German man shat stereotypes by…
Badly dressed
Image of a guy in a plain shirt
The ads of the accessory industrial complex have gotten quite subversive.
Edit: Also the guy looks very snuggleable
I'm in this meme and I don't like it
One is never truly boring or unfunny,
But rather understood by themself alone,
Where some may never get their humor,
But they shall sparkle on as the queer dear they are.
Also: Dresscodes overrated, embrace the all-black get-up.

Sounds too much like a dresscode TBH. Common dress code for e.g. waiters and antifa, and cops usually wear a very dark blue that's indistinguishable from black at night.
embrace dressing in whatever clean clothes you have
The alleged top shortage leads to straight man looking gay man.
The real mystery is how how us straight men get laid in the first place.
Brother, I'm still wondering how I got, and still have, a wife that says she loves me. I think she's just being polite at this point.
This is me too.
Also me, last week a gay friend complemented my appearance and I'm still feeling good about it.
Canadian.
Amen to that.
I’ve heard rumors that meming on lemmy can work
that kind of thing only worked for me once, and that was under an extremely specific set of circumstances.
Turns out that if someone arranges something, and you're the only person that turns up, you can have a date without having to go through all the trouble of trying to set up a date.
Don’t think I’ve met humans who were really boring, just different interests from me. (Or maybe I’m too boring myself)
Every person is interesting for the same reason every number is.
So he’s a straight man?
a straight man who only likes men 😔
I’ve heard there are some MLM, who only get gay with other married straight guys.
that's a republican

Community Rules
You must post before you leave
Be nice. Assume others have good intent (within reason).
Block or ignore posts, comments, and users that irritate you in some way rather than engaging. Report if they are actually breaking community rules.
Use content warnings and/or mark as NSFW when appropriate. Most posts with content warnings likely need to be marked NSFW.
Most 196 posts are memes, shitposts, cute images, or even just recent things that happened, etc. There is no real theme, but try to avoid posts that are very inflammatory, offensive, very low quality, or very "off topic".
Bigotry is not allowed, this includes (but is not limited to): Homophobia, Transphobia, Racism, Sexism, Abelism, Classism, or discrimination based on things like Ethnicity, Nationality, Language, or Religion.
Avoid shilling for corporations, posting advertisements, or promoting exploitation of workers.

Moderator Guidelines
Moderator Guidelines
- Don’t be mean to users. Be gentle or neutral.
- Most moderator actions which have a modlog message should include your username.
- When in doubt about whether or not a user is problematic, send them a DM.
- Don’t waste time debating/arguing with problematic users.
- Assume the best, but don’t tolerate sealioning/just asking questions/concern trolling.
- Ask another mod to take over cases you struggle with, if you get tired, or when things get personal.
- Ask the other mods for advice when things get complicated.
- Share everything you do in the mod matrix, both so several mods aren't unknowingly handling the same issues, but also so you can receive feedback on what you intend to do.
- Don't rush mod actions. If a case doesn't need to be handled right away, consider taking a short break before getting to it. This is to say, cool down and make room for feedback.
- Don’t perform too much moderation in the comments, except if you want a verdict to be public or to ask people to dial a convo down/stop. Single comment warnings are okay.
- Send users concise DMs about verdicts about them, such as bans etc, except in cases where it is clear we don’t want them at all, such as obvious transphobes. No need to notify someone they haven’t been banned of course.
- Explain to a user why their behavior is problematic and how it is distressing others rather than engage with whatever they are saying. Ask them to avoid this in the future and send them packing if they do not comply.
- First warn users, then temp ban them, then finally perma ban them when they break the rules or act inappropriately. Skip steps if necessary.
- Use neutral statements like “this statement can be considered transphobic” rather than “you are being transphobic”.
- No large decisions or actions without community input (polls or meta posts f.ex.).
- Large internal decisions (such as ousting a mod) might require a vote, needing more than 50% of the votes to pass. Also consider asking the community for feedback.
- Remember you are a voluntary moderator. You don’t get paid. Take a break when you need one. Perhaps ask another moderator to step in if necessary.
