Seriously, who the fuck posts paywalled shit anymore? Especially from places like 404 where neither u-block nor reader mode gets around it.

Just click through to the Taiping Rebellion.

Wouldn’t be a lemon party without old Dick.

Hell yeah. Too many people sleep on the socks from the business class amenities bag too. Put those on, then at the end of your nine hour flight putting your socks back on is like a fresh pair.

I’ve been places where white=trad and red could be sharps or redskins.

This shit is so inconsistent you can never assume. I moved across the country once and after going to a few bars/cafes I thought I found my people, oh boy was I wrong.

You need to look at tattoos, shirts, or overt music to make a judgement on first impression.

I would think at a nazi skin party at least some people would be wearing their favorite wp T-shirts, the lack of this or any visible sus tats would suggest these are probably cool people. But if you stumbled upon it, and you didn’t know the local customs, you couldn’t be sure until you heard a bit of conversation.

The color codes are very inconsistent from region to region, and evolve over time.

Without overt tattoos, T-shirt slogans, or music, I would assume a combination of Sharps, trads, reds, etc., none of which would tolerate racist skins.

Dogs and other cute animals in general.

Yeah, but…just have an omelette then eat a banana.

The devil won because he led him down the path of pride and claimed his soul in the end.

I think it’s fun and it’s led me down a couple of wikiholes about the changes in the alphabet over the years and I like learning things.

I don’t think you even need to go that into it to be right. I stopped drinking coffee and started with tea because I drank so much at work the coffee was fucking with my stomach. I’ve since gotten way into it and have a huge variety of teas I like but any generic black or white tea is just better in every way than even the best coffee, and I used to consider myself a big coffee connoisseur.

I know this thread is for unpopular opinions, but JFC.

Upvoted not because it’s unpopular, but because I agree. I used to be very Linux curious, but joining Lemmy has made me realize I’d rather put up with a kind-of-shitty OS that I never have to think about than dedicate my life to maintaining a good OS.

Lol, I did the exact same thing. I watched like half a dozen shitty Scandi shows before I realized what I was doing and started being more picky.

My problem with pineapple, or any other divisive topping, isn’t the topping itself, it’s getting it in a group environment.

For example: Someone is getting six pizzas for twelve people (don’t get hung up on the numbers, just round ones for illustrative purposes), 1/2 pizza per person. But someone says “I want Hawaiian,” and someone else says “I want anchovies.” Now two people have a whole pizza to themselves, that they won’t finish, leaving ten people to share four pizzas, .4 pizzas per person. And just because you like Hawaiian, doesn’t mean you only like Hawaiian, so when it comes maybe you get a couple slices of Hawaiian and one slice of something else, further reducing the supply of mass appeal pizzas for everyone else. Every time this happens the “normal” pizzas are gone before everyone has their fill and 1/2-3/4 of the specialty pizzas goes to waste.

I’ve got a weird pizza I love too, but I don’t request it in a group setting because I’m not an asshole (at least not in this way). Your taste isn’t wrong, I don’t think there is any such thing, but if you request it in a group setting (or your the one making the order and you get it for yourself) you’re an asshole. And if you get all smug about it being “valid” and “slamming” if anyone dares to complain, you’re a double asshole.

Everything is 95% shit, but it does seem like some people get turned on to a couple animes they like and don’t understand that the same good/shit ratio that applies to everything else also applies to anime. I think at least some of these people make “liking anime” part of their personality before they figure this out and then become defensive, like they’re being personally attacked, when it’s pointed out.

Is this a region specific thing? I bought these years ago in HD, at some point Google automatically updated them to 4K, and they are still in my library. Should I expect these to disappear for me as well or did Google lose the ability to distribute it in certain countries/regions only?

How dare you disrespect Carolyn Jones like that!

Yup, I’m one. Used to be a donor, one too many of these stories and I haven’t been in years. This terrifies me. Two of my biggest fears are this and elder abuse if I start to lose my marbles because I don’t have kids to look out for me.
