i know I'll get downvoted to oblivion for saying this but I don't care; I think this is disgusting. i don't like shaming people for who they are or what they do, or bullying of any kind, BUT i also think it's absolutely apprehensible behavior to engage in a romantic relationship with someone who uses discord.

No, no, no! Come on! Cooper was right... This guy wants to have sex with me!

"Listen, Mieke... I don't want to arrange any meetings with you, you sick, German freak. So please keep your hands off my genitals, and never write to me again, and don't come to America. Goodbye."

Amazing movie

Mi scusi

[–] buddascrayon@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

Real talk here, Eurotrip was a leagues better internet relationship story than Ready Player One could ever hope to be.

Is the problem that she uses Gnome, or that she uses dark mode?

[–] iAmTheTot@sh.itjust.works 56 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Doesn't that look more like Windows 11?

[–] jia_tan@lemmy.blahaj.zone 40 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Windows 11 did rip off gnome 🤔

[–] Artyom@lemm.ee 3 points 2 months ago

Ummm...Windows 11 was way more of a KDE ripoff than a gnome ripoff.

Maybe she's just cheating and accidently sent you a private pic from the person she's cheating with, don't give up hope /s

[–] nieceandtows@programming.dev 12 points 2 months ago

You vs the guy she tells you not to worry about

Can't rule out that's a close-up of a capybara. Gf is 3 capybaras stacked in a trenchcoat? Rule 1 of the Internet--pics or she never happened.

[–] reallykindasorta@slrpnk.net 8 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Which number is “there are no girls on the internet?”

[–] VicksVaporBBQrub@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 months ago

I heard this one as, "everyone is a cat".

Quick search says Internet Rule 29 0r 30, "the men are nen, the women are men, or cats, or undercover cops".

Also, "...almost none of the numbers are standardized".

[–] ryedaft@sh.itjust.works 23 points 2 months ago

I don't get it

Isn't it pretty normal not to shave your legs?

[–] 2ugly2live@lemmy.world 17 points 2 months ago (4 children)

Hahaha, she's fat. The horror. The betrayal. He thought he had a girl who loved him, but little did he know she was fat. And nothing is more horrific than that. Thank God he found out, he might have started caring about her, like an idiot.

[–] Trashbones@lemmy.sdf.org 39 points 2 months ago (3 children)

I assumed the joke was his "girlfriend" was a man who's been lying to him, at least that was my initial thought from the exceptionally hairy legs.

[–] PolarKraken@sh.itjust.works 16 points 2 months ago

Seems like the obvious joke to me too...

It's okay to be disappointed if you exchange pics with an online flirt and it turns out they're fat.

[–] 2ugly2live@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

It is. It's not okay to post them on the internet so people can mock them because you them unattractive. If she was missing a leg, or had scars from self harm, or burn marks, he probably wouldn't have posted her on the internet so people could join in on his disappointment.

Why is everyone assuming this is about weight? What's the reverse image search part mean? I feel like there's something else to this.

[–] 2ugly2live@lemmy.world 16 points 2 months ago (4 children)

When he attempted to reverse search the image, he didn't find any matches which lead him to believe this is a real photo from the person he's chatting with and not a joke or something like that. There are two assumptions (based on this thread anyway, order has no bearings on which one is more "true" or not).

  1. (My assumption) He is disappointed because the girl is fat/hairy and therefore unattractive and unworthy of his affection.

  2. He is disappointed because the hairy leg makes him think his "girlfriend" is his "boyfriend," otherwise known as a catfish, and he is feeling tricked/embarrassed/hurt/etc.

My knee jerk assumption was weight. When I encounter posts with fat people, I'm used to people responding in revulsion so I took that train of thought.

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

I think (2) is the far more likely scenario.

Without context this isn't funny and the most i can get out of it is that it is fat shaming and/or shaming unshaved legs

[–] daggermoon@lemmy.world 63 points 2 months ago

I think the implication is OP got catfished

[–] untakenusername@sh.itjust.works 10 points 2 months ago (1 children)
[–] blarghly@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

The context is that OOP got catfished by a dude. The joke is that they were naive enough to fall for it in this day and age.
