Saved you a click and way too much scrolling

I probably can't afford that car, but I definitely can't afford that blender.

[-] Blackmist@feddit.uk 24 points 1 week ago

Oh come on now. You expect these people to be able to afford to just be able to send you text? For free. Madness!

Also, use Firefox mobile, install those ad blockers. Have a useful mobile internet again.

Crouch in the corner and hope it forgets about us.

My guess was "Fuck you too" or "Go fuck yourself".

For the last one he could just have quoted Al. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=J-ZfahRzz_w

[-] andrewta@lemmy.world 17 points 1 week ago

To save you visiting the hellscape that is The Independent: those 3 words were "What the fuck?" Nothing really remarkable.

[-] Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 11 points 1 week ago

Could have fit that right in the headline without even increasing the number of words.

Thank you for your service.

These headlines here are becoming some google news clickbait titles.

The image is a flyer for a "Banned Books Club" (Bokklubb för förbjudna böcker) targeted at young people between the ages of 13 and 18 in Bromölla, Sweden. It invites readers to explore the topic of banned books, asking questions like "Which books are banned, where are they banned, and why?" The club aims to discuss these books during the fall and winter, and the first meeting is scheduled for Thursday, September 19, from 3 to 4 p.m. at the library (biblioteket).

The flyer has a "STOP" sign, a warning label at the bottom, and a bird illustration. It encourages participants to sign up via email and features logos for Kulturpunkten and Bromölla Municipality.

Every book report in high school where I could choose the author was a Stephen King novel and I turned out fine. And in Florida too. Class of 1991. 😁. BRD.

[-] IphtashuFitz@lemmy.world 17 points 1 week ago

Back in the ‘80’s I had a high school English teacher that had us read his Night Shift short stories. The entire class loved it.

[-] Reverendender@sh.itjust.works 8 points 1 week ago

Night Shift is fantastic.

[-] InternetUser2012@lemmy.today 10 points 1 week ago

But, are you religious and support the right like it's your job?

[-] Zerlyna@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago
[-] InternetUser2012@lemmy.today 17 points 1 week ago

Welp, then according to their plan, you didn't turn out fine, you're the problem. Good for you though, I'm hoping your state turns it around quickly because I really want to live there. It's beautiful and I love the weather there, I just can't deal with the bullshit they're doing.

I read The Stand and It before high school, and lots of other mature books with "inappropriate" material. It resulted in improved reading skills.

[-] nick@midwest.social 35 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Definitely don’t tell kids about libgen.

[-] Subverb@lemmy.world 33 points 1 week ago

"The man in black fled across the desert, and the gunslinger followed."

Love that book. There's some sad sex in it and a very unsympathetic preacher, but overall pretty tame by King standards.

"What the fuck? Fuck that shit. That's fucking stupid."

[-] ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 20 points 1 week ago

[-] DokPsy@infosec.pub 13 points 1 week ago

Did you forget about the shit weasels in Dreamcatcher, the various instances of SA in Hearts in Atlantis, the forced abortion in the Gunslinger, insomnia, and so forth

I could have done it in 2 words and I'm no great writer.
