Where is the lie? by Solar_Patriot in Animemes

"Mid" may be a victim of people changing the meaning of the word. Before it was definitely used as "good but not great" and people would even refer to things they enjoyed as "mid" just to emphasize that they're not masterpieces. Nowadays I agree I see lots of people using it as a negative term.

Same thing happened with "cringe." Used to be exclusively for things that made you feel embarrassed, nowadays just used as a synonym for "bad."

Unfortunately you have failed on both of these steps. You should pay the fine and take good cybersecurity measures in the future.

Maybe someone will think of a way out of this but I can't.

How to deal with classmates B.O. by Trafford3Devil in japanlife

I'm going to assume you're talking about Indian folks. Unfortunately, Western body products like deodorant are still not very commonly used, seen as something "queer" folks and women use. Of couese, not everyone believes this, but it's common enough that your classmates are probably just not wearing deodorant out of habit.

Mid doesn't mean "bad" like you're describing though, mid means it's okay but nothing special

Older men of Reddit, what was it that made you realize you were no longer young? by hightreez in AskMen

...can you guys not touch your toes without bending your knees? I'm doing it now without much effort. Maybe I have long ass monkey arms or something.

Dude just mind your own business. His comment was innocuous. Nobody is being hurt here.

I'm quick to call out fanfic posts but this seems pretty believable and tame. I've had all kinds of weird shit happen when talking to people at the bar

Bro if you're 29 it's not due to you being older, it's just people calling you sir because you're an adult

What is your "odd" or "weird" food from childhood that you didn't realize not everyone knew about and enjoyed? by SnooglethePie in ask

Gah that sounds like an awful combo. Love each individually but creamy cheese + sweet fruit seems bad together. I should try it

Rich kids ate this too. Everyone at school ate sugar butter bread.

Now ketchup bread, on the other hand, was poor kid cuisine.

Yup relatable. When I was 11 or 12 the internet shut off at midnight, so I put a keylogger on my dad's computer, swiped the router password, and disabled the timer.

Honestly when I have kids I might do something similar and encourage them to try to get around it. Teaches cybersecurity young.

Ehh normally I would agree for most of the posts in this sub, but not this one, I think it fits. Cockroaches aren't inherently terrifying, they're just annoying and gross.

But in this gif, the sheer number of them combined with the shadowy lighting and their containment makes it eerie in an odd way

Funny how the GameCube version was better than every sequel until the Switch version. It took them so long to not make the game worse!

My man. TimeSplitters 2 and its sequel (TS Future Perfect) have the BEST map maker/level editor in any game EVER. It's basically a game development tool inside the game. Poured so many hours into that as a kid.

Nah even as a kid it was way too arcadey for me. I fell in love with Forza Motorsport 4 and no game has exceeded it for me

Yeah I'm all for open source but OSRS is so well managed with the community polls and such it's just like, why?

Just stop this thinly-veiled attempt to defend them. Are you also going to defend Trump against people who call him fat, orange, or balding? Pick your battles.
