I get the gentle ones at work all the time. I'd like to have someone violently remind me of something one time just to see what it's like.

"PAY YOUR GODDAMN POWER BILL, CHUCKLEFUCK!"

Needs a sprinkle of "if you prefer unbroken kneecaps" for flavor

I was going to say, the mob has been well aware of the violent reminder option for quite some time.

This was funny the first time I read it. Even more so after I reread the body of the post.
Chucklefuck!

I am so out of my gourd right now. 🌎 🧑🚀RebekahWSD@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 101d
They go from white envelopes to yellow! I don't know if they become red.
I bet they do!

We've tried that, it doesn't work.

I just watched a political thriller that had plenty of violent reminders.
I doubt you want that.

Was it "The News"?

The violent reminder is whatever happens if you forget.

Gentle reminders at my work the past months: sign this company policy change that unilaterally changed your benefits with no upside for you, please. (Or you will be in trouble)

We working at the same place are we?
My company will start to give reminders 5 minutes beyond their arbitrary 'deadline', but will take months and months and months to sign off on a promotion..

I sent a coworker a "friendly reminder ... fore some issue..., now don't forget, lest I will have to give you unfriendly reminders as well".
I had the pleasure of giving him an unfriendly reminder later (for something else), where I threatened to tell his mom.

Along those lines: If somebody sends a "friendly reminder," you know that they had the unfriendly kind in mind. Otherwise, they'd just send a reminder.

Mafia and dealers only work in violent reminders.
Kneecaps. Fingers. Finger nails. Knife to the nostril. Lots of options.

Yeah that's why gentle reminders are actually threats
Assassassin@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 7 pts · 102d
I'm pretty sure violent reminders are served via the kneecaps

A rude awakening!

My pet peeve is getting a ”gentle reminder” about some completely new information.

Tax is a gentle reminder. or should be. The alternative includes blades and baskets. The 1% should remember this.
gmtom@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 102d
Well yeah, you can say things like "the eruption was a harsh reminder of the dangers of living next to a volcano"

Violent reminders do exist. They're called "spanking"
dohpaz42@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 102d

Sam Kinison was the violent reminder. Nobody could do it as well as he did so we don't use it anymore.

Harsh reminder
Aceticon@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 4 pts · 102d
There is such a thing as a "stern reminder".
Tetragrade@leminal.space · 3 pts · 101d
A grim reminder.

Well, yeah, those happen all the time. Just read some headlines.

We call the violent reminder, the revolution.
