Does nobody get that the original isn’t literally fine with burning alive? I’ve seen multiple “fixes” that are just needlessly spelling out the subtext.

Ech@lemmy.worldto pics@lemmy.world•Eminem serving food to customers at his Mom's Spaghetti restaurant, 2021 in Detroit, MichiganEnglish34·1 year agoDude’s just handing a lady some spaghetti, y’all. Does he really need to be “on” for that?
Well he’s gonna have to dig down 2 more feet if he doesn’t wanna be left out with the yellow-spotted lizards.
Ech@lemmy.worldto Games@sh.itjust.works•Frostpunk hits 5 million copies sold in six years, boasting average playtime of 24 hoursEnglish3·1 year agoI mean, for one, that’s the only metric you chose to measure games by, so I’m not sure what else you would expect. Should we reply as if you used an entirely unmentioned metric?
Second, I specifically mentioned “many”, not you in particular. That’s not strawmaning, that’s talking about a general trend.
Why use an edited version? It completely ruins the joke.
Ech@lemmy.worldto The Onion@midwest.social•$1200 Graphics Card Opens Two Extra Google Chrome TabsEnglish21·1 year agoI dunno. If someone’s building a PC, they are most probably using it for more than just chrome-level stuff. And for me at least, if I’m going to spend the time and money on new components, I’m going to get the biggest and best that I can afford/justify. The higher end comments are going to fair much better as tech develops further along, and I consider them an investment into not going through the same process again in just a few years time.
Ech@lemmy.worldto Lemmy Be Wholesome@lemmy.world•Taking in the best moments while you canEnglish104·2 years agoYou’re getting downvoted unfairly here. Yes, it’s the “right” choice to maximize the time with your kids when you can as those moments will go by faster than we think they will, but it’s also not the wrong choice to make sure you take care of yourself. Every parent is going to make their own decisions, and nobody’s “doing it wrong” as long as the child is reasonably happy and healthy (to the extent uncontrollable forces allow). We’re all just getting along here.
What’s wrong with a nose? :^(
Hah, they actually made it look like an edited comic. That’s funny.
Ech@lemmy.worldtoPolitical Memes@lemmy.world•Just need the matching Mr Spray Tan Grabber to complete the set...English32·2 years agoBobert is a dumbass, but this is so dumb. The crassness mixed with the refusal to utter a curse word makes it even worse.
Ech@lemmy.worldtoAMUSING, INTERESTING, OUTRAGEOUS, or PROFOUND@lemmy.world•Hershey is sued — and deserves to lose — over deceptive packaging for Reese's seasonal candiesEnglish418·2 years agoWth are you talking about? No other person or company is held to that “standard”. This is just circle jerking over “sticking it” to a corporation over the tiniest possible thing they could be punished for. It’s absurd.
Ech@lemmy.worldtoAMUSING, INTERESTING, OUTRAGEOUS, or PROFOUND@lemmy.world•Hershey is sued — and deserves to lose — over deceptive packaging for Reese's seasonal candiesEnglish1011·2 years agoYou’re getting downvoted because anything that isn’t full-throated condemnation is being a “corporate apologist”, but is this really what we want to see corporations being held accountable for? That their chocolate shapes aren’t shaped “right”? They’re poisoning our planet and profiting off of slavery. This is the smallest of small things to be punishing them over and it’s being treated like some crowning achievement. They should 100% be litigated into oblivion, but this ain’t it. This is a joke and should be treated as such.
Ech@lemmy.worldto Videos@lemmy.world•(Proper trim vs. what Anne and many of us do) You're (Probably) Killing Your Fruit Trees [35:44 | May 01 2023 | Anne of All Trades]English4·2 years agoFwiw, everything they posted was from the details left under the video by the creator.
Ech@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Oregon weekly newspaper lays off entire staff after discovering a former employee had embezzled $90,000 and left bills unpaidEnglish34·2 years agoIsn’t this why a lot of companies have essentially mandatory vacation for their accountants? Gives a baked in reason to have another set of eyes on the practices of the department.
Ech@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•Woman Wears Body Paint To Gym As "Social Experiment", Internet Slams herEnglish1·2 years agoI mean…recording it is a form of record keeping…
Ech@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•It’s “shakeout” time as losses of Netflix rivals top $5 billion | Disney, Warner, Comcast, and Paramount are contemplating cuts, possible mergers.English91·2 years agoThey would still control it more than they did in Netflix, so it’s still upside in their eyes.
Ech@lemmy.worldto Fediverse@lemmy.ml•Could we use this sorting algorithm on Lemmy?English192·2 years agoNot really interested in anything that even remotely mirrors “engagement” driven algorithms seen on other sites. It’s predictably resulted in siloing of information and the explosion of “rage-bait” content that’s pretty much taken over. Lemmy being different than that is a boon, not a deficit.
Ech@lemmy.worldto Doctor Who@lemmy.world•SPOILERS "Doctor Who - The Church on Ruby Road" DiscussionEnglish5·2 years agoalong with the fact that that story took place on Bowie base, named after the man who played a goblin king who steals babies (!).
Now that is a coincidence. Neat.
Neither.
