Okay the sentiment is fine but what in the fuck is this template??

[–] 9point6@lemmy.world 26 points 2 days ago

Why, it's magnificent, that's what the fuck it is

How dare you scoff at art

[–] Dasus@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago

I think they've been inspired by puffins, who's males grow and shed their colourful beaks, kinda like reindeer do with antlers.

Dude looks like a psychedelic nun

That was the original working title for Aerosmith's Dude (looks like a lady), but they couldn't fit it into the meter so they ended up doing a full rewrite 🤷

Common misconception, it was dude looks like a Minotaur but they couldn’t come up with enough rhyming words

My dumbass immediately had a picture in my mind of vampires downing bottles of olive oil.

I'm not sure about this meme format

Is Cursed memes a thing?

I refuse to accept this simple universality as an answer. Yes, there are people who highly benefit from having humanity centered around gasoline, plastics, what have you. But here's where you are wrong: vampire is defeated when he's simply killed, oil companies or rather people behind them will continue to exist no matter what green initiative you provide. They don't need oil as the vampire desires blood, it is just incredibly easier to exist off blood.

Any serious short-mid term green initiative should focus on making the choice of oil and gas harder than switching to alternatives

But I will add that they spill a ton of blood to acquire it.

Where does all that blood go? Go ahead. Walk into that question, fella.

Running fast food chain at day, liposuction clinic at night.
