Someone fucked up the speech bubble gag. It looks like the quote is speaking the picture of Philomena rather than vise versa

[-] HerbalGamer@sh.itjust.works 72 points 6 months ago

Feel free to use this one so that doesn;t happen in the future.

[-] fsxylo@sh.itjust.works 15 points 6 months ago

You say I messed up the bubble gag, but you can't blow bubbles when gagged.

...shit the speech bubble is still in the wrong spot.

Wee feex thee meemee

alt-text: Diane Morgan as Philomena Cunk with a post about boobies emanating from a speech bubble above her

You can thank Twitter's (or knock-off Twitter in this case) mental way of presenting a discussion. Is the reply above? Is it below? Maybe it's a bit of fucking both for no discernable reason. Maybe it's a collection of screenshots from about 4 people's apps.

What was wrong with PHPBB?

[-] bionicjoey@lemmy.ca 6 points 6 months ago

No, it can't simply be Twitter's way of showing threads, because the image itself has the speech bubble pointing the wrong way

[-] Blackmist@feddit.uk 1 points 6 months ago

Oh, I see what you mean. Speech bubble should be pointing the other way.

[-] LillyPip@lemmy.ca 1 points 6 months ago

It’s called exTwitter, or more properly, The Dead Bird.

[-] constantokra@lemmy.one 1 points 6 months ago

Still works.

[-] djsoren19@yiffit.net 67 points 6 months ago

Would people be interested in an instance just for Cunkposting? I feel like this format has great potential.

[-] otter@lemmy.ca 26 points 6 months ago

Maybe not an instance, but a community?

[-] onevia@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 points 6 months ago

I now need this more than words can describe.

[-] Pyr_Pressure@lemmy.ca 5 points 6 months ago

Can the format be changed though because I find the speech bubble placement weird.

Picture should be below the text and the bubble going up to text box.

Right now it makes it look like the textbox is talking and saying "cunk"?? It's backwards.

Unless it's intentional and I'm missing some inside joke or something.

[-] doofusmagoo@sh.itjust.works 2 points 6 months ago

Definitely!

[-] LillyPip@lemmy.ca 1 points 6 months ago

It hadn’t occurred to me, but now I want this more than anything.

[-] Empricorn@feddit.nl 1 points 6 months ago

No. I would, however, like more Cunk! #Cunk4Whatever20XX!!!

Digging into Neelix’s history, however, his fellow administrators couldn’t believe what they found. He hadn’t just created a handful of redirects, as the original report described; he’d quietly created thousands upon thousands of new redirects, each one a chaotic, if not offensive, permutation of the word “tits” and “boobs.” For example, he created redirects for “tittypumper,” “tittypumpers,” “tit pump,” “pump titties,” “pumping boobies” and hundreds more for “breast pump.” In fact, for seemingly every Wikipedia article related to breasts, he did something similar. …

But the deeper the administrators looked into Neelix’s history, the more inexplicable redirects they found. “If [Neelix] thinks links like ‘titty constructor,’ ‘boobie builder’ and a dozen variations [should redirect to] ‘breast reconstruction’ and ‘tiny titties’ with many variations [redirect to] ‘micromastia,’” scolded administrator Jbhunley, “I strongly suggest they do not have the maturity and judgement we expect in [our] administrators.”

… “Who the fuck is going to search ‘suckling of the titties’ instead of ‘breastfeeding’?”

“I especially don’t see the value of creating pages with titles like ‘titty banged,’ ‘frenchfucking,’ ‘licks boobs,’ ‘boobyfeeding,’ ‘a trip down mammary lane’ and so on. Wikipedia is not censored, but we’re also not Urban Dictionary,” added Ivanvector. …

Finally, after six days of exhausting deliberations, Neelix reappeared on November 11th, and volunteered to step down as an administrator and retire from Wikipedia completely.

The Trial of 80,000 Titties was over. Still, it would take administrators nearly three years to undo the damage Neelix had wrought. Recalling “such timeless classics as ‘booby surgeons,’ ‘titty waist hip measurement,’ ‘milks boobies’ and ‘titty physics,’” one Wikipedian concluded, “thank God he apparently never heard the term ‘jugs’ or ‘rack’ or other similar slang or this would have been many times worse.”

