That's some chaotic good fae magic happening.

Literally stole the name, but only because you wanted it gone XD

Dude went dumpster diving for a name. It's not theft if they're throwing it away. One woman's trash is another man's treasure.

I see it more like this:

I see the epidemic of idiots believing bullshit stories is a Lemmy problem as well as a reddit problem.

[-] Soup@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago

I dunno, I can see this happening based on people I’ve met in my own life. Bullshit is not a synonym for a highly probable lie.

Wonder if it's the same Fae I accidentally gave away my attention to.

And then all the pharmacists clapped

[-] WoodScientist@sh.itjust.works 54 points 4 days ago

Stealing someone's name, even a deadname? Is your pharmacist Yubaba from Spirited Away?

[-] grue@lemmy.world 31 points 4 days ago

When your pharmacist is even more of a fairy than you are, LOL!

Is it cool to say that? I always thought that was a pejorative term.

[-] grue@lemmy.world 23 points 4 days ago

I was a little nervous to make that joke, not gonna lie, but I gambled that folks would realize I was just punning about fae stealing a feminine person's name and not trying to be mean.

[-] southsamurai@sh.itjust.works 4 points 4 days ago

I got it :) made me smile.

Got a chuckle out of my. IMO good comedy is very much about intent. You can say something offensive and legitimately funny, that's comedy. You can also say something extremely offensive/racist and actually mean it though the delivery may be kinda funny. Not comedy.

Context.

You talkin about the magic and whimsy of someone?

Or you trying to belittle them for not being toxicly masculine enough?

Context.

Extra lols if he took their last name too

[-] drspod@lemmy.ml 34 points 4 days ago

This would be a remarkable cover for straight up identity theft.

[-] Test_Tickles@lemmy.world 11 points 4 days ago

I suddenly had the scene flash through my head: OP stands in a dimly lit and smoky cantina holding a gun pointed someone sitting at a table and says, "You stole my identity!". Antonio Banderas setting at the table with his feet up, drops his feet to the ground and leaves forward so that his face comes into the light and he says intensely, "It was not theft! I only became the you that you could not be!".
OP says, "That's unfortunate because that me is dead.", and pulls the trigger.

I don't know why it has to be Antonio Banderas, but it does.

Also, as bad as the idea is, it's still 10 times better than the premise behind Face Off.

I really hope this is true. Love it for both of them if it is
