Diaphragms are a form of birth control. They are making a joke by deliberating misinterpreting the specific meaning of the word used in an absurdist way, in the Mad Hatter style.
@TheDoozer@lemmy.world
youre kind for providing the explanation. been laughing my head off over this conversation.
Yeah we all get that, we don't get why they felt the necessity to set it up by being rude to a random.
It seems like a bad attempt to cover-up a mistake but whatever.
I definitely did not think they were being rude, and thought their reply was hilarious.
Sometimes I reply with these bland and lifeless replies, knowing full goddamn well what the OP is saying, just to get the conversation juices flowing. This one went great till I noticed all the downvotes 😵
That's nice, it seems a lot of people feel otherwise.
That's nice.
That is a good question. Why are you being rude to randoms?
Who have I been rude to that wasn't rude to me or someone else first?
You were deffo rude first, sorry.
That's how you feel, that isn't however factually sound even by the jerks admission.
Ah, looking at your comment history, you just look for reasons to argue. Not my scene, have a good day.
Yes yes, I sought you out and implanted the idea for you to speak to me, I'm just so damned nefarious like that.