Fantastic

Lol this article was so worth the click . Possibly one of the most graphic and enjoyable one i have ever read . Also on a serious note WHAT THE FUCK ?

[-] Kolli@sopuli.xyz 6 points 6 months ago

On a serious note, no harm done. While 80 000 is quite a lot, who's hurt? The user who is looking with incorrect term? No, he found what he's looking for. The joker? No, she got the laughs. The organisation? No, it's not paid work.

Everyone wins. Weird, but not at all harmful.

[-] cucumberbob@programming.dev 5 points 6 months ago

Slightly confused by your last point, about the org itself, could you expand?

The Organisation? No, it’s not paid work.

This seems to imply to me that the organisation could never be “hurt” because it’s volunteer run, which I doubt is what you were saying.

[-] Kolli@sopuli.xyz 1 points 6 months ago

I certainly can. I was referring to waste of time and question of efficiency.

[-] Thief_of_Crows@lemmy.ml 0 points 6 months ago

Nothing they had written was incorrect, on a site the size of Wikipedia, adding more true but functionally useless pages is only ever a (very minor) benefit. If there were only 1000 pages, sure, it'd be clutter. But it is already the case that to find anything you have to search for it, meaning it is a net positive to create those pages.

[-] THE_MASTERMIND@feddit.ch 2 points 6 months ago

No i am just suprised about the motivation.

[-] scarilog@lemmy.world 15 points 6 months ago

"a trip down mammary lane" was the last straw for me

[-] Deceptichum@kbin.social 6 points 6 months ago

I love it when people write so passionately about such ridiculous stories.

[-] WhiskyTangoFoxtrot@lemmy.world 3 points 6 months ago

This is why Kes broke up with him.

[-] LavaPlanet@lemmy.world 36 points 6 months ago

Wait. Have you met the lactose intolerant tho?? They'd be all in, regardless.

[-] pancakes@sh.itjust.works 36 points 6 months ago

There's no group of people more tolerant of their intolerance than the lactose intolerant.

[-] Noodle07@lemmy.world 9 points 6 months ago

I shall still consume vanilla ice cream no matter the consequences

[-] Ephera@lemmy.ml 4 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

As I understand, we lactose-intolerants don't have enough lactase to digest the lactose before it reaches our gut. And in the gut, there's microbes that love lactose. So, they'll actually signal to our brain that they want more lactose.

[-] bobs_monkey@lemm.ee 16 points 6 months ago

I'm lactose intolerant, and boobs are awesome

[-] wreckedcarzz@lemmy.world 15 points 6 months ago

Dunno, that seems quite tolerant of you. You sure you're not just faking it?

[-] EdibleFriend@lemmy.world 13 points 6 months ago

I bet he can't even name three of lactose's albums.

[-] don@lemm.ee 3 points 6 months ago

Makes sense, considering they’re not exactly a fan of lactose.

[-] bobs_monkey@lemm.ee 11 points 6 months ago

Indeed. Boobs in mouth, all day. Swallowing the byproduct, toilet in 20 min. It's a delicate balance.

[-] gmtom@lemmy.world 10 points 6 months ago

Still a bit weird to me that she's so popular outside of the UK.

[-] Got_Bent@lemmy.world 14 points 6 months ago

Not all British comedy translates across borders, but she's absolutely hilarious.

I will admit I was hesitant to even start watching Cunk on Earth because I wasn't in the mood for British, but boy was I glad I did.

[-] Asafum@feddit.nl 13 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

How? She's absolutely hilarious!

I just "found" her yesterday thanks to some mention of her here and then I happened to see a video of hers show up on YouTube.

"I feel like you're mansplaining, can we stick to the Soviet Onion?" I was rolling

[-] crypticthree@lemmy.world 8 points 6 months ago

Y'all can't hide. We're out there on YouTube watching old episodes of screenwipe. We're coming for your panel shows. There's nothing you can do about it.

[-] dangblingus@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 6 months ago

She's the type of British that North Americans like. North Americans appreciate the witty British wordplay, but can't stand the "righto, cheerio, pip pip, beans on toast" business.

[-] don@lemm.ee 7 points 6 months ago

Wouldn’t they be more like chemical weapons factories?

I will gladly sacrifice my gut health for a good milkshake straight from the tap.
