tygerprints, to memes in Seriously who patrols old posts...

Umm that should read "You're stupid." Who patrols these posts originally to make sure the English grammar is correct? Oh that's right, nobody does. I see this mistake every single time on almost every posting anybody puts online.

tygerprints, to science_memes in It's just science.

Pretty sure they have 100 percent mortality rate as most animals do. There are some species of jellyfish that technically are immortal (capable of immortality anyway) - they revert back to a polyp stage and start life over again without dying. But every other animal species, like us humans, does have to bow down to the grim reaper at some point.

It's weird, I had to work retail with some of the crappiest elevator christmas music ever. A lot of folks complained about the music. But, I play the piano and I actually love to play those pieces at this time of year! I mean yes, they're over done and way over played on the radio and TV, but when you're the one making the music, it makes all the difference in how you feel about it.

I miss Calvin and Hobbes. I really respected Bill Watterson's work. Can anyone tell me how I can get a decal of Calvin peeing on Hobbes for my pickup truck, 'cause that would really be great.....

Yeah that's another thing I worried about as a gay male - would that happen, and how safe is it really to "go down" on someone down there. But I never had any problems or any sickness. Maybe I was just lucky and my partners were all very healthy or something.

tygerprints, to lemmyshitpost in What the hell! Let's all just go crazy!

Oh fine, let's just start pronouncing "recognize" as though there were actually a "G" in it then!! I mean where does the madness stop!!

tygerprints, to baldurs_gate_3 in What To Never Say To Someone Coming Out (BG3 Edition)

My favorite reply to someone coming out is, "who isn't." Or join the club. I've been a lifelong member.

tygerprints, to memes in Were this the ‘good ole times’ they always talk about?

That's about it. I'm white and male and I'm here to tell you, there never was a 'good old days' unless you mean a time when white men could get away with raping and killing a young kid like Emmett Till and could butcher their families and get away with it.

tygerprints, to asklemmy in I am in one of those walking boot cast things for the foreseeable future. I bought sharpies to decorate it so it isn't as terrible. How should I decorate it?

I think they should provide a pack of free sharpies with every walking cast. Well it's the holidays - go nuts with a whole Currier and Ives yuletide mural kind of thing.

tygerprints, to memes in Why? Are we not doing enough?

Oh onion, you crazy allium. Your opinions really stink ya know that?

tygerprints, to asklemmy in Can licking an iron bar get you the daily recommended amount of iron?

I saw that also but I have my doubts that you'd get much iron intake from cooking in iron pans. People used to get lead poisoning from using lead pots and pans, so - maybe it's possible. I'm not sure how much iron frying pans, for example, are pure iron.

tygerprints, to asklemmy in Why do most people refuse to accept that they are wrong

I encounter that all the time especially on public forums like this. This is a quote from an article I found about it online: According to psychologist, speaker and author Guy Winch, most people who consistently refuse to admit they're wrong do so because they have incredibly fragile egos. They clam up and insist they're right, demonstrating what experts term "psychological rigidity", as a defense mechanism.

Also I think that telling someone they are wrong comes across as a criticism about their intellect and they respond defensively by instinct. And, another reason is because people don't want to believe anything that contradicts their preferred view of the world. So if you "correct" someone they tend to act like you're attacking them or as too stupid to know what "truth" is.

It's really a telling distinction because today, most people behave in this defensive way. You don't see many people willing to concede or say, "wow that's a different point of view than I have considered, maybe it requires me to spend some thought on why I feel the way I do." Which is the real value of differing opinions; they help us re-assess and redefine the reasons why we feel the way we do.

tygerprints, to starwarsmemes in Do you support Palestine?

I support humane people everywhere. I do not support any group that uses weapons against any other group, no matter what. War mongering is only going to ensure more war mongering. What I truly support is people of greater intelligence reaching across the divide to start promoting peace and learning to live with each other.

tygerprints, to comicstrips in The Curse of the Mummy

Now that's some world class cursing! Put it in a museum!

tygerprints, to lemmyshitpost in Crunchy. Delectable.

My doctor advises me not to eat rocks or nails anymore. Also I'm not supposed to be shoving glass into my eyeballs.
