Thank goodness someone posted this video. I was about to be very disappointed.

You're a mean one...

I've dealt with depression for most of my life, but with a lot of work and medicine and care, it's possible to get past self loathing and pity. And then, you can stretch "staring into the abyss" into an all day activity as you reflect on how good personal mental health doesn't make the world less of a nightmare!

Bro is doing it wrong. Obviously world hunger is solved DURING Jazzercise, not after.

Jazzercize? What is this, 1990? It's Zumba all the way now.

Must be nice to be happy that long or that early.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

that 1pm commitment is going to get extended, maybe a break 'for lunch' at 5-530pm, but pick right up again at 630p, and be an 'all nighter'.

8PM: listen to some Bonjour Tristesse until I fall asleep crying.

This sub is really confused about what a meme is

You do an aweful lot of arguing about what is and isn't content for someone who posts no content.

[–] TrickDacy 2 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

What a dumb argument. Fitting though

The evidence we have actually is that not posting means you're more likely to know what a meme is

[–] Exusia 0 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Fitting for you to come here from the reddit migration, and do the reddit thing of complaining about falling quality but not try to turn it around? I took my data-hoard of memes and shitposts and am making my name posting them to make this a better place than reddit. I'm sorry you disagree but hey maybe you can use all that Linux knowledge and help the people learning Linux by posting about it?

[–] TrickDacy 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Did you study my history or what?

Kinda weird you're convinced I am claiming reddit has better quality shit or something. Yeah maybe I should post, but honestly most times I've tried I get my post deleted due to some ridiculous rule. Then I see posts like this one all the time, not fitting the sub or just not being interesting... Doesn't inspire me

[–] Exusia 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

2 critical replies in, opened your profile saw 500 comments and no posts, June join date. Most of the recents deal in Linux. Dropped it there. I didn't say reddit is better, I'm saying the stereotype of redditors is to complain but not do anything about it.

If the differences between a shitpost and a meme were better defined maybe I'd find myself adhering to those definitions better. But in my long experience downloading memes/shitposts/funny pictures (over 5000 now) most places use these terms interchangeably. Losing a post to moderation here and there ain't so bad, it's more of a learning experience to not post anything too similar to that.

You just described human nature then ascribed it to Redditors in particular...

Ok so what's so bad about an (accurate) criticism on occasion that "this is not a meme"? Sounds also like a thing you could learn from.

Instead of asking me to post more stuff. if I took your advice and suddenly matched your every post, then we, I guess, would end up with one post that is a meme and one that isn't. That's a marginal improvement I guess, but it ignores the fact that people who post could just care that words have meaning
