if everyone had common sense back then we wouldn't be in the middle of this shitshow today

Maybe the previous generation of manual writers didn't have the common sense to realize that a certain subset of people out there are stupid enough to drink the battery juice if you don't warn them not to.

The label isn't there to prevent people from drinking battery juice. The same people who would drink it would never read a manual, let alone the warnings in it.

It's only there to limit liability.

/boomerhumor, because every generation that comes after is stupid.

We've actually been misunderstanding the phrase this whole time. It's not "common sense" and referring to things everyone should know; it's actually "common cents" and is about those take-a-penny-leave-a-penny things. As in "when you're just a little short, use some common cents." 😌

That's because in the last 50 years someone somewhere was stupid enough to drink the battery. You can't blame that on the latest generation.

No more boomerposting

There was a time when everyone had common sense

Oh, OP, you're such a merry jester!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago (2 children)

honestly, im at a point where i've become anti-humanist.

The political satire is strong this year, and it shows no signs of slowing down anytime soon.

Perhaps the world will crash and burn, who knows, exciting times we live in!

Common sense is limited by the population size that shares the same way of thinking.

What's common sense to one group, isn't to the other. Common sense is people specific, not global.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

That's an interesting observation I'd never thought about before. You're right, "common" just refers to the common culture around you. The common sense approach to something in Germany might be entirely different than common sense solution in Japan.

Ok, lead boy.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

And for what it's worth those are the people you now have to argue with over whether or not drinking the contents of the battery is a good thing just because the manual told you not to.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

And who decided to change the manual to include warnings to not drink the battery?

It sure as hell wasn't my generation.
