      Wtf, dude, I fucking lol’d at your joke, and I’m just floored at all the subsequent downvotes. I’m so sorry, I really only meant to trigger a fun conversation but something else happened… 🤷‍♂️😅

        You did nothing wrong! And you did, for better or worse. I still had fun learning about lemmy’s perception of irony. Actually, I wanted to know whether you had some specific way of filtering out AI anatomical images? My top 200 images are all AI or unrelated and it makes me sad. I misremembered who replied first. My b. Disregard. Unless…?

        I’m sure this is a woosh. Let me rephrase the thread.

        A can’t imagine a snake’s diaphragm.

        What diaphragm? (There is no diaphragm)

        Stupid silly! This is the diaphragm: [not the diaphragm we’re looking for]

        I had the same kneejerk reaction to the comment, until I checked the link. OP could have worked on their setup a bit better, and is doing themselves no favours by doubling down on it

        It’s entirely necessary when I set myself up for that punchline. Was it a bit conspicuous when I mentioned a very specific body part they lack, and then made a joke?

                It’s punching down to intentionally seem foolish for the sake of a joke? What bizarre reality do you live in? You have no leg to stand on. Like a snake.

                  Uhh, they should have covered this in school even if your parents neglected to do so, but here you go.

                  That’s punching down.

                  You imply they’re stupid or ignorant. You imply their parents didn’t teach them life lessons and you do all that while speaking down to them like you’re better than them. They clearly didn’t get the joke and instead of elucidating them you go on this tirade about how it’s ok to be a jerk if you’re making a joke. It’s not.

              And their comments weirdly get instant upvotes while everyone else’s (who got the sarcasm and got that you’re not actually being rude) is getting mixed votes. hmm…

              I get that we have broader neurodivergence here but isn’t it too much for someone being THAT invested about being butthurt about a sarcastic joke?

          If it’s a joke it’s a shitty joke.

          If it’s not you’re just doubling down.

          Barring all that being a douchebag to people who don’t “get” your brilliant fuckin joke is… Douchebag activity who could have guessed?

              I don’t need to it says it’s the contraceptive in the url.

              No one didn’t get the shitty joke, people have an issue with the shitty way they set it up.

              Here’s a fun one, did… did you read the rest of the comment chain before asking redundant questions?

              No one asked you for anything boss so the answer would be nothing, find a way to not be a prick to setup a shitty joke i guess?

                I know you weren’t the original person, and yet you’re clearly upset. I can only assume it’s because you felt personally insulted.

                I think I’ll continue playing the fool to middling success. Feel free to stay endlessly angry to achieve the same result.

                  So, I’m under the impression that they’re white knighting for my original comment asking ‘what diaphragm?’ which if anyone want to get all fucking technical, was me punching down on you. So, I don’t know, wtf is this thread?

      They’re saying snakes do not have diaphragms.

        Access mostly relates to socioeconomic factors, but you’re largely correct. Use is notably higher in more affluent areas, but snakes are largely homeless and unsupported through reproductive legislation so that rarely matters.

            Diaphragms are a form of birth control. They are making a joke by deliberating misinterpreting the specific meaning of the word used in an absurdist way, in the Mad Hatter style.

              Yeah we all get that, we don’t get why they felt the necessity to set it up by being rude to a random.

              It seems like a bad attempt to cover-up a mistake but whatever.

                I definitely did not think they were being rude, and thought their reply was hilarious.

                Sometimes I reply with these bland and lifeless replies, knowing full goddamn well what the OP is saying, just to get the conversation juices flowing. This one went great till I noticed all the downvotes 😵

                    He’s referencing a legitimate talking point about birth control, and in that light his comment made perfect sense. The whole second half of this thread reads like you got whooshed and then double downed after you realized what happened.
