I am glad cats were left out of the controversy. Cats are cute and rule the world.

I LOVE dogs, really, but after adopting 2 cats I just think they are very hard work. Still have a dog but he needs atetion all the time, gets sad, want to go for walks etc. Cats? If you try to pet them too much they bite you. Also, litter boxes

nyoooom,

A lot of people try to raise and interact with cats like they do with dogs, but that’s not really the best way as they will react differently and everyone gets frustrated. A lot of people think that cats don’t like to cuddle and just want to be left alone which is completely wrong.

There is plenty of content on YouTube which helps to better understand how they think.

spencer,

The thing with cats is that they just kinda know themselves and offer you the deal of “yeah these are the three nice things I like to do and the three annoying things I like to do and if that jives with you, we’ll work. Otherwise, I guess just let me back outside and I’ll go back to eating birds and shit.” So every cat owner is like “yeah sure he vomits in my shoes every 2-3 days so I just turn them upside down when I take them off but he likes to sleep on the couch beside me when I watch TV and that’s our special time, you don’t really need to get it.”

I almost swear I could go digging in my closet and find the comically oversized Osiris skate shoes I had in high school in 2010

Gif. Obviously.

original_reader, in Trying to pay rent these days...

This is not a meme, but a reminder of a terrible time and this particular event. Post it in a history community, but not here. Why would we find something so sad funny?

It is in bad taste. To say the least.

Lauchs,

Yup, I messed up and didn’t realize some folks wouldn’t read the caption below.

Next time I’ll have the caption included in the picture so as to avoid confusion.

WillFord27,

I don’t see a caption on Sync.

Lauchs,

Interesting! Does Sync usually not display captions/titles of posts?

glitch1985,

https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/4a402e2b-03fe-44b9-bb57-3baeab8cd140.png

It has the title but if you had some other text it doesn’t show up.

Bakersfield,

It doesn’t show up in Boost for Lemmy on Android either.

papalonian,

Must depend on appearance settings. I’m using boost on Android as well and I saw the title

TunaCowboy,

Despite the rustled jimmies in this thread, I don’t really care what people post in a fucking ‘memes’ channel. However, you should know the caption does show up in sync and doesn’t make it any better. This might help clear things up:

lemmy.world/comment/4174363

Lauchs,

I guess OP just had a glitch or some other bug.

original_reader, (edited )

The caption is there. But that doesn’t even matter. That isn’t the point. Point is the attitude towards the image, what it stands for and that it shouldn’t be used like this.

Using images of people suffering to make fun of a current situation is insensitive and disrespectful to the people who were suffering at the time. It also trivializes the situation and makes light of something that is serious and important. Essentially it isn’t ethical to use an image like this to make a point like yours.

It’s similar to someone posting a picture of a starving child and captioning it with “how I feel when I’m on diet.” It’s inappropriate, disrespectful and offensive.

Frankly, this post should be deleted for the same reasons.

sederx,

Jesus fucking Christ is this Sunday school or something? Just move on if you don’t get it

sederx,

I found it funny.

Gif. The G is for Graphic

elint,

Yes, that’s why we pronounce JPEG as Jay-Pheg.

ray,

Acronyms are not typically dependent on the pronunciation of the words for which their letters stand. Here's a brief look at how a few common acronyms would be pronounced if they were:

  • JPEG -> jfeg
  • LASER -> less-ear
  • SCUBA -> scub-aah
  • NATO -> nut-oh
  • ROM -> Rome

I just read it as it appears, phonetically, like any other word. Gif.

apotheotic,

That approach must create quite a comical result when you read words like “priest” or “social”

But yes, Gif (g like get) is the correct option

Rhaedas, in How do y'all say GIF?

Those who say it with a hard G must also say JFEG using the same logic. I'm fine with someone saying it either way, it's been around so long that I think the choices tend to be regional (aka BBS era).

NoIWontPickaName,

How would you pronounce JFEG other than J-Feg

elint,

The file format is JPEG (or JPG). Its commonly pronounced “jay-peg”, but if we demand that GIF is a hard-G because of “Graphics”, then we must abide JPEG being pronounced “jay-feg” or “jay-pheg” because of “Photographic”.

Stupidmanager,

I know, English is hard. It’s ok that you’re wrong, or to put it nicely, confidently incorrect.

JPEG lacks the ph (eff) sound because, well you know, there is no ‘h’ in JPEG and that changes the pronunciation rules. based on your argument, we’d also pronounce picture as ficture. Or penis as fenis.

So, a+ for effort, but F for accuracy.

Fun tidbit though. Person, penis, and peg, all follow different pronunciation rules because the consonants that follow.

blanketswithsmallpox,

You’re just describing Midwest hot dish…

electrorocket,

I tried that once just because I had both, and they were both yellow. I can’t believe how nasty it was. It was one of very few of my creations that I had thrown out. I think the smushy and popping textures together wrecked my brain.

Alexstarfire,

Better than raisins.

NotSpez,

Now I really want to try that
