    Yup. It’s why I don’t bother reading replies. I said what I said, I don’t care what your response is.

    (No offense. I just don’t wanna hear it.)

        Personally, I prefer the time-tested tradition of r/NotOpButOkay

        You avoid wasting more time on pointless flamewars that way. If someone else shares the same opinion, they can tap-in if they feel like it. A short of pay-it-forward comment style lol

        Predictably, PieFed has that option that Lemmy lacks.

        Although if used for every comment then perhaps better to simply not post the comment in the first place - it’s fairly antisocial behavior to talk but not to listen.

      Some “opinions” genuinely suck. But I’ve seen downvotes on extremely mild takes, too.

      Not to mention the irrational hate boner people have on the thorn dude.

      When you post a comment and it gets downvotes:

      Did you mean to say When you post an opinion and it gets downvotes ?

    Me saying Alec Baldwin was responsible for what he did, and should’ve faced consequences for it. Downvotes aplenty, but I stand by my belief

      I mean… he’s an actor. There’s a person on payroll for props for a reason. Should every actor in Breaking Bad have stopped to make sure it wasn’t real ricin they were handling? lmfao

        That’s not how firearms work. If it’s in your hands you are responsible.

        Would you feel differently if he hit the victim with a car he wasn’t trained to drive but did anyway?

      I was not expecting to get into pineapple pizza so much as an adult. First of all, there aren’t many pizzas I’d turn down anyway. But pineapple is fucking amazing. The sweetness and acidity marries perfectly with rich, melty cheese, just like marinara does. And I beg to differ on the garlic: I like a sauce that bites back.

        I experimented heavily with pineapple pizza until I found out I had an extreme allergy to gluten. The sauce loves some garlic but, if you really want garlic, just toss some diced garlic on top of the pizza with a drizzle of olive oil before you bake. It comes out perfect at 550 for 5-6 minutes or 450 for 8-10? (I can’t remember anymore, I shifted to the former). Buuuuut, that’s how I learned that the two flavors clash when they’re too strong. A piece of pineapple with an adjacent medium to medium-well garlic is not a pleasant combo.

        Also how I found out that Italian small leaf basil and pineapple is literally perfect, always. I’m making a basil pineapple salad tomorrow!

    I always enjoy it when I post a silly joke and the first two people misunderstand it, and then the rest of humanity sees a negative number, so they don’t even give it the benefit of the doubt anymore and just toss their -1 into there for good measure.

    Like, it’s sad that the post went to waste, but I don’t care how far into the negative it is. At that point, a large negative number just amuses me.

    Wait, do votes on comments have any effect at all on Lemmy, or is it just a tally to see how popular your views are?

    What is in the sandwich determines if you cut it diagonally. Tuna/chicken/egg salad sandwiches shouldn’t be cut diagonally because everything falls out.

    • If it’s a mostly wet filling like those you’e mentioned, the cut isn’t what’s making it fall out of the sandwich. Those tend to get pushed out the back and sides even without cutting it. Especially if it’s got a lot of if in there.

        yeah this is my problem with this whole argument - too many sandwiches suffer from any cutting. build it, give it a good smoosh then use the bread to pinch in the ingredients that want to slide around like tomatoes or pickles.

        but, I do recognize, I’m way too serious about sandwiches lol

    Truly, I think some people really think that if something they said is unpopular that should mean they should shut up, or they’re wrong.

    All it means is that the thing was unpopular. A lot of unpopular opinions are just completely correct, but old ways are entrenched etc etc.
