As a dad who tries to connect with his kids, I made a 67 reference last week. Their response: “Oh Dad, 67 is old now.” Kids these days can’t even commit to the bit. 🤣

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•The whole "toilet seat up, toilet seat down" gender debate could be solved by everybody putting the seat and lid down.English
2·1 month agoIn my 20s, I worked in a place primarily staffed by women. As in it was just me and one other guy on the floor and we didn’t work the same shift. I intentionally left the seat up, waiting for a day to get spoken to about it. Somehow in my young mind, I thought I might be able to sue for discrimination. Yeah, I was kinda dumb. Nobody ever spoke to me, so I never had the opportunity to test that.
Currently, I try to put the seat down when I’m done, even though it’s one sitter and three standers in my home. My thought is that it doesn’t inconvenience me to put it down, so I do it.

13·1 month agoNot communism! I’m afraid of it threatening trade, free elections, and my individual freedoms.
Certainly unchecked capitalism will save us!

24·1 month agoYes, we are.
My trailer trash neighbor hates the new folks across the street because they’re from out of state. “This ain’t New York!” It’s not even racially motivated, everybody is white. I swear he purposely does annoying shit to bother them.
And before anyone judges me for calling them trailer trash, their Wi-Fi is “Trailer Trash.”
They appear to be assholes, but are actually soft and supportive?

362·2 months agoThey both can be true. We may have vast cultural differences, but we all want to live in an affordable, safe place and be paid what we’re worth while having the security of proper healthcare.
Mine has a weird crack down the middle.

77·2 months agoHe’s not part of the US Senate, he’s a part of the Maine Senate. Get your facts straight.
I find it funny that you decided to change the title after posting his position correctly in the Maine community.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•If you enjoy napping, you're basically time traveling to a future where you're less tired.English
2·2 months ago20-30 minute naps are ideal. When I lie down, I set an alarm for 35 minutes. It gives me 15 minutes to fall asleep and if I don’t fall asleep in that 15 minutes, then I realize it’s not happening and get up.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•The sheer audacity to call the planet we live on "blue marble" when Neptune out there looking like that.English
1·3 months agoI feel that the bigger audacity is the real name. Earth means soil, yet maybe 25% of the surface is soil.

Did you really have to show me this? Now I have a desire to buy (borrow?) one of these for a Halloween costume.
We should hold a vote to decide the spelling we can hold it next chewsday.



I’ve referenced it a few times in the past and they didn’t complain. Oh well.
