Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is your absolute favorite joke?English
11·15 days agoA guy and his wife went to marriage therapy…
Therapist: Your wife says you don’t pay attention to what’s going on in her life and you’re not romantic, for example, you never buy her flowers.
Husband: Gosh, I guess that’s true. I mean… I didn’t even know she sold flowers.

Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL that "horology" is a term for the study of timeEnglish
3·21 days agoThat’s worded poorly. I guess literally it translates as the “study of time” but physicists study the concept of time, and nobody would say they’re doing horology. If you read on it explains it’s the study of the measurement of time in general but horology has specifically come to refer to mechanical timekeeping devices. Watch and clockmakers are horologists, watch collectors may say they’re “into horology.”
It is like horoscope in that “horo” refers to time. Horoscopes are the “study” of the time of a person’s birth and how that affects their life or whatever.

Update: I found a family of them. The first one was behind the building I work at on one side. I was on the other side today and found these.

One problem with Christian morals is that God was immoral in the Bible. He told the Hebrews to attack people and commit genocide. He told them to kill every man woman and child. He specified that infants and sucklings were to be killed. When David sinned, he punished him by killing his son and having ten of his wives raped in public, he sends bears to attack children, he almost makes Ezekiel eat bread cooked with human shit, but is persuaded to allow cow shit instead.
So you read “You shall not kill” and think that’s a pretty good moral, but then you read God saying he is going to kill everybody and have pregnant women ripped open and their babies dashed against rocks. There’s not many ways to reconcile that except to say he’s God, he can do whatever he wants.
That opens up the idea that, if you’re doing what god wants, you can probably get away with a lot of shit too. If you steal from this elderly person, you’ll put the money to good use, so god would want that. If you lie and cheat, well, you’re on mission from God and you gotta break eggs to make an omelette.
Morals are flexible to God, so if you get your morals from God they’re flexible for you too. And if not, it’s ok, you just get forgiven anyway.

5·2 months agoI’m convinced that the Mandela effect is just self gaslighting. I don’t have any strong memories about any of these things, so when someone shows me one I think it’s right, then I have a hard time believing it’s not right. If I was shown the correct one first the Mandela effect wouldn’t exist for me.
I’m not sure but whenever I need a pen I go to penisland.net, they might have some small ones

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Do you feel a kinship with people who drive the same make/model car as you?English
51·2 months agoI drive a Jeep and don’t feel a kinship with Jeepers. I used to. Mine is a 2001 and in those days I could drive across town and see 1-2 other Jeeps. We’d wave, and if we stopped at a red light next to each other, there’s a good chance we’d talk and possibly invite each other to go offroad or even just stop and have a beer or something. Most Jeepers knew their Jeep inside and out and had built, modified, installed and worked on every inch of them.
Nowadays, it’s weird. There’s 3-4 Jeeps at every red light, so why wave? A lot of Jeeps are superhero or cartoon themed which is the dumbest most childish shit to me. There’s orange Nero jeeps and blue Dory jeeps, green Shrek jeeps, and they’re all covered in so many damn LED lights they could signal Jupiter. I’ve never got into the duck thing either.
That’s enough of an old man rant. I won’t get into how I’ve seen Jeep events cancelled due to light sprinkles, how Jeep “offroad shops” mostly just sell LED lights and Jeep branded clothes now, or that time a trail leader interrupted me giving excellent advice to a Jeep experiencing brake fade coming down a mountain, to recommend taking the Jeep to the dealer.
