Some prude edited the word 'sex' out of the meme. Lame.

[-] PeachyMcPeachface 11 points 1 year ago

"lame" isn't super appreciated here. At best it's a homophone of a word that is ableist. At worst, people are actively being ableist. You never know with the internet, we have a ton of extremely problematic people pop in and use words that mean the second option. There's just better ways to express disbelief or calling someone socially inept.

But yeah, prude.

Yeah, I don't think I've ever seen someone use the old definition of lame unless they were being intentionally antiquated, and even then, never in a way to put someone down.

[-] rgb3x3@beehaw.org 6 points 1 year ago

Lame, sucks, bad, etc. They all mean the same thing, essentially.

There is absolutely nothing ableist about using lame. Nobody uses it to mean impotent or unable.

"ass" used to mean donkey. Do most people use it to mean donkey now? No. Do some still? Maybe. Terms evolve, it's a big lingusistic thing, happens in every language with speakers

I had to re-read this a few times, but I see what you mean. I'll try to be more direct about what I mean to say.

[-] Sheeple@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

Something something 1983 or whatever year it was

[-] PeachyMcPeachface 3 points 1 year ago

My favorite part of 1984 was when the fascists nicely explained why something could be viewed as a problem but overall agreed with what was said.

Office space anyone?

[-] Ado@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

I'm an attorney and my favorite is pulling up to the courthouse for a motion hearing or trial with tupac blasting

[-] MJKee9@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

I don't take drugs because of the songs I listen to.

I listen to the songs because I take drugs... And they sound nice. It's mostly because they sound nice

Bodycount's cop killer album

[-] Coskii 2 points 1 year ago

I've had Zeromancer's "doctor online" stuck in my head for around 24 hours. Listening to the classics really puts a lens on how the world has changed in about 20 years.

[-] Madison420@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Bro that's a name I've not heard anyone else say I'm some time.

[-] mindbleach@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago

Oh hey, NDH. Or I guess NNH.
