PapaStevesy,

Same exact thing as “How can mirrors be real if our eyes aren’t real?”

PapaStevesy,

Yes it is, because “boomers,” by definition of the word’s intended memetic use, are old yes, but more specifically they are old rich people in power. Using “boomer” as an insult doesn’t hurt them. Meanwhile the actual boomers are literally trying to stigmatize and criminalize queerness. It’s the same logic that makes it ok (encouraged even) to be racist against white people, it just doesn’t affect us.

PapaStevesy,

"Have you ever had a honk where you, if you, you would, you could, you would honk you so much you could honk anything?

PapaStevesy,

It doesn’t count as self-awareness if he disassociates from the statement entirely, it’s actually the opposite.

PapaStevesy,

What “slam” though? Why not just press the clutch down? I’ve driven manuals before and definitely didn’t have to do any slamming of the pedals, it worked great.

PapaStevesy,

The sign of a good game is when it takes 10 hours to get into… (/s)

PapaStevesy,

Wow, y’all really don’t know what /s means, huh?

PapaStevesy,

Yah, it was a joke based on the ambiguous title. Lemmy is just reeeeeally bad at recognizing sarcasm, even when it’s literally labeled as such, lol.

PapaStevesy,

They didn’t get years in prison, look up “suspended sentence”.

PapaStevesy,

I wouldn’t call 5 teenagers “hordes,” but you do you.

PapaStevesy,

5 cases is not very many, considering how long guns have been legal in this country and illegal in others. Doesn’t seem like a problem at all to me, just check your shit if you commonly carry murder implements around. 🤷‍♂️ Idk what else to tell you, these people didn’t even get punished.

PapaStevesy,

And I bet they never forget to check their bags for tools of death before international travel ever again. I really don’t know how you could, if that’s something you commonly carry around. It would be on mind constantly.

PapaStevesy,

If it leans more comedy than sci-fi, wouldn’t it be more Red Dwarf than Trek?

PapaStevesy,

Aaah, got it.

PapaStevesy,

I don’t know much about computers except for the one at my house my mom put some games on there I play em sometimes—

PapaStevesy,

Idk about that, I miss my niche podcast subreddits, it’s just one big quote-fest.

PapaStevesy,

Yeah, definitely not what I would call a niche podcast. I mean, I guess it is niche, but I also guess that when I said “niche” before, I really meant “small listenership”. Then people are pretty much just always cool!

PapaStevesy,

Yeah, we need the classic Drake meme with "She’s a 10” on top and "She is 10” on bottom.

PapaStevesy,

“What do you fear?” is not very specific, is there another question the title is supposed to be referring to?

PapaStevesy,

Good luck finding one that actually got paid.

PapaStevesy,

Come in, it’s pretty simple… machine. Fuck.

PapaStevesy,

Always has been, is this news to people?

PapaStevesy,

I’d give anything to see a McSpock episode. Kirk would probably just phaser him/them on the spot.

PapaStevesy,

From the “memes” I’ve seen there, it’s just a bunch of bootlicking gun nuts and military fanbois. They’re the actual, literal tankies.

PapaStevesy,

From my experience, “tanky” just means socialist/communist, which is an obviously idiotic, reductivist generalization. Based on actual reality, I don’t know a group of people it makes more sense to call tankies than the NCD crowd.

PapaStevesy,

Like I said, I know what you all use it to mean and the historical context of the term, but language evolves, I just applied it more logically and obviously. Mine doesn’t need historical context, a tankie is someone who likes tanks, jet fighters, battleships, trebuchets, etc. You know, large-scale murder fanbois. Like, yeah the hexbear memes are cringey and largely illogical, but half of them are about lgbt+ stuff or just nothing at all. The NCD memes are literally all about war. The whole basis of socialism is striving towards a society where everyone has what they need, not striving towards a society where everyone has a home-defense AK.

PapaStevesy,

Every time I open an NCD meme, it has a gun or a tank or a military drone or some other implement of murder and destruction. I’ve never seen one of these supposed genocide-defending “communists” in 20+ plus years on the Internet, so I repurposed the term to make more sense.

PapaStevesy,

I actually can, that’s the beauty of language! It doesn’t mean it has to change for you or anyone else, but every word is a symbol, and every symbol is subjective to the person using it. Obviously I know the historical context of the word, but that doesn’t stop present day experiences from affecting those symbols in my mind. Unfortunately you can’t control how I define or use a word, as much as you’d like to. If you love guns and war and organized mass murder, you’re a tankie in my book.

PapaStevesy,

I mean, I guess I thought if it was satire, it would be funny. It seems like you need very specific, detailed knowledge of military minutiae for any of the jokes to land, which would ostensibly come from having a passion for said minutiae.

PapaStevesy,

And it not being “objectively true” doesn’t mean I care! Look friend, I’m obviously not going to go around trying to use “my version” of words I’ve ironically redefined for a “snarky” Internet comment, no one else would even understand it. But if all you post about is missile guidance systems and gun manufacturers, I’ll call you a tankie in my head and laugh. At least something about it will be funny then (seriously, I just haven’t seen one funny/comprehendable meme in that community, so I just assume they’re all nut jobs).

PapaStevesy,

My point was to answer your question, which I did. What’s your point here?

PapaStevesy,

I don’t have a microwave, but I do have a clock that occasionally cooks stuff.

PapaStevesy,

I guess if you live on a farm or walk to the grocery store, you don’t have an internal monologue?

PapaStevesy,

“Stop caring and you won’t care anymore”

Yeah, not helpful in any way.

PapaStevesy,

But it is a double checkmate, which is pretty rare.

PapaStevesy,

That’s too many, with some clunky emphasis for the meter.

PapaStevesy,

That looks like a baked cheese, not grilled.

PapaStevesy,

It doesn’t look like it was in contact with any cooking surface at all on the side we can see and we can’t see the other side at all, so I don’t know how you made the jump to panini, lol. It looks dry and sad.

PapaStevesy,

Yeah, it definitely looks like it was smashed into too small of a space, but it doesn’t actually look grilled/fried, it looks toasted. No matter what, it’s quite unappetizing, as is that red water next to it, lol.

PapaStevesy,

Nice to meet you Jejdj, I’m nobody

PapaStevesy,

Pretty sure that would only be blackmail if it was Putin’s plan. Is he trying to take credit away from ISIS or was it a Freudian slip?

PapaStevesy,

Yeah, the fiancé misspellings give it away, too intentional.
