Can someone find the one where all of the buttons say “It is what it is” as well?

I would do it, but I’m all out of it is what it is

Oh, wait, all I do is quote Terry Pratchett and occasionally shitpost

I’m probably not a bot

BTW have you tried Skub? It’s pretty amazing. I’d link it but it’s against sub rules. Hit me up with a DM if you’d like to know more

I think you were correct in your top comment

It’s a joke. You don’t get it.

That’s okay

Gypsies?

Yank?

Cry harder, Europoor

lol j/k, i don’t care where you’re from, and Europe is largely an awesome continent full of quite lovely people. Except for you. You’re not just an ass, but a prejudiced one. Gypsies? Really? And all Yanks are murderers? It’s only mostly murderers over here

I do agree with you on one thing though. Killing people over stuff is wrong. Thieves only deserve a beating. You just got to make them cry. Real, bubbly tears. Make em regret the decision and think harder before doing it again. Also, bring back corporal punishment in schools. And it’s pronounced “gif”

…and this is the puffy-faced fizzblood. We have learned many interesting things about Terra from these creatures. For instance, while they often cry blood, occasionally their eyes will just, you know, burst. Seems to be pretty random, we think they evolved to burst their eyes to confuse predators

“It’s not as simple as that. It’s not a black and white issue. There are so many shades of gray.”

“Nope.”

“Pardon?”

“There’s no grays, only white that’s got grubby. I’m surprised you don’t know that. And sin, young man, is when you treat people as things. Including yourself. That’s what sin is.”

Reaper Man - Terry Pratchett

I actually don’t agree with this sentiment, but this is now a Discworld thread, and I can’t stop it

I had a friend that played this obsessively back in the day. He’d always play as the empire, and his strategy was to find Thrawn ASAP and then wipe the board using Thrawn’s strategic buffs. Or at least that’s how I remember it

I’ve got Prime from work so I think I’ll grab this, thanks for the post OP :-)

Does one loose social ties with a catapult? A trebuchet? Are social ties loosed as one would arrows from a bow? Personally I loosen my ties by pulling down on the knot, away from the neck

"'I meant,’ said Iplsore bitterly, ‘what is there in this world that makes living worthwhile?’

Death thought about it.

‘CATS,’ he said eventually, ‘CATS ARE NICE’"

I thought that weather forecast was either a reminder or advice lol

I appreciate the sentiment in point two. I feel similar when others speak of suicide. In this case I think of this more as death with dignity for the terminally ill. And it’s years away, so don’t lose sleep over me.

Also, i don’t get the pushback you’ve received for wishing someone will continue to live. It’s a weird hill to die on (heh, puns)

Anyway, thanks for the kindness and have a good life

I’m self employed. I enjoy my work. It’s very rewarding, but every time i get a little extra money sometime comes along and takes it.

I have no retirement savings. My retirement plan is to kill myself when I’m too sick to work. I’ve made sure my life insurance is written so that it will pay out to my wife even if I off myself.

I come from a long line of men who don’t die easy. I watched my grandfather refuse food or water after being diagnosed with stage 4 bone cancer and still live for two weeks. That was after ten years of enduring strike recovery. My dad coughed up a lung from congestive heart failure for over two years before finally wasting away, looking like a pregnant Holocaust survivor. Same for several other uncles and great-uncles. I figure I’ve got another 25 years before I’m a liability. I’m already physically miserable. Middle age sucks. Old age sucks even harder and I’m not even there yet.

I’m gonna follow one of my great-uncles examples and go for a walk in the woods. I’ll make sure whatever SARs volunteer that draws the short straw isn’t too traumatized when they find me. Just another old man that chose his own time

ETA: to be clear, i don’t wish to die (any more than normal lol). But I am pragmatic about the reality of old age and my likely path. Will I feel the same in 25-35 years? Maybe not. We’ll see what happens. Perhaps our fortunes will change for the better, perhaps we will be able to immigrate to a nation that has better social safety nets, perhaps we die in a meteor strike in 2039

I’ve only been to two therapists. Mostly because it’s so much goddamned work just to get an appointment, let alone talk to someone. So many unreturned calls and ignored emails. So many broken websites.

The first therapist I tried I had a great initial visit, tried scheduling a follow-up and the front desk people were unresponsive, then got a message that my therapist was no longer with that office. Dunno if he died or moved but I can’t find the dude.

Three years later I tried again at a different office, got told that in Japan ADHD doesn’t exist and that i needed to buy a light therapy panel to open my third eye.

I’m tired boss
