    I really hate it when corporate Twitter accounts try to be quirky. Wendy’s trolling McDonald’s was funny for a bit but even that got old and I blame it for making this sort of thing common.

    So… my phone was out of battery, so I pulled out my power bank and connected the cable to my phone, but then I was feeling like I’m connecting two parts of an explosive device, I instinctively said, loudly:

    “BOMB PLANTED”

    Now the entire plane is staring at me like I’m some sort of criminal.

      No wonder airport guards started to break into the toilet after I gave birth to a fist-wide log screaming the same in a sudden mix of terror and glee.

    Parody account

    …Basically indistinguishable from any regular Twitter account. Why did Elon want these accounts labeled, again?

    I can almost see the grey face of the marketing intern shuffling out of another pointless meeting to write this, debating whether their health insurance would cover jumping out of the building window.

      They tried to say this wouldn’t work, but Bob the PM thinks its great and has ordered you to put it through. His only concession to your warning was “well, add an ‘lol’ or something to make it sound gamery”.

    No. But I do sing the victory fanfare tune from final fantasy every time I do some small thing. Wash dishes? Victory! Laundry? Victory! Cook dinner? Victory! Take a shit? Victory!

    • This is awesome. I still remember that tune from when I played it. Funny how some people think positivity and imagination aren’t excellent things. You keep doing you! And I’m definitely going to be copying your idea!

      Oh. Oh I’m not the only one. I’m not even an avid FF player; I just played some of the remakes on DS.

      The victory tune is burned into my brain, as well as the Chocobo theme.

        I’m curious as to why you think it’s “lame as fuck”. Does it harm you? Does it harm them? Does it fucking harm anybody? Does it just seem like a quickly little weird thing that you don’t do but others might? The answer to one of those questions is, “Yes”.

          It has nothing to do with harming anyone lol it’s just my opinion. I’m allowed to have that. I think doing that is lame as fuck.

          What I think is hilarious is people going out of their way to say some pretty brutal shit to me over one of the lightest insults ever. People love talking about how lemmys do great but I swear it’s no different than browsing 4chan sometimes hahahaha.

          I’m not worried about it as this is the internet and I can take if I’ve just genuinely never been told some of the shit these people felt the need to call me for calling someone lame lol. Fuckin wiiiiild

            You’re allowed to have your opinion, but you are not protected from the consequences of your speech. That’s literally how free speech works. It’s just a dick move to come in for no reason whatsoever and rain on somebody’s parade. Like you read that comment and decided that you HAD to insult them. It’s free to not be an asshole. If people are saying absolutely brutal shit to you over your comment, then they are also being assholes.

    TFW someone posts “don’t be evil” on a thing with the author credit scribbled out.

    Screenshot of Twitter. Tweet by @GooglePlay made on March 13th, 2024 reads "Gaming really changes your life lol anyone else out here yelling +10 HEALTH when they finish dinner?" A reply tweet by user @RickAstleyGamin (which was scribbled out in the screenshot OP posted) simply reads "no".

    For a proper plate of pasta you should at least get +40. If you cooked it yourself maybe even +1 skill point. If you fed someone, “you are now friends”.
