Does the NSFW marker take something away from this for you?
I’m unfamiliar, this is the first thing of hers I’ve encountered and I thought it fun enough to post here. Is there one of those Reasons people don’t like her?
Rob T Firefly@lemmy.worldOPto Comic Strips@lemmy.world•Why do you block people?English2025·2 days agoThe word “bullshit.” I usually like to err on the side of caution with this stuff.
Dr. Seuss, is that you?
Rob T Firefly@lemmy.worldOPto Risa@startrek.website•One fine day at the bookstoreEnglish1·11 days agoI once had friends who worked at a bookstore where they pronounced it “is bin,” but I suspect this gag might work with either pronunciation.
Maybe it’s also like brushing their teeth?
Rob T Firefly@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What cover song just takes you to Universe B compared to the original?English2·24 days agoThat whole “Abba-esque” EP of Abba covers by Erasure is a real treasure. Any of the tracks on there qualify for this thread.
Rob T Firefly@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What popular TV show did not do it for you and you quit watching?English82·30 days agoJustin Roiland wasn’t just the voice actor for Rick, Morty, and various other roles, he was the co-creator, writer, and executive producer of the show alongside Dan Harmon. The whole thing is very much Roiland’s baby, and even after it came out that he’s an abuser and predator and the show fired him it continues to be his celebrated legacy.
Fuck that guy and his stupid show.
Rob T Firefly@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What popular TV show did not do it for you and you quit watching?English5·30 days agoI initially found that show a bit interesting, but I found myself feeling more and more cringey about what the show was churning out. I outgrew the whole thing just as the sauce thing was happening
It later became well known what an actual piece of shit Justin Roiland is, and I felt pretty glad not to have been stuck in that fandom still feeling like his work was of any importance to me.
Rob T Firefly@lemmy.worldto Achievers•Jeff “The Dude” Bridges Teases ‘The Big Lebowski’ Sequel; Says Co-Star Julianne Moore Fantasizes About ItEnglish18·30 days agoFrom the article:
He added, though, he thought the prospect of the Coens wanting to return to the subject matter was unlikely:
“I don’t think the brothers are going to do that. I don’t think that’s their style. But I must say, they surprise us all the time… If they called me up and said, ‘Hey let’s do it again,’ I’d say, ‘Absolutely, come on.’”
I also feel like the Coens are probably not up for unnecessary sequels. But unfortunately there are some people who engage in filmmaking compulsively and without joy.
Rob T Firefly@lemmy.worldto Achievers•Jeff “The Dude” Bridges Teases ‘The Big Lebowski’ Sequel; Says Co-Star Julianne Moore Fantasizes About ItEnglish5·30 days agoThe movie takes place in 1990 or 1991, but was released in 1998. If they made another one now they could place it seven or eight years ago again, and have the Little Lebowski still in their 20s.
Rob T Firefly@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What ya nerds set your thermostats to?English1·1 month agoStun.
Rob T Firefly@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•should i cut this person slack due to their disability?English322·1 month agoBeing “mentally much younger” is not an excuse to be an asshole. I’ve personally known five and six year olds who understand quite well that some people love and marry people the same gender as themselves, and also accept being corrected on whether someone is “he,” “she,” or even “they.”
Bigotry isn’t natural, it’s learned behavior you can accept and reinforce through your responses to her, attempt to correct, or simply judge her by and decide whether or not to continue involving her in your life.
(If Ella isn’t capable of matching the mental age of a toddler, the help she needs is probably beyond your ability or responsibility to provide.)
The Super Mario warp pipe noise.
Rob T Firefly@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is something you learned in your line of work that other people wouldn't knowEnglish2·1 month ago- “Haha, deadbolt… I just smash the door in.”
- “I can pick most locks with a credit card.”
- “I know when you’re home… and when you’re not.”
Rob T Firefly@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is something you learned in your line of work that other people wouldn't knowEnglish2·1 month agoI’m curious what anyone who truly believes in those horoscopes thinks is going on. Do they assume the Skippy and Dippy Morning Show crew have a licensed fortune teller casting star charts and meditating in a back room somewhere while the rest of the guys are giving away concert tickets and making prank phone calls to celebrities?
Rob T Firefly@lemmy.worldto linuxmemes@lemmy.world•I think the motherboard is enough?English4·1 month agoThey tried running Linux on their ENIAC, but someone accidentally tipped over one of the crates of punch cards which has unfortunately set the project back a few months.
It doesn’t feel like restraint to me, just an extra note for the benefit of anyone who happens to be at a workplace like mine where a big expletive on the screen might not be the best thing when the boss walks by. I do appreciate your perspective, though.
