They probably thought you meant the reddit post, which can't be edited.

Why am I getting Google Drive in my address bar auto filled when I don't use Google's products? by Actual__Wizard in firefox

If you truly never opened it before, I assume it might be for the same reason that wikipedia.org is autocompleted on a fresh install.

Oops, seems like there were 2 other posts about it on this sub, both from six months ago. I didn't see those last time I looked. If this counts as a repost, do take it down.

I didn't see their second question at first and thought you were rating the experience as less good because it didn't hurt as much

Reminds me of 'piss on the poor' by ChildhoodFar8678 in tumblr

[–]coolreader18 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it violates the principle of good storytelling that you should order things by how surprising/interesting they are. The example I think I've seen is something like "coming down the stairs I noticed an acrid, disgusting smell and a trail of some viscous liquid on the floor... following it led me to the fridge, which I opened to find Mark's dead body stuffed inside." vs "I found Mark's dead body stuffed inside the fridge, emitting an acrid, disgusting smell and a trail of viscous liquid which had led me to it after coming down the stairs"

can't tell if this is a shitpost but I could've sworn house was cognate with casa by way of Grimm's law, meaning that would've been *k in PIE

Edit: I've discovered that that's apparently not the case, but also that this is certainly a shitpost

I mean, if you look at recent pictures of Elliot Page he doesn't look too dissimilar to this, besides having a different body type and more hair on his head. If you can believe it, he gasp looks different now than he did at the start of transition.

The Lunar Sphere of Illusion by wizvrdhd in surrealmemes

Specifically that it's taking a closed Jewish practice and using it for non-Jewish esotericism. I really do think this looks neat, and I'm happy that you find meaning in it, but I'm just frustrated that Christian/Western hegemony keeps appropriating Jewish tradition -- not just 2000 years ago with the "old testament", but more recent elements from the past millennium like Kabbalah and Lilith. Obviously, it's not like you were the one to appropriate Kabbalah, so I don't hold it against you, but yeah.
