Varyk,

Aaaaaaa hahahaha fuck you,yes, I love this

Varyk,

What’s an example of a universal playlist?

Varyk,

Anemoia - nostalgia for a life you never lived.

Apparently made up for the experience you’re describing.

Lemmy, is there a treasured piece of content that you stop yourself from going back to "too often" so as to not dilute it?

I do this for a few things, movies in particular. For me most recently, I’m planning on watching Bo Burnham’s Inside this weekend, for the first time since I watched it shortly post-release. I wasn’t really intending to wait checks watch nearly 3 years on that one, but I definitely felt it needed some space before a...

Varyk,

I replay Morrowind maybe every few years, and I’m able to enjoy it every time I play.

As for movies, I saw barbarian in the theater and I have waited to watch it again even though I loved it, until just last month when I reunited with an old friend who loves weird horror movies, and it was so good. We actually watched terrifier also, and I hadn’t seen that in a couple years. It was so much fun to watch those movies sort of fresh with someone I knew would enjoy them, there were parts in both movies that surprised me again.

Does taking my glasses off to 'let my eyes rest' actually have any meaningful effect? Or am I just making my eyes work harder?

Started wearing glasses full-time a few months ago and I usually take them off during my lunch break because, well I’m mainly looking at my sandwich and I’ve been told it’s good to let your eyes ‘relax’ as such....

Varyk,

I only use my glasses to let my eyes rest, so I think it’s the opposite.

Anecdotally.

Varyk,

Really?

I’m not asking this facetiously, can you explain how?

I find the cropped version funnier.

Varyk,

No worries, nobody expected you to

Varyk,

I didn’t know that would hit so close to home.

I’m glad you find this fun.

Varyk,

Varyk,

Okay, thank you for the explanation, I think I understand the structure now.

It’s a non-sequitir with an extra step, and despite the setup only making sense preceding non-sequitirs, the setup is used constantly with things people commonly talk about, are obviously popular or easy to get.

I think the knock knock setup makes sense because it very clearly sets the audience in a framework, encouraging you to inquire about the situation that you interrupt by subverting expectations via a punchline.

The no one line seems more like gilding a lily, a hat on a hat, superfluous.

It doesn’t add much to a joke or non-sequitur, it’s just pointing out that this thing from left field is from left field, while of course if the statement was from left field then you wouldn’t need to explain that it was from left field.

Weird.

I understand it better now, and I appreciate your explanation, but I’ll keep cropping these as I see them.

The no one line feels too much like a kindergartener rubbing their hands together like “I have a joke for you! My joke is a statement!”

Varyk, (edited )

I understand that it’s somehow being used incorrectly, but I’m not sure I understand that a correct usage of it would be.

Isx the joke here supposed to be “nobody has ever said girl’s hands are cold”?

Because that’s a common trope in TV shows, novels, regular conversation.

If the joke is that girl’s hands are cold, why would you need “no one”, and if the joke is that nobody would talk about girls hands being cold, then clearly that’s incorrect.

I appreciate the long explanation, I just do not understand it yet and I’ve received so many different explanations of what “no one” is supposed to mean without getting any closer to what the joke is.

And I completely agree that whatever the original meaning was is essentially lost in people just put the phrase “no one” in front of any image pretending it is a setup to a joke that it is not.

That’s why I crop these images, because there doesn’t seem to be anything semantically or comedically gained from “no one”.

It’s like putting a hat on a hat.

Varyk,

Haha oh a hundred percent I’m just blahblahing now that I found out what it’s supposed to mean.

Varyk,

Stop playing, there’s no way you understand percentages

Varyk,

Don’t cut off “I am extremely smart”, that’s definitely the best part

Varyk, (edited )

Ooh no, don’t do that.

After you finish evacuation(as near as you can tell), you wash off the mess using the bidet.

Since you haven’t just smeared the mess around and into your skin with some paper, there’s no lingering burn.

Varyk, (edited )

I thought it was about a spicy bottom after spices go out the bottom. Bidets fix that problem.

Varyk,

Bidets, folks, get a bidet, handheld bidet, no more ring of fire

Varyk,

Ditto, I don’t want to touch none of that mess down there.

All I can think when I visit a country that doesn’t use bidets regularly is that all these people using their hands for everything were very recently groping around near the wrong end of themselves.

Varyk,

With a bidet, there’s a few seconds of burning if you really went crazy with spice, then you wash off and everything is back to normal vs. using toilet paper and suffering the burn and irritated skin for hours.

That is an escape.

As soon as I used my first bidet. I realized I had escaped the filthy cycle of toilet paper redistribution.

Varyk,

Capsaicin doesn’t really affect your intestines, it’s more of a skin irritant.

So just wash off your skin as soon as it’s dirty, no burns.

This is from direct experience, i highly recommend anyone who likes spicy food(and everyone else) to get some sort of bidet rather than smearing waste on themselves with toilet paper.
