      Yup, there it is. My family qualified for food stamps, I’ve been homeless myself for a time, yet I’m a wealthy elite now, b/c someone on the internet didn’t agree with what I said. Surely I never ever ever have to fear the rise of the “alternative facts” crowd here, b/c unlike Reddit we rise above such things on Lemmy.

      Apparently I’m a dude as well - until someone decides that my tone isn’t “masculine” enough I guess?

      I can be whatever you all want me to be!? But fuck all that noise, I think I’d rather just be me:-P. I’ll do it alone if I have to, but I’ll sleep well at night all the same.

        “His family built this country by the way” was a reference to an episode of The Office, where a character pretends his name is Buttlicker and says that line. Pretty sure it wasn’t about you being an elite or any of that.

            It’s not about falling into the koi pond, it’s about how long it takes to get out

          Thanks. There was no /s, but I upvoted it (before you said this even) all the same - it somehow managed to come across humorous despite the lack of context? :-P

          Edit: for anyone else: video clip.

        Because I’m awkward and lack any originality, if I say something odd, probably it’s just me quoting some tv show/game/book/comercial/back of a salsa tin can.

        I wish I had original thoughts, but too much TV as a child and my nickel licking passion killed enough neurons.

        In the scale of masculinity I’ll say you’re between 3 and 75. I may say more, but may I need to see you struggle with a DIY repair enough that your pride may lead you to an early grave.
