Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community

1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.

2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.

3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.

4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.

5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.

6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.

Community Guidelines

By following these rules, we can maintain a diverse and informative community. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to reach out to the moderators. Thank you for contributing responsibly!

People used to look way better back in the day.

Now no one has any self respect and just wears PJs to the store.

it's not a lack of self respect. it's a lack of give a fuck what you think about my clothes. if anything, that's more self respect than trying to live up to ~~someone~~ everyone else's "fashion" expectations, regardless of how I want to express myself. and what have you done to warrant me being obliged to wear what you think i should wear to the store?

"iTs SoCiEtAl NoRmS!"

indeed it was

We all live in this world and we should take consideration for others. People obviously exclusively care about themselves and it seems people want to show of how much they are the centre of the world by actively showing off to everyone how little they care. Contradictory I know.

No one wants to see you in private clothes, no one wants to see "Juicy" written on your arse, no one want to see your gut hanging out, no one wants to see your huge cleavage going to your bellybutton, no one wants to see your arsecrack.

People now almost take it as a sense of pride that they can look as shitty as possibly just to show off. Yea great, you look a state congratulation.

this i agree with.

but then you take the liberty of speaking for the entire world:

No one wants to see you in private clothes, no one wants to see “Juicy” written on your arse, no one want to see your gut hanging out, no one wants to see your huge cleavage going to your bellybutton, no one wants to see your arsecrack.

you are speaking as if your opinions are/should be EVERYONE'S opinion, which you're free to believe, but it's a dumb opinion that i shit on. more information . see also: "nO oNe ShOuLd HaVe TaTtOos!!" "nO oNe ShOuLd BrEaStFeEd In PuBlIC" etc.

i'm not telling you what to think. i'm saying you're in for a miserable life if this is really what you think. and i have zero sympathy. and i can tell you 2 things: 1) i have plenty of self respect, and 2) i can't think of anything i give less of a fuck about than having YOUR respect

You really seem to care about showing people how little you care.

[–] solsangraal@lemmy.zip 3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

you're right, i admit: i would like everyone to care less about clothes and other superficial crap, and argue about it online. usually when i'm drunk, which i am.

sober me knows this is a battle of snowballs vs fireballs, but fuck it. it'll make me smile, thinking of you getting red in the face mad every time you go to 7eleven and see an asscrack emerging from pajama pants

More sorry for people than anything.

[–] Rolando@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

Depends on context. If I'm interviewing for an office job that's one thing, if I'm running to the convenience store at night that's another.

Self respect doesn't make you dress uncomfortably to grab milk, it's respect for others. People now a' days just realize we don't need to be so formal to still treat each other with respect.

Though honestly, I see plenty of people misbehaving/behaving rudely in public, maybe we should go back to collared shirts? If that keeps people from yelling at cashiers?
