Rhynoplaz,

I’m sitting in a Red Lobster parking lot because my teenage son and his friends wanted to decimate endless shrimp.

Rhynoplaz,

Thanks, but as a former teenager myself, I deserve this.

Rhynoplaz,

An equal but separate division?

Sounds good on paper, but you’ve essentially just banned them from all sports. Most schools won’t have enough trans students to form a whole team, and that’s even if they all enjoy the same sport! If by some chance you do get them all to team up, can you do that with all of the neighboring schools? They will need teams to play against.

This is a horrible, prejudiced idea.

Rhynoplaz,

For me, personally: Shit’s always been out of control, and even though it may seem like human rights are going backwards, we’re better off now than we’ve ever been. Interacting with my own kids and the college students I work with gives me a lot of hope. We really just need the boomers to stop getting nostalgic for the “good old days” when you were allowed to bully anyone who was different from you.

The kids are progress. Support them! Let them turn the world into what they what it to be, and not what we think they need.

Rhynoplaz,

If it doesn’t work on my desk I don’t see how moving to the table will help.

Rhynoplaz,

There’s so many cliches, but despite them all, Mountain Dew. Not because it makes me feel Xtreme while I’m playing Call of Duty and eating Doritos on my skateboard, it’s just a much better flavor.

Rhynoplaz,

I feel like Americans generally “know better”. The bottle says to take two, we know better than to follow the label, we take four. The button says to hold until three quarters full, we know better than to fall for that coffee stealing scheme, we crank that baby till it spills over and then try to add 10 creamers with a name we can’t pronounce. So when we hear that someone died under a bizarre circumstance, we know better.

Rhynoplaz,

It’s fine for on my phone, but the Gmail UI is trash on a PC.

Rhynoplaz,

Is there a word that means “saying lots of words, without actually saying anything”?

Rhynoplaz,

Both great words! Thank you!

Rhynoplaz,

Have you tried reading the label? I find that sums it up rather nicely.

Rhynoplaz,

Wait. Are you telling me that the US actually has a better standard for Nutritional Facts than other first world countries?

And somehow we’re STILL the fattest nation in the world?

I’m loving this format (i.imgur.com)

Image description: An image macro with two panels. In the first a bunny labeled “BIDEN” is holding a clipboard while looking up to an older woman labeled “VOTER.” In the second panel, the bunny is saying “would you like to keep Trump out of the white house” and it becomes clear that the clipboard, which is obscured...

Rhynoplaz, (edited )

Oh yeah? Me too! My class was not on the 19th floor.

Rhynoplaz,

It’s more auctioned off, and most businesses aren’t involved in the transaction. Everytime you come across an ad, (usually) Google says, “Hey, I got this person who hangs out on Lemmy and searches for Mozzarella pics WAY too much. Who wants to show him an ad?” And Sargento gives them a few pennies to try to sell you cheese. Of course, all this happens before the page loads, so algorithms are used to assign the ads and track whether or not you interacted with them.

Rhynoplaz,

And now I’m thinking about the Roman Empire.

Rhynoplaz,

Wait. Did you watch it in a massage parlor?

Rhynoplaz,

I always thought that song was “Red Alert”

Rhynoplaz,

I don’t know, this one has pretty much carried me through the last 40 years. There’s definitely worse advice.

Rhynoplaz,

Really, EVERYTHING originated from star dust, so you’re just returning it to the source!

Rhynoplaz,

Actually, that was one thing I considered. If he hadn’t become a superstar by never writing a single song, would it have changed the industry’s thoughts on using pretty faces to sell other people’s songs?
