why the hell are we watermarking memes here?

  I mean, surely the meme itself wasn't the joke. That would be terrible.
  
  In retrospect, it's probably best not to put the watermark in the final panel.
  
  Nah, the worst part is it’s not even original. This has been getting passed around for about a year.
- Campaign to get more internet dweebs to join us Lemmy dweebs

It should be like the dinosaur appliances in The Flintstones that say "it's a living"
- "This job sucks!"
  
  This job is shitty

IF YOU GO IN ME, YOU DIE

We should watermark everything now

- No. Memes are for the people. No brands, no watermarks. Putting logos and trademarks on everything to indicate who they belong to is what corporations do.
  Besides, I'm not even ON lemmy, yet I can post here too.
  
  They are for the people, but what's the problem with showing where a meme originated from?

Whatever increases the net happiness in the world. 🙂
- A utilitarian, eh? So, a group of men with runaway diarrhea are going to shit in five toilets who do not want to be shit in. You have no way of stopping them, but if you pull a lever they will instead be diverted to a single toilet-that-does-not-want-to-be-shit-in. What is the correct action to take in this scenario?
  
  All, the natural evolution to the trolly-problem
  
  To shit on something that isn't sentient that doesn't want to be shit on. Possibly the ground where it can be used as fertilizer for plants.
  
  Damn. We have a different problem here, the group of army men don't want to shit together in the same toilet.
  I never thought of the trolley problem with a sentient trolley

It would react like the robot in the hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy.
- The doors in HHGTTG are extremely satisfied to perform their job. They are very happy to open and close for you and let out a very small happy sigh when completing their tasks.
  Imagine if you took a nasty dump and the toilet let out a satisfied "Ahhhhhhh..."
  
  Hahahahahaha
  
  New fetish unlocked!
  Great, now I gonna find this doors.....

*sapient. If it were merely sentient it could sense the bodily waste, but would be incapable of feeling any way about it.
- This is a rare case where sentient is being used correctly. Sentient beings do have feelings, e.g. dogs and cats are sentient and can have cravings and even feel hate.
  Sapient means having enough intellect to understand and reason about the situation. The post doesn't actually require that.
  
  So we've got a lot of Homo sentients out there then?
  
  Kind of a grey area, so I'll allow it.

I would like it to be dejectedly resigned to its shitty job just like I am, thank you.

Isn't this a thing from Hitchhiker's Guide? IIRC there's a company that creates sentient, emotional AIs and installs them into things like doors and elevators to make them enjoy their jobs and make the appliances even more useful... but everyone just ends up hating them?
- Here I am, brain the size of a planet, and they tell me to take you up to the bridge. Call that job satisfaction? Cause I don't.

What if the toilet played ads at you based on the food you shit out, where you can't flush the toilet until it's finished?
- Please drink verification can to continue
- I think that's a different question and I hate it. I'd rather shit in a hole in the floor before using a toilet with mandatory ads.
  Literally would shit on the stall door if I saw that in public. Fuck forced ads.
- Oh god. Imagine taking the biggest shit of your life, almost passing out just from the smell.
  And then the ad service goes down...
  
  Please reconnect to a network to resume flushing.
  Contact your plumbing administrator.

I'm pretty sure George would want the toilet to hate it

This scene comes to mind... https://youtu.be/F7o8KuJKizs?si=34KudkyM_hTZ5Ldf
- First thing I thought of, as well. That scene gave me nightmares as a child.

"No. Do not throw away. I give you happy poopy time."
-overly expensive Japanese toilet
- Sorry, you know to much...

Gimme dat poo poo

Bit tangential, but I have to share this gem https://youtu.be/BJfEcPp2H6Q?si=L_dqvsZtJ1XVkpEd.
- What was I watching?

Is that in reference to the Safety Third podcast?

Society is not yet ready for sentient plant creatures who get excited when it's time to fulfill their role of cleaning up our waste products.

I got a worse one
You wake up with yourself standing on your feet, you realize you are half way penetrating your own mother and your dad is half way inside of you, now do you push forward or pull back to get away?
- spinning is a good trick
- Why would you want to get away?
- Well, the easy choice is the right choice. Squat down, and wrap your lips around the pole as it penetrates the hole. You're going to be the grapefruit, honey.

I will downvote any watermarked meme
- What difference does that make to you?
  
  Dude some of us appreciate saving and sharing a crisp meme. Watermarks are the antithesis of that, for a number of reasons.
  But I can't tell if this watermark is ironic or not.
