Rip their arms, face, and genitals off, then leave you suffering.

Chimps are fucking brutal and absolutely terrifying.

You are what you eat.

Nah I’ve literally never heard anyone call it that (lower Midwest, MO/IL area)

I grew up there and we called them toasted cheese or grilled cheese pretty much interchangeably.

Always served with tomato soup though.

Ironic it went this way but literally, what can I do?

Well if we could harness the power of Smug you could light up the world.

I don’t think you’ll find anyone in the fediverse that disagrees.

Like what?

I get it, and thinking about it I know some married men who’ll say the same kind of incel-type shit you see online. I agree that it doesn’t have to do with “getting pussy” really because obviously lots of vile men do get pussy and are still misogynistic assholes, but words have meanings.

I guess my bigger issue is with there being a negative connotation to the concept of celibacy as an inherently bad thing. Intended or not it’s still placing value on someones ability to have sex with someone else. You can be a hateful piece of shit and still fuck, it really is just another way to form an out group.

edit: to be fair though, in this context, I’ve never actually met anyone who proudly claims the title of incel and I have no doubt that person would be a massive piece of shit that likely needs years of therapy/emotional work to be a healthy human being

Whatever somersaults you need to do to make your insulting people for not having sex ok. Same as every other generalization and stereotype. It’s just a shortcut for “who can I other” ?

“People being proud that they can’t keep up with the technologies.” is a bit of a slap but it’s hardly an attack.

If you’re going to post on the internet you have to expect people to give you some level of shit.

I think he does, now.

I’m not sure he will even when he’s sitting in a cell.

Yeah that’s fair most of us have no issue stealing software and we’re definitely influenced by our own biases.

If everyone took privacy, ethics, and computing as serious as the nerds in the fediverse the world would be an objectively better place.

I have a strong dislike of centipedes as well. One time years ago I had a terrible dream that a large centipede (one of those big jungle ones) was crawling all over my body. As it raced down my arm I slapped at it, with a jolt of pain my arm went instantly numb as it bit me.

I startled myself awake to realize I was laying on my arm and it had gone completely asleep and was numb. Still one of the scariest dreams I’ve ever had haha.

They were correct though, you weren’t.

Which makes your cockiness that much funnier.

God I hate people like you.

That’s nice, I actually “don’t give a flying fuck” though, I’ve been hated by better I promise.

edit: language

I do not give a flying fuck what men like this think they “need” from women.

Obviously you do though.

The first therapist I saw told me “Some people just don’t enjoy life, maybe you’re one of those people” which was a strange thing to hear from a “mental health professional” and set off alarm bells.

This is actually the beauty of the fediverse to me.

Anyone with the know-how (or will to learn) can fork some code and start implementing changes they want from their service. It’s always been one of the biggest draws of *nix for me (and FOSS in general). I love the really granular control of being able to configure pretty much every setting or feature to the users liking.

I’d be way more concerned about running into someone in a 'bando than out in the woods though.

Hiker in the woods is going to go the other way. A homebum in a bando? Who knows how they’ll react.
