SzethFriendOfNimi,

Gonna need some context on the sells information or else you risk being on the Santa Naughty List

HowManyNimons,

No smoke without fire.

SzethFriendOfNimi,

Agree. Where’s the smoke?

beepaboopa,

Oh, sorry. They meant, “No smoke; without fire” it’s like the firewatcher’s “All clear”. There’s no smoke and they’re without fire.

Well actually, You can heat things up to a temperature where they do sublimate, without there being an ignition source.

“No smoke without fire” is a misnomer.

Viking_Hippie,

Someone never heard about the American/worldwide right wing echo chamber…

DragonTypeWyvern,

Ok, but we all do agree he knows what we do.

Viking_Hippie,

Yup, he’s definitely omniscient. That’s why his books are so good!

Godric,

A meme said it! Can’t be wrong, unless proof otherwise!

Daxtron2,

There’s no evidence Santa isnt selling our data

ChaoticNeutralCzech,

Everyone knows Santa is in bed with corporations. Just look at how many cameos he makes in ads and shopping malls! I would be very surprised if he didn’t sell all his data.

I heard he’s a Coca-Cola Plant

coriza,

There is a Brazilian Rock Band with a great song named “Santa Claus son of a bitch” (or maybe motherfucker) here is the Google translate (with light editing) of the first couple verses:


<span style="color:#323232;">Santa Claus motherfucker
</span><span style="color:#323232;">Reject the wretched
</span><span style="color:#323232;">I want to kill him!
</span><span style="color:#323232;">That capitalist pig
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">Give gifts to the rich
</span><span style="color:#323232;">And spits on the poor
</span><span style="color:#323232;">Give gifts to the rich
</span><span style="color:#323232;">And spits on the poor
</span>
Donjuanme,

I must be confused… Good omens Neil gaiman?

rmuk,

Yeah, but… Why did you capitalize ‘Good’ and ‘Neil’, but not ‘omens’ and ‘gaiman’?

deltapi,

Looks like mobile auto formatting to me. G after a period, N is from a name, g ends with a ? but no space afterwards, so it doesn’t auto capitalize.

rmuk,

Alright, Columbo, calm down.

Alright, Columbo, calm down.

Ok, legit sremoved from that, but I do approve of the way they showed their working.

Edit: do I have to write “snicker” like an American? Does some bot suffer from the Scunthorpe problem here?

Borger,

I’ve come back to this after sleeping to check; has anyone figured out what the hell this means?

sem,

I’ve also come back but 6 h later. Can confirm. No one knows what it means

I love how everyone is debating “Sells that information to companies”, but no one’s talking about “knows everything you do”.

atocci,

Neil Gaiman?

yemmly,

@robocall@lemmy.world avatar

Who is Niel?

SzethFriendOfNimi,

Author of American Gods, Coraline, countless other gems and the co-writer of Good Omens with Pratchett.

robocall,
@robocall@lemmy.world avatar

Never heard of any of that. But thanks.

SzethFriendOfNimi,

xkcd.com/1053/

Not sure what library/resources you use but definitely worth checking out

robocall,
@robocall@lemmy.world avatar

That’s a wholesome comic. Thanks.

Ironically, it’s a pretty well-known one itself (you see people just refer to it by mentioning “today’s 10000”).

davidagain,

META.

invertedspear,

Go pick up smoke and mirrors, it’s a short story collection, very easy to get into. If you love it, check out the American Gods novel and the Sandman comics. The original sandman is a bit dated at this point, but still some amazing storytelling.

Voroxpete,

Ironically, my favorite story from that collection is a hundred word horror story about Santa.

Huh… Maybe OP is just really offended on St Nick’s behalf?

Zoomboingding,
@Zoomboingding@lemmy.world avatar

Also Sandman, which recently got a good Netflix adaptation

Fantasy author Neil Gaiman?

Midnitte,

That certainly looks like his photo… when did he turn into Google Adsense?

nilloc,

I bet his website has google analytics or some shit, and a weenie is all upset about it.

Ageroth,

The account has two comments from 10 months ago about how there is no real justification for using the atomic bombs on Japan, and this post. Really not sure what the dela is

Which is also my reaction to the post being upvoted.

YtA4QCam2A9j7EfTgHrH,

Honesty the funniest thing I’ve read on the lemmiverse. Holy shit. I don’t understand why it is so funny.

Taleya,

Dada

Viking_Hippie,

Mama

sem,

This post and the comments need to be studied by researchers to understand what is happening

belated_frog_pants,

Huh?
