You get an updoot! And YOU get an updoot!

Michael Ironside in his younger days. I would have loved to see him as a Trek captain in the style of his Starship Troopers character, ie a grizzled, take-no-prisoners leader, but would do anything for his people. Sort of a Lorca kind of captain, but Michael Ironside.

 

He had no time for any of my nonsense, and blanked any of the catty attract noises I tried to entice him with.

I think there might be some sarcasm going on there given the tone of the post, and the fact the upshot of it was to propose a vote on whethe the rules should be changed post-reopening to only permit pictures of "John Oliver looking sexy".

No, Roy, we don't.

Your recommendation does God's work. I was not aware of this, and shall be installing it forthwith.

The last time we tried to get the internet to seriously decide on something we got Boaty McBoatface.

And lo, the Internet looked down upon it's handiwork, and verily, t'was awesome.

All posts in these (business) subs can be advertisements, perfect.

And nobody will ever go there. And, two years down the track, u/spaz will hoik up the pricing or cut them off entirely because they're making money off of a non-profitable Reddit. "We want to work with the business subs but they're not interested in talking to us and have all thrown their toys out of the pram and shut down".

 

As title.

I did piss in the ice. Naturally.

 

No, I don't know what this was about either.

Well done you. Take my updoot (do we call them updoots on here?).

It's also quite pertinent given the prevalence of feddit.(country code) instances of Lemmy, eg feddit.uk, feddit.de etc.

By the power of editing clarification I shall smight thee in twain.

But for the record this is all cracking fun.

"alright geez, giz a skone"

"Good evening my good man. My name is Lord Ponsonby Smythe Smythe Smythe. Could I trouble you for one of those skons?"

Works both ways.

Edit: my friend, who I am currently drinking pints with, says "skon is more northern but posh and scone is more estuary".

And he's an expert and a cunt (his own description of himself).

But I am common as muck. I haven't met an H I haven't dropped and I'm proper Bermondsey and Millwall. And it's a "skone". In fact the only people who call it a "skon" in my experience in deepest darkest Saaaaaaaf Laaaaaaandaaan are posh cnuts.

Spock has a cat. Your argument is invalid.

 

Uno always chooses the pot slightly too small for her ample bulk.

 

Hi all. Have tried on a few different devices, but I am struggling to sign up to lemmy.world. (My current instance is a bit hit and miss with pulling in non-local posts), and the talk around the communities is that lemmy.world seems to be the most stable instance.

I fill in the sign up form, hit the button and get the swirly progress spinner for ever. If I look in the browser developer console, I see a "websocket closed" error (although it does then follow up with "websocket reconnected").

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Just one human finger to turn the "awww" into "OWWWW!"
