And I'm sorry that I wasn't clear. At first I missed the emoticon before catching it after. I should have been more clear my frustration was at the concept you were also poking fun at, not at you yourself. I was just waking up and the frustration I have for that line of thinking took full force there, the jokey lines in my head just didn't materialize.

I'm just supremely tired of seeing the people who actually do it, full throated. Doesn't even matter if it's dnd, just stuff in general. Like it seems to be harder and harder to find a conversation about the alternative of something that isn't just "This sucks so mine is better."

Sorry. I need to actually wake up before getting on lemmy, not looking at it from the toilet first thing. That's on me

No worries man, we all have days like that. I certainly do!

I'm the same way with food snobbery tbh. I see even jokes about it, and it just gets under my skin, even when I am fully awake and can tell it's a joke. There's that flash of "this motherfucker" before I exert control of my brain. So I totally get it.

I'm just sorry I picked a bad joke to try. Like I said, they can't all be winners, but looking back at it, it was a lame attempt.

Nah dude. You have literally nothing to apologize for. It's all on me for not thinking first and not even waking up first before commenting. I can be bitchy as hell before all the gears are grinding properly and I definitely didn't hold the leash on that one.

Don't apologize. It's all on me. I'm sorry buddy.

You sound like me!

We have a household rule: don't talk to south until he's awake. How can you tell he's awake? Has he been moving for at least an hour? If yes, then he may be awake, but there's no promises. If not, then treat him like you would a manbearpig freshly out of hibernation.

The grunts and croaks that pass as communication from me that first bit are a passable caveman shtick.

Not too dissimilar here. Roommate has learned to avoid me at all costs until my tone of voice doesn't sound like a serial killer. I thought a cpap machine would help with that part of my sleep habits too. It did not.
