Memes that are too meirl for /c/meirl.
Rules:
-
Respect the community. If you're not into self-deprecating/dark/suicidal humor then this place isn't for you. Kindly just block and move on. This is just how some of us cope.
-
Respect one another.
-
All titles must begin with 2meirl4meirl. This is for multiple reasons. One is just so you can be lazy with titles but another is so people who aren't into this kind of humor can avoid it.
-
Otherwise just the general no bigotry, no dickishness, no spam, no malice, etc stuff.
Sidebar will be updated when I feel like and considering I'm Sadboi extraordinaire we'll see when that will be.

I think we should get better at budgeting our work time.
It may sound daunting at first but when you want to work eight hours, first think : "can I afford this eight hours of work? Shouldn't I rather be playing Monster Hunter?" and take good habits from there.
Maybe in the beginning try working 5 or 6 hours. Don't rush it, but keep your determination.
You'll slowly begin to perceive more opportunities as you grow in focus : "Instead of working another hour for my boss, I'll write my own TTRPG setting or hit that solo queue".
It's hard at first but others made it. Why wouldn't you?
The privilege you have that allows to think we already have control over punching the clock.
That's great go do that, what are the hourly workers going to when a reduction to 6 hours is a 25% pay cut on a wage that is about half a century behind inflation... That was before covid and the astronimical rise in cost of living recently
There's people, a fucking ton of people, because of incredibly shitty wages, that cant buy a dozen eggs without needing to work 2 hours that same reduction you just spoke of is how much they have to work just to afford that
P. S. : The sarcasm was a distant reference to this and other kinds of resembling discourse floating around today.
Mark it next time, the sarcasm was not at all obvious
Fair, but I thought it was a given on Lemmy.
Look egg Is on my face.
I misunderstood. But you can't just assume sarcasm through text. It's often easy enough to miss irl
And many people are somewhere in the spectrum so it's just a really bad idea to assume your audience is in on the joke. I might be one of them if this was really that obviously sarcastic to the average person
You didn't say anything that was outlandish or completely ridiculous.
Makes sense, indeed.
Write your own TTRPG did not give it away?
Why would it? I've written ttrpg settings for my groups as part of running a game
With all the ridiculousness actively going on right now and some of the most outlandish things people genuinely believe, satire and sarcasm are nearly impossible to distinguish. Real life is too weird now for anything to be unbelievable.
