The victim was a billionaire, and apparently there were no serious injuries. This is a comedy.

I… no. I get it, but no.

I didn’t realize until right now that part of my personal definition of “career” includes a steady (or at least somewhat predictable) income.

Yup. If there’s one thing I associate with getting high, it’s not the couch, snacks, or cartoons. It’s the violent bursts of homicidal insanity.

So… uh… what am I looking at here? What’s this pic supposed to show? I just see two guys in a boxing ring.

The “HUP” is great

For a second I was upset that he was actually dead. I got got lol

When I agree with a comment, but the rebuttal is civil, well thought out, and reasonable, I’ll upvote both. I’m more likely to downvote attitudes I don’t like rather than statements.

You seem to think like I do. An OS is merely a tool. It should never get in your way, or be obtrusive.

I don’t even use Windows, and just reading about what’s happened to the Start menu pisses me off.

This implies Windows isn’t already enshittified, which is very much not the case.

Diet? Get that shit away from me.

My first reaction to Concord’s record-breaking failure was sympathy for all the staff who had worked on and polished the game for years. All that dedication, passion, and effort, wasted.

Then, I found out the game had been live service, and my reaction could be simplified to one word: GOOD.

I knew he was an asshole, sure, but I didn’t realize he’d gone completely off the rails.

Well, it hasn’t been entirely bad. Constantly reminding myself to add qualifying statements is something I don’t miss, but rewriting my comments for improved clarity is good. It’s easy to forget that English isn’t the first language of many Lemmy users, so I’m in favor of being more specific about the subject, instead of using words like “they” or “it” too much.

Also, there’s a good chance that people are reading my comments while they’re on the toilet or watching TV. Maybe they’re not paying 100% attention lol. A little extra specificity doesn’t hurt!

If that’s all it takes to drive them away, then we’re probably better off without them. We don’t need people who post with the sole purpose of “earning” karma.

Defensiveness. Overexplaining myself because I didn’t expect people to give me the benefit of the doubt, and I knew that if I left any room for interpretation, people would assume the worst version possible. (I didn’t know what “sealioning” was.)

It’s important to remember that this had happened slowly, over a period of years. If it had been as bad as it is now back when I first signed up, I wouldn’t have put up with it. Initially, reddit just seemed like a bunch of normal (but sometimes weird) people. It wasn’t until I discovered Lemmy that I realized I wasn’t being myself, and that every time I posted, in the back of my mind, I was expecting the worst.

Good riddance.
