What are some idioms that no longer make sense? Can you think of a modern replacement?

You leave my Greg alone. He's perfectly capable pulling himself & if he needs help I have gloves!

When I see ten other people wearing the same flanel as me on the first day of Autumn
Yes. Whatever this is it's the best one I've seen in some time. Saved for future reference.

What is your usual request when you're getting a haircut?
I cut my own hair so: ..."Don't fuck it up. Don't fuck it up. Don't fuck it up. That's enough! Stop being pedantic."
Something like this.

What software does not exist but you wish it did?
Reply in thread
That is definitely a good idea and I'd be surprised if someone isn't already doing it. If not, you should! At least a website (might exist already in some form) to plug in a business or company and see all of it's affiliates and parent company/ies.

Alaska w/ an area of 1.7m sq/km or 663k sq/Freedom Units compared to Western Australia 2.5m sq/km or 975k sq/Freedom Units I'm not sure about that... But I suppose it's possible.

What is a psychological "cheat code" you use in everyday life that actually works?
Just tell yourself you're not going to lift heavy/are going to lift light. When you don't have the motivation (or whatever) to go to the gym, tell yourself this. Like, "I'm not going to work too hard. It'll be easy." Works a treat. Then even if you end up doing that (which is unlikely - I always end up getting in the mood hehe) then at least you did something and kept the momentum.
Edit to say: The hardest lift is getting off the couch.

Florida prisoner had sex with woman in porta-potty at sheriff’s BBQ: Complaint
Firstly, how is this news? Second: Charged with Prisoner escape or attempted escape??? The dude clearly was not trying to escape. An early release maybe, but not an escape. "Prisons are over crowded." Mhhmm, mhhmm... Let's have this guy in prison for the next 15 years on a bullshit charge.

How can it spread germs if the germs are 99% gone after having washed your hands with soap? We're assuming people aren't washing their hands properly, right?

What successful or popular movie that many loved you just HATE?
This thread confirms my theory: For everything universally loved there is a person on the internet that thinks it's shite.

Average Lemmy user after the reddit appocalypse
I would consider myself an average Lemmy user. However I followed the R****t collapse closely from May onwards. 'Cast it into the fire' yes, but not just because third party apps all-of-a-sudden shut down.

Germany: Alcohol-free beer sales double in past decade
Reply in thread
It has almost none of the cons... But yes, none of the pros other than many of them taste pretty darn close to real beer. You should educate yourself on how detrimental alcohol consumption is AND how calorie dense it is. You may change your mind on 'none of the pros' 👍
