I said this in another thread-

Most Americans aren’t interested or even capable of fighting in a civil war. When you live paycheck-to-paycheck, you’re not going to abandon your family to fight on the front lines.

And a huge percentage of Americans live paycheck-to-paycheck.

Texas would have to have a draft.

Good luck with that.

And then we watched Dana Carvey do an old man on SNL and whine and complain the whole time, “wah, wah, wah. I’m an old man. Laugh at me.”

And we liked it.

My mother does not like onions.

I am glad I did not inherit that horrific genetic abnormality.

My mom was (and is) a terrible cook in many other ways, but the ‘I’m not making you anything with onions in it’ as a kid kind of sucked.

I’m just glad my grandmother was a good cook.

There is an incredible book called The Master of Go by Yasunari Kawabata, a Nobel-winning Japanese author. It’s based on the true story of a master-level Go game that took six months.

I know that doesn’t sound very interesting, but trust me. It really is.

I don’t know who runs the Jerusalem Post, but they are constantly measuring asteroids passing near Earth against ridiculous things.

World War III will be the ultimate expression of communism. After all, it will be the end of capitalism when we all go together when we go.

Thank you, OpenStars, that is very kind of you. And if I didn’t have the Lemmy equivalent of face blindness, I’m sure I would have similar nice things to say about you. You seem like a very nice person!

However, as far as Eldrich strangeness goes, worry no more! Our natural world is strange enough!

Don’t worry, we don’t want to take over the world, we only want to get revenge on those fucking crabs.

That may be the only bot whose responding to me wouldn’t annoy me.

Reminds me of the Annoy-O-Tron that Think Geek used to sell. You would hide it somewhere and it would emit a beep at a random interval.

I think there is a happy medium between that and ‘we should never have left the oceans’ and that happy medium is ‘before nuclear fusion.’
