For me, it may be that the toilet paper roll needs to have the open end away from the wall. I don’t want to reach under the roll to take a piece! That’s ludicrous!
That or my recent addiction to correcting people when they use “less” when they should use “fewer”
A simple one I think, I refuse to call twitter by other names.
If it were supposed to be pronounced “jif” it would have been spelled that way, I don’t give two fucks what Stephen Wilhite said about it either.
Discord is not a good replacement for support forums. Discord isn’t searchable by search engines.
Historically, if I had an issue with a product and I googled “[product] [issue]” I’d be met with a support forum post, with someone describing the same issue. I could read the thread to find how they resolved it. I don’t actually have to interact with the post at all, and I don’t need to ask the same question again. For most (decent) forums I don’t even need to make an account just to read the post.
Discord throws that all out the window. Now I’m met with a “JoiN OUr dIScoRd SerVEr to GEt suPPorT” page. Nothing is searchable via a search engine. And Discord’s server searchability (even in the app) has always been, at best, absolute dogshit. You already need to know exactly which text thread things were posted in, (because you can’t search the entire server at once), and you need to know exactly what was said, (because there’s no fuzzed search terms).
So 99% of the time, you just end up asking the same question that has already been asked a hundred times in the past, and now you need to wait for someone to respond. It also puts a lot more strain on the support staff, because they’re answering the same question a hundred times instead of just the once in a forum.
And don’t come at me with the “but Discord recently added a support forum feature where people can start threads and save the conversation for later” bullshit. That’s a band-aid, at best. It still isn’t searchable via search engines, so it means the above issues with Discord’s search function still apply, and the forum function is essentially useless as support forums.
Lastly, why the fuck should I be forced to join another server just to get support? What if I don’t have a discord account? What if I live in a region that Discord doesn’t support? What if I just plain don’t want to clog up my server sidebar with dozens of servers that I have only visited once? What if I just really hate the fact that your server has been configured to push notifications for every single message by default? What if I just fucking want to google my issue, and get an answer without any further effort?
“white chocolate” doesn’t exist. It’s just sugar and a little bit of cocoa butter. It’s edible wax. It’s not chocolate and it doesn’t belong in any assortment of sweets, ever. Cocoa butter is skin moisturizer and that’s it.
It provably does exist. And it’s delicious. I could go to the supermarket and buy some right now. Except I’m fat and trying to lose weight.
It does exist in the way that chocolate ‘solids’ exist as an element of chocolate. A typical chocolate bar consists of both chocolate solids and cocoa butter. It’s still an element of what you’re eating,
So just cuz you eat ‘chocolate’ because you think you only favor the solids, you’re still eating the butter too in what makes chocolate. It’s like drinking milk products and then getting pedantic over people who use butter as a food even though milk contains some the same elements.
But again this is about stupid hills to die on. And you picked an intolerant and ignorant stance so I guess you technically win in this particular topic.
No need for personal attack, this is all in good fun.
TIL I like eating wax
Have you tried ruby chocolate yet? I’m guessing you won’t be impressed.
Ruby chocolate?
What is Ruby Chocolate? Everything You Need to Know
I’ve tried it a couple of times, but it’s a little hard to find.
I get it off Amazon. It’s so good as is.
It gets it’s name from it’s reddish-pink color.
@notnotmike@programming.dev, this one trigger you to?
Blocked.
I’m allergic to chocolate solids but can eat cocoa butter. So, in a society that is unreasonably obsessed with chocolate, it is nice that there is occasionally a “white chocolate” option on things that for some reason come in 15 flavors of chocolate and little else.
I’m fine with changing the name for it, but you sir can fuck right off if you want me to stop eating it instead of your “real” chocolate
Well, since you called me “sir” like a polite person, I shall retort. I don’t care if you eat it, this is about being pedantic! You can go and eat kale!
I try to be polite when cursing at others. It just makes for better online discourse imo
You have my sword.
And my bow.
And my axe!
Oh crap, I zoned out. What are we doing?
Hey, you. You’re finally awake.
Dunking on a dude that doesn’t think white chocolate is chocolate, hope that helps
The invocation is complete.
You have summoned a Reddit! Press X to restart
I would argue it’s actually congealed demon jizz but it’s definitely not fucking chocolate.
Thank you for being fun and not a terrible person.
I agree with your feeling for the most part. White chocolate is not chocolate and does not belong in chocolate assortments or in the lofty company of actual chocolate. It’s a byproduct of chocolate making more than a chocolate itself. That being said, candy and sweets that are made with cocoa butter can be nice. I’m just not going to eat it when I want chocolate.
The most delicious edible wax I’ve ever had.
i don’t record or watch vertical videos
The medical symbol of the staff with the snake is only supposed to have 1 (one) snake on it. A staff with 1 snake is the Rod of Asclepius (the son of Apollo and Greek demigod of medicine), a staff with 2 snakes is a Caduceus which is carried by Hermes as a messenger or herald.
Physicians get 1 snake. Couriers and heralds get 2 snakes. Any medical professional or organization that uses 2 snakes is wrong and needs to go study the humanities and classics for a bit.
its “I could not care less” and not “I could care less”. This one drives me nuts
It’s concrete, not cement. (Sidewalks for example, or foundations of buildings, etc)
Cement is an ingredient in concrete.
No ticket, no support.
Even if it is for batteries for your wireless keyboard and mouse. Ticket please.
I love telling whiny users who claim they’ve always had “this” problem that I cannot fix what I do not know is broken. If there’s no ticket, then nothing is broken, so quit your whining.
Don’t you just love when a user submits a ticket that’s “super urgent, this is preventing me from doing my job!” and when you ask how long it’s been happening: “Oh, about a month”
My personal favorite is the people that say it is a hair on fire emergency but then you can never get a hold of them to fix the problem.
Submits ticket at 4:50p that it’s an emergency. Ping them at 4:55p for clarification but they’re gone, get pinged at 8:02a with “why isn’t this fixed?”
That’s because nobody helped when their hair was on fire, and now they’re dead.
It wasn’t critical till now and they were hoping it’d fix itself before then. “But sir, these aren’t rechargeable batteries, nor do we have one of our interns go around and check all the batteries every day”
“I have to track the batteries as well as the time spent, and a ticket is the way to do that.”
Stupid KPI and accounts not knowing that consumables are not just food.
To streamers, YouTubers, etc. Your Patreon supporters are called Patrons. Not fucking “Patreons.”
Things happen by accident or on purpose. No one over the age of 3 should be using “on accident”.
Maybe people are just trying to annoy you by purpose.
Yeah, you purposely jam your toe when you didn’t see that thing…
Or you purposely fell when you trip over that thing…
🤦 They’re not saying accidents don’t happen…
Look at the bold words.
Lol, that’s what I get for responding without coffee. 🤣
You made a joke on accident.
The Oxford comma.
I think fewer of people when they misuse words. Their not that hard too tail a part.
YYYY/MM/DD
The reverse toilet paper thing is useful when you have pet that’s like to mess with it.
But either way is ok for me, I guess.
I mean, I couldn’t care fewer about it.
