I went on “vacation” with my mom three times in the last two years. It was like tending to a small child. Constant care. Not fun. I decided I will only have vacations to myself for the next three years.

Also, wow. I hope you’re having better days these days!

It doesn’t have to be. Every morning do one push up, and one push up only. After 20 days, up it to two push ups.

I can activate Google Assistant and ask it to tell me the time.

(No, I don’t like Google Assistant to constantly listen for a wake-up word. I had two previous bad experiences with that.)

What about a w-bomb?

elbarto777, 6 months ago to asklemmy in What's the consensus on swearing here

I fucking direct my swears to whomever the fuck I want. Fuck you. And merry fucking hannukah.

elbarto777, 6 months ago to asklemmy in What's the consensus on swearing here

When speaking, saying “fucking” is often simply a replacement for “uhh”.

Fucking what now?

Oh wait…

Stupid comment. You’re referring to the Spanish R, or in a language with a similar R sound.

Imagine if a French or German person told you that their R is the only way to pronounce the R.

This kind of misguided gatekeeping is exhausting.
