This guide is worthless. This guide is funny.
This guide is worthless, but it's funny.
The value in this worthless guide is in its comedy.
It's so bad it's good
How wise you must be!
The value in this comedy is in its' worthlessness.
I was in a band during the MySpace days. We got a comment one day: "You sock."
Was it a typo? Did they mean suck, or rock? Only one letter away from both and those letters are pretty close on the keyboard. Schrodinger's Judgement if you will.
I still think about that comment from time to time.
It's like standing in the middle of a bridge, the Levenshtein distance is the same no matter which way you look
"Well perhaps, but it's more nuanced than that," he said, without elaborating.
It annoys me that this isn't just a funny comic. I know some 60+ year old folks who pretty much only talk like that, thinking they've eaten wisdom with a spoon, purely based on life experience. Except that they're not actually saying anything.

so the jordan peterson method?
There are two kinds of apologetics arguments. The direct flawed and the same ones but ambiguous. Peterson is the latter.
I’m currently reading The Conquest of Bread and it talks about how when a revolution occurs and a government falls, the bourgeois upper and middle class will wax poetic about what will happen next, how the vacuum will get filled, etc; while the working class at the bottom will be the ones to actually carry out the work and face the brunt of the change.
This meme is how I imagine those upper class people talking lol. When I read it, I immediately pictured Jordan Peterson fanboys droning on and on about what they think should happen, while actually saying and doing nothing.
Oh, so like most lemmy users.
Lemmy is good until it isn't.
You deserve the more upvotes sir.
I swear someone could post a dog sneezing and there will always be a, “Capitalism is at fault” comment followed by someone trying to introduce Arch Linux.
In the form of a star trek meme.
And I wouldn't have it any other way. ❤️
Low-hanging fruit called.
They enjoy being fondled, please proceed.
It's amazing and scary how many geopolitical, micro/macro economics, and philosophical experts we have here!
Or every government contract I have ever been on.
It's easier to just keep your mouth shut, really.
In Romanian we have a saying: Dacă tăceai filozof rămâneai. Translated: If you kept your mouth shut, you would still be a philosopher.
In English we have "It's better to keep your mouth shut and appear stupid than open it and remove all doubt.”"
For some people, that's verging on impossible.
I’m one of those….
Fools, all of us.
"That's some act, what do you call it?"

Scott Meyer is a very cool guy. Been enjoying his works for over 15 years now.
This advice is so beautiful, it makes me want to jump off a bridge.
Never be afraid of confrontation but also don’t enjoy it.
This sounds like antimetabole and chiasmus!
Tbh, I think this might actually work. People can take it either way and will usually take it the way they want it to sound.
Supporting genocidejoe makes me better than you
Ahh yes excellent. Chat GPT-bathsalts edition is working just as intended.
