Really, how can I stop them from eating my plants? Some don’t have leaves anymore. They are not even edible. They are even biting the cacti for some reason....
Unrelated (it's from a line of "educational stories" by author Wilhelm Busch who wasn't too subtle with his messaging)
That's unknown
It's not clear from the story. The mother in the story warns her boy about the tailor cutting thumbs off of thumb suckers and when the child doesn't listen and the mother is away, said tailor just barges in, so there is an argument for it being a mythical tailor, but an argument for it being just your regular ass tailor as well.
Unknown. Seems to be in their job description for some reason
Zis it outrageous!
We tschermans have very good humor, ja?A few days ago, I asked a philosopher to think for me, ja? He said he Kant. Isn't that funny?! KANT!
Yesterday there was a controversial movie torrent that was getting 1000s of downloads and was on the “popular this week” page, and today it’s just gone. I went to the uploader’s account page and it’s not there either. Just like it never existed....
For anyone struggling with this, two hints that might help you frame your role better:
Listening is the solution. By trying to solve what your SO told you, you are actually trying to solve the wrong problem. Their real problem is that their brain needs to say things aloud to someone in order to correctly process it's own thoughts. Therapists make a frickin' living off of that quirk of our brains and it's the actual problem they come to you with. Even better: By listening you can not only advise on solutions, you can be the solution! Neat, huh?
Listening and solving aren't mutually exclusive. If you stick to listening first, your SO might actually come to a point where your advice is wanted. Pro tip: Once their thoughts slow down, ask if they want to hear what you think about the issue. From my experience, the answer will be "yes" very often. That way, your thoughts will actually reach your SO and not get blocked by frustration outright. Yet, as with everything else: No means no. So if you get a no, don't try again, shut the fuck up, alright?
Those barbaric Brits let it stand out in the open, so untill they learn how to take proper care of it, we have declared ourselves unilaterally to be the guardians of the monument and so we're absolutely justified in taking it.
Depends. Do you have something in mind that involves your penis: Not yet, keep it in your pants.
If you hadn't anything about your penis in mind: Do not tell her anything about your penis right now.
No, you don't get it. They never said that they've got nothing to hide. So the rule must be that if you've got nothing to hide, spying is okay. But if you have something to hide, it's not okay. That means that it's okay to spy on you, but not okay to spy on criminals. Huh. This rule seems rather useless.
My 16 day old son has shown me how weirdly babies tun into middle aged men when you sit them up and their head sinks towards the shoulders. This young fellow there is another example of that.
Am I the only one not getting that reference? Whatever it is: is it mainstream enough for the Memes community? (I mean... it could be, not the first time I'm out of the loop)

Why is this sub so against jokes and more lighthearted posts?
I don’t get it, every post here that isn’t about Linux or some serious topic seems to get downvoted to hell....
