I’m more concerned of what they’ll think of all the BDSM stuff they find.

When the rich wage war, it’s the poor who die.

You’re still in bed at ten, your work began at eight.

You’ve burnt your breakfast, so far, things are going great.

Your mother warned you there’d be days like these.

But she didn’t tell you when the world has brought you down to your kneeeeeees!

That

I’ll be there foooor yoooooooou!

The Nintendo Switch 2.

Hey now, I resent that. I read at a ninth grade level!

Donkey Kong sucks!

It’s in the computer!

Chosimba, you must take your place in the great circle of…. Stuff.

God I love this movie.

Wii U! Wii U! Wii U! Wii!

9/10 dentists are against flouride in water because they want you to swing by more often.

My man cave.

Can’t afford going on trips to places.

Looking forward to: My weekend.

Dreading: monday.

It also tastes good.

Tastebuds: That’s Future Hyphlosion’s problem.

Tapatio hot sauce (or Valentinos), Crystal hot sauce, garlic powder, salt, pepper, sriracha.

All on the same pizza.

No. My job depends on results. Alcohol affects my production. Therefore, drinking on workdays is a very dumb thing for me to do.

Edit: Downvoted because alcohol gives me terrible brain fog and I want to keep my job? Alrighty then…

Next time I’ll ask her if she’s the daughter of the Nigerian prince.

Hi, number! It’s your colleague: Another number!

Can we get to Jupiter through Earth? No, but at least there’s beaver.

Class 13 Death World

Is it possible to tie my lemmy account to my Mastodon account?

Thanks to the first sentence, I read this comment in the voice of The Narrator from George of the Jungle.

Too much protein can fuck up your sleeping schedule. Especially if it’s lean protein with little fat. Happened to me when I was eating too many chili cheese smoked sausages all the time because I was lazy. They’re delicious though.

That’s okay. Sasquatch doesn’t believe in you, either.

No they haven’t. Not even close.

And even if they did, you think a people-shy creature is just going to remain in the same exact spot for someone mapping out an area to come across them?

There are some who call me Tim. I can summon controversy without flint or tinder.

I believe in the possibility of bigfoot being real.

Oregano-s and Oregon-O’s. I like it.

I like to look at it this way. The full name of Mexico is the United States of Mexico. But we still call them Mexicans.

It’s totally okay to call people from the United States of America as Americans. Everyone knows what you mean anyways.

I wish Oregonians were called Oregonos instead because sounding like a spice is cool. lol

Asians to the east. Usians to the west.

If we have a toilet paper shortage, I’m blaming you. lol

I first read this as “Don’t talk about people’s backs” and I was in agreement with that cus that would be creepy. lol

Caffeine time…

This is an awesome response. When you think about it, a similar saying is “Read the room.” While not entirely 1:1, it’s a similar theme of employing empathy.

Your coworkers are not your therapists. If they say “are you ok?” you’re not required to answer them truthfully. You can just say “I’m fine, thanks” and then ask how they are doing or whatever. Be careful what you say to others in the workplace. It can be used against you. Your coworkers are not your friends. (Generally speaking. It can happen, of course. But you should still remain professional at work.) Some can actively be looking for any excuse to screw you over so they can get ahead in their job.

As for “think before you speak” I think of that as “think about what your response will be before saying it.” You don’t have to think while speaking. That shit can trip you up big time. Think of conversation as a round of tennis or ping pong. It’s just a back and forth.

And yes, in the workplace it’s a good idea to keep a lot of shit to yourself. Remember that they have their own stuff to deal with. Often people are just being polite when they ask you what’s wrong or whatever. They might just be catching bad vibes and are wanting to know it’s going to affect them. Or they’re drama llamas and want to soak it up or, again have ammo to use against you later.

You can be yourself at the workplace without spilling your guts out or making yourself vulnerable to everyone. You’ve already shared your solution: Often you should keep things to yourself and just talk about work-related things. Leave any political opinions at the door. Keep social interactions as shallow as possible if it’s not work related. Social stuff like food, the weather, what you saw on Netflix, etc. Shallow stuff that doesn’t offend anyone or expose your belly to them, etc.

Welcome to the adult working life of walking on eggshells. It is indeed taxing.

English, that language that borrows words from everywhere else?

Never seen that movie, but wouldn’t teleportation just kill you from the demolecularzation or whatever?

I remember in High School where we were pressured into having to choose a political party for our US Government class.

Yeah I thought the 2-party system was stupid then too and absolutely refused to pick a side. It was clear to me then, even as a teen, that people’s opinions change over time as they themselves change. Party loyalty is bullshit.
