and Black Jacket on Gamepass.

Sharing humorous comments on the Internet, video games and smoking weed.

Hi friend!
I don’t know if this helps, but I’ve been spiraling for about a year now.

It makes so much more sense once you realize FAQ is pronounced Fuh-Queue.
- Comment on A fine dining restaurant served a quadriplegic woman a desert that read "happy birthday wheelchair" 1 week ago:
I saw a video on this yesterday.
Yes, it’s shitty and I’d be mortified if I was involved in this in any way, but I think it was a very unfortunate misunderstanding.
I think the other comment is on the right track. The most likely scenario is that the server typed in a note as to who the dessert was for, the plate decorator took it as what to write on the plate, and the expo just ran the food out to the table without knowing anything about what’s going on.
Common sense should probably make you question if Wheelchair should really be on the plate like that, but maybe it isn’t uncommon for people to request light hearted jokes on these kinds of things. I know I could get away with doing something like that for one of my friends and it being appreciated as a good natured joke, but those are people I know well, not complete strangers.
The restaurant has since acknowledged and apologized for the mistake.

Not enough trebuchet.

Having a differing opinion and engaging in conversation doesn’t need to be read as hostile.
Yes. This is exactly the point I was trying to make.

Just thought you might want to know how your particular methods of conversation come across to others.

Sure. That’s a great answer. Once.
Not every answer that’s different from yours is an argument against your answer.

And I think I’ve even heard of an actor being able to identify a medical issue because of things they had learned while playing a doctor. Of course these things CAN happen, but don’t you agree that it would be silly to assume that someone who plays a surgeon on TV would be qualified to perform surgery?
The question was “Why don’t these people do this?” Not “Is it possible for them to do this?” Every answer that you’ve “☝️🤓 Acktuallied” was a completely reasonable and accurate answer given the context of the question.

But nobody’s saying they are disqualified from it, just that they aren’t automatically experts.

And some plumbers know how to cook, and some architects know how to garden, and some sys admins aren’t socially awkward.
There’s no reason to antagonize every commenter because they didn’t bother to mention every exception to the rule.
Saying “Being A does not automatically make you qualified to be B.” does not imply that it’s impossible for A to also be B.

For the same reason the stars of Grey’s Anatomy don’t teach at medical schools.
Acting isn’t real.
- Comment on Is it creepy when lemmings go digging through post votes to see who voted how on different posts and comments? 1 week ago:
Sometimes I’ll check post and comment history if something seems a little off. For example, does this account show patterns you might see in a troll or bot?
Looking at votes though? That never even occurred to me, and even know I don’t see what the point would be.
