YESSSSS COUNTRYBALLS

xusontha, in I hate to tell ya...

I mean isn’t Hell the spookiest of Halloween parties, given the number of skeletons?

WorkIsSlow,

When bodies deteriorate only the bones stick around. This is because only our fleshy goo travels to the afterlife.

Hell is filled with piles of goo people.

xusontha,

big ol’ flamin blobs of goo

that is unreasonably funny to me

darkpanda,

Well, inside all of us there’s a skeleton trying to get out.

Godort, in She speaks from the fart

Farts are universally funny. Like sex jokes, they transcend time and language.

In fact, the oldest joke we have discovered was a fart joke:

Something which has never occurred since time immemorial… A young woman did not fart in her husband’s lap.

Compare that to a different joke from about 200 years later:

A dog entered into a tavern and said, 'I cannot see anything. I shall open this one

It doesn’t matter where or when you’re from, nor does it matter what language you speak, farts are funny and will continue to be funny forever.

AngrilyEatingMuffins,

I used perplexity to find some more ancient fart jokes

One example of an ancient fart joke can be found in Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales. In the Miller’s Tale, two characters, Nicholas and Absalom, are competing for the same girl. Nicholas decides to humiliate his rival by waiting at the window for Absalom to beckon the girl. Just when he does, Nicholas lets out a fart with a noise as loud as a clap of thunder, almost overcoming Absalom with its force.

Another example from classical times appeared in "Apocolocyntosis" or "The Pumpkinification of Claudius," a satire attributed to Seneca on the late Roman emperor. In this text, a character named Nicholas lets out a fart as great as a thunderclap, which almost blinds the person struck by it.

The medieval Latin joke book "Facetiae" by Poggio Bracciolini also includes six tales about farting, although the specific jokes are not detailed in the search results

I’m assuming the bread pumpernickel which literally means “farting Nicholas” must be related to these jokes. Why does Nicholas always fart?

MokMokFIsh, in Killed vs Died

i live in the uk and the amount of times people srgue about the bbc being politically biased is funny

skizzles,

This is probably just a use of different words to not sound repetitive.

Before anyone starts screaming at me. I’m not taking sides.

The whole thing is fucked and I don’t know enough about it all to form an educated opinion. Ethnic genocide does appear to be what’s happening with my limited knowledge and that is insane, but even in this day and age I am not surprised in the least. That’s as far as my opinion goes on the matter.

This is probably just a use of different words to not sound repetitive.

Then the BBC could have said something like “More than 500 people were slain in Gaza.” They should have used a word that implies that the more than 500 people were actively put to death somehow, like killed or slain.

Keep in mind that the BBC are journalists; they literally do this for a living. Even if it was an innocent mistake, which I 1000% do not believe it is, it would still be an egregious fuck-up. But we know it’s not a fuck-up…

520,

Then the argument would have been about died/slain.

No one is imagining 500 deaths in a string of events is people peacefully passing away in the night.

WalrusDragonOnABike,

It would have been killed/slain, which are pretty equivalent.

Passive vs active language does make a difference in emotion reaction to things.

Unaware7013,

This is probably just a use of different words to not sound repetitive.

Then why do they only do it in the same way, every time, and for other western powers? For example, this is from 2005:

"On the March 18 CBS Evening News, reporter Byron Pitts gave these figures: “Today, U.S. deaths number more than 1,500. There are no exact figures for Iraqi fatalities, but estimates are for every American killed, 11 Iraqis died.” In other words, more than 16,500 Iraqi deaths."

Once is an accident, twice is a coincidence, but decades of examples are clearly a system pattern.

Omega_Haxors, in If you only criticize civilian casualties when Palestine resists, then your concern isn't civilian casualties. Your concern is Palestine resisting massacre.

