you think I smell magnificent? blushing-engels

[–] InevitableSwing@hexbear.net 18 points 2 years ago (1 children)

No one's ever told you that?

I've gotten that compliment. I mean - not in words but through their eyes.

[–] NephewAlphaBravo@hexbear.net 23 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Not that one no

I think my favorite compliment I've ever gotten was "you move like a cartoon character"

[–] InevitableSwing@hexbear.net 18 points 2 years ago

"you move like a cartoon character"

Envious.

You are such a hunk

Me if anyone said that to me kombucha-disgust

[–] NephewAlphaBravo@hexbear.net 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

"hunk" has the same ring as "gibs" to me, like you were reduced to hunks of red goop in Unreal Tournament

Google can't be updated with the modern-day lexicon? The word now is himbo.

-"Bro, you're handsome. But, in like a classical way, not in a gay way, I mean. Unless, uhh..." quickly glances at phone "I feel so safe with you??"

-"You handled that really well boykisser "

fucking hell why won't the profitability crisis just kill google so we can open/public-source a better option why does it have to limp on like this becoming infinitely worse by the month, but not so dramatic everyone decides to jump ship at once

The funny thing is that I'm dyslexic so after a certain amount of time (~3 months? ~6 months?) - I might have to google again. I could have entirely forgotten which is right - "compliment him" or "complement him". It seems wacky that I simply can't remember that it's "I" not "E" but dyslexia is a processing error.

The other problem is I learned it's best to use an example because it's faster. If it my example is right - I immediately know that. And if it's wrong - it only takes a couple seconds of scrolling (with my eyes or mouse) to see I got it wrong. Google (etc) keeps saying "We're gonna use AI to make things better!" Well - put that shit aside and instead easily improve your product by having low-level people improve your search. This is Improving Your Search 101 stuff.

i'm a perennial spelling-google-er too, i can't tell you how many years it took me to both convince myself definitely was a word, despite the red lines in word processors (on my many, many misspellings) and that that's the correct way to spell it. and fucking bureaucracy, heaven help me.

also for definitions, even words i've used a hundred times if i'm slightly unsure it's correct for the slot i'm putting it in, always search it up

"You would have done great in WW2, babe. I can really see you killing a ton of Nazis. Especially in Normandy or Leningrad."

"I can't believe you ate all of that."

[–] Yurt_Owl@hexbear.net 4 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)
