You can say fuck on the Internet.

[–] wuffah@lemmy.world 28 points 1 month ago (1 children)

The modern internet: where “fuck” is censored, but fucking your grandma is not.

Same as it ever was.

[–] Vengefu1Tuna@lemmy.zip 14 points 1 month ago

My virgin eyes! How could you

[–] db2@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It's a form of engagement bait. Downvote and block.

[–] OpenStars@piefed.social 6 points 1 month ago

For just a moment I thought this was in reference to grandma...

[–] hitmyspot@aussie.zone 6 points 1 month ago

Not if grandma might see it.

[–] stupidcasey@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

Not when talking about your own grandma you can't.

[–] speckofrust@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 month ago

I greatly prefer reading that to “boutta.”

[–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 month ago

Jesus Christ, you can't say that here

[–] D_C@sh.itjust.works 36 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Downvoted for the shitty censorship.

[–] Sculptor9157@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago (3 children)

That's how Drew posted it!

[–] FenrirIII@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Drew can't kiss Sita with a potty mouth

[–] mrgoosmoos@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 month ago

yeah we don't care. still don't want to see it.

[–] D_C@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago

Then op should not have re-posted it.

We now live in a world of unnecessary censorship and redactions, and I disagree with it.

Yeah, what's with boomers and the need to add an emoji at the end if each message?

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 32 points 1 month ago (1 children)
[–] entropicdrift@lemmy.sdf.org 0 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

Singular and plural are the same because it's a Japanese loanword. All nouns in Japanese can be used this way, to my knowledge.

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Nope, it's Latin. The original emojus was the dong, and could be found scrawled on every wall in Rome.

[–] big_slap@lemmy.world 31 points 1 month ago (1 children)

wait, that's boomer shit? 😟

[–] kurwa@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

😎 yeah you gotta add it to the beginning!

[–] OpenStars@piefed.social 3 points 1 month ago

🤔😁😉😝

[–] ComradeRachel@lemmy.blahaj.zone 16 points 1 month ago (3 children)

The same with millennials adding lol to the end of every sentence. Which is me I do that lol.

[–] DahGangalang@infosec.pub 9 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I don't know what you mean lol

[–] mrgoosmoos@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 month ago

lol right

usually I'm good with it but sometimes it just seems the most appropriate, like now lol

[–] D_C@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

My mate is technically a boomer and he puts lol and emojis at the end of his messages.

My sister is nearly a boomer yet will not use lol or emojis. However she ends every sentence with at least two x's. That's every sentence!

I still don't know which is worse.

Edit: I just remembered. My mate texted me once to tell me his brother just got diagnosed with arse cancer and ended the text with a few prayer emojis, an upside down head emoji, with a lol in-between.

[–] MrScottyTay@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago

I've not used lol properly since we stopped using T9 keypad phones

[–] timsjel@piefed.world 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

To real, am boomer-ish and I dont know why but there's like an itch within and I fucking can not not do that shit. Im broken for sure 😢

[–] Sculptor9157@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Maybe it's the psychology of inferring tone from text, and not wanting to be misunderstood in a faster-paced communications medium. A shortcut to ensure the message is received with the proper intent when the engagement time has fallen drastically?

[–] SpongyAneurysm@feddit.org 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Then why are people using this bugger everywhere: 😂

Like theyre actually laughing to tears when they see something remotely funny. I don't buy it

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

It's boomer for lol and rofl

[–] Zorque@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Yeah, they should emote instead >:(

[–] pruwybn@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)
[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

That's Gen X

[–] DahGangalang@infosec.pub 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Hard agree on this one (´・ω・`)

[–] yakko@feddit.uk 5 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

I don't mind that as much as the boomer thing of adding ellipses at the end of every text. Especially extra strength ellipses........ Horrid writing style

Edit: I wrote an 8-dot ellipses and Lemmy truncated it to three. I just love that.

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Oh man, I had a boss who did that. Everything else about him was amazing, but those fucking ellipses drove me up the wall.

[–] yakko@feddit.uk 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Holy shit, you worked for Scott too?

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Mine was Rob

[–] funkajunk@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

Who says you ain't?

[–] ThatWeirdGuy1001@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

STOP FUCKING POSTING CENSORED SHIT

[–] zanyllama52@infosec.pub 1 points 1 month ago

Downvote this self-censorship fuckery into oblivion.
