In my opinion, everyone is a complete and independent individual, and they should make positive evaluations of themselves
I'm positive I'm a dumbass.
@dumbass@lemmy.world @dumbass@sh.itjust.works @dumbass@sopuli.xyz
Lot of that going around, apparently.
We are many and we are dumb!
In other words, you wanted to say: "You're a complete dumbass and are not even able to describe yourself properly!"?
No.I am Chinese,I don't know how to articulate my viewpoint precisely.
Chalk it up to cultural differences
I would start the sentence with the things I liked the most about myself and follow it with connecting phrases to include additional ancillary facts about myself that are interesting.
Technically correct, the best kind of correct.
How I would bescribe myself: "behold! I will now write my name on my arm."
How I woukd describe myself:"The Disillusioned-with-reality guy."
so cool
An introvert who has come to realize community is essential
Me. Introversion doesn't mean individualism. We can support the community in many ways, we can participate in it and bond with it. And this makes us stronger.
In case you didn't know, I use Arch Linux.
I love the poetic typos in this question.
Bescribe? I suppose I would bescribe myself by offering to write something for someone.
Asentence? What a magical sounding word. An asentance sounds like it means a non- sentence or something that transcends sentencing.
Not quick to anger
Been around for awhile
Tall (for a girl)
Bescribing is when you receive personalized, custom-made descriptions.
Do you understand that even rather restrictive English grammar still allows to make a sentence of arbitrary length?
There are several books which are hundreds of pages while measuring in the single-digits in sentences, it's one of my favorite genres. Commas, semicolons, and emdashes are your best friends
The description that can be spoken is not the Eternal description. That said: I'm a fucking fairy in combat boots.
Some decades back I described myself in a social organisation's yearbook as "Degenerate freeloader and card-carrying pope" - which should indicate my influences at the time.
I no longer carry a pope card.
card-carrying pope
In related news, just a couple minutes ago I Learned there were four popes named "Sergius" over a millenium ago!
Surprisingly indescribable.
Well adapted alien to this planet
Well that's relatable
I know where my towel is.
Hey, you sass that hoopy Pat_Riot? There's a frood who really knows where his towel is.
Physically lazy with a mind that never stops thinking of solutions to problems that may one day exist.
Despectacled.
I'm trapped inbetween two empires that hates me with no place to call "home"
I am a nondescript thing that moves through time and space without attracting attention.
I'm inbescribable
Damaged and angry, but harmless.
I am's what I am and that's all that I am's.
Tall dark and average looking 🥹
I'm tired of this, Grandpa.
Tall, Scottish nerd that works with computers.
Bet me count the ways.
