Is this the person some folks around here were referring to as the “Fediverse chick?”

Because 💲

I haven’t seen it here in the comments, so I’ll be a total curmudgeon and say it: fuck Pez. I hope it dies out. Shitty tasting candy dispensed from a shitty dispenser. Even as a kid I was disappointed. Plus, it’s just more needless plastic garbage that ends up in landfills for almost no reason at all

I’ve never seen a business where managers are above execs in the pecking order. Is this specific to some industry?

The article says that the picture was projected

What in the world are you talking about? This just simply isn’t true

I had the same thought. Predicably, someone did ☝️

Me too. It was one of my favorite subs before I cut out reddit

Years ago, when projectors were common in conference rooms. Someone was giving a practice presentation before the real deal in front of 80+ audience members. It was just our team of 8 or so the room for the dry run. In the middle of the presentation, there was a terrifyingly loud POP sound as the bulb blew out in the projector. It scared the shit out of everyone in the room. We all laughed after the initial shock wore off.

One of my coworkers stepped up on a table to take a look at it. I was near him and I waited for silence in the room while he was fucking with the thing, and clapped my hands together very loudly, simulating the previous scare. He let out a shriek of terror and clutched his chest. Everyone laughed. Eventually he laughed as well, but said something like “damn, that scared me.” Within a week he had a legit heart attack.

He was ultimately okay, but I still think about it. I know I didn’t cause it, but for a long time I couldn’t shake the guilty feeling that I contributed to it. Oops. Sorry Ken.

I’m curious, how does it work?

Counterpoint: Considering the scale of Lemmy compared to reddit, it’s hard to strike a chord. Suspend your doubt and keep making music jokes on a regular cadence. Someday you’ll hit the right tempo and and reach harmony with other users who recognize it as your signature style.

Yes, and milk was the singular reason they were able to. Turns out those Got Milk commercials had it right all along

Surprisingly, porcupines and hedgehogs are not closely related

Just like with everything else that people make into a lifestyle or part of their identity. Most are cool, but there’s always a vocal minority of dillweeds that take it way too seriously or use it to judge others that aren’t part of their pack.

90s laugh track

The future is HERE. If it laughs when you take your cock out then it’s a 1:1 simulation

I get the apathy, but it’s not the way forward. It just makes matters worse
