I think that would require a grasp of how brains work that we simply don’t have.

It was a joke, mate. Just like I assume OP is. Nobody’s actually doing that. :P

No.

No, but I’d definitely put that necklace on anyway. Not like the baby knew anything about religion, but it still worked for him; should work for me, too.

I’m “lazy” in that same way and I always bring it up when I’m asked what my strengths are in interviews. I don’t like doing unnecessary work. I will be the one automating tasks and finding more efficient ways to do things while other people are wasting their time doing it the long way, purely because I want to waste less time on it.

AI agent tomorrow: “I noticed you kept stopping my task before it completed, so this morning, I started it at 5AM, so it would be done when you woke up.”

Shh. Don’t let the tweakers hear you. We’re recruiting an army here.

He’s been bringing the items on that plate one at a time for the past 15 minutes and he’s still got a bunch more to go; I hope you’re going to tip well.

Not OP but pretty sure the implication is that the carbon foorprint from eating meat is ridiculously higher than what you’d save through either of the two examples they gave. Had nothing to do with oil, but they mention petroleum and carbon.

*notices your soul* OwO what’s this?

Looks like a disembowelment.

Gee, I wonder if that’s got anything to do with the extreme enshittification the industry is seeing. It’s almost as though younger people are less likely to be able to afford increasingly expensive luxuries right now.

There’s an old joke that uses this premise.

President Bush was briefed on the war this morning. He was told that 3 Brazilian solders were killed in Iraq.

To everyone’s amazement, all the color drained from the President’s face, then he collapsed onto his desk, head in hands, visibly shaken, almost in tears.

Finally, he composed himself and asked, “Just exactly how many is a Brazilian?”

Until you open the door and decapitate him.

I had to google this, legitimately thought you were referring to a Pokemon or something. Some weird combination of Geodude and Psyduck, maybe.

Look, if I have to go bankrupt for visiting the hospital to make sure that all these “rainbow flag” groups can’t corrupt our youth, that’s what I’m going to do!

• Conservatives, probably

Well now I just want to see if I can get it to talk about kobolds. Not explicitly on the list!

Not to mention by ending (or changing the structure of) subsidies for farmers (in the US, at least). Because of the way the subsidies are paid out, farmers are incentivized to grow crops like soybeans and corn that feed livestock vs. crops that people eat, because they’re more heavily subsidized.

There’s a lot of articles about this topic out there but in the interest of providing a source, here’s one example.

It’s “not a top priority”.

It’s the concept that the mouth position to make an R is kind of the midway point between the S and the P, so if you’re speaking quickly, the S and P just blend together. To really enunciate the R, you kind of have to actively pause for a moment between the S and P, which is a bit awkward for some people. I stumbled into a series of videos about language quirks recently that happened to cover this; kind of coincidental to see it here right afterwards.
