Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !askusa@discuss.online

Omg I love trippy ambient electronic. PM me if you want. I have so many suggestions and would love to get some from you too.
That I run three home servers with over 25 services for work, home security, and website projects. No one cares about it but I really enjoy doing it :)
I once made a Naruto remix that got played at anime expo back in 2003/2004.
I can give up almost anything save for breathing, eating, and my dogs.
Save them for lunch later, smort
I'm trying to think of something I can actually do, but all I can think about are weird coincidences beyond my control:
My parents and my husband's parents were married on the same day in different parts of the country. His dad also shares my birthday.
My first child was born on the same day as a moderately famous comedian's first child. Later, when I looked that comedian up, I realised my second child was born on his 50th birthday.
I can guess the right socket/wrench I need from looking at the bolt 90% of the time
I'm pretty good at... just about everything. With some rare exceptions, just about every new thing I try, I pick up really quickly, and am pretty good at it. Ice skating, volleyball, stand-up comedy, acting, dancing, singing, gymnastics, hockey, rugby, capoeira, woodworking, drawing, painting, sculpture, chemist, surgery, gardening, swimming/diving... Just a whole bunch of random stuff that I've had the opportunity to try and... yeah, I'm pretty good at 'em.
I've often thought about being the subject of some sort of "Dirty Jobs with Mike Rowe" style show except they challenge me with new tasks/activities to see if they can find something I legitimately suck at.
