- I have decent throwing aim. I can shoot most trash into the bin from a couple of meters away. With practice, I can probably increase my range.
- I am pretty flexible for someone my size.
- I have a pretty scary evil laugh that can scare the neighborhood children away.

Thank you, congratulations for the two years, and may this instance go on in the best condition for many more years to come without admins being burnt out.
megane-kun@lemmy.zipto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•A genie grants you a wish at random: you're guaranteed to win your next argument. Who do you argue with?English2·3 days agoYeah, that’s a good point. Maybe I can just cut to the chase and outright assert “You did a bad job, hand all your power to me.” 😅
megane-kun@lemmy.zipto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•A genie grants you a wish at random: you're guaranteed to win your next argument. Who do you argue with?English2·3 days agoI agree~ And thus I would agree that arguing with God (“I can do a better job than you!”) might be worth a shot.
megane-kun@lemmy.zipto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•A genie grants you a wish at random: you're guaranteed to win your next argument. Who do you argue with?English2·4 days agoWell, you may win the argument against the genie, but it doesn’t guarantee that the genie would be granting you more wishes–because maybe they just can’t (the universe itself might not let it or something).
Just like some convenience store clerk agreeing that your coupon should be accepted, but the higher-ups won’t–and she can’t pay for it because she’s got even less money than you do.
megane-kun@lemmy.zipto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•What is the cutoff distance when you point and say [thing] is "here" or [thing] is "there"?English2·7 days agoI’ve always thought the cut-off is whether it’s near the speaker (“here”) or near the person being spoken to (“there”). My native language has a three-way distinction (near the speaker (“dito”), near the person spoken to (“diyan”), far from both (“doon”)), so it’s pretty easy to just collapse it to “here” and “there”.

To me, it’s mostly how an instance is ran. How it makes its decisions: defederating or not, and with whom, how they handle complaints, how they handle bans, etc. makes a difference in both the communities it hosts and its members.
There’s also the matter of user culture. Some instances, like Beehaw, Lemmygrad, and Hexbear are known for a certain user culture. Some users might steer clear away from certain instances because of that perceived user culture.
And then there’s the issue of defederation stance. It might not be readily apparent, or affect your user experience in a big way, but for some users, it’s a factor. This is also where lemm.ee made its mark. It basically used defederation as a last resort, and some users were drawn to that.
Lemm.ee refugee here. I made my account over twenty-four hours ago, and was expecting that the registration will take time to be processed since at the time I made my application, this instance is among the most recommended. I was expecting the admins to be swamped. I was pleasantly surprised when I went back to my e-mails, an e-mail confirmation request was waiting, and just minutes after my confirmation, my registration was approved.
I am very thankful for the swift response, and thankful for the way this instance is ran (my primary reason choosing this over the others–it reminds me of lemm.ee in a good way).
Again, thanks!
Same! I was voluntold for the class basketball team because of my height. I was too unathletic for it, however, and I only lasted one week. However, like you, I can throw paper waste from almost anywhere in the classroom and shoot it into the bin. I can also shoot a worn-out piece of chalk to its container from the middle row. I was pretty lousy with paper planes though.
The “throw trash into the bin” ability comes in clutch when I’m too lazy to stand up and put trash into the bin. That’s where I got most of my recent practice!
