Shouldn't you be in a town hall organizing instead of shit posting?

You were literally parotting conservative "bootstrap" propaganda on a serious post about the displacement of exploited communities around the world fuck off repub shill lmao

My condolences to your English teachers.

Also, you should probably look at someone's profile before you call them conservative. For instance, you could look at some of my posts or even what instance I'm on and make some much more educated deductions.

I didn't realize my single line of dialogue to you, me stating that you should take some personal responsibility for the situation you find yourself in was conservative propaganda.

I think the phrasing you used was "go wallow in self-pity like a pig," to my rational argument that "um hey guys gentrification is bad," and yes, it is conservative propaganda. But please try to put on the holier-than-thou "I'm unemotionally attached to this argument" tone that everyone hides behind after they make a fool of themselves in an online debate.

I'm very sorry to be the bearer of bad news about you actually being a conservative capitalist puppet, but I don't believe your brain rot is past the P.O.N.R. Maybe spend a few weeks reflecting and reading, and you might be ready to have those grown-up conservations

It became popular online in the mid 2000s, although some accounts say it started in the 90s.

I'd roll with calling it a cacographic puzzle, maybe?

henfredemars@infosec.pub · 2 pts · 2y

Thank you! That's a very good place to start. I'm not an expert in linguistics, but a close friend of mine loves to experiment with language in our letters. We will perform interesting transformations to grammar and spelling just to see how it feels to communicate with those rules.

Jokes on you. I don't know how to properly pronounce english so it sound like nosense for me.

HerbalGamer@sh.itjust.works · 9 pts · 2y

I know how to properly pronounce english and that's exactly why it didn't work for me.

Can someone explain the joke? I don’t get it

SlurpDaddySlushy@lemmy.world · 30 pts · 2y (6 replies)

Back in the day there was this thing called the game. Everyone is playing regardless of if they want to or not. The point of the game is to not think about the game. If you're not thinking about the game, you're winning. The second you think about the game, you've lost the game. Once that happens you are required to announce to everyone around you that you lost the game, making them also lose the game.

I get it now thanks to you but I still think it's stupid.

go_go_gadget@lemmy.world · 11 pts · 2y

Sometimes I think as many as six stupid things before breakfast.

Zomg@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 2y (1 reply)

That's kind of the point though

SlurpDaddySlushy@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

It's pretty fun though. My friends and I still play and when we're in a group it makes an uproar. There's always someone who says, "WTF I had like a several year streak you dick!"

Thanks for making me lose the game by accident.

alquicksilver@lemmy.world · 9 pts · 2y

As someone who has only ever "played" "the game" to make other people lose, I'm pretty sure I actually win.

What is the game?

UndercoverUlrikHD@programming.dev · 6 pts · 2y (6 replies)

A game where the goal is to not think about the game. Which means reading "you/I lost the game" makes you think about the game, therefore losing.
