First Wordle Problems

I remember it being fairly entertaining. But it was a LONG time ago. I think the year I read it may have been closer to 1789 than to the present day.

Man, this one comes up on here a LOT. People seem traumatized.

Yeah, that's a whole different can of worms, linguistically! Like "there" is grammatically the subject, sort of, but of course it's just a placeholder. I forget the word for that. It's like the "it" in "it is going to rain," etc.

I was gonna say "I assume they blocked us all" and that seems to be the case. Or the result, anyway. Again, the usual story. Beginning, middle, end.

The plan to send in unaccountable agents to kidnap your neighbors *might* have overplayed its hand when they've lost the people on the "I Saw A Person I Didn't Recognize In My Neighborhood And I Want The Cops To Come Take Them Away" social media app.

Yeah kinda feels like the shit they WOULD say. Of course they’re gonna destroy every tunnel and blah blah. But I know nothing either, of course.

circle of life, wheel of fortune, etc

Dr Pulaski robot racist

*nods racistly*

Especially with me lol. But I guess I’m old now; I can only get ruthless for a few minutes and a few replies. I already muted so I wouldn’t have even known they got back to me. I take my shots and get out and never leave ANYBODY the last word. 🙃

One hundred percent. Although my parents kept that number for decades after I'd moved out. I think my mom only let the landline go a couple years ago.

But I remember the numbers of friends from like seventh grade too.

sure sure. I conscientiously object to this culture war lol. I eat Cincinnati chili too.

I don't know who else would be THAT nuts. Writing something like that down. But you never know these days!

...feds? I assume?

It's like, they're offended by the stereotype of the armchair revolutionary bragging about bombing Wal-Marts that never do end up getting bombed. But then talk about RAIDING CAMPS which is like twenty times more insane than bombig a Wal-Mart lol. WAY more armed guys on site!

Also I don't think OP said anything about "socialists"? What's going on there?

what on earth

"raiding concentration camps" wtf are we doing

Like I tried to Do a Satire about it all today and people cheerfully jumped in to tell me that "Yeah, that guy was terrible! We should stop!"

Sigh. I never even looked into any of it; my eyes just glaze over when the posts go by. For me it's just "okay I think we all know this by now, Columbus was mean and racist, we can stop congratulating ourselves this year." But that will never happen.

It's INSANE. It boggles the mind to think that even like four or five years ago I would have been like "yeah overall they're the slightly better of the Big Newspapers."

Oh man, is THAT where a lot of that stuff comes from? Honestly didn't know. But yeah makes sense.

We've NEVER had a government remotely this reckless before but they're still not going to be able to fuck with the currency and whatnot they way they'd probably dream of. Too many stakeholders in the way, too much inertia.

Right, yeah. And while "autarky" might be the beautiful dream at the back of the "MAGA intellectual" mind, it's of course an absurd fantasy when talking about the USA of today, a crucial part of a global economy with the most important currency in the world.

ha yeah the line is just stuck in my head forever, and in that woman's little speech impediment. (Which is what I mean about the PROBLEMS with that movie, heh. Her characterization, etc.)

Ha! That does sum up the difference quite well! For "pro-market content" and also for anything involving That One Country You Know the One. VERY different people will be annoying and/or threatening you depending on which site you're on.

it's got electrolytes. it's what plants crave!

Ha yeah. I always scroll past posts where a mutual is clearly in an altercation so I click to see if I should wade in and it's like three different "account muted" people they're arguing with. One of them probably is Stancil.

Yeah, just to get all the references if nothing else. As long as you're an adult and can see the ISSUES with the politics there's some decent satire.

Like you probably saw I just did a bunch of jokes around some kind of tankie revolutionary bot that kept reposting me. Best friend I ever had.

Yeah totally. They exist, but they're not even good enough to be annoying. Takes a real human being to piss us off.

Oh, "Idiocracy"? The internet loves that movie. It has some good jokes but is kinda WILDLY offensive, heh.
