Anon talks about first nations warrior princess. Posts picture of an Italian in brown face....

[–] Frog@lemmy.ca 113 points 6 days ago (4 children)

To be fair, anon also can't tell the truth or if someone is making shit up.

[–] Robust_Mirror@aussie.zone 27 points 6 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (1 children)

I'd wager the vast majority of people that don't know anything about another person's religion couldn't tell if what they're saying is true or not.

Circumcision, fasting, transubstantiation, without any knowledge or frame of reference there really is no way to tell if someone is just talking out of their ass or not when it comes to religious traditions.

In my culture we sing our religious allegiance to the decapitated head bust of the great dictator who secularised the country

(not even joking)

[–] JokeDeity@lemm.ee 3 points 5 days ago (1 children)

I've got a lot of probably incorrect guesses. What country?

[–] tetris11@lemmy.ml 6 points 5 days ago

turkey, circa 2000

[–] Mac@mander.xyz 19 points 6 days ago

Relatable tbh

[–] ColeSloth@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 5 days ago

What is...potato ?

[–] DaMonsterKnees@lemmy.world 3 points 5 days ago

Damn yo, this doesn't add much to the conversation, but your reading comprehension skills are laudable. Well played, friend!

[–] Soulg@sh.itjust.works 32 points 5 days ago

It's 4chan, that's like the most respectful image he could've possibly used there

[–] not_a_dog@lemmy.world 4 points 5 days ago

Also, the native 'princess' thing is an extremely tired stereotype.

Fake: anon has a gf
Gay: anon likes to look directly at the moon, which means he likes to be mooned

[–] bane_killgrind@slrpnk.net 10 points 5 days ago

Saiyan: anon looking at the moon grants him great power

[–] photonic_sorcerer@lemmy.dbzer0.com 13 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Your comment is Gay: stebo02 thinks only of men's asses

[–] stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 points 5 days ago

can't argue with that

[–] RecluseRamble@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 5 days ago (3 children)

"qt3.14" seems pretty authentic though.

[–] Blackmist@feddit.uk 12 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Seems pretty aut-something, but not hentic.

I'm sure there's some henti in there somewhere.

[–] stebo02@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 points 5 days ago

that's just the native language of 4chan

[–] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 8 points 5 days ago

Seems like a fairly old version though.

[–] MBM@lemmings.world 47 points 5 days ago (3 children)

It's amazing how quickly I've become exhausted of "qt3.14"

[–] Frog@lemmy.ca 61 points 5 days ago (2 children)

I know right?

Why would anyone use a version of QT over 20 years old?

[–] brown567@sh.itjust.works 22 points 5 days ago

Calm down, DiCaprio

[–] bamfic@lemmy.world 3 points 4 days ago

Found the linux desktop app dev. Here, have a song: https://youtube.com/watch?v=NbTEVbQLC8s

[–] Wirlocke@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 4 days ago

It's like an awful combination of a boomer making a flirtatious "joke" and the hyper nerdy language of The Big Bang Theory show.

[–] Rooskie91@discuss.online 16 points 5 days ago

You must have gotten frustrated extremely slowly then, because that's been around since the beginning of /b/

[–] JusticeForPorygon@lemmy.world 73 points 6 days ago (2 children)

Google says they can look at the moon just not during a lunar eclipse

[–] Iheartcheese@lemmy.world 61 points 6 days ago (3 children)

That's when it tries to get you

[–] Thcdenton@lemmy.world 29 points 6 days ago (2 children)

Assume the victory position

[–] TriflingToad@lemmy.world 3 points 4 days ago

I still don't understand what I was supposed to see in the moon, I feel like it was a 'oh shit' moment but idk I couldn't make anything out really

[–] marine_mustang@sh.itjust.works 22 points 6 days ago (1 children)

More like that’s when the spirits are getting it on. Rebirth of the world, that kind of thing. Source: married into Diné.

[–] Fuck_u_spez_@sh.itjust.works 11 points 6 days ago

Nice of the spirits to dim the lights first.

[–] shininghero@pawb.social 12 points 6 days ago (1 children)

ITS IN THE LIGHT
THE MOON CAME IN
HE FOUND ME
THRU THE MIRROR
MOONLIGHT WHITE
WHITE LIKE EYES
NOT LIGHT BUT BLOOD
I DROWN IN HIM
IF YOU ARE AFRAID
WE WILL LOOK TOGETHER

[–] tetris11@lemmy.ml 2 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

(Harvest moon)
I see the days grow shorter
I feel the nights grow cold
I sense the darkness clearer
I feel a presence here

I know they'll find her some day
They find them all that way
After the thaw in springtime
The snow melts away

[–] angrystego@lemmy.world 3 points 5 days ago

Oh, but that's the BEST time to look!

[–] iAvicenna@lemmy.world 19 points 5 days ago (1 children)

anon apparently also cant use google

[–] Reddfugee42@lemmy.world 17 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (3 children)

People within the supposedly same religion can't agree on things all the time. It's entirely possible that his girlfriend's version of the religion is nothing like what op would find online, or even more likely, that ~~Apple~~ op would find multiple claims online that disagree with each other.

The thing about religion is if looking at the moon is against a religion, but some senior person in that religion really likes to look at the Moon, it'll suddenly be allowed.

"The Internet says you can look at the moon"

"Oh that's regular Navajo. I'm Fundamentalist Navajo. Also, fuck you for arguing with me about my religion. We're through."

[–] shalafi@lemmy.world 13 points 5 days ago (1 children)

He said, "Northern Conservative Baptist Great Lakes Region Council of 1912." I said, "Die, heretic!" And I pushed him over.

I fucking love Emo Phillips.

Saw him and Weird Al in 2018. What a great show.

[–] oatscoop@midwest.social 2 points 4 days ago

"Huh, interesting. Why aren't you supposed to look at the moon?"

Most people aren't psychopaths and actually enjoy sharing their beliefs if you ask in a respectful manner.

Then talk to her family about it? This really isn't that difficult...

[–] drapeaunoir@lemmy.dbzer0.com 21 points 6 days ago

Knows so little he uses an image of Iron Eyes Cody? Nah, seems too ironic to be real.

[–] Nurse_Robot@lemmy.world 17 points 6 days ago

read an entire novel about Navajo and their crucial importance when it came to coding messages in the world war Remember next to nothing in the one time it's relevant Ah shit

[–] Draegur@lemm.ee 9 points 6 days ago

OOP better not whistle at night either.

[–] nutsack@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago (1 children)

didn't this get posted already

[–] ironhydroxide@sh.itjust.works 4 points 5 days ago

Yes, otherwise early to RISA couldn't have posted a screenshot of it.
