I’d say it has to be things you believe to be true. If a wacko is scrolling for hours on nonsense about how the covid vaccine inserts a mind control chip into your brain and how the leftists are going to come to your small town and force your kids to be trans - then that’s still doom scrolling.
I bet that’s a slightly unfair representation of what it actually looked like. Graphics back then were purposely designed for how they would look on CRT tvs which add a lot of specific distortions to images. So taking a screenshot of a game running in an emulator without using a high quality crt filter added to the image will be a very untrue representation of what the game actually looked like.
(Don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying it actually looked great when displayed correctly, but i am saying it would’ve looked considerably better than this emulator screenshot)
You’re mixing up two very different things. In your post you asked how you should respond in the general situation of someone asking if you could do them a favor, and so that’s the question that people answered on this page. But then in your replies you try to apply those answers to a totally different situation.
Here’s the answer to the question you asked, and then the answer to the question you were trying to ask:
BUT
I was giving an example, you aren’t limited to just that exact response
You think it’s strange to ask a stranger for help? That sounds like a cold world to me
To be not rude, all you have to do is be polite.
If a stranger politely asks if you can do them a favor, you don’t have to say yes, and you don’t even have to ask what the favor is, but to be polite you do have to non-offensively respond to what they said. Like you can just reply “sorry, I’m busy right now” and keep walking on your way
Reading this i feel like i jumped into an alternate universe. “Can you help me find more bands like Schlorp, Fring Frang, and Collie Blorp?”
Well that’s good news!
That linked “good news” page has a header saying “Only mods can create threads in this magazine”. Or at least that’s what it says on the instance I’m on
Yes, absolutely it’s useful. Good quality posts that people see is always a useful thing
I can’t think of any Italian dishes that use celery. French tons, but are you sure Italian commonly uses it? What Italian dishes use celery?
What is the celery like after unfreezing?
Sorta but not really. Bottles are much taller than cups and thus are more likely to tip over
Of course plenty of American schools offer Chinese language courses. It’s odd that you assumed with total confidence that the opposite was true.
