It do be like that, fellow star god.

[captain_aggravated@sh.itjust.works]

Yeah remember the "disregard wenches, acquire currency" meme? It's just that.

[db2@lemmy.world]

Right in the feels.

[isoprenoid@programming.dev]

angry tone.

Sarcastic tone, you're reading what I wrote in an angry voice. Try reading with a happy voice.

that’s 1000+ years of potential change that we have no way of disproving.

What if that's not the point?

"Oh, but it's not exactly what that person said!"

So what? Taking sentences out of context is bad interpretation anyway, especially if we aren't reading the original language with the original cultural context (again, which was over 2 thousand years ago).

You're arguing for the letter of the law, I'm arguing for the spirit.

If you end your lines with double space your new lines won't be eaten.

[chicken@lemmy.dbzer0.com]

Yeah I tried that but the separate quote blocks looked weird so I undid it

[thetetrapod@lemmy.world]

This is way better than the OP.

No, fuck right off. That BS attitude is a big part of what killed reddit. Fake shit that tries to pass itself off as real is lame as fuck and insulting. With pro wrestling or plays or movies, you go in expecting it to be fake. It doesn't really matter if the wrestlers don't have any beef, you still get to see 20 midgets attacking a bullfighter. The lie is just the set up, not the main event. But shit like this post? The lie is the entire thing. Take it away and you just have someone's shitty, unclever, poetry that isn't interesting or funny enough to stand on its own.

What is the entertainment from the meme? Is it that "Auto-translate did this"? Or is it "This is All Star as if it was a passage from the Bible"?

If it's the latter (which I personally found amusing) then why are you getting your panties is a twist that it wasn't a computer that did this?

The brain increases its wisdom, but your heart increases its stupidity.

Oof.

[psythik@lemmy.world]

That meme always drove me crazy because "fuck bitches, get money" should be translated to "copulate with women, acquire currency", not "disregard women".

[cilethesane@lemmy.ca]

"Fuck" can be translated to "disregard": "Fuck that.'

[stevedice@sh.itjust.works]

It would take like 10 times the effort to fake it than it would to just find an Aramaic translator.

[psythik@lemmy.world]

I know but I don't think that was Biggie Smalls' intention. Correct me if I'm wrong.

[killingspark@feddit.org]

It doesn't tell me to go acquire wages so it's arguably even better!

[emeralddawn45@discuss.tchncs.de]

He definitely meant it both ways, as he also says in the song "fuck n***as, get money" and half the lyrics are about women cheating on him or running around and him being like "fuck you bitch"
