People on here tell me to Touch Grass if I don't worship their favorite influencer or politician, but I'm literally an amateur botanist. I touched more types of grass last year than they'd touch in 10 lifetimes.

the irony is that people are telling you to touch grass for not knowing things they do from staying online, and not by going out

was the grass outside when you touched it or was it grown in your lab?

[-] FiniteBanjo@feddit.online 8 points 3 weeks ago

I'm an amateur, I don't have a lab, I have a greenhouse and a home office.

[-] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago

... I'm not hearing "the grass was outside". I'm hearing "the grass was grown in my greenhouse and taken to be touched in my home office, where I am touching it right now"

[-] FiniteBanjo@feddit.online -2 points 3 weeks ago

You think I keep a greenhouse indoors? Man, no offense, but I think you legitimately do need to touch more grass and see the outside world a bit.

[-] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago

To be clear, I imagine your greenhouse to be in your garden, which, while seperate from your house, is still located in your home territory; and outside in this context refers to "public area outside of your territory".

And it's whatever for teasing and jokes. I hope I didn't upset/offend/hurt you.

Can I plant grass in your head and touch it to be some CoCain farming?

I'm on the page but those dick shunning areas are kind of old like Emmet & Morty so I gotta type Riddickulously to the extent that you don't feel insulted like my own parents and the last guy

Now I'm all joke point killing and roller coasting my eye too. I'd burn a dollar to try to spark it back up but I'm on disability.

Hold on. I think I can find some plastic pennies from a game I got here...

But you are in the greenhouse...

[-] bright@piefed.social 3 points 3 weeks ago

Does your greenhouse have sides, a top, and at least 1 door? Then the space inside there is indoors.

[-] FiniteBanjo@feddit.online 1 points 3 weeks ago

I'm not convinced. Its got light, dirt, plants, rain. Even if I were to agree that the Greenhouse is an indoor space then it's not like I tunnel into it from a secret passageway to get in.

Why not tho?

Dinosaurs were having absolutely impenetrable discourse about the most inconsequential shit imaginable at all times.

[-] lath@piefed.social 5 points 3 weeks ago

Trees are grass.

[-] Quibblekrust 4 points 3 weeks ago

It's something dinosaurs smoked to get high.
