I've actually never had anyone in a monster truck tell me I should buy a monster truck. So...by unfortunate definition...

Imagine half your backyard being in another country. Do you think they still mow it?

Even Jesus said imagining adultery is the same as committing it. They can still think, ergo they are worthy of punishment

That won't go well either, in the long run. Advertisers will catch on to how many "people" are viewing their ads without ever clicking on anything and put their funds elsewhere.

I think I've had them once or twice and found them ok? But that was eating them like a banana. If they're more intended for cooking, that may require another attempt..

I need them to flip the whole thing. Green bananas are best bananas, and you use the ones that have overripened in your chartreuse-fueled negligence to hastily make banana bread in an effort to excuse yourself. Repeat forever.

I used to have one that did that. He was aching to get on the counter and the first time he actually succeeded, I was terrified he was about to burn himself.

Nope. He just wanted to watch me cook. Sat very politely the whole time. It became a thing. Never even asked me for any of it. He just wanted to spend time with me. I miss him.

How do you just make the bed with no pillows

@Nepenthe@kbin.social avatar

I was up at an Airbnb in Boston years ago and I still very much remember one entire third of the bed I was given being covered in different throw pillows. It was bad enough to actually be funny, and more intrusive irl than the photo I had to take would have you believe. Where the photo cuts off is the edge of the mattress.

I had to move them every night in order to go to sleep, and put them back every morning when I made the bed. I counted. There were sixteen of them. Everyone else's beds were the same way.

"Site I only still care about to laugh at thinks I am going to give it my tax information." I'll have to think real hard about that one.

Investors should themselves have a good think about how the CEO that self-reported making zero profit in over a decade as one of the most popular social media sites — a site whose ad revenue has stuttered in the face of what is officially a month long protest — can afford to be handing out money to shitposting bot farms now.

I just saw someone mentioning that on mastodon maybe ten minutes ago, and then it instantly made sense. How innovative he is. Even when he can see the fallout before engaging in it

Because homonyms are the worst part of any language and Noah Webster agrees with me.

for the metric system they don’t even use.

British people will fund pirates to steal our measuring weights, only to convert themselves 200 years later and then act like the US doesn't have a single STEM field. And then drive by the mile for a pint of milk.

hasn’t talked to me since Monday.

I would normally interpret "we're not friends" to be joking, but not if it lasts more than a couple minutes. If real, it is the end of the 4th day for OP, going on into the 5th.

Whatever happened, it wasn't something good. Offering someone money to like you probably won't improve one's social standing. Not to say almost a week of the silent treatment bodes well for problem solving, either.

Without knowing the full story, @cRazi_man, maybe the two of you should at least think over seeing someone? A lot of couples see it as a last resort, so they end up waiting til there's basically nothing to save before trying to do something about it. This is...a concern.

Clicked expecting some really awful shit. You're a good person.

Oh, you're the lifeblood of @gameart, aren't you? I tried to contribute once, but then my favorite screenshot I ever took never even federated at all and I got too discouraged.

Still sad about it, tbh. No idea if it would happen again or not. I should dig through my folders again. I don't think I have much, but I must have something

But if everyone leaves reddit, who will be left to have a tantrum at? What's left for this poor user? Sitting with their own thoughts?

I'd prefer if it weren't, though

It's not her bowl. She just turned into a bitch.

Ohhh man. This had me cackling. I mean, I feel bad for you, but it does speak to me in my soul.

The one I have now won't even eat off a plate unless it's wet food, where I'm guessing she's too excited to care about the peasant presentation.

I found out about the whisker thing and handed her fresh kibble that way just to see, and she wouldn't even touch it til I put it in her bowl for her.

It HAS to be in a bowl and it HAS to be full to overflowing, and she'd better not see any goddamn silver or she'll beat me with a coat hanger. And then the bottom goes stale because her whiskers.

It's so bright, so vivid

Yeahhh... Out of all those I tried, that was by far my favorite. So much so that I didn't even remember how unintuitive the regular website was til I had to shoot someone a quick message, fumbled uselessly through my chats, and realized I really had to google how to find my inbox on a site I've used every day for four years.

Despite his stated disinterest, there's apparently been talk about the dev re-releasing it for Lemmy instead and I can't tell if there's truth to that or not. The app store listing seems like some unnecessary work for just a placeholder.

......but I don't use lemmy, so I'll just have to see what Artemis is about.

You can ask him five questions, but he won't be answering any of them.

So can someone fill me in on WHY this bitch is so popular? I thought for sure his personality would make up for his looks and it does not. He barely really has a personality atm.

He's already starting out with a handicap because I like little noodly twinks and not hulking Creatures who are nearly twice my character's size in every direction, it could be fair to point out that I'm barely past the first act, and I do respect his political game regarding the grove. But I'm not sure I can imagine it getting better.

Does it get better? Or do people just want the bear?

And one unusually eloquent zombie who apparently showed up one day and refuses to explain himself to anyone.

But I audibly laughed. Brilliant. Thank you for this.
