You Don't Matter, Give Up.

Welcome to "You Don't Matter, Give Up."

This community is inspired by the concept of text that conveys opposite messages when read in a different manner. While it shares similarities with [email protected] and [email protected] in that all of these play with the idea of misreading text, YDMGU specifically focuses on phrases that can be read in both directions, with each interpretation being valid and opposites of each other.

Important Note: This subreddit is not a place for discussions about suicide or self-harm. If you or someone you know is struggling with these feelings, we urge you to seek help. Please visit [email protected] or reach out to appropriate resources for support. You matter, don't give up.

Thank you. May I have another?

I can’t make sense of the text no matter how I read it.

It's kinda read exactly how it's written..don't add punctuation.

'No one saves you more on milk'

(Implies that grocery store is the lowest milk price and no other store offers lower prices)

You could also add the following to the end to have it make more sense " ,but 'store name!' "

But what if this is actually a boneappletea and they spelled "moron" as "more on"?

Whenever i see text like this, i assume the big singular word is used in both sentences, so i'd add milk agaon onto the end.

That does work too (well somewhat ;) )! "No one saves! Milk you more on Milk!"

I save myself more on milk by not buying it in the first place!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

"jesus saves"... postage stamps. Philatelic whore!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

No one saves you more on.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 weeks ago
