I’m here thinking that if I came across a severed finger, I wouldn’t pick it up…

[–] myrrh@ttrpg.network 9 points 18 hours ago

...speaking as someone who just lost a fingertip in a car-door accident, i'd be all like "oooh, free finger!"...

Some boys have just the right combination of curiosity, mischief, carelessness, & lack of self-preservation instincts.

[–] Bluegrass_Addict@lemmy.ca 62 points 1 day ago (3 children)

I foresee this becoming a trend

[–] betterdeadthanreddit@lemmy.world 55 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Then you start hiding real bodies once people get used to the trend.

Among other things I believe the are carrion feeders, so that makes sense.

My favorite episode was always the one where she found that fresh deer carcass after the long winter.

Did she eat that too?

[–] TastyWheat@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

Nah just chewing her fingernails

There are Facebook stone painting groups. They leave stones ranging from kitch to decent marked with the FB group and postcode and members are encouraged to pick some up and leave them along the trail on their next hike. I wonder if realistic gruesome ones have appeared...

DDG image search (with the major AI slop site filtered out) so you don't have to open FB

This pic is pretty old and it hasn’t happened yet. But I mean, be the change and all that.

[–] FaceDeer@fedia.io 38 points 1 day ago (4 children)

Many years ago I came across a quarter that someone had nailed onto the sidewalk. In case someone's looking for a less disturbing but still fun easter egg to leave for future people.

[–] Postmortal_Pop@lemmy.world 43 points 1 day ago (2 children)

If you use aquarium silicone adhesive, they won't be damaged, the adhesive is weather proof, and the silicone gives a flex and wiggle that prevents sheering. We had a dime stuck to our porch for 8 years and when it finally came up, it was because the concrete had eroded underneath it.

My dad taught that one to me in high school. He stuck $1.50 in random change to the ground in front of the soda machine at the apartments he was groundskeeper for. On slow days he'd sit and watch the local kids try desperately to get a free soda with money they can't pick up.

[–] Grass@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 day ago

Cursed. I love it. Even if someone did get it it would be well earned too.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 day ago

You’d think the local kids would know better.

It occurs to me this would work better at a motel.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Nailed? Glue might be better. Like a gorilla glue or epoxy resin.

[–] FaceDeer@fedia.io 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I feel like glue wouldn't last as long. I have no idea how long the nail was, but if it's a couple of inches deep I have no idea how you'd be able to get it off without an angle grinder. With glue you can chip it off, or use solvent, or a blowtorch.

[–] Axolotl_cpp@feddit.it 3 points 21 hours ago

With epoxy resin it's not going to come off without making you look like a crazy dude - which then would be totally my mission

[–] ivanafterall@lemmy.world 4 points 22 hours ago

Glue the finger rock to the ground, got it.

[–] unitedwithme@lemmy.today 15 points 1 day ago

Salesmen at a local car dealership would super glue quarters to the parking lot. The porters and/or customers would always try to pick them up, and it brought us so much joy to watch.

I hope a 1,000 yrs from now this same finger rock resurfaces on the interwebs 6.6.0.6 and scares the crap outta some cyberpunk kids cause they found it on some trail.

[–] mech@feddit.org 10 points 1 day ago (1 children)

1000 years from now, archeologists will dig it up and conclude it was likely used for ritual purposes.

1000 years from now the paint will be gone and it will be more interesting to geologists than archaeologists - assuming there are any -ologists (or humans) left at that point.

Yes, but in this context, "kind" have a different meaning so you can't use the contracted informal version of "kind of". It's like instead of saying

"oh how kind of you to hold the door for me"

You say: "oh how kinda you to hold the door for me"

It just doesn't make sense.

[–] ddplf@szmer.info 7 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

What kinda shrooms are you on right now?

[–] Atomic@sh.itjust.works 1 points 21 hours ago (3 children)

By all means, tell me how I'm wrong. I'd love to know

[–] ddplf@szmer.info 6 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

It's kinda like words have vastly different meanings depending on the context.

[–] Atomic@sh.itjust.works -3 points 17 hours ago (2 children)

Yes. That's kinda my point. And in the context of human kind. We refer to it as "my kind of people" in writing.

It shows that people don't read books anymore.

[–] milk_steak@lemmy.world 2 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

used in writing to represent an informal way of saying "kind of"

Both ways are acceptable in writing depending on context. If you read books as much as you claim you'd realize there isn't a universal set of rules all authors need to follow.

[–] Atomic@sh.itjust.works 1 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

Please... Read the examples they give you in your link. It's very obvious which "kind of" they refer to.

The sequence of words are the same but the meaning is not.

When you say "my kind of people" you are talking about your kin.

Look, you are free to write however you want. I really don't care. I just find it sad that people don't know how or which words to use.

[–] ddplf@szmer.info 2 points 15 hours ago

I was kinda sorry to see him go.

Sorry was very kind to see him go, indeed!

[–] ddplf@szmer.info 1 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

Yes! I find it very sweet that you've seen through your errors and openly admit it! :^)

[–] Atomic@sh.itjust.works 0 points 15 hours ago

Yikes... if that's what you gathered from my comment. I feel sorry that your educational system failed you.

[–] ieatpwns@lemmy.world 3 points 19 hours ago

its almost like language is subjective

[–] HugeNerd@lemmy.ca 1 points 17 hours ago

you trippin' bro? you sound kinda off

[–] zikzak025@lemmy.world 2 points 19 hours ago* (last edited 19 hours ago) (1 children)

kinda is just another way to say "kind of"

"How kind (nice) of you" and "My kind (sort) of people" are both appropriate uses of "kinda". I hear it used more for the latter than the former, to be honest.

Also, it's casual language anyways, so why even try to bring grammar into it, much less while being so confidently wrong?

[–] Atomic@sh.itjust.works 1 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

I see, so when you're complimenting people you say "that's kinda you"?

Or would you say "that's kind of you"?

Feel free to say it out loud and let me know

[–] zikzak025@lemmy.world 3 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

"Mighty kinda ya" would not be out of place where I live, no. A dated expression as a whole, maybe, but spoken with a casual flow, that's how it comes out.

I suppose one could also write it as "kind o' ya" but "kind o'" is what is being truncated into "kinda"

[–] Atomic@sh.itjust.works 1 points 15 hours ago

What we say and how it's written are two very different things.

In Swedish we have plenty of words that are pronounced identically, but they are spelled differently.

English is not much different. Take "you're" and "your". The pronounciations are almost identical, and in many dialects they are identical.
