Too bad you can't say "fuck" on the Internet

[–] yA3xAKQMbq@lemm.ee 46 points 1 year ago (2 children)

This right here, that’s the point. You’re welcome.

I think people are afraid they'll get censored on Facebook or something like that.

[–] expatriado@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

it was a joke about the point, but yea, different censorship levels for different websites

Though it's easy to miss There is a point to all this

Oh no, now you've done it! I've reported you to the Internet police!

[–] subnuggurat@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Internet police here. Stay calm, hands where I can see them. Now, this is how this is gonna go: there isn't much I can do now as I wasn't personally here 7 hours ago when you called but I'll make sure to jot down some loose notes on this here notepad while I take your declaration. Then I'm gonna go ahead and misremember it all when I write a report no one will bother to read... Maybe put up some cameras around for next time, I don't know. Just remember, we're here to help.

Imagine: it's 100+ degrees out, all those dudes in suits are sweating their balls off.

And you're nice and comfortable in your air conditioned barrel.

😌

I saw someone at the airport yesterday walking around in an inflatable unicorn suit. Was thinking to myself, not that's a way to keep cool and keep people out of your personal space at the same time.

Apparently this was a punishment for drunkards in parts of Europe and supposedly some parts of the US.

How is it a punishment if it looks so dope?

[–] Selmafudd@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago

It would be pretty fucked if the bottom was just two leg holes. You couldn't sit down comfortably.. you'd have to lay down and pray you don't roll away while you're suspended inside by you neck and angles.. but I guess looking good is never easy

I hope that started as a reference to Diogenes living in a barrel.

[–] Wage_slave@lemmy.ml 13 points 1 year ago

I was fucking so wrong when i said that the 1990's were about as good as it gets for fashion.

It was actually the 1490's

The only issue I see is I can't use my phone wearing a barrel.

[–] CommissarVulpin@lemmy.world 17 points 1 year ago

Just pull yourself in like a turtle. Bam, perfect privacy too.

[–] Pinklink@lemm.ee 9 points 1 year ago

My Tinder profile says “barrel cheated” but they always seem surprised somehow

[–] NegativeLookBehind@kbin.social 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Omg I love your new barrel, where did you get it?
