Oh man, urban dictionary is still going? I haven't seen them in forever....

If that's how they meant it... I mean, it's pretty spot on.

I'll take it as a compliment, then!

I personally believe it is on purpose, to try and get you to download the app.

Then they can get way more of your data to sell.

"hmm, I'm bored. Oh look here's some people enjoying a small laugh. Imma shit on the fun. How DARE they enjoy a joke I personally don't like. The FOOLS! THE ABSOLUTE MORONS! I simply MUST tell people their frivolity is absurd."

My gender-non-specific human, why do you insist on calling every single person here shitty for calling out BS reddit tactics?

Are you in love with their CEO or something? It's a little weird.

I got banned from about 15 subreddits I never even knew existed once by calling out a transphobic dogwhistle, and when I inquired about the bans, the mods insinuated I was a child molester and neo-nazi.

Reddit mods don't need to follow any sort of logic.

And confidently asserting someone is a dick because they got banned from a subreddit is hilarious, and should probably prompt some self-reflection.

I have told managers, to their faces, I do not have a smart phone... While holding my smart phone.

So far, while most have quite noticeably glanced at my phone, none have actually called me out on it.

If any of them ever do, I will just get a prepaid flip phone and use that for work.

It's curtains for me.

I guess I'd better frame my next comment differently!

I meant widow, sorry for not being clear.

Most people I know didn't even know Kirk was married until his ~~assassination planner~~ window* started making the news screeching about how much of a saint he was.

This post was good enough to kick me off my phone for the night. I just woke up after about 3 hours and only meant to pull my phone out to turn the audiobook back on, and instead started scrolling.

So thanks for the reminder I should be sleeping!

Well, it'll be taught, just not as official curriculum.

I learned about a man from Nantucket at school.

And the United States government, whose nuclear launch systems for decades had a default "0000000" password on systems so old they figured nobody would know how to hack them in person anymore, and they're incompatible with the internet.

It's disturbing to me that my high school hobby of fixing and operating old computers meant I could have launched nukes.
