I’m not sure what prompted that, but if you’re upset about something, I’m open to discussing it. If this is just for fun, well, that’s an interesting way to start a conversation. People have different ways of expressing themselves, and if this is yours, I’ll take it in stride. There are plenty of ways to engage, though, and this one doesn’t seem particularly productive.
If your goal was to offend me, you’ll have to try harder. Words only carry as much weight as we allow them to, and I don’t take things like this personally. The internet is full of knee-jerk reactions, insults, and flippant remarks, but they rarely have the impact people think they do. If anything, they often reveal more about the person saying them than the one they’re directed at.
On the other hand, if you’re actually frustrated, I’d rather address the issue than trade insults. Clarity gets you further than hostility. If something I said or did rubbed you the wrong way, let’s talk about it. I can take criticism just fine, but I prefer it to be constructive. Insults are easy; meaningful discussion takes effort.
If this is meant as a joke, I’ll assume you have a sharp sense of humour. I can roll with that, but let’s keep it entertaining rather than just crude. A well-placed bit of sarcasm or wit can be fun, but straight-up profanity doesn’t have much creativity to it. If you’re going for an edgy, rebellious vibe, at least make it interesting.
Communication is a two-way street. If you’ve got something on your mind, I’d rather hear it directly than through aggression. I can engage with sharp remarks, humour, or even heated debate, but random hostility is just noise. If you’ve got a point, make it. If you don’t, this isn’t much of a conversation, is it?
There’s a certain efficiency to rudeness, but it rarely accomplishes much. A bit more substance would make for a better exchange. If you’re trying to push buttons, I’d ask why that’s the approach you’ve chosen. If it’s frustration, let’s unpack it. If it’s just for the sake of being rude, then that’s a bit uninspired.
Regardless, I’m still here. If you want an actual conversation, I’m happy to engage. If not, well, that’s your call. But life’s short—why waste time on empty words when you could say something that actually matters?
Yeah, I just copy+paste LLM responses and see how far I can go with it. Minimal effort; many triggers. It's the age of apathetic trolling. Best they waste their time on whatever the hell was said in the paragraphs above—I certainly didn't read it—than continue elsewhere being some shithead to someone.
The main reasons given by people to explain why they hang their toilet paper a given way are ease of grabbing and habit.[8]
The over position reduces the risk of accidentally brushing the wall or cabinet with one's knuckles, potentially transferring grime and germs;[9] makes it easier to visually locate and to grasp the loose end;[10] gives the option to fold over the last sheet to show that the room has been cleaned;[11] and is generally the intended direction of viewing for the manufacturer's branding, so patterned toilet paper looks better this way.[12]
The under position provides a more tidy appearance, in that the loose end can be more hidden from view;[13][14] reduces the risk of a toddler or a house pet such as a cat unrolling the toilet paper when batting at the roll;[15] and in a recreational vehicle may reduce unrolling during driving.[16]
Partisans have claimed that each method makes it easier to tear the toilet paper on a perforated sheet boundary.[17]
The over position is shown in illustrations with the first patents for a free-hanging toilet-roll holders, issued in 1891.[18]
Various toilet paper dispensers are available which avoid the question of over or under orientation; for example, single sheet dispensers, jumbo roll dispensers in which the toilet roll is perpendicular to the wall, and twin roll dispensers.[19] Swivelling toilet paper dispensers have been developed which allow the paper to be unrolled in either direction.[20][21
And go fuck Yourself You magnificent fuck.
We are wasting the internet. Good 👍
