We've all heard the rumors about that guy's mother.

[–] tlou3please@lemmy.world 12 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I've been inside his mother jokes on him

[–] unemployedclaquer@sopuli.xyz 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

an old me was like that makes no sense but a later iteration of me was like oh just no punctuation the me typing this is like fuck it enjoy your day

[–] tetris11@lemmy.ml 0 points 10 months ago (1 children)

"being inside your mother's jokes" is a pretty common expression. It means that one sucks so hard that even another's mother is making fun of you

[–] unemployedclaquer@sopuli.xyz 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

it's ok that you didn't get whatever terribly dry humor i failed at. but i am quite concerned that you would try to explain Yo Momma jokes.

[–] tetris11@lemmy.ml 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

the yo momma quips of today harken back to the dein mutti barbs often exchanged between warring Germanic tribes with the Romans they conquered. Historians believe the vulgarizations to be universal thus ensuring their efficacy across different tongues

[–] unemployedclaquer@sopuli.xyz 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

well, that is a proud and proper riposte. well done. i don't know if you are lying and I don't care.

Lies were invented by wooly mammoths before their extinction by post-agriculture humans who kept feeding them bad bread to hunt them easier. At the time, the only evasion strategy was to convince the predators that they were small badgers.

[–] unemployedclaquer@sopuli.xyz 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

impossible because early humans were using throwy things with their spears to make them faster and get more hit points. the only people who wanted to be badgers were the original australians, who were pretending to be african honey badgers, which they had never heard of,, but boxing kangaroos is crazy dangerous so they had to come up with something.

[–] tetris11@lemmy.ml 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I believe you are quoting Steptoe et al (2018)'s study on the boxing mechanisms of Oceanic wildlife, but that was refuted in a follow up paper by Klingon et al (2020) which could not replicate the early enthusiasm that the indigenous population had for badgers, nor the spear tips for the speed. Though it is indeed known that one can run faster whilst holding a knife in a contemporary setting such as the olympics, studies have not shown this to be the case in a honey badger setting.

[–] unemployedclaquer@sopuli.xyz 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Klingon is a known reprobate from several hundred years in the future. We know his father was descended from Worf, a most fierce and honorable warrior the likes we've never heard, because it hasn't happened yet. But his works completely failed to address the Atlantic Multi-Donged Squid, which attacked the Sydney coast repeatedly in March of 2020.

[–] tetris11@lemmy.ml 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

That attack was justified, to preserve the ongoing peace between the Pacific and Atlantic molluscs, all of which are subservient to Worf but decidedely not to his future Klingon progeny. To suggest otherwise is separatist heresy.

as a citizen scientist, i strongly disagree. you speak of shellfish, academically! while a lonely starving writer from some seacoast shithole makes up a bunch of shit. As Cthculu the god of unspellable god names would like to remind you, hi!

[–] tetris11@lemmy.ml 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Forgive me, I did not wish to gain the ire of a loyal devotee of the Great Old One nor a citizen from the Republic of Science. I speak only from the perspective of a lowly decapod who has seen enough turbulent waters to know what it means when fire meets noxious wind.

[–] unemployedclaquer@sopuli.xyz 1 points 10 months ago

nah! your insights have been most inspiring. i do apologize for the delay as after our most recent discourse i descended to the uppermost heights of my waterlogged dungeon library for a fortnight. i found the most dreadful poem attributed to none other than The Caterwauling Fellows and it is an amazing document of undersea carnivorous plant life. i shall have a monk transcribe it and ship it to you via bird forthwith.

[–] shukufuku@lemmy.ml 21 points 10 months ago

That guy has never done anything to help me

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 16 points 10 months ago

Night time me is always screwing over morning me. Dude never cares enough to get me enough sleep.

[–] deadbeef79000@lemmy.nz 12 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Future me sucks, he gets all my stuff.

[–] lauha@lemmy.one 10 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (2 children)

You can prevent his inheritance by selling all your stuff before the future

Edit..typo

[–] deadbeef79000@lemmy.nz 9 points 10 months ago

buy selling

I'm enjoying this far more than I should.

[–] kerrypacker@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

Heroin will show him.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

You should hear what my present self has to say about me. Just another asshole in my life.

[–] MonkderVierte@lemmy.ml 4 points 10 months ago

That's some self hate right there.

[–] Zozano@lemy.lol 4 points 10 months ago

My dumb ass scrolling past this thought "your future self is taking a shit"

I really hope future me has had enough fibre.
