RIP innocent book, your sacrifice helped someone make a meme

Rare post where I wish it was AI instead

[–] burntbacon@discuss.tchncs.de 85 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Oh god, just looking at that hurts my soul.

[–] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 22 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I know right? They've probably got booklice on those wings now.

[–] Junkers_Klunker@feddit.dk 4 points 4 days ago

Just adds to the flavour.

I've worked tech support. I know exactly what this guy's keyboard looks and feels like.

I had a friend in elementary school who would eat cheetos while playing Nintendo. And not the smart way with chopsticks neither.

Ever since, I'm anal about keeping my controllers clean. So gross

[–] anomnom@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 days ago

Dumping the bag directly into your mouth is way better than any chopstick nonsense.

[–] Supervisor194@lemmy.world 4 points 4 days ago

Oh man I did not need to know that.

[–] peteypete420@sh.itjust.works 8 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I get the joke, wings are eaten by hand. But as someone who does eat alone at resturants, with a book, can I just say utensils exist.

[–] Corkyskog@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Do you cut each piece off like a surgeon or stab it with a fork to make a skewer and eat as much as you can before it falls off?

[–] peteypete420@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 days ago

Me, Im a stabber. But there is no one right way.

[–] njm1314@lemmy.world 20 points 4 days ago

Deeply offended by this.

[–] MonkderVierte@lemmy.zip 27 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (1 children)

I've got just the inventions for you:

fork & knife chopsticks

btw: rather @shitpost, no?

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 12 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Eat with one hand, book with other

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

You've changed my worldview.

[–] Alexstarfire@lemmy.world 19 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (1 children)

I'm not even a book person and this killed me a little. I am a wing person though. Why would you waste the sauce?

[–] JayFonduh@lemmy.org 1 points 3 days ago

Of course not a book person would never implicate wasting sauce.

[–] stupidcasey@lemmy.world 19 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Gotta stop cheaping out with this paper if you would buy stone tablet's you can just take a hose to them afterwards.

[–] JayFonduh@lemmy.org 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I will lend you my Torah but you must not misinterpret it.

[–] stupidcasey@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Is this an act of love🥰?

[–] JayFonduh@lemmy.org 1 points 2 days ago

Brother please steer your intentions in any other direction. I meant for the intent to not have been from my heart personally but from the Torah to have truly intentionally steered you in a "straight" direction.

How did he take the picture?

We need proof.

[–] HowAbt2day@futurology.today 4 points 4 days ago

Douchey Meta glasses, maybe?

[–] Eryn6844@piefed.blahaj.zone 15 points 4 days ago

really. you just eat your wings and then you wash your hands. and then your wash your hands and then you wash your hands before you touch your book!

[–] WagnasT@lemmy.world 15 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Calm down y'all, it's a library book.

[–] Sciaphobia@sh.itjust.works 11 points 4 days ago

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!

[–] OldChicoAle@lemmy.world 9 points 4 days ago

[–] nil@piefed.ca 11 points 4 days ago

[–] JetpackJackson@feddit.org 7 points 4 days ago

Ahhhh god no not the book!!

[–] someguy3@lemmy.world 6 points 4 days ago

Kindle and push the buttons with your pinky.

[–] probable_possum@leminal.space 6 points 4 days ago

Time division multiplexing is key!

[–] JayFonduh@lemmy.org 3 points 3 days ago

I am thoroughly disoriented please baptize me fellow book-lover.

[–] DeathByBigSad@sh.itjust.works 4 points 4 days ago (1 children)

This is one of the reasons why I kinda like the digital age, I have the option of going digital with like journaling and stuff.

Like imagine trying to move with 15 years worth of journals... lmao...

also fires destroys everything... you can make unlimited digital copies, encrypt, and upload it to like 10 different servers across the world, hell even free accounts with like 10gb storage is enough to store a lot of stuff

I know people say they wanna "go back to simpler times", but for me, nah, I'm good, I like this technological era (minus the corporatist enshittification stuff, GO FOSS ALL THE WAY!)

[–] njm1314@lemmy.world 4 points 4 days ago

Napkins exist yo.

[–] Landless2029@lemmy.world 4 points 4 days ago

e-ink tablet with a water proof case.

Problem solved!
