Does this imply showering is evil?

[-] krashmo@lemmy.world 36 points 11 months ago

There's a comma between evil and showering so technically they're saying generic evil and regular showering.

[-] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 21 points 11 months ago

Yeah, and since regular showering is part of the list of evil activities, it would imply showering is evil.

[-] Arkaelus@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago

Well... from the perspective of billions of microorganisms living on our skin, every shower is at least mass murder, soo...

[-] Piemanding@sh.itjust.works 4 points 11 months ago

every step is a mass murder

It's settled, then, never again shall I leave my couch. They'll have to crane me out.

[-] general_kitten@sopuli.xyz 3 points 11 months ago

but the list explicitly states the actions are evil, implying that they are the evil version of an action that is normally not evil. i think that implies that showering by itself is not evil

[-] FooBarrington@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago

It's the other way around. For the other chores, he has to state that he's doing evil versions. For showering it doesn't have to be stated, since showering by itself is evil.
