All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain.

CanadaPlus,

Man that is a pretty movie.

LucasWaffyWaf,

Funny that there’s a similar line I use, and of all things it was from a comedian on a panel show.

It’s all forgotten like hand prints on a forgotten handrail.

People will rarely remember what you said, but always remember how you made them feel.

dudebro,

This is 100% true.

freeman, in What's a quote that has stuck with you for your whole life?

“No one is going to write you were a good employee on your headstone. “

And

“Time is the one form of compensation you can never recoup. “

Meaning Time off from work is valuable, more so than the $$ value especially once you get to a certain point.

LambChop,

In the same vein:

“20 years from now, the only people who will remember that you worked late are your children"

krp, in What's a quote that has stuck with you for your whole life?

The most permanent solution is a temporary fix.

whynotzoidberg,

I’ve heard and repeated this one as, “It’s only temporary, unless it works.”

In 2004, I was working on the bridge of a ship that was going to be inspected in a few days. There was a small hole in a wall about the size of an electrical outlet with exposed wiring that I wanted to hide from the inspectors. I printed out a picture of a kitten and taped it over the hole. I visited the ship again in 2018, and the kitten was still there.

A falling knife has no handle.

I literally repeat this out loud anytime a knife falls and I think it’s become my mental stopping mechanism to make sure I don’t try to catch it.

Today,

Same! It’s saved me many fingers!

EtnaAtsume,

Well, let’s not exaggerate here. Surely it’s saved you no more than ten of them.

PorkTaco,

Why y’all dropping so many knives??

jmsw22,

I need a variant of this that stops me trying to catch them with my feet

masquenox, in given how little one vote matter, it seems to me that stripping felons of their right to vote is both petty and counterproductive if the point was to reform them into civic minded individuals ?

the point was to reform them into civic minded individuals ?

That was never the point.

kadu, (edited ) in What genres of music do Lemmites enjoy?
@kadu@lemmy.world avatar

When I was a pre-teen and teenager, pop-punk and emo were popular.

Turns out I haven’t outgrown this genre. I now listen to more music from a variety of different genres and time periods, but ultimately, 80% of my library is still early 2000’s pop punk.

Hey, you may like us over at !popheads

quinnly,

That community looks like it has literally nothing to do with emo or pop-punk

Sheltac,

Yeah I though I was gonna outgrow metal.

Boy was I wrong.

NuMetalAlchemist,

I graduated to progressive metal at some point, and I don’t think I’ll leave any time soon.

Sheltac,

That’s where I started and ended up staying alllll of these years 😁

kitsuneofinari, in How safe is it to eat raw eggs?
@kitsuneofinari@yiffit.net avatar

Pasteurized eggs are all you really need. It kills most of the germs including most of the salmonella in the egg but their is a slight chance you might still catch it, but the chances of catching it are extremely small with pasteurized eggs.

My suggestion is to crack your pasteurized eggs into a a separate bowl and make sure their is no blood. If their is any blood, either pitch the egg or cook it properly as not to waste it.

Remnants of blood will still contain salmonella. But cooking that egg will kill the salmonella.

I’ve been making Tamago Kake Gohan for the last month or two now for breakfast and it is extremely good.

rufus, (edited )

well, i was taught the salmonella is on the shell (mainly). so this would be no good advice. i don’t know anything about pasteurized eggs, though. nor north or south american eggs.

Unfortunately those aren’t common where I live. Even if I could find some on a local store it would probably be way too expensive.

masquenox, in Why is youtube recommending conservative "talking points" to me?

Right-wing media is well-funded.

AlexWIWA, in I'm being harassed by mosquitoes, how do i kill them all?

Nuclear weapons might work

Kettellkorn, in What butterfly effect have you personally witnessed?

I was golfing alone in 2017. I decided to post a picture on instagram of me golfing which I wouldn’t have posted if I had gone alone. I’m not really into social media so I’m not even sure why I did it. At the end of the round I look and see a like from a girl I hadn’t seen in years. I didn’t even know she followed me. I message her, then from there the snowball rolls into us getting married.

If I didn’t go golfing, if I wasn’t sent out on the course alone, I’d I didn’t post the picture, if she didn’t like it, none of it ever would have happened.

OmegaZX, in I need to survive for 3 days without pooping, and eating as little as possible. I can pee, but not very often. It can't take up too much space. What food do I pack?

Lemmy is good just because of this post

Everything about this post is weird and hilarious.
