devilstrip

Wild! So devilstrip is what people from Akron call the grass between the road and the sidewalk.

Given my username, I was naturally very surprised as I read through your example. (Totally agree btw, but that would make too much sense)

For me personally, I’ve been able to “learn” to respond with a few generic answers but that still doesn’t change the over analysis after the fact.

Did I seem genuine enough? I wish I could tell them how I really feel. Why bother responding if it’s a lie? I hate lying. Etc.

So yeah outwardly I appear to be good at small talk. (Heck I even worked sales for a few years) but internally it’s draining.

I’ve always assumed it was due to the size of Reddit. I don’t care about anime at all but because lots of other people do it reaches the front page. This is why I became very liberal with the block button to tailor the feed.

I love the knob but hate that in 2021 they ‘upgraded’ the auto start to being in an app.

Looks like it.

Yeah, before I looked up the translation I figured it was "whore's son" which is close enough.

Still haven't seen a "join lemmy" but gotta love "Digg 4 Lyfe"

Edit: It actually says DGG 4 LYFE.

You missed the best part, in the German Flag, they've written "u/spez ist ein Hurensohn!"

Translation: u/spez is a son of a whore/bitch (Google says bitch, commenters are saying whore.)

I just spent the weekend in Saugutuck (near Holland) and the AQI was less than 10! We’ve been going for a few years now so I’m biased. We stay in the town and then to get to the beach there’s a ferry for $3 and a 20 minute hike through a forested area.

Driving from Ohio to Michigan: Welcome to Michigan, BUY WEED!

I think you’re on to something here. I play all kinds of games with friends, and DOTA was the only one where I’d actively get shit on for my lack of skill. And that’s from real life friends too.
