The average marriage lasts for 100,000 hours. If used well, you can use this time to improve the lives of hundreds of people.
A lot of people will tell you simply to “marry whoever you’re passionate...
An old post from Caroline Ellison’s tumblr, since deleted.
So a post appears in ‘ALL’ and I click on it. I’m not an aficionado of ‘sneer club’ so I don’t know what it’s about.
I’ve now gone through to the sidebar and I’m left rather uninformed due to the purposely opaque cliquey in-joke nature of the text there. I mean, those are definitely words, I’ll give you that.
The link at the top doesn’t help because i don’t have time to parse a whole article when a 10 word summation of the community would do.
so in effect you went to some random forum you had never heard of, read one post in it, didn’t click around or anything, and replied “I DON’T KNOW WHAT’S GOING ON. DO BETTER”
for anyone else who stumbles on our threads from all and is (justifiably) confused: please for the love of fuck lurk before posting a demand that we do labor for you
if you’ve lurked and searched TESCREAL and Eliezer Yudkowsky and other shit from the sidebar and you still need clarification, maybe posting a shitty rant in the style of someone’s dad about how kids these days don’t stop and explain themselves to their elders in a random thread is the wrong move
It’s a lousy bit, because if you’re going to do a goddamn “crocus” joke about hundreds of people being shot at a concert, you should obviously make the pun about Swiss heavy metal legends “Krokus.”
a deeply shitty joke??? observation??? about how a crocus is a flower and therefore how could it be the subject of a terror attack?
completely indistinguishable from all the other posts in their history, all of which were made by reading the title of the thread and posting the first garbage that came to mind
if only literally the fucking sidebar of the sub had a link explaining precisely what this was all about
And I’m right here!

But thanks.

you sure did have time to write a 150 word micro-essay about why you’re a bannable dickhead though

Weirdly I think it might be a (very very inexplicable) bit, because of this one (CW: recent terror in Moscow): https://aussie.zone/comment/8050553

It’s not like if Russian artillery pieces aren’t named after flowers, so maybe there’s another tradition in play here.
The failure mode of clever continues to be asshole.
@dgerard If you’re looking at awful.systems via a Mastodon client you never see the sidebar. Or even any indication that it isn’t a Mastodon server.
i would say in that case “sucks to be them” and “their refund is enclosed”
it’s not a dot less pointless and obnoxious in that context either
“halt your conversation and explain yourself to me, whoever the fuck I am, right this instant” is also an utter shithead move on mastodon
@self Really? And here I thought Mastodon existed for the convenience of Reply Guys like that!
and he’s not even from mastodon.social or c.im!
note that aussie.zone is actually a lemmy instance
