I laughed so hard I lost my breath at that dishwasher. I sent it to friends and family.

I have dozens of highly rated comments over the last two years, but the objectively best one I made was just this past week and it got absolutely no attention.

[–] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 2 points 17 hours ago

I just increased its rating by 50% for what that's worth.

All your amazing astrophotography and yet that's the one you choose as your best? :p

[–] lefty7283@lemmy.world 2 points 5 hours ago

He’s my pride and joy

[–] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 4 points 21 hours ago

Truly a great work of art. That's one powerful brain cell, and its owner is adorable.

[–] sxan@midwest.social 4 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

Define "best". Most upvotes? Most comments? Best score (up - down votes)?

[–] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 3 points 19 hours ago

Your choice. I went with vague language for maximum diversity.

Linking this on a post about Luigi Mangione's trial

[–] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 2 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

Can we get a link to your comment? That's kind of what I was going for here, albeit it is really nice to have the direct link to the original reference.

[–] theywilleatthestars@lemmy.world 3 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

I think the original post was taken down

[–] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 1 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

I'm sorry. Thanks for sharing what you were able to preserve.

[–] theywilleatthestars@lemmy.world 1 points 4 hours ago

Also this. At the time the family cat who we got when I was 12 years old was rapidly declining in health. He's since passed away and I miss him terribly

[–] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 1 points 19 hours ago

That was f*cking hilarious. Thank you.

[–] LostXOR@fedia.io 1 points 17 hours ago (2 children)

Best by the numbers, this post on programmer_humor.

Best in my opinion has gotta be Logsday. I literally went outside and lit an edited calendar on fire for that one. :D

[–] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 2 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

Those are good!

That's dedication to meming for sure.

On a side note, I can't open these in the app. They keep getting kicked over to the browser as if it's external content.

[–] LostXOR@fedia.io 2 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

I'm on an Mbin instance, which federates with Lemmy but I guess doesn't get recognized as a proper Lemmy link. These two links to the actual community instances should work: first post second post

[–] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 2 points 8 hours ago

That did it! Thank you. I learned more Fediverse from you.
