A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions

Rules: (interactive)

1) Be nice and; have fun

Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them

2) All posts must end with a '?'

This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?

3) No spam

Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.

4) NSFW is okay, within reason

Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com. NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].

5) This is not a support community.

It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions. If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.

6) No US Politics.

Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !uspolitics@lemmy.world

7) No Hit-and-Run questions.

Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand. It's not fair to the ones who took their time to answer, and it's not in the spirit of the community.

8) No Bots.

Posts or comments from bots, LLM's, AIs, Neural Networks, Transformers, or Marvin the Paranoid Android are not welcome in AskLemmy. Real humans only please.

Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

I bet that at least 80% of us have a shirt that references a cartoon character and/or their franchise.

...same. I was all confident in the fact that I never buy shirts like that, until I remembered I have the meseeks shirt... "Roses are red, this life is a lie. Existence is pain, I just want to die." Lol

I loved it so I bought it, but I'd never actually wear that in public

20%er.

ETA: Does a ninja turtle costume T-shirt count?

parent

[–] ArgumentativeMonotheist@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago (1 child)

Not me but if I found a cool Rurouni Kenshin or YYH shirt in the wild I'd definitely get one, lol. I did have some t-shirts of Jesus whipping bankers that I used to wear to work often, though. 😅

I do not have shirts with pictures. I have some nondiscript texts, but not pictures.

I generally wear one of many identical black tees during the workweek, I don’t have any cartoon shirts though.

My only printed shirt is purple and has a unicorn on it. Does that count?

Cover art of the original "Lemmings" PC game, showing one large picture of the game's cartoonish Lemming creature with a lot of smaller ones in the background.

Reddit studies have shown the vast majority of users are GenZ males. And from many of the conversations I've had on Lemmy, it certainly seems like most users are on the younger side. And from my perspective as an older millennial, every GenZ male has the same stupid haircut.

It is amazing how that style took off. Its not good. No different than our hairstyles of old though if you think about it.

Every generation has their "bi-level" haircut. From the bowl-cut to the faux hawk to the long bangs/short sides emo "swoop"--all the way to this, the 20s broccoli. There's also sometimes the mullet they try to pass off as a "wolf cut." Sure, kid.

This is funny but I'm surprised Mint is at the bottom.

I guess I shouldn't be. I didn't really notice how popular it's gotten. I'm used to thinking of it as a cooler Ubuntu.
