Fuck yeah libraries.

Mine has a "this is how much you've saved using the library instead of buying this fiscal year" segment on the receipts. Last year was around $1600.

Who said anything about it being bad?

[–] Mongostein@lemmy.ca 5 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Oh lol no one I guess.

I read it as “yeah fuck libraries” when I was stoned last night.

My bad.

So "fuck yeah" is a positive comment, while "yeah fuck" is negative?

Yep. Language is the shit, but its logic is shit.

Lojban to the rescue!

Grammar. It's the difference between knowing your shit and shitting your pants.

[–] Mongostein@lemmy.ca 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Well, there should be a comma in “yeah, fuck libraries” but yes.

[–] Kornblumenratte@feddit.org 3 points 10 months ago

Now I get it! Thanks.

Doesn’t seem bad to me

We're denying someone profit on the potential sale of whatever the library provides.
