minus-squareokamiueru@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up8·11 months agoCompletely not relevant to anything here, and apologies for that, but what is behind the use of that emoji? I’ve seen it more the past 2-3 years, and this is likely a old-fart issue. Maybe something from TikTok?
minus-squareJWBananas@startrek.websitelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up8·11 months ago“I’m dead.” As in “I died of laughter.” I don’t see its relevance here though.
minus-squareSARGEx117@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up9arrow-down2·11 months agoI imagine it’s “what is there to debate you people are so fucking stupid lmao I’m so much smarter because I don’t have to debate it” Completely missing the point of debate. And the fact that learning institutions will have you argue a point you don’t believe in to practice the skill of… Wait for it… Debate. So not really relevant, just someone either being misunderstood just trying to make a joke, or someone who doesn’t understand colleges.
