… yeah dude. I think that’s what it was lmao.
Go back and read the thread... I was making neutral jokes like the one about the bridge you're selling being in Baltimore (which, c'mon, pretty good).
You, my friend, are the one who made it personal and turned it negative. I just followed your lead.
This is actually because I said you wernt “the smartest cookie”?
Honestly, this shit is so strange. Like are you even for real? You got mad at me for making bad jokes and it's getting to the point of creepiness.
Did I seem upset at those comments? Or did I just make silly jokes about them? I mean seriously dude, take a step back. Maybe log off the internet for a day or two and interact with some real people because... yikes.
I'm done indulging this bizarre obsession you've got. This will be my last reply here. I hope you work out whatever you need to work out.
… this is all because I said you wernt the smartest cookie…?
No. I would say that "this is all because" I made an innocuous (and purposely bad) joke about sentient cookies in response to that.
That really seemed to set you off for some reason. So then it was off to the races, one bad (but completely neutral) joke after another and each time you got seemingly more and more upset... Which I found hilarious in a meta sort of way.
Anyway, it doesn't matter, it's all here in the open to see. Not that literally anyone else on the planet should waste the brain cells reading it.
And here I am doing what I said I wouldn't. It would be nice if Lemmy had that option like reddit where you can disable inbox replies so I don't have to see your befuddled questions...
… it’s because I didn’t laugh at your joke?
