That’s for when your car is out of gas. If you’re fully car dependent then the gas station is the one place you could ever be forced to walk to.

I’m guessing the thought process is “well if my car is out of gas, that’s the one place I’d actually have to walk to.”

“We won’t use your calls to train AI without your consent, so it’s a good thing our new TOS includes you giving us your consent.”

Bonus, let’s nix the football team too. We don’t need the traumatic brain injuries.

Some of it can be done during study hall, while kids are doing their work.

Without normalizing for the number of these vehicles on the road this data is not meaningful. No matter how much I appreciate the depiction of cars as murder machines.

There were zero children killed by Titan submarines in the last twenty years, we should clearly take inspiration from this beacon of safety!

How did that text document get in your meme

It’s not that you misquoted a line or something like that. The dictionary quote is an extremely well known saying that originated in the Bible. Zapp’s line in futurama is literally parodying that saying. By thinking the dictionary is in any way referencing the Futurama scene, you have revealed that you didn’t even get the joke in the first place.

The original Klingon of course

I always feel like I’m in the minority when it comes to action sequences. They are 80% of the time the most boring part of a movie. Plot and character development don’t happen during them, and usually (especially for the big climactic fight scene) the outcome is certain.

For me, the only exceptions are generally:

Fights that the heroes might actually lose. (So usually, the fights earlier in the show)

Fights where there are good character moments or development during it. (The Princess Bride sword fight scene is a classic for this)

Fights with lots of good strategy/tactics in them. (Game of Thrones had a lot of this, at least prior to the last season)

There are a very few fight scenes I’ll actually enjoy outside of these ones, and it feels like many action movies don’t bother with any of this.

Manipulating emotion is literally the point of all music you silly goose

Independent of other factors, running the AC definitely does.

October/October no notes

Because piracy isn’t legal. For anything that can run afoul of the law, or bad publicity, or advertisers’ preferences, Reddit admins have to keep the content on a tight leash. Lemmy doesn’t have advertisers to worry about as it’s supported directly by users, and not being a for-profit company makes it somewhat harder for the law to come down on it (and if they do, the community can easily move). Really, it’s a fundamental advantage of federation.

I’m like 80% certain that you’re trolling and no one could be this thick, but just in case: I’m talking about the sex of the baby determining which parent the baby is handed to. That is what is not a thing.

I’m sorry what? That is not a thing

Can’t wait to see /r/trees started posting about actual trees

One thing I don’t understand about Lemmy is, how do you do stuff across instances? For example I’m on Lemmy.world, but clicking a link to that sub Lemmy takes me to Lemmy.ml, where I’m obviously not logged on. How am I expected to interact with that community?

Edit: I was able to find and post this comment by manually typing in the address into the URL, which surely isn’t how this is supposed to work

That really sounds like a verb for the thing I do with my second Reddit account.
