>it feels gross and i hate getting wet
>my mom starts telling me that if i don't shower every day then i can't eat dinner
>i want my dindin so i come up with a genius plan
>let the shower run for 10-15 minutes while i sit in the bathroom
>quickly wet my hair with sink
>mom buys it, i get dindin
>after a month she gets suspicious
>realize i have to step up my game
>now i run the shower and rub my arms/neck with hand soap
>also run my hair under the shower so it's dripping wet and not just moist
>she asks why i haven't asked her to buy shampoo yet
>come up with final version of my genius plan
>i'll stand next to the shower, let the water run, rub soap on my whole body and also use shampoo on my hair so it smells like shampoo
>then i'll rinse off in the sink
>all while the shower runs
i did this for four years until i realized i was just showering on hard mode
It was a slur the entire time millennials were growing up. It hasn't not been a slur since...the 70s?
So was removed and the n word. The fact that I can spell out one but not the other is also kinda my point.
I'm retarded. It takes me longer to figure things out than most. I'm not ashamed of that. In fact when I finally figure something out, I actually understand it better than the average person.
Edit: Wow you can't even say f a g g o t on lemmy. From a bisexual standpoint that's fucked up
I think maybe that's a lemmy.world thing? I did a test and I can say it. I see removed in your comment though and if you view my test from your instance (not my sh.itjust.works link above) I suspect you won't see it.
Unless you're trolling.
Yeah it's apparently specific to my instance. That's pretty fuckin annoying. Is sh.itjust.works still federated with hexbear?
That's an interesting question actually. We had a vote and the result was to defederate but I still sometimes see the odd comment from a user. I never see their communities though. Might be similar to what lemmy.world did to kbin.social
Wait what the hell? Why is it censored? I thought the filter was all or nothing.
For testing purposes: "faggot"
I don't know why, but this comment caught me off guard and made me laugh. It's even funnier if you take away the context of the rest of the thread.
Glad you enjoyed it lol. I did it as a self reply because I realized it would be a really weird reply notification to get with no context.
Lemmy is just Diet Reddit
I think you mean lemmy.world and that appears to be by design. Someone was going to want to fill that void but at least with lemmy we have options.
