Sorry, but this is a bit too much of #thathappened for me.

[–] Rhaedas@fedia.io 128 points 1 day ago (5 children)

ThatHappened is a flat circle. Sometimes things are so conveniently contrived looking that they did really happen. Truth is stranger than fiction.

The most believable part is that is what a Rogen fan would say.

Maybe. But i've never actually met or talked to anyone that says shit like that. Do you guys discuss podcasts like this with friends, or even worse, randoms? It's like taking about some reality show or something, who cares what an idiot has to say about a subject. It boggles my mind.

This kind of wordvomit has to be related to close to 2 decades of 140 character limit "discussions" online. I never understood why anyone would want twitter, and i get a greater feeling of justification in my belief for every day that passes.

Sometimes you’re in a social gathering that’s polite and one guy invited has a bug up his ass. Like, I have a guy in my social group who keeps joking that women are going to get forced to get pregnant. All the men in the group now vocally tell him it’s not funny. He’s not even weird in other ways that are noticeable.

I’ve also met full gown men who still love Rogan and believe the sentiment of the post. They are often kind of close minded and dumb.

Just be really grateful you haven’t had the misfortune to run into these members of society haha

(I agree with your sentiment about twitter. I never saw the draw)

maybe it's less of a flat circle and more of a downward spiral.. or maybe things are just getting more and more stupid every day.. or maybe it's a cyclical decline.. or maybe THE PRESIDENT IS SELLING CARS AT THE WHITE HOUSE

I hate to say this, but this is one of the most Reddit flavoured “thathappened” posts I’ve seen on lemmy

[–] yarr@feddit.nl 3 points 17 hours ago

One negative thing about Reddit's slow downfall is that all the same shitty actors will start to come over here and employ their same old boring karma farming tactics. Hopefully the way lemmy is federated keeps things from getting too shitty. Reddit's corporate overlords are getting more and more controlling. On lemmy, at least for now, you can just hop instances if you start getting cranky.

I believe the first part. I dont believe the quick and clean comeback.

[–] surewhynotlem@lemmy.world 52 points 1 day ago (2 children)

I do. Because it's not the first time that someone talked down to his doctor wife, and it won't be the last.

I'm sure the first time he said nothing, but by the fifteenth time, you get good at it.

[–] earphone843@sh.itjust.works 14 points 1 day ago

Yeah, my wife has a higher level of education than me, and I get it.

My best friend's uncle's ex girlfriend was there and she said everyone clapped as well.

"Did you just invoke 'intellect' and 'Joe Rogan' in the same breath?"

[–] flamingo_pinyata@sopuli.xyz 26 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Joe Rogan is fairly intelligent compared to some of his guests

[–] goldteeth@lemmy.dbzer0.com 67 points 1 day ago

but then again, so is a bottle of lukewarm seltzer water.

I honestly don’t know. It would be completely justified if women flipped out more often.

I like her husband’s response, though.
