Just say no. The cashier doesn’t need your snark.

You’re telling me, that the text you wrote for the title was just an imaginary conversation that happened in your head? It’s not real?!

Track_Shovel OP ,

This life is not real. We are each a flit of an image in an Eldritch God’s dream. Life is meaningless. There is a reason that our central nervous system looks like a jellyfish-type thing. It is because we are truly made in our slumbering god’s image and our bodies are only vessels to hide this image from other, awake gods. The god only knows slumber. And memes.

That’s fine, but in real life, save the smart ass comments for memes.

ikiru ,

So, then, exactly what happened?

Cephirux ,

But what makes a meme, a meme? Or funny in this case. Most if not all good memes have to be relatable, so your meme is kinda related to real life. I mean, for some people, your meme is relatable in their life.

RaivoKulli ,

It’s relatable in the sense that many would like to say that but don’t

Cephirux ,

So many would like to say no when asked for donations but didn’t for whatever reason? Hard to argue on this one since it’s subjective, but personally, I surely wouldn’t find it difficult to say ‘no thanks’.

the bow and arrow is just a logical extension of mankind's desire to poke each other at ever longer range.

Went to the grocery store earlier today, can confirm!

Omega_Haxors , to memes in same great taste!

Inflation was caused by one major grocer just randomly deciding to increase food prices because they knew they could get away with it.

When that’s the take even economists are walking away with, you know it’s egregious. And OFC our governments did jack fucking shit.

Source? I don’t disbelieve you necessarily but I’d love to read more

Omega_Haxors ,

They call it greedflation.

wholeofthemoon ,

Go and check what the money printers are doing and then decide if you think one major grocer is causing inflation. Maybe they impacted it but it wasn’t caused by them.

Inflation is a feature, not a bug.

Omega_Haxors ,

Money printing = inflation is an outdated economic model. It’s all about value created vs purchasing power.

You can brr the printers all night but none of that’s going to make a difference if it’s all sitting harmlessly in a swiss bank account.

Acters ,

I personally think wealthy billionaires love inflation because more people go into debt and they get more money

Kusimulkku ,

Inflation all over the world was caused by one major grocer? Wild

tdawg , to memes in same great taste!

This is probably a bit circle jerky, but I remember when my mom would buy groceries for an entire month and was devastated that it cost $100 (for a family of 4). We lived in a small town in the middle of nowhere but it’s still crazy to imagine getting that much out of that little these days

merc , to memes in Perspective

Leaving aside the quality of Rock Band vs. Fortnite, there are some other key differences:

  1. Playing with your friends in the same room. With Fortnite I think that’s possible on consoles, but it isn’t how people tend to play. If you’re not playing games with friends in the same room (at least sometimes) you’re missing out.
  2. A variety of games. Almost nobody exclusively played Guitar Hero, or Rock Band. They were just one of many games people played. For some reason, kids these days seem to be hyper-focused on one game. First it was Minecraft, next it was Fortnite. My nephew switched to League of Legends next, and again, it’s all he plays. I can understand getting hyper-focused an MMO, because they try to pile in all kinds of content: quests, raids, dungeons, professions, seasonal events, exploration, PvP, PvE, etc. But, Fortnite and LoL lack a lot of those features.

The one criticism I’d say you can’t make about fortnite is a lack of content, every season they add a completely new gameplay feature then remove it next season, right as it gets stale. There was a season where you could just be Spider-Man and web swing around, a season where there were planes and dogfighting, a season where you could get the infinity gauntlet and be thanos. Plus some others but I don’t play the game so I only hear about it second hand.

merc ,

If that’s once a season, should that really keep someone interested for months on end? Playing like spider man sounds fun, but is it really going to take you multiple weeks to exhaust all that has to offer?

Like MMOs release content every season or so, but that’s some new quests, dungeons and raids on top of all the existing quests, dungeons and raids, and also on top of all the exploration, crafting, achievement hunting, mastering multiple classes, etc.

c0mbatbag3l ,
@c0mbatbag3l@lemmy.world avatar

Each season in Fortnight they update the weapons and items in the game, so when they say you can play like Spiderman they mean you can get a gauntlet that lets you swing around. There’s other stuff too to counteract and balance the game out.

It creates emergent gameplay though, you combine the new map with new weapons and special items that change the baseline strategy, and it creates really unique gameplay which doesn’t get stale for weeks, for me at least.
