Is it Berenstain or Berenstein bears?

[–] Kitathalla@lemy.lol 8 points 1 week ago

I hate you right now. >:(

It's Bierstein Bären, actually.
Just to double-check: Who won WW3 in your timeline?

[–] Rolive@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 1 week ago

Nobody did, WW3 has only losers.

Why yes it is

Can't be swearing on the Internet! I think you mean f***. Possibly even **** or even better fudge. Would hate to upset the Americans! They might impose tariffs.

What are you even on about?

They're joking, referencing the propensity of companies of late to try and sanitize the internet so people have taken to censoring memes and comments like that, even with words that aren't curse words (thus the existence of words like "unalive" and "sewerslide" to reference suicide.) So much so it has creeped in here from their users and stolen memes as well now.

Though "American?" Iirc TikTok started this mess, and American companies are probably hopping on board now but I don't use anything but lemmy and masto so who knows.
