Damn, seeing you downvoted makes see how sadly opinionated Lemmy is.

Like if you live in a rural area, a firearm is a fantastic and common investment. In rural areas, emergency help is a while away or nonexistent. Animal Control isn’t gonna be there when your chickens are getting snatched by a raccoon or your pets are getting hunted by coyotes. Cops aren’t gonna show up in time if some methhead is bashing down your door.

Plus, with a firearm, you can hunt! Yay for the most ethically sound way of putting meat on your table!

Real, cows gotta learn!

What if the kiss is just kissing the homies goodnight?

Advanced cybernetics. From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh, it disgusted me. I craved the strength and certainty of steel.

It’s saddening to see the slow slow progress of cybernetics.

Yeah, I know the word, just I’ve only ever heard it used by smug assholes with “guess what I almost said” expressions on their faces.

Lugubrious - because it means the opposite of how it sounds!

It’s fun to say, but is defined as sadness, which the word can’t evoke

I don’t understand, why is that your word?

Gormless is one of my favorites too. Shame it’s not used as much as it should be in general.

Yeah, that word means uncle-like, but it’s very much a word for a fun or chill uncle vibe.

Don’t you slander uncledom like that, you unavuncluar tranch!

Dear God, *hio still exists, truly the worst timeline.

Horrid Vision Simulator is coming along nicely, it’s perfectly blurry

100%. People seem to be competing for some moral high ground constantly no matter where.

Gen Z, reading the thread I now understand why this platform has an allergy to edgey memes, sarcasm and shitposting not denoted with a /s.

I’m ootl here, what do you mean?

Wait till you hear about how your bank account gains interest, hooo boy

Sorry, jokes are not allowed on this instance. Please find a less serious one to make such frivolous comments, thank you

Reading the title, I would presume OP wants someone from one of those over 40 nations in Europe to say where tourists should avoid at all costs.

It does :D

Does the old copypasta work here?

I just downvoted your comment.

FAQ

What does this mean?

The amount of points on your comment has decreased by one.

Why did you do this?

There are several reasons I may deem a comment to be unworthy of positive or neutral votes.

These include, but are not limited to:

• ⁠Rudeness towards other Lemmerinos,

• A joke I personally disagreed with,

• ⁠Spreading incorrect information,

• Positively mention a website I dislike,

• ⁠Sarcasm not correctly flagged with a /s.

Am I banned from the The Instance?

No - not yet. But you should refrain from making comments like this in the future. Otherwise I will be forced to issue an additional downvote, which may put your commenting and posting privileges in jeopardy.

I don’t believe my comment deserved a downvote. Can you un-downvote it?

Sure, mistakes happen. But only in exceedingly rare circumstances will I undo a downvote. If you would like to issue an appeal, shoot me a private message explaining what I got wrong. I tend to respond to PMs within several minutes. Do note, however, that over 99.9% of downvote appeals are rejected, and yours is likely no exception.

How can I prevent this from happening in the future?

Accept the downvote and move on. But learn from this mistake: your behavior will not be tolerated on this Lemmy instance. I will continue to issue downvotes until you improve your conduct. Remember: Lemmy is privilege, not a right.

TikTok bad. Didn’t you know x website bad???
