I really hope to NOT see stupid comments involving lying about spitting out your drink, or it comes out of your nose because a comment was funny or shocking. “Thanks, I snorted and spit out my coffee.” Actually, no, you fucking didn’t. Stop lying about something so stupid just so you can get upvotes for making a cliche, un-funny, weak ass, bottom rung comment.

I’m sorry. I know I sound ridiculously annoyed by something so stupid…but that’s because I am (annoyed and stupid).

Thanks for coming to my TedTalk.

Thanks, now I have to explain to my wife why I woke her up by laughing so hard. (She's super hot btw).

[–] WarmSoda@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

You should go to the doctors. She probably has a fever.

Yo, hold on, your wife is a girl? What's it like to talk to... those?

[–] denast@lemmy.world 18 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Pretty sure these will arrive shortly after Lemmy gains any noticeable popularity. Also, fake coolstory posts for subs like AITA are coming too, people love some drama, even if it's fake

i actually did laugh in such a way that i sprayed sprite out of my nose once as teenager. it was horrible. so, it can and does happen. but whether it actually happens or not, such comments seldom contribute in any way to a discussion.

I'm literally, actually crying right now.

[–] Mdotaut801@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

What happened? Are you ok? Please don’t cry bb :(

[–] datavoid@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Thanks, made me exhale through my nose

I mean, you could say it's equally ridiculous for you to say without a shadow of a doubt, that it didn't happen

[–] AdminWorker@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 year ago

I'm curious. Why do you say "this" when an upvote is the same?

[–] WarmSoda@lemm.ee 4 points 1 year ago

No. Not here. BAD.
