Oh no is your name a seinfeld reference? Oooooollddddd

(and me too for getting it)

the_post_of_tom_joad,

This meme just highlights for me the fact someone could make nearly the same meme for right-wingers simply by changing left to right and it would sound much like what we’re fed by the media we consume on the daily.

the_post_of_tom_joad,

Do you suppose that there is no propaganda in the media you watch?

the_post_of_tom_joad,

I get tired when i see people look down on others when they themselves have no, i mean fucking no empathetic intelligence.

You can’t even see it when i point it out.

Take a loooong look at how you came to believe youre so special to be unaffected by propaganda, or that the media in whatever (special, amazing) country you reside in does not put any out.

Is this realistic? That your country, and by extension you, are just above it all?

You aint it babe, get over yourself

the_post_of_tom_joad,

Great! I was going it would find a new audience, it’s good shit

the_post_of_tom_joad,

Lol the guy is the director of subscriptions even. It’s like asking a vampire his thoughts on blood

the_post_of_tom_joad,

Im not being super serious but its true, molyneauxs promises became a punchline but i loved the games he made. Black & White was buggy, even had a game breaking bug (wolves or something, it happened to me too) but i still lived the shit out of it, fable i played 2 times thru back to back (super, super fun but not what he promised)

That’s what i mean. A broken promise back then was a game that wasn’t as great. Not a game that didn’t even run like that Batman fiasco, or many online only games that don’t even run stable at launch, etc.

He was a simple “problem” in a better age of gaming

the_post_of_tom_joad, (edited )

My whole thing even more than (gaming which is huge) is having to relearn how to make everything work. I was (i honestly have to say ‘was’ ugh) nearly a windows ‘power user’ for awhile, maybe peaked in my skills getting hardware running, programs and games running until win7 came out and shit just worked.

Nowadays when i go back to fix shit, or even just change a setting i have to relearn how to do it. Am i crazy or do they keep moving shit now? Fucking why? I have windows cuz inertia at this point but if i have to Google how to change basic Windows settings then there’s not much stopping me from tossing a match on Windows and walking away

the_post_of_tom_joad,

I haven’t been to reddit much since the api fiasco. If it’s not too much trouble can you point me to some obvious bots so i can get a feel for what that looks like?

the_post_of_tom_joad,

Tell ya what, i bet if every production company magically disappeared tomorrow we would still have new shows. It’d start out like the early days of youtube (my favorite btw) but in my (perhaps unusual) opinion Netflix, disney, sony, et al are more a barrier to quality content than a benefit.

I mean, how many really really good things did you watch last year? What interesting, unusual things might we have seen this year if marvel 25 and spidweman 15 etc weren’t taking up all the air?

the_post_of_tom_joad,

I game, like a lot, and if windows beats me one more time i swear I’ll leave them for good. Is there a list of supported games? I just hit their site and only saw an nvidia gpx drivers too, did i simple miss the AMD stuff?

the_post_of_tom_joad,

I used to fuck with friends with my “universal remote”, and of course use my phone whenever i misplaced my own I miss that stupid feature the most

the_post_of_tom_joad,

Can’t you enable a filter list on uBlock Origin that removes all cookie consents

What what what?!?! Ive used ublock for years and i didn’t know this

the_post_of_tom_joad,

“The visual i could follow, but not your condescending attitude”

Oh man gettin sweaty in the math room

the_post_of_tom_joad,

Ah i did the thing, oops. Good luck on your negotiations :D

“Beautiful” she says, as Paul reaches out his hand…

And then i awake to another ‘overproouved’ loaf -_-

the_post_of_tom_joad, (edited )

“In all, men who averaged 4.6–7 ejaculations a week were 36% less likely to be diagnosed with prostate cancer before the age of 70

i can confidently not masturbate for the rest of my life and still not drop below this lifetime average.

the_post_of_tom_joad, (edited )

I enjoy the smaller community. Theres a chance in hell ill see, or even be involved in a conversation beyond movie references and memes.

I also like memes but yor feel me?

the_post_of_tom_joad, (edited )

S7 is the levitation one yeah? It’s the one that made me leave the show. Me wife and i called them the Charlie Brown villians cuz it looked like they were doing Augh! https://sh.itjust.works/pictrs/image/15660494-8615-441b-942c-d086fc15eb91.png

the_post_of_tom_joad,

I KNEW IT! i knew he was astroturfin me! I knew it! Where’s my cookie? But man, snoop’ll sell anything these days. It’s not like he’s hurtin’

the_post_of_tom_joad,

What if the teen men are the ones who own the machine?

the_post_of_tom_joad,

Youre not wrong but i had a job for awhile where i had about one day’s worth of work (if i busted my butt) to do over 2 glorious, unsupervised days. Their IT was slackass too. They had their own machines on lock but i could bring my own in and look at reddit, porn, whatever.

I hated my job, really hated my boss, but i never got paid to fuck off quite as hard as i did there so I look back on those times warmly.

RIP mjollnir

the_post_of_tom_joad,

Anecdote incoming: i had coincidentally put myself on hiatus from news/Reddit before the whole 3rd party app drama started the Exodus, and didn’t have a clue what was going on until about a week ago.

I think it’s a perfect time to say goodbye forever. I miss a couple smaller communities to the point i want to remember them for what they were. I don’t want to see them die firsthand.

I’ve been shitposting 12 years. Its bittersweet, I’ll truly miss it, like an old friend. i’m ripping the band-aid off.

Thanks for listening
