This is me whenever I plan on a staycation…and it turns into my mom(bc who can afford to move out???) Finding shiz I need to do and I just can’t seem to rest bc gotta be productive 🫠

MxM111 , to memes in Based on a true story

Staycation is my favorite vacation. Especially since my house has a pool.

Every time I go on vacation I always think that I'd be having a better time at home, mostly because it would be so much cheaper.

Is this some sort of European joke that I’m too American to understand?

niels ,

Milo is actually Australian funnily enough. It’s like a powdered chocolate thing similar to nesquik, but I don’t think it actually contains any chocolate.

adj16 ,

Ah gotcha. Drinking chocolate is also an unfamiliar term to me, though I’m fairly certain I can guess what it means in American English: hot chocolate

niels ,

I’ve never heard of drinking chocolate either, and I’m only now realising that it’s a noun instead of a verb in the meme. I only happen to know about Milo because I’ve got family living in Australia.

Seems like it’s a particular brand of powdered hot chocolate from Cadbury

Hmm, interesting, I grew up on it back in Jamaica… never considered where it came from lol

kerrypacker ,

It’s malt flavoured.

@Album@lemmy.ca avatar

I Wikipedia’ed it cuz malt by its self can’t taste like chocolate.

Standard Milo consists of four main ingredients: malted barley, milk powder, sugar and cocoa.[

When I first read this, I assumed that Milo was the name of the dog because my brain could not comprehend how anyone could come up with such insane logic

Cats just meow to get our attention. Fun fact do you know that meowing is them mimicking the sounds of a baby?

Human: “Hello mister mittens! Kiss kiss kiss!”

Cat: “Coochie coo, idiot human, don’t forget to feed me.”

They’re baby talking right back at us.

Stuka ,

No its not. You were mislead.

venoft ,
@venoft@lemmy.world avatar

Not a human baby (how could they, most cats have never seen a human baby), but as a kitten they meow to their parents to get food etc. So we’re their parents now and I guess they never really grew up and became independent.

joel_feila ,
@joel_feila@lemmy.world avatar

Well adult cats raised around humans figure out what meows work the best and that is one that sounds like baby

dragonflyteaparty ,

Cats meow in the same register that human babies cry. They aren’t saying that cats are specifically trying to cry like a human baby, but that cats as a species have grown over thousands of years to meow in the same pitches as human babies.

Katana314 ,

While I’m still not sure if this is true, there was a very interesting clip I saw to support the evidence, where a tiger enclosure was somehow across the street from a farm’s cow enclosure. The tigers had started “mooing” along their edge of the fence in an effort to make the juicy, meat-filled cows feel safe around them.

I've also heard that cats try to mimic birds. It's one of the theories behind that weird clacking noise they make when they see prey that's out of reach.

I was tuna shamed in school because that’s the only sandwich my mother ever put in my lunchbox.

Dr_Fetus_Jackson , (edited ) to memes in alone, but sex-positive about it

My wife and I have been married for nearly 30 years and we’re just now learning to be our best slutty selves.

We’ve been going places to meet others and learning about their lives while sharing ours. The best opportunities usually are at the places where clothing is optional or outright banned. It’s amazing how people open up and talk about all the things when the last physical vestige of hiding is removed.

Some would point and laugh, but we’re not the ones that are lonely. Once you come to the point of reality that all of this ends, it’s easier to let go of the bullshit and just live.

Get out there!

WhatsHerBucket ,
@WhatsHerBucket@lemmy.world avatar

I’m in the same boat! My kid is in his 20s and on his own, wife and I are like, “Oh yeah, this is why we got married. Remember when we used to…?” :)

Dr_Fetus_Jackson ,

Congrats! That’s awesome!

We were raised in a pretty strict environment and, unfortunately, didn’t get much of an opportunity to experience many things during our youth out of fear and shame. Once we moved away from that horrid place and our children became adults, we were able to relax and focus on us and the things we were curious about. That liberation has given us a whole new opportunity to find exhilaration on our terms.

I don’t see us looking back any time soon.

So strong, being unashamed to proclaim your belief in the dominant religion in the country. So brave.

I wonder if they’d be so willing to advertise this if they were, for instance, in the middle east.

skulblaka ,
@skulblaka@kbin.social avatar

If they were in the middle east they would be Muslim. These people did not choose Christianity from a multiple choice option. They were led down a path. If they lived in a different area they would have been led down a different path and the end result would remain the same, just with a different name.

seathru ,

What if they are in the middle east on vacation?

Sheeple ,
@Sheeple@lemmy.world avatar

They’d try to preach the christian “word” and then promptly die. Or they’d leave racist social media posts

Speculater ,
@Speculater@lemmy.world avatar

The politically, religiously, economically, and socially dominate people love to act like they’re being persecuted. Fucking idiots every single conservative Christian. I’m going up go further since I’m half a beer in, all Christians in the West.

shiveyarbles , to memes in Shame 🔔

What that really means is “I should be ashamed to believe this ridiculous book of fairy tales, but I’m weak minded.”

Simulation6 , to memes in Shame 🔔

It’s like they are saying ‘I know I should feel ashamed for believing in this silliness, but I don’t’.

StenSaksTapir ,

I’m pretty sure it’s a reference to molesting kids.

“Yeah I know what the church did and it doesn’t bother me in the least. If those kids didn’t want to be molested, they shouldn’t have been near priests.”

OP doesn’t know what the word “jargon” means.

FuglyDuck ,
@FuglyDuck@lemmy.world avatar

Or they’ve only heard jargon from outside their expertise.

Hackerman_uwu ,

I mean. Is the word “jargon” jargon for people who are into linguistics?

ASeriesOfPoorChoices ,

No

esadatari ,

and also yes

Facelikeapotato OP ,
@Facelikeapotato@lemmy.ml avatar

Yeah, nonsense would’ve been a better word. Or word salad, it doesn’t get said enough.

TheDoozer ,

I think you were looking for “gibberish.”

Bebo ,

Exactly what I was thinking. “jargon” to be replaced by gibberish.

glibg10b ,

I had this exact same thought. I think “jargon” in the original post should be “gibberish”.

ledtasso ,

I had precisely the same idea. I suppose “jargon” should have been “gibberish.”

jscummy ,

Not sure if that’s right. To me, it seems like OP meant to say “gibberish” instead of “jargon”
