Why go to the trouble of putting a gray box when you could just have put a white box over the censorship scribble?

[–] thespcicifcocean@lemmy.world 61 points 10 hours ago (4 children)

because i have no idea what i'm doing and didn't even intend on putting a box there.

Do you know why the way you did it is right? Because we know you did it. Your way shows everyone that you made an effort. You made a fucking effort and now everyone notices. Go you.

Don't obliterate entries, correct in a way that the previous entry is still legible.

Thank you!

When I see

I wanna share anywhere, I hop on Google Images to look for the highest quality version (I might select the text in the image and copy it and paste it into the search).

Might have saved 0.006 seconds for you. So, over your lifetime, I've still wasted more of your time with this comment than you'll ever save... But anyway!

Why go to the trouble of complaining when you could just not?

Honestly, this is the best comeback.

Because talking about things that bother you help you either fix them or get over them.

Bottling things up didn't work for boomers, and we shouldn't try and emulate them.

[–] danny801@sh.itjust.works 1 points 5 hours ago

Not boomers bottling up their rage over a grey box with text

To show that there was the censoring in the first place. If they were to just cover it over it could just look like they replaced any word there (even though most would probably assume it was fucking anyway

This was is say, no, your censoring is dumb and imma put it the fuck back

[–] Fedizen@lemmy.world 8 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

...never make it to fucking heaven

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 1 points 6 hours ago

that's the second best heaven i've seen

Increases engagement.

[–] gigachad@piefed.social 8 points 12 hours ago

I'm happy they did it at all

[–] otter@lemmy.ca 4 points 11 hours ago

Maybe it was edited on mobile. Some mobile image editors are limited in what they can do
