I'm sorry to hear that, but yeah, heroin is one hell of a drug ^/s

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

One of the very few I’ve never tried! Absolutely how I plan to go out, if I learn I’m terminal.

Be the change you want to see in the world.

I am, much to my wife's dismay.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I've been here the whole time.

I also really like rad.

(That one doesn’t work with the -o unfortunately)

I feel like every time I hear "neat" it's meant semi-sarcastically. Like, okay, I guess that's kind of interesting, but it's not really relevant or I don't know how to continue the conversation.

"So, not that it relates to anything we're talking about, but I'm a world champion in this one very niche thing that you've never heard of."

"...neat."

It’s VERY mild approval. Like a step above OK. I’m acknowledging the existence of the thing and maybe nodding my head or giving a thumbs up, but I’m forgetting it immediately as soon as it leaves my field of view.

That’s how I use it most of the time. That and “nifty”

Awesome! It’s totally radical and all the PHAT people know how to be hip. You better be there or be square dig it?

I just started saying rad recently. I'm almost 40 though so... yeah.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

Been doing it for years myself, currently advocating for “def”

Will anyone pick it up? No. Do I care? Nah.

It's a plant in the genus Mentha, typically aromatic. But that's not important right now.
