In case you didn't know, I use Arch Linux.

Damaged and angry, but harmless.

[–] gAlienLifeform@lemmy.world 2 points 2 hours ago

An introvert who has come to realize community is essential

[–] moondoggie@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

Surprisingly indescribable.

The description that can be spoken is not the Eternal description. That said: I'm a fucking fairy in combat boots.

In my opinion, everyone is a complete and independent individual, and they should make positive evaluations of themselves

[–] dumbass@piefed.social 12 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

I'm positive I'm a dumbass.

@dumbass@lemmy.world @dumbass@sh.itjust.works @dumbass@sopuli.xyz

Lot of that going around, apparently.

[–] dumbass@piefed.social 1 points 5 hours ago

We are many and we are dumb!

[–] Lembot_0006@programming.dev 1 points 5 hours ago (2 children)

In other words, you wanted to say: "You're a complete dumbass and are not even able to describe yourself properly!"?

[–] chloe@lemmy.zip 2 points 5 hours ago

No.I am Chinese,I don't know how to articulate my viewpoint precisely.

[–] yakko@feddit.uk 1 points 5 hours ago

Chalk it up to cultural differences

[–] Golden@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

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. 

[–] kaulquappus@feddit.org 1 points 6 hours ago

Technically correct, the best kind of correct.

[–] gigastasio@sh.itjust.works 2 points 4 hours ago

I am a nondescript thing that moves through time and space without attracting attention.

[–] GreyShuck@feddit.uk 4 points 6 hours ago

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.

[–] Strider@lemmy.world 2 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Well adapted alien to this planet

[–] gAlienLifeform@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago

Well that's relatable

[–] FoolsQuartz@lemmynsfw.com 6 points 7 hours ago* (last edited 7 hours ago) (1 children)

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."

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

[–] RodgeGrabTheCat@sh.itjust.works 2 points 6 hours ago

Physically lazy with a mind that never stops thinking of solutions to problems that may one day exist.
