Shut the fuck up, brand!

[–] [email protected] 42 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

I really hate it when corporate Twitter accounts try to be quirky. Wendy's trolling McDonald's was funny for a bit but even that got old and I blame it for making this sort of thing common.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 5 hours ago

They realized that cringe increases engagement via hate-sharing.

How much I missed this. The brands are gaining too much confidence again, we gotta start bullying them

[–] [email protected] 19 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

We do, regularly. Especially here!

[–] [email protected] 13 points 12 hours ago

Unfortunately it is ineffective, since most brands don't bother with such fringe communities, like here.

They already begrudgingly pay minimum wage to have someone write cringe inducing comments on the big platforms. That is, if they aren't just using ShatGPT.

Besides, to be able to bully them, it would also mean they are spamming their crap here, and I don't think it's worth it.

Parody account

...Basically indistinguishable from any regular Twitter account. Why did Elon want these accounts labeled, again?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 10 hours ago (2 children)

What exactly is it supposed to be a parody of?

Just because someone uses it to try to be funny, does not make it parody. It doesn’t make it sarcasm. It doesn’t make it ironic. People love to use all of those incorrectly.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 hours ago

Rick Ashley I assume.

I guess they were a parody account of him earlier but they changed their mind later.

[–] [email protected] -2 points 4 hours ago

That’s a lot of schadenfreude you have there. Maybe work on your cultural literacy.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 hours ago

You know why

[–] [email protected] 119 points 15 hours ago (2 children)

”Hello fellow kids” vibes

[–] [email protected] 12 points 10 hours ago

I also consume the nutrients at the dinner time.

[–] Karl 26 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

This describes it perfectly. The account handler probably doesn't even game.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 12 hours ago

So it's Elons account?

[–] [email protected] 55 points 14 hours ago* (last edited 14 hours ago) (1 children)

So... my phone was out of battery, so I pulled out my power bank and connected the cable to my phone, but then I was feeling like I'm connecting two parts of an explosive device, I instinctively said, loudly:

"BOMB PLANTED"

Now the entire plane is staring at me like I'm some sort of criminal.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 12 hours ago

No wonder airport guards started to break into the toilet after I gave birth to a fist-wide log screaming the same in a sudden mix of terror and glee.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 12 hours ago* (last edited 12 hours ago) (4 children)

No. But I do sing the victory fanfare tune from final fantasy every time I do some small thing. Wash dishes? Victory! Laundry? Victory! Cook dinner? Victory! Take a shit? Victory!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 hour ago

Ok, if you have a lot of dishes to wash by hand, you deserve a fucking fanfare from final fantasy. That shit is hardwork.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Oh. Oh I'm not the only one. I'm not even an avid FF player; I just played some of the remakes on DS.

The victory tune is burned into my brain, as well as the Chocobo theme.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 hours ago

Ohhhh man I love the Chocobo Theme, and have also played like zero FF games besides XV, which was dogshit. But one of the teammates sings this cute little in-game ad jingle that uses the Chocobo theme, so I hear him singing it in my head every now and then.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 hours ago

This is awesome. I still remember that tune from when I played it. Funny how some people think positivity and imagination aren't excellent things. You keep doing you! And I'm definitely going to be copying your idea!

[–] [email protected] 25 points 13 hours ago (2 children)

I can almost see the grey face of the marketing intern shuffling out of another pointless meeting to write this, debating whether their health insurance would cover jumping out of the building window.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 11 hours ago

They tried to say this wouldn't work, but Bob the PM thinks its great and has ordered you to put it through. His only concession to your warning was "well, add an 'lol' or something to make it sound gamery".

[–] [email protected] 6 points 12 hours ago* (last edited 12 hours ago) (1 children)

This is the real reason they're so obsessed with AI... Let the computer write this shit.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 12 hours ago

And fire the intern and let them die uninsured.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 13 hours ago* (last edited 13 hours ago) (1 children)

TFW someone posts "don't be evil" on a thing with the author credit scribbled out.

Screenshot of Twitter. Tweet by @GooglePlay made on March 13th, 2024 reads "Gaming really changes your life lol anyone else out here yelling +10 HEALTH when they finish dinner?" A reply tweet by user @RickAstleyGamin (which was scribbled out in the screenshot OP posted) simply reads "no".

[–] [email protected] 10 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

I didn't find the original. I'm glad you did, I'll edit the post!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 hours ago

Very cool of you! Thanks.

Show her my big o face.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 15 hours ago

10 health from dinner? Unless my max health is like, 40 or less that's just rude.

[–] [email protected] 30 points 15 hours ago (2 children)

My life is like a video game, trying hard to beat the stage, all while I am still collecting coins!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 hours ago

I battle with the evil ways
I travel far and try and save
Sorry, but your princess isn't here

[–] [email protected] 7 points 14 hours ago

I take "Thing that didn't happen" for 500, Alex.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 14 hours ago

For a proper plate of pasta you should at least get +40. If you cooked it yourself maybe even +1 skill point. If you fed someone, "you are now friends".

[–] [email protected] 6 points 15 hours ago

(cricket chirps, but halfway through stops, sees who’s talking, and quietly leaves.)

[–] [email protected] 3 points 14 hours ago

No, but now I'm half the Wolfenstein chicken dinner sound in my head...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

remember that sonic thread?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 hours ago

Are those the MSCHF boots???
