Is this supposed to make no sense? Because this makes no sense.

[–] Regalia@lemmy.blahaj.zone 55 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Actual context is that iirc the bot posts wikihow titles with a random wikihow image, sometimes leading to hijinks

[–] KoboldCoterie@pawb.social 25 points 6 months ago (2 children)

And here I thought there was some cultural context I was missing, like French people only getting haircuts once a year.

[–] shneancy@lemmy.world 6 points 6 months ago

i thought that perhaps birthday wishes in French sound similar-ish to "kkkkkssch" of scissors cutting your hair

[–] trolololol@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago

No that's shower

Welcome to 196 😂 first time?

Can we not turn this into vxjunkies please?

I enjoy jokes that you have to think about for a minute, but I’m also broken, so I will spend an ungodly amount of time trying to figure it out

I really miss my vx junkies... I've been really discouraged about retuning my quantum slice deinhibitor ever since I left reddit.

Please please please make sure you verify the local resonance before you do that. The ambient cascade fields are just wild right now and it’s very easy to cause a discharge

[–] Flummoxed@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago

Thanks for the reminder! I've been watching those cascade fields to try to find the right time... Quite something if you have a translocating microvising semifold to view them with.

Don't take the bait y'all 😭

[–] TripDawkins@lemmy.studio 3 points 6 months ago

Yeah well, I guess y'all did good at keeping this an inside joke. After googling for 196, all I get is "We're a shitposting subreddit with moderators that are actively hostile to bigots, bootlickers, and chuds." Clears things up a lot.

its worse because I was like

"Bon anniversaire?" like "hair?" and was trying to work backwards from there

[–] NickwithaC@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago

Same. This one broke me.

Now you can open a hair salon in France.

Jeanne de Florette and Manon des Sources are both astonishingly great films. But I'm not sure I get the connection here. It's been a while since I saw them, is there something I'm failing to remember?

[–] regul@lemm.ee 2 points 6 months ago

I vaguely recall someone making a ribbon of Manon's hair and pinning it to their skin.

[–] GluWu@lemm.ee 11 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I mean, I don't care about my hair, which is why it's so long, greasy dry, and in a bun. But I would hurt someone that did this to me randomly.

So you want an appointment? Are you asking me on a date?
