To use "u", "ur", and "your" in the same sentence is mind-blowing.

[–] nightofmichelinstars@sopuli.xyz 24 points 9 months ago (1 children)

At least they r each used correctly.

Did Zoomers just solve a huge problem that's plagued the English-speaking world for generations?

[–] Blackmist@feddit.uk 6 points 9 months ago

I think text speak is a bit older than the zoomers.

But in any case, I propose u're for the sake of grammatical correctness.

And yet here you are

in case of cats, you just gotta learn that if they want to be with you they would be already there so no point in carrying them

When your kid tells you he's VERY HUNGRY and you do this wonderful meal, and he takes 2 bites and says he's full 🤬. At that moment, those 2ms after he says that, you really hate that little fucker's guts.

We had to feed next door's kid one day because of some family emergency.

"How many fish fingers do you want?"

"Two"

Sits down, eats one.

"You said you wanted two..."

"I only ever eat one but my mum always puts two out because she thinks it looks mean if she only gives me one."

Yep, same reason. You always make like A LOT extra... in case he/she wants some more... in reality, you become a cold meal expert when you're a parrent.

[–] Catsrules@lemmy.ml 2 points 9 months ago

The second one is to keep the cat distracted long enough that you can eat the first one.

I feels bro

That works both ways. I took my cats to the vet yesterday. They only realized it wasn't a camping trip when we pulled out without packing the dogs or any gear.

[–] SomeBoyo@feddit.de 7 points 9 months ago (1 children)

You take your cats camping?

[–] holycrap@lemm.ee 4 points 9 months ago (1 children)

In a camper trailer, yes. They love it.

[–] SomeBoyo@feddit.de 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Are there any problems with them getting out/running away?

[–] holycrap@lemm.ee 3 points 9 months ago

Nope. They know the trailer moves, and never go for the door. I've never had a problem with that.

[–] phorq@lemmy.ml 6 points 9 months ago

That's just its way of getting you to pick it up again.

I might get downvoted but it’s not betrayal. Betrayal would be if the pet called the cops on you. That’s why pets can’t talk.

Having the pet go anywhere else might be a let down but it’s not betraying you for wanting to be elsewhere
