I’m about to turn 40, it’s all true

But sonic has SO MUCH foot to be attracted to.

Ah well, at least you still have sonic inflation.

Those are known evils I know how to deal with, that are popular enough that there are foss tools to handle them.

But I’m being a bit hyperbolic here. I’m not as paranoid as I’m portraying myself… I just don’t have any motivation to click this particular risky link.

They don’t think it be like it is, but it do.

I’ve usually seen it in response to a criticism of the people for enjoying the thing

Why risk it?

As a fellow comp sci graduate (different uni, long time ago) that doesn’t fill me with a ton of confidence lol.

This could actually be a study on phishing lol
Or a less ethical study on virus propagation
Or maybe he has just gone rogue and his university hasn’t noticed because they probably don’t actually monitor what students are hosting very closely, as long as it’s not causing problematic network traffic.\

I doubt it, but I’m still not gonna click a link that someone is asking me to click lol

I self host for the same reason I’m not clicking some random link: distrust lol

I think some of these need clarification 😅

I think they mean someone else gets credit for it, you don’t choose who

More than you contributed, taking rhetorical flourish as literal in bad faith 🤷

You’re right, you don’t understand, and you’re embarrassing yourself

You’re reply is disingenuous in the extreme, because nobody is this subtext illeteriate.

His complaint is that someone else is making lots of money.

He said he is making lots of money for someone else. He is making the money, therefore it is his money, not the money if the other person. It’s like the “taxation is theft” people are unable to apply the same logic on the owners of the boots they lick.

I didn’t say he should be grateful

You absolutely said he should be grateful for his job, you just didn’t use those words. You mocked him for complaining about his job. Those two things are a distinction without meaning difference.
This messaging is all over the media. If you’re trying to say it isn’t then you’re either lying or you’re tragically media illeteriate.

You think that’s the problem here

You’re the one complaining about his mental health.
But no you’re right, it’s people like me online in 2025 who affected the mental health of the author of the [checks notes] 1975 book, causing him to use [gasp in horror] a literary flourish. Great job there, detective, you cracked the case!
Thank god you didn’t embarrass yourself at all!

They showed us a video like

Acid makes you see sounds and taste colors, and isn’t addictive… But don’t do it!

Before the video I absolutely had no desire to try acid, and after the video all I could think was like “what does a color taste like?!?!”

3/10 rage bait

Good selection for the target audience, but too incoherent to actually be effective

Y’all are missing the forrest for the trees

God forbid someone add a bit of literary sugar to their argument, else they be picked apart by pedants.

Your company is successful, is that a problem? You’re getting paid too, right?

Not getting paid commensurate to your contribution to the success of the company

Who’s asking/telling you how to feel about it?

The news, society at large, people like you online posting replies like this very one

Dude needs therapy

Too bad it’s unaffordable. Maybe you need to look at the state of society

But you’re mistaken. It isn’t big plumbing companies selling more shitting - it’s taco bell

I knew about diamonds and I believe about milk.

But you can pry indoor plumbing and hot water heaters from my cold dead hands. Sometimes the marketing works because it’s a good idea lol

Bathrooms are a scam invented by Big Shit to sell more pooping
