Nice! Love the taglines, a lot are really funny
^ Lol make this a tagline
i have a couple, one that i remember most is referring to hexbear as pink news but pinkoer after we had a time period where we posted like... only lgbt news/stuff for a couple of days
How does someone spend so much time just making or finding such shit memes.
Or just not understand anything
Basically the Jeff Tiedrich of Lemmy. Insufferable liberalism.
Fun fact: dig through the linked thread if you can, and PugJesus even claims to have read Lenin, yet in other threads can't help themselves from denouncing even the Black Panthers for being ML.
At least Jeff has rare funny moments
Fair, I do love a good Jeff tweet. PugJesus is basically a dedicated left-puncher while Jeff punches Trump at least. PugJesus is non-stop annoying, while Jeff is just cringe in the way liberals are.
Pug Jesus fuckin bit me
Nobody hates leftists more than PJ here, not even the genuine fascists seem to put as much of an effort into left punching
I shudder at the idea of seeing one of mine taglined. All the comments I've made that people reply "tagline" to are the most intensely autistic things I post.
Yea, I personally think I've written far better lines than this one, haha, but it is what it is.
One of my gags is on one of the sidebar for a board
I'm very proud of anti-nautilism
lol I just noticed that the other day, congrats
I've written so many bangers, so much unhinged shit, yet none of it has been made a tagline. I can only assume this is because hexbear is a psyop specifically made to make me a little bit frustrated
I think it's precisely because I often say less than entirely based shit on my .ml account to soften my anti-liberalism for liberals, in the hopes that they may actually read theory, that this one got the tagline. Like, of course lemmy.ml is going to have MLs, lol
It's like in Dune, trying to go slower so the defenses don't pick it up and I can land a strike
Same, comrade 
same.
I hope one day to get a tagline
I hope I don't. That'd be so terrible, I'd just be so mad
I got taglined and I was like lmao they wemt with that one?
I was really hoping my "having your comment become a tagline is bourgeois decadence" would surely have made it. I was even prepare for a "Witness me!" bit with silver spray paint and everything.
That one's good! I have some I think are zingers, like "Communism is when everyone passes around a single copy of Capital and gets temporarily posessed by the Spectre of Communism, and gets to say "it's me, the Communist"
I am going to use "It's me, the Communist" now lol.
The One True Communard
It's canon now:
Hell yea comrade
Just saw "having your comment become a tagline is bourgeois decadence" in the taglines, bring out the silver spray paint!
Also saw I have a second tagline, time to line me up against the wall
Holy shit lol gonna refresh the page religiously now. I actually just bought a deck of Mad Max inspired playing cards this morning. I would say what are the odds but I'm sort of balls deep in Mad Max lore and such since the Autism Gods decided that would be my next current obsession.
Since I "own my own business" I think I'm allowed a little bourgeois treat here and there.
Those are wild odds, haha. Didn't realize Mad Max had deep lore, that's interesting!
Also probably not really crazy considering my other interest I'm trying to get into is cardisty/shuffling as a fidget/hobby lol.
Cardistry looks awesome, but no way am I coordinated enough for that.
As for lore, I have always been obsessed with Fallout, but via ADHD. Never have I loved and hated a franchise more than that, haha
I've messed around a bit with begleri and butterfly knives and started doing it deliberately because I'm not that coordinated and wanted to try to improve. I have shit motor skills in general lol. Cardistry is just my next step in "maybe I can do that".
I almost picked up Fallout 3 and New Vegas over the summer sale and maybe even talked with you about them but ultimately chose not to because modding those games on Linux is broke af. I think I may eventually go ahead and grab them and go without mods though. I'm interested in the lore but don't know anything about it. I think apocalyptic lore/world building in general is fascinating.
We did talk, I remember that! Modding on Linux is in a better state last I ventured, I've done it a few times.
Mad Max's lore is kind of weird because Miller retconned some of it by referencing modern current era tech and politicians in Fury Road which sort of broke the movies into a soft reboot of sorts, but I'm fan-brained and am sticking to the tall tale/unreliable narrative angle that shoehorns the new movies into the older ones. The main historical lore of oil crisis > resource crisis > law and order breaking down still works. Just gotta squint at some of the stuff like Immortan Joe using more modern circuitry for his breathing machine and such or that Tom Hardy's version of Mad Max is supposed to be in his 70s or early 80s. The age thing can also be marked up to tall tale/unreliable narrative too. Basically the History Men might be retelling the tale and they don't have all their info correct. /ramble
I always saw the concept framed by others as a campfire, folk-hero tale.
Yeah that's the angle I've adopted too. It makes it all fit together easier without having to finagle too much.
there's a few of mine that always give me a good laugh
I have one I think.. it's the rude little dog turd one
It’d be nice if one of mine were a tagline, but also, i like the obscurity
