Thank you for sharing this! I remember liking America’s Test Kitchen and I’m commenting in hopes that I remember to watch this later when I’m able to. I’m already a big fan of using different power levels, though, which I’m guessing this is about. I wish more people would give it a shot and learn how to use it (and other little ‘tricks’) well!
Holy shit! This is how I just found out that bastard finally died! WOOHOO! 🎉
I remember seeing this meme many times over the years with the caption of “Is Kissinger even in this thing!?” I guess he was! He still lived entirely too long, though.
I don’t know what the rules are on whether or not we can say things like “I hope he fucking suffered!” or similar, sooooo, I guess I won’t say anything like that.
Some Lemmy instances have downvotes, some don’t. It varies by instance. I think most instances have/allow downvotes. Beehaw & Blahaj are two bigger ones that don’t that I can think of off of the top of my head.
Also agreed with your last bit. I’m nervous about it, too. I wish people would just be decent and… not suck, lol.
From someone in the US, smack dab in the middle of very dense Republican land (Oklahoma,) I want you to know that you’ve nailed it! You’re spot on. I wish you were exaggerating, lol.
I’m lurking through posts trying to distract myself because I’m in an overwhelming amount of pain, and this comment of yours just made me actually laugh out loud a bit. Thank you for that! Especially the ‘putting on Groucho Marx glasses to defend your own point pretending to be someone else’ part. That whole situation, and the way you just described it as if it were happening in a bar instead of on a forum, just amuses me way too much. Also, I just accidentally typed “anuses” instead of “amuses,” which also amused me way too much…
Anyway the point of my rambling is you’re fucking funny and I appreciate you, dammit.
YAAAY!!! Thank you so much for sharing this with us. I’m so glad he’s got a nice, good home and is happy and at a healthier weight. That makes me happy.
You said a “jackdaw is a crow.” Is it in the same family? Yes. No one’s arguing that. As someone who is a scientist who studies crows, I am telling you, specifically, in science, no one calls jackdaws crows. If you want to be “specific” like you said, then you shouldn’t either. They’re not the same thing. If you’re saying “crow family” you’re referring to the taxonomic grouping of Corvidae, which includes things from nutcrackers to blue jays to ravens. So your reasoning for calling a jackdaw a crow is because random people “call the black ones crows?” Let’s get grackles and blackbirds in there, then, too. Also, calling someone a human or an ape? It’s not one or the other, that’s not how taxonomy works. They’re both. A jackdaw is a jackdaw and a member of the crow family. But that’s not what you said. You said a jackdaw is a crow, which is not true unless you’re okay with calling all members of the crow family crows, which means you’d call blue jays, ravens, and other birds crows, too. Which you said you don’t. It’s okay to just admit you’re wrong, you know?
Good call! I hadn’t thought of that factor; even though my English keyboard does that, too. I can’t type random things it didn’t know until it was taught like “BLARGH” without it auto-capitalizing the entire thing, like it just did here.
Which is extra hilarious when it’s more nonsense memey things like “SQUART” or “VAGANAINIA” or “PREGANTE” or “DIYUCK” that my friends and I would spam each other with. Looking through the list of words it added to my ‘personal dictionary’ was hilarious. I struggle to get it to type all that nonsense in lowercase and it tickles me!
Yeah, I see people use commas as pauses where commas definitely aren’t supposed to go and that make no sense whatsoever (to me, anyway, but I know not everyone has the same education, resources, etc.) all the time. I think that’s part of what’s going on here.
It sounds like our brains work very similarly, fellow random-parentheses-using scatterbrain! I’m both glad I’m not alone and also sad that you experience this frustrating shit, too, haha. I feel for you.
I much prefer the way you break up your thoughts, by the way. It flows better, makes more sense, and reads in my head voice more like it would if you were speaking (to me, anyway!)
