That's one thing I don't miss about reddit. Thousands of people rushing to be the first one to make the same tired joke. It was funny until every other comment was the same three jokes.
Thus far it's the whole olive meme. Have you tried 30 to 40 olives. I see that and similar varients too much. The olive thing was barely a chuckle to begin with.
I was seriously just sitting here being annoyed at deleted comments when I saw this. It's actively harmful to coherent discussion to delete a comment after it's been responded/reacted to, and it pisses me off that so many people seem to think it's okay, or even laudable, to purge your history of participation in discourse.
Hahaha, so this was a pretty large misunderstanding and I thought you literally posted "Deleted by creator 🗑" as an example of something that was harmful to Lemmy. I thought I was agreeing with you. 😄
Way back when some guy on Reddit claimed to have broken both his arms and that his mom started giving him hand jobs because he couldn't do it him self. Reddit being Reddit decides this is a true story.
The best part is that he never said he broke both arms, and would often come out of the woodwork to correct people with the ambiguous "lost the use of both arms."

Is nobody going to address the appendage connecting (or at least touching) the two of them?
That's the umbilical cord, nothing to worry about
That's the secret twist at the end. She has three arms!!!

Eh, let's not pretend that Lemmy is a bastion of intellectualism. The same comments are in this thread, except fewer.
What's gonna be Lemmy's "The narwhal bacons at midnight?" 🤔
Something to do with beans, probably
The beans bake after three days.
Fuck spez???
Could be the holding in your shit for a week or whatever it was meme

Yeah, I never understood it, nor why they were always upvoted by the hundreds.

I half read the guys comment and ended up repeating what he already said so I deleted it and made another one. I did this fairly quick.
Edit to add a screenshot of what you’re mad about being deleted.

Might be the new way 0.19 is handling deleted comments. I’m seeing this all over.
As Iconic as:
Don't forget your poop knife
Haha I still reference that.
Man these stories really make me miss the old reddit.. you know 8-12 years ago....
It went okay
You like that you fucking retard
Shittymorph was great. He didn't beat it to death, even dropped out for a long time. Just dropped stealth bombs now and again.
Great human interest story:

Whew. So bad
You left out the sock
The box... The coconut. Disgusting
And "Swamps of Dagobah"
God, jumper cables was my favourite. Just so poetic sometimes.

Damn. At this point, that story is like a reddit archeological site from the ancient past.
Looking back, Reddit used to be such a hive for degeneracy. It was like a slightly more intellectual 4chan.
We probably won't see stories like this on the fediverse, and that's likely a good thing.

Am I missing something?

Iirc, it evolved into a full fledged affair between mom & son, am I correct? The dad knew, and although he wasn’t too happy, he was ok with it.
It was an AMA and the mods were able to confirm the guys story for what that's worth.
How the fuck do you confirm a story like that
It was supposedly a part of some documentary
Yeah this is right. I think it was a psychologist who studied incestuous relationships and this guy was part of it.
I was around when the thread first appeared. The moderators verified it... Somehow. I don't know how and I don't want to know.
The best part is that he never said he broke both arms, and would often come out of the woodwork to correct people with the ambiguous "lost the use of both arms."
I was gonna say you don’t want to know, but somebody has already ruined it lol

God I hate ai generated pictures. I can't help it.
