No such thing. Ask away!

!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.



Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.

Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.

If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.



Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.

If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Better than being out in the middle of an industrial area.

Malls are cool. Dojos are cool. What's the problem?

[–] Mamertine@lemmy.world 20 points 8 months ago (2 children)

Malls are cool again?

It's that some ironic retro coolness?

[–] FloMo@lemmy.world 9 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I’m out of the loop personally but it wouldn’t surprise me given how many things we’ve seen make unexpected comebacks.

[–] andyburke@fedia.io 9 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I lived through the first time they were cool, and now they're getting cool again as people realize buying everything from Amazon sucks.

[–] SocialMediaRefugee@lemmy.world 3 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Yup. Sitting at home and just accumulating stuff without going out gets boring

[–] AscendantSquid@lemm.ee 1 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Could this possibly lead to Amazon Storefronts? They definitely sell enough stuff to fill a mall

[–] SocialMediaRefugee@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

From b&m to online and back. The cycle of life.

Malls have never been out of style at least in Asia’s megacities. The malls in US are just terrible that’s why they died out.

[–] SocialMediaRefugee@lemmy.world 7 points 8 months ago (1 children)

They overbuilt. Outdoor malls aka "Villages" are the trend now and are doing well around my area.

I adamantly believe that the American mall died because Orange Julius went out of business. Like what's the point of even going to a mall if you can't get an Orange Julius to go with your Hot Dog on a Stick and Auntie Anne pretzel?

Partnered with Dairy Queen in Canada, I still get one every time I go to the mall.
