  It’s also been shown that people often are bad a reporting accurately. So, your results may not be accurate just from that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨just a little⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Also applicable to RFK, Jr.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Steal Her Look⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I see Cece’s fashion has spread to Lemmy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bat Identification Guide (by @bedupolker.bsky.social )⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s close enough.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sea Turtles⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s from the show The IT Crowd. No bad episodes in the mix. Some better than others, obviously, but I don’t skip any episodes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sea Turtles⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I loved that character. That actor is hilarious. Of course, the writing on that show was hilarious, in general.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's important⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I totally agree with your whole position. This isn’t a score keeping exercise. When you spend time with someone, you should feel happy. Not necessarily all the time, but you shouldn’t feel drained, angry, sad, anxious, or self conscious the majority of the time. A significant part of your mental health comes from what you do and who you are with. People need to learn what they can handle and set healthy boundaries. I’ve cut out significant people from my life, people who made no effort to contribute to my happiness because they were only focused on their own for YEARS. I don’t have time for that. I’m glad I learned this in my younger years.

  That’s a long-ass party. I would have eaten all of your cheese in that timeframe. All of it. Do you have anymore?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Threw a wrestling watch party, made special food, and was very disappointed in the outcome.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Two things:

  • Did your friends know you were going to have a bunch of food and they were expected to eat it?
  • Was your party at a time that people normally eat?

  I find that if it’s too early/late or if you didn’t tell them what was expected, your results are suboptimal. Could just be your friends, though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Button⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes, autocorrect got me. Fuckin’ hell.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Button⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  None of the ones I know about. IRB is never going to approve that. Impersonate a masque and you might have a shot.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon makes a deal with a demon⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Salt doesn’t stop angels, according to the lore.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨P.E.N.I.S.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Also, we’d have to hear them pronounce it to know if it was an acronym or an initialism, if my understanding is correct.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨P.E.N.I.S.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I recognized the name, but couldn’t place it until I heard the voice.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Centipedes Don't Fuck⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m assuming he’s male, but no females are collecting his packets.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Normal⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Probably Alexander, if there’s a gram of accuracy there.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Edison⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  He would consider that a compliment, no doubt.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I had to block so much yiff when I first joined Lemmy. I knew it was out there, but I didn’t realize just how much until Lemmy. Maybe I blocked it gradually over time at Reddit and didn’t realize how much it was in total, but I felt like there wasn’t as much there.

  I try not to judge their journey, but I have no need to join them on it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If Sean Evans from Hot Ones wound up with an ulcer could he claim a workplace injury?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Nope, but I hope they leave you alone so you can go back to enjoying Lemmy. Cheers, mate!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If Sean Evans from Hot Ones wound up with an ulcer could he claim a workplace injury?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’d rather listen to an orgy of deaf zoo animals.

  That’s what you said when I asked you if you’d enjoy going to listen to The Beatles live in their heyday. I’m beginning to think that’s just what you’re into.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Face / Off?⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes, but even unattractive people can take care of themselves. He looked unwell.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Face / Off?⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Doesn’t he look old and terrible now? I thought I saw a picture of that somewhere.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Gameplay mechanics were also a lot better with more replayability.⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I have 1000 games, but I still replay a bunch of them over and over, just at a less rapid pace.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Gameplay mechanics were also a lot better with more replayability.⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  When I was a kid, some piece of computer hardware came with some game demos. There was one called Taskmaker. It was not good graphically, but I really enjoyed it. It allowed access to three areas, I think. I played so much that I was able to beef up my character significantly. I was eventually given the full game. I played it so much. I tried bribing all of the NPCs to see what they’d say/do. There was a text box where you could type spells into. The normal progression of the game didn’t really give you many of them, but bestowing stuff to NPCs was one way to learn some.

  Anyway, I found an abandonware version of it a while back and installed it on an old Mac virtual desktop. It still holds much of the same magic for me. I don’t have time to bribe every NPCs now, but I remember a lot, and google helps me with the rest.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Should this go in /c/Frugal?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I enjoy the warmth and then the coolness. Why would I ruin a sweat setup like that?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Should this go in /c/Frugal?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  You must carry around a lot of spare pairs of pants.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Everything to keep disguise⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  That mole was coming right for you! That angel saved your life!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tale as old as time⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I agree. TOS has some interesting characters and fun moments, but I just can’t get into like I get into TNG. TNG is a series I can watch start to finish and all the movies and then start right over and watch it all again. TOS is one I might re-watch every 5+ years to refresh my memory, but I’ll put it on exclusively while I’m doing something else so I don’t waste my attention. My Dad loves TOS and TNG, and regularly references TOS, expecting me to remember episode names and whole plot lines. Oops.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Who is the one movie/comic supervillian you all agree with ?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Tim Curry from Home Alone 2.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I have just joined lemmy. What should I do next?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I go the other way and hide the communities I don’t want to see (e.g., I’m not into yiff). I do subscribe to ones I want to see, too, but mostly I view all with some filtered out. New communities are being developed every day and I might miss some with the subscribe method.
