The Fediverse is too new and decentralized to have its own sayings, so all we have is the memories of our old home. Besides, these sayings remind us of a better era of Reddit where it was just a bunch of techie weirdos asking each other “when does the narwhal bacon” and trying to bait newbies to click on /r/spacedicks. I still remember my first days on Reddit, when I was grounded from the family computer and stole my dad’s laptop to browse. Someone linked /r/spacedicks and convinced me that it was the NASA memes subreddit. I clicked on it and was waiting for the page to load on the terribly slow wifi when my dad stormed into the room, furious that his laptop was missing, and proceeded to beat the shit out of me with a set of jumper cables. It hurts so much to see the site I grew up with be destroyed by corporate greed like that, but life goes on.
Gee dude those jumper cables really got me, well played. Yeah, you’re right. I didn’t want to be a downer, if it brings you guys joy then by all means. You know what, my reddit account it 12 years old, I know about r/spacedicks, but I’ve never been nor do I know what content is posted over there. I feel like that’s an achievement by itself.

I’m with you homie, but I’m cautiously optimistic that we’re gonna build something cool here.
I prefer rogersimon10’s gimmick to shittymorph’s, the hell in a cell copypasta got boring because it was just added to the end of random comments. On the other hand, the stories in rogersimon10’s comments were all relevant to the jumper cables so it was more fun to read.

I was so worried that your story was going to go shittymorph
