Great, now I keep giggling uncontrollably at the thought of “cacaroni and mheese!”
I know that’s three words, and also probably isn’t objectively that funny…but, in my defense, my chronic pain bullshit is acting up to crazy levels and I haven’t been able to sleep in at least a couple days. Also, I’m a childish nincompoop.
ANYWAY, thank you for the entertainment, Srack_Thovel!
They probably found it already censored like that, unfortunately. I keep seeing it more and more often in places where it’s just not necessary and makes no damn sense. That shit is unreasonably annoying to me for some reason, lol.
Since Beehaw isn’t federated with the instance you linked, I’ll paste the comment you linked here for anyone who doesn’t want to mess with opening it externally:
This article is based on a report from the Independent https://www.independent.co.uk/travel/news-and-advice/china-hypersonic-flights-speed-concorde-b2051192.html nowhere does it say they have completed a test flight.
The brand Space Transportation, also known as the company Beijing Lingkong Tianxing Technology, has released an animated video which shows how its proposed “space flights” might look
That’s awesome. I hadn’t heard about that. I love silly shit like that! :)
Every now and then, do ya fall apart?
That’s what the pumpkin told them, too!
A ‘smash party’ could sound like some sort of euphemism, I suppose. I’m guessing that’s what they’re referring to. They’ve just got a much dirtier mind than the rest of us.
It’s not like it’s one or the other. We need to improve in both of those areas.
I was thinking more like a 1Guy1Jar type of thing, but with a pumpkin. At least it won’t shatter into glass shards this time!
(I can still clearly hear the sound of the glass after all these years…)
I wish I had a cool family member like you when I was a kid! Thanks for being you. :)
Oooh, good call! It totally does. I bet a Toxic Megacolon show would have a wild and kickass mosh pit.
I’ve always thought “hemoglobin,” “ankylosing spondylitis,” “rectocele,” and “postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome” were fun to say. There’s definitely more medical words I like, but I’ve got mad brain fog, so I’m not able to come up with much at the moment. Which is a major bummer!
Yes! This is a big one that bugs me how often people don’t even attempt this. Darn noobs need to lurk moar! It’s basic netiquette.
The consequences will NEVER be the same!
Haha that reminds me of a shirt I had around '08/'09 that just said “Awesomesauce.” I kind of miss the silly stuff like that and the shirts you mentioned. It really does seem like it was a simpler time :) Nowadays life is pwning me left and right!
Hot damn! Where’s my wallet!?
The only reason I know/knew is because I googled it way back when, ha!
IIRC, it had something to do with how the software formatted comments. If you just used regular spaces to try and line the triangles up, it wouldn’t work, because the formatting would ignore any spaces at the beginning of the comment. So you had to use a different kind of invisible character, one it wouldn’t ignore and get rid of, by using an alt key + number code that’s slipping my mind because I’m not in front of a keyboard to use the ol’ muscle memory.
(Although I rarely ever actually posted or commented. I took ‘lurk moar’ very seriously.)
A lot like how on here or Reddit when people try to do the shruggy guy ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ but because of the way the formatting works they get ¯_(ツ)_/¯ since they don’t know enough to figure out how to make it display the way they want
… I’m sleep deprived, can you tell? Lmao
That’s exactly what I was just thinking! Lemmy’s formatting doesn’t work the same way, so it doesn’t work correctly here. I think this is the best I can get it, lol.

Oh my goodness, you’re totally right! I knew that from watching shows from over there but I hadn’t made the connection at the time. Maybe I remembered it subconsciously somehow and that’s why I thought it was so funny. Who knows, lol. I’m glad somebody else found it funny, too.
Cackaroni and mingees got me giggling, too. Nice work!
