I read that as cheese dynasty and I got so confused.

Breve ,

I’ve just had this Chinese dynasty, it is fucking minging! Suck your dad!

XIA DYNASTY

It meant you prefer war and conquest over peace, prosperity, and stability. The correct answer was the Song Dynasty.

Source: I have never studied Chinese history and made this up, so just take my word for it.

I’m glad my attention fatigued brain spared another few seconds to read the second half.

He is not very good at MINGling.

The correct answer was “Don’t care, wanna fuck?”.

Most likely because it is the one every one knows.

Got to hit her with the more obscure ones, that shows you know history.

Most likely because it is the one every one knows.

Its the one that the expensive vases are most commonly associated with. But that was also something of an apex of art and culture, so its a natural choice.

You’re not picking the Qing Dynasty, on account of the “Century of Humiliation” ending in Japanese collaboration and a dismal final period. The Liao, Tang, and Song are the only recent dynasties of appreciable length. Get much further behind that and its barely China anymore, just coalitions of city states and warring tribes. The Romance of the Three Kingdoms Era is cool, but not what I’d call “Peak China”.

Ming is as good a pick as any of them.

Got to hit her with the more obscure ones

Oh hi, yes. I’m a big fan of the Later Han Period, which lasted a whooping four years. Also, my favorite President is Gerald Ford.

If you want to go edge lord, just say you’re a huge fan of the Taiping Rebellion. She’ll hate you forever, but she might respect you a bit more.

I mean, I’m partial to the Tang dynasty in part due to Wu Zeitan. Her history and time as empress are absolutely fascinating and the relative prosperity of her reign is really impressive.

DarkCloud ,

But I like the Qing specifically because I like studying empires when they decline and “end”.

It’s a rollercoaster ride. But sort of like saying “I’m fascinated by WW2-era Europe”. Raises some red flags.

pyre ,

oh you like the ming dynasty? name all their wars.

Daxtron2 ,

Anon plays the OP countries in EU4 which is why she’s upset

You gotta keep the ball rolling annon!

Num10ck ,

maybe she was checking if you were into Wu Tang… China’s only female ruler: Empress Wu of the Tang dynasty reigned for 20 years.

bricklove ,

I the like the Han dynasty because it was run by a sole smuggler

LordGimp ,

Like the fish or some sort of shoe racket?

visc ,

I think autocorrect broke your joke.

erusuoyera ,

She’s not disappointed with the answer, she’s disappointed anon didn’t ask her back.

I fail this every single time. I always assume if somebody had something to say, they would’ve just said it. I mean, we’re already having a conversation about certain topic. Why wait for me to ask?

sploosh ,

Because it is more fun and engaging to be asked.

Comment105 ,

Why would you want to know what a woman thinks?

Tarball ,

Hit her with the facts - the Chinese invented fake orange juice in the Tang dynasty and so that’s your fave.

drolex ,

Not bad, but the Song dynasty invented the musical speech. That’s something

Zozano ,
@Zozano@lemy.lol avatar

Get a load of this guy. Thinks the Wing dynasty who invented fried chicken wasn’t the best.

bhamlin ,

All chumps. The Ping dynasty invented the internet.

Honytawk ,

Well, you were all using jokes from the Zing dynasty, so that is the clear winner

Don’t forget the Bong dynasty where everyone was high as fuck.

olafurp ,

Bong dynasty invented the gravity bong for cultural reasons

Shit, this just reminded me of one of my favorite text posts and I can’t locate it because search engines are a wasteland of paid results and spam. any chance someone has it? Description below

The story’s narrator is walking along when they bump into a stranger. The stranger immediately begins yelling about how [linux distro] is subpar for its intended use case and the narrator calmly replies that the distro excels in specific ways. However, the stranger isn’t having any of it. The story ends without resolution, with the narrator looking for solace in others’ opinions.

search engines are a wasteland of paid results and spam

Last night I spent 45mins searching for something that I had found in the top 3 results 8 months ago. It was buried on the 3rd page. None of the other results had anything to do with what I was actually searching for.

LMNjuice ,

Try typing before:2024 at the start of the search term, it should filter things from 2024 our, and you might find it. Works the same with any other year

Hmmmmm nice one! Thanks for that!

Contramuffin ,

I feel like I’ve read that before, but it wasn’t about linux. Must be a copypasta at this point

Contramuffin ,

I just stumbled across one. Hopefully having the actual wording will help you pin down the specific variation that you’re looking for

Gullible ,

I searched for a bit, hoping for a knowyourmeme page or some such. No dice, but there were several related copypastas to fill the hole. Thank you!

ShinkanTrain ,

The correct answer is “Qin. Love playing him in Civ 6”. You could say Ming but she has to know that they added Yongle as DLC
