Alternatively, let the leaves lie - which is beneficial to insects as well. And lets your neighbours enjoy life :)

But a suggestion from the post you're replying to is using an electric one.

Vincent ,

Check the full channel if you liked it, it's great.

Vincent ,

Especially if it's a Tom Cardy song that I somehow hadn't seen yet. Wouldn't have wanted to miss it - sharing the real party guest stereotype.

Vincent ,

I did know that one, but thanks anyway, I wouldn't have wanted to miss if it I hadn't.

(I like the versions featuring himself more though.)

Vincent ,

I knew the song, but reading the YT comments it looks like there's some recent lore I wasn't aware of.

Vincent ,

It's a good thing we're no longer this narrow-minded, right? Right?

Vincent ,

Less time bad screen, more time good screen.

Vincent ,

Make a rule that one of you has to propose three options, and the other has to pick one of those three. Your partner can choose which role they want.

It's a bit like telling two children that one can cut the cake, but the other gets first pick - but it's a hack to combat your own (collective) indecisiveness.

Vincent ,

It helps that the proposal is clearly reasonable, and can be made beforehand, before there's any friction. I might be lucky to have a pretty reasonable partner though.

Though in reality, for me the problem is that often I'm both persons. I don't want to come up with what's for dinner, but I also don't feel like anything. The above hack still works to trick myself into at least making a decision.

Vincent ,

Maybe she just saw that you're on Lemmy working in IT and thought your laptop didn't have enough stickers yet.

Vincent ,

I don't get it... Is the joke just that conservative cartoons label everything and use straw-man stereotypes?

Vincent ,

I suppose it's probably funnier if you actually encounter these irrationally conservative people in real life - though I suppose I prefer the situation where I don't 😅

Vincent ,

Nice try, I'm not eating the onion this time.

(Seriously though, the satire isn't actually worse than this. Which makes sense, because... What the actual fuck. But yeah, that does make it unclear that it's satire and what point it's trying to make.)

Vincent ,

The weather's certainly better, but damn was I disappointed in the car dependency and poverty levels.

Vincent ,

I think "You do now." probably works better than "Now you have one!" It feels more threatening.

(Disclaimer: I'm a native speaker or neither English nor Spanish.)

Vincent ,

It would get boring if we get comments like this (i.e. that say nothing about the particular comic posted) underneath every comic though :/

Vincent ,

I didn't say anything about negativity or prohibitions; all I'm saying is that apparently you feel that this comment would be appropriate underneath every comic by this author, which would certainly not make for an interesting comments section.

Vincent ,

True, but I wasn't calling for a blind cacophony of identical praise either.

Vincent ,

I feel like this is a metaphor, I'm just not sure for what yet.