AI_toothbrush, in Thanks, Windows, I didn’t want my computer to turn off, anyway

Never post a windows meme on lemmy. Grave mistake. I use nixos btw

bleistift2,

I couldn’t find a Windows meme community (interesting), so I thought, an anti-Windows meme is kind of a Linux meme.

asexualchangeling,

There needs to be an anti windows community, that way the linux communities can settle down a bit and actually discuss linux

dansity,

i use gentoo btw, you still need to learn. You are not a real linux user if your kernel is not compiling for 3 hours.

cows_are_underrated,

I use Arch btw.

Wutchilli,

Do you care to explain why the country/polandball meme format is a nazi meme format?

xusontha, (edited )

Oh great it’s you again

regardless of the absurdity of what you’re saying, do you even know what nazis are? I’m not sure cuz you said this:

Nazism was basically just liberalism taken to its conclusion. Rich people get to live in comfort as poor people die in a mass genocide. (lemmy.ml/comment/4865175)

Omega_Haxors, (edited )

Yes it me again, and I’m going to continue calling out problematic shit when I see it. Silencing tactics don’t work on me because i’m morally in the right and know it. This combined with your reaction to my other post proves that your siding with nazism goes more than passive and i’m not going to just sit around and watch as you influence the culture of Lemmy towards fascism.

xusontha,

silencing tactics

what like using evidence and calling you out when you’re wrong?

siding with nazism… influence the culture of Lemmy towards facism

bro are you high all I do is post Star Trek memes which is like the OPPOSITE side of the political spectrum

also your argument about the polandball supporting nazis first doesnt make sense secondly you’re doing the same thing but with tankies by advocating for the .ml instance

Omega_Haxors, (edited )

Yes I am, because unlike your genocidal ideology, the “tankies” are actually on the right side of history.

Anticommunism is indistinguishable from profascism.

Comment105,

What the fuck is wrong with you? “tankies are on the right side of history”? Grab a shotgun and blow your face off.

xusontha,

I… don’t even know what to say to this it’s so wrong

Omega_Haxors, (edited )

Nah it’s not wrong, you’re just a fascist. Go post your fash shit on a different instance. I set up here specifically to get away from that.

xusontha,

If you say things that aren’t facist are facist then I don’t think you can ever get away from facism

Omega_Haxors,

I looked more into it and it’s even worse than I originally knew about. Jesus fucking Christ. Yep i’m out.

xusontha,

At this point you’re just baiting cuz you have nothing to argue

accideath,

What the fuck happened here?

xusontha,

Pretty much just read this thread and this one

tankie: red fascist

AI_toothbrush,

They didnt even mention communism. Tankies are a totally different thing. I dont care if you think communism is a good economical system what i care about is that you support regimes killed millions of innocent people some of which were my family because they lived in the soviet union. Fuck the soviet union fuck the chinese communist party and fuck tankies. All tankies are delusional. There was no equality in that shithole called the soviet union. I dont ususally namecall and try to be politically correct but i cant be when someone supports something so vile and evil.

Omega_Haxors,

Let me guess, they took your slaves?

AI_toothbrush,

What are you even talking about? I feel like you live in your own little bubble. I know people whos family members got shipped to work camps because they harvested theyre own crops because they were dying from starvation. And nobody had slaves in eastern europe for a very long time. The onlg slaves in modern times were the poor people who worked all day for nothing in a dictatorship. Im not saying todays america is much better for example but in europe a lot of places are much better.

HerbalGamer,

hey so fellow tankie here…

why is this a nazi meme? genuinely confused.

Omega_Haxors,

You seriously think i’m going to fall for that…?

HerbalGamer,

Sorry, you can privately message me if that makes you more comfortable.

cows_are_underrated,

Bro, I have read enough about Nazis and even spoke with people who lived during this time. That’s devinetly not a Nazi meme. If you think this is a Nazi meme than explain me how taking land from the sea is the same as killing 6 millions Jews, millions of ost European civilians, conquering the entirety of Europe and building a terror based dictatorship?

Comment105,

“Morally in the right” says the communist and moral relativist with a penchant for arranged marriages and ridiculously stupid trials of manhood.

TvanBuuren,

Tell me please how this is a nazi meme format.
