Well I think this is what's called a" hey where'd that go?"

John, the technitian, has dropped so many of those at this point he just carries a bag of them.

I actually laughed out loud at this. I imagined it more as John has been blowing the whistle about the faulty metal detector for a long time now. He's filled out forms, sent emails, notified his supervisor, etc. Months of frustration go by. He finally just buys a bag of these and randomly chucks one in when no one's looking so it'll eventually make it to a consumer, effecting real change.

And they took a photo of it, had a laugh, and nothing changed.

Now john uses arsenic.

Damn, you got me twice.

[-] scutiger@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

No, John! That will just make you sick!

Then: I'll better ponder on that with a little snack.

An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men's Club.

https://dullmensclub.com/

1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.

2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.

3. Avoid repetitive topics.

4. This is not a search engine
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions or identify objects. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.

There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.

Some other communities to consider before posting:

5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.

6. No hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.

7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.
