I don’t get it. There is sooo much bullshit that all these fuckers do that is morally abhorrent, disgusting, and all around gross… How is everyone supposed to keep up with all of it?

I too normally think of treating doggos the best, I think that’s a good human reaction to have. And that phrase was a nasty one that humans have used for quite awhile, and often does mean the opposite. Outside of use on dog abusers, I would not engage further with someone who used that phrase, and didn’t mean it in a dog positive way (at our house, being treated like the animals, is best treatment!).

Bet some folks who aren’t in the US, and others who are even, appreciated the reminder on what flavor of shitty she is. Even if it was from rude comments responding to you. It’s just hard to keep up with all of it all the time. I’m sure there is some jackass who will show up in the news tomorrow that I won’t remember what disgusting thing he did or said was, until I’m reminded.

Well, I chuckled when I reached the end of your comment. …and then a bit more at that exchange over not getting it.

Then, woke my dog and spooked a cat with the snort-honk sound or whatever that was I just did, seeing a second one AND downvotes over folks not getting it. Even with you explaining it. Wowza.

I appreciate ya! I need these random smiles amongst the heavy news.

…left *there

My dumb trick for checking, in case it helps another: T(here and there), which also helps with here and hear.

English is dumb, and after writing this out and spelling it several times, needing to correct the autocorrect… it all looks wrong now, and I am questioning my spelling abilities entirely.

Oh, you’re good. Even old, I still get a little high strung on some topics. I’ve worked various forms of service jobs and, yeah, they all sucked. Food has to be one of the absolute worst, retail next. All are still varied degrees of suck. Sales is it’s own separate hell hole. Trades people I’ve been close too don’t have it much better, unless they get to a union type gig. Trying to claw out on a new degree, if …this… is all here by the end of it, haha.

Good to hear things turned up for you, hopefully it’ll keep getting better too! No one deserves to experience homelessness. I’ve lived in trailer parks, uptown, suburban tacky, downtown, nomadic camper, bad side of town… and my homeless stint wasn’t long thankfully, compared to the rest of my life, but left the deepest hardest memory. Running closing dish on a mother’s day, half staffed shift, covering for fry and bussers, would’ve been 100x preferred.

Fucking hell. Mine, my SO’s and all our restaurant/holel/ retail fam. … and then the rest of the fuckers only hire through staffing services, which are usually a crock of shit on multiple fronts.

After some moving around over the years we were surprised to learn that Arizona of all places, gives paid sick time, accrued based on how many hours you’ve worked, up to 40 a year. Part or full, so it seemed like less incentive to keep employees riding just under.

Still gonna need 2 jobs or more, like fucking everywhere anymore. Oh, and wait staff gets paid more than this $1-$2 bullshit that’s still so popular.

Sorry. Part of my memories got riled up. Really, just wanted to point out the oddity we found.

I had to go looking, since I was always told the same, in re. German immigrants and blending food habits.

From Wikipedia:
Etymology and terminology The term hamburger originally derives from Hamburg, the second-largest city in Germany; however, there is no specific connection between the dish and the city.[4]

By linguistic rebracketing, the term “burger” eventually became a self-standing word that is associated with many different types of sandwiches that are similar to a hamburger, but contain different meats such as buffalo in the buffalo burger, venison, kangaroo, chicken, turkey, elk, lamb or fish such as salmon in the salmon burger, and even with meatless sandwiches as is the case of the veggie burger.[5]

The term burger can also be applied to a meat patty on its own. Since the term hamburger usually implies beef, for clarity burger may be prefixed with the type of meat or meat substitute used, as in beef burger, turkey burger, bison burger, or portobello burger. In most English-speaking countries, including the United Kingdom, Ireland, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, a piece of chicken breast in a bun is a chicken burger. Americans would call this a chicken sandwich because the meat is not ground, whereas in other countries, anything with a bun is considered a burger and a sandwich uses other types of bread (sliced bread, baguette…).[6][7][8][9]

Glad it doesn’t only happen to me! Lemmy juust small enough still that I regularly find myself on some old posts, especially when checking out a “new to me” community. May your comment help the next passer-by!

Yeah, can’t believe I was misgendered before even seeing the post. Damn. Time to tell my fam I’M the man of the family now.

Lol 😆 Thanks for that. I know we shouldn’t feed the trolls but, hopefully how ever many minutes they have spent responding to me, has brought that many minutes peace to someone else!

My brain immediately saw the meme of the the blond woman “inquiring intensifies” Edit: Like this!

Omg!! This is how we get there, isnt it?! 😳

No fucking clue where you are pulling this shit from other than your ass. You’re “knowledge of a strangers life and intentions” remind me of my SO when they need their bipolar meds assessed again. I don’t say this with malice, I say this with ptsd from those incidents.

I am not projecting ANYTHING. I responded to a rude asshole stranger online, in kind, after they went off to left field and directed mockery and insults to me and my person, for a statement. A statement from a mental health website, directly copied and pasted.

I do not know you. I made a comment in reference to ~ A MEME IS HUMOR, under a comment, as it did not seem to be related to someone who realized -it’s a joke. A joke is a coping mechanism some people use. It wasn’t directed at a single person to cause them harm, it seemed self directed by the poster, I and others felt we related in ways to an issue, or issues, we cope/deal with. Each person gets to decide for THEMSELVES what works best with them. Unless you are licensed, and a person has indicated they want your assistance or are under tour care, you can’t decide on/force someone else to cope in a particular way. Shit, I and plenty people, have even disregarded our solicited professional as their guidance didn’t fit right, and sought different/further direction from someone else.

Sure now that you mention it, I wish I had been a rich kid. Would have made life a lot easier, who wouldn’t. Especially with my “I feel like I lead a double life due to who I have to pretend to be to the public” issues.

But since you KNOW ALL, OH SENTIENT INTERNET STRANGER guess I’m wrong… about me?

This has now been to much of my life’s time spent on this inanity over a meme comment. I will not be engaging further, as I have real things to do with people I know and care about and who are kind to myself and others. I do wish you the best in getting what you are needing, but I cannot provide it.

It was more like echo-locate echo-locate, than a squak.

Didn’t realize providing information would be considered an insult on lemmy. I figured all the Magats had been driven away by now.

And, I don’t know what meme has hurt you, but you may be in the wrong community. Usually “meme” in the community title will indicate that it is not meant to be serious there, and you should never rely on social media for medical guidance/assistance.

Def did not expect it to get you so angry you go all bird-man and lose your human word-ability. Shit. Hope you feel better and find the right professional for you.

Humor therapy, also known as therapeutic humor, uses laughter and humor to promote healing and improve mental and physical health. It can help reduce stress, enhance mood, and even boost the immune system, making it a valuable tool in various therapeutic settings.

I was thinking it was Tiny Toons that introduced me to this one? Though, so many years ago… not so sure anymore, with as much as I watched all the toons back then.

As an older woman studying cybersecurity as well, it is very good to hear this from y’all.

Not who you asked but, I’m still early on and have heard I should go ahead and start some certifications on my own. Suggestions on the first few possibly from someone in the field?

Discord got me hooked. Cheese Sandwich made me realize there was never any going back now.

Whoosh!

You really didn’t see what I was doing there, huh?
