Big Bird: “The next letter is G. God is for God, who doesn’t exist, and if God doesn’t exist, that means everything is permitted…”
Fuck me… That’s a real word.
Sometimes frogs are brown.
They may have dyuers coloures.
Wait, what do you mean it’s nameless? It’s called Ennui? Is that not it’s name?
The combination is ennui. Ennui is a conglomeration of despair inducing feelings, among which is the nameless horror.
Ah, ok. I thought it was an umbrella term, not a conglomerate.
Maybe more a consortium, or a concern. Definitely not a corporation; it’s not publicly traded.
I thought it was just boredom but in a pretentious and French way…
The word is loaned 1:1 from the french word for boredom
Yeah, exactly that.
It’s literally just a French word.
The pretentiousness comes from the ones appropriating it. So go get impaled on a fucking chainsaw after jumping off a building for your racism against the French for simply existing, you absolutely numbfuckingly idiotic cretin.
Va prendre un café
The French, truly an oppressed populace.
It’s literally just a French word.
Yeah, there’s no need for the redundancy, really; if you say “French” you can omit “pretentious”, it’s already implied.
Fuck off you xenophobic dog.
Did anyone else automatically read this in a french accent?
Dude… y u so mad?
This u being xenophobic?https://lemmy.world/comment/16896329
Because stating true shit that happens in that country is xenophobic?
How about when you buffoons started calling french fries freedom fries? Or had your president order McDonald’s in the white house? Or maybe that time you got indoctrinated to worship a flag as a kid, only to then watch as your classmates got shot to death because “muh guns”?
Literally all of it happens, but god forbid the french use a word in their own fucking language. Go fuck yourself, fucking clown.
The fries are Belgian…

Then your country is twice as stupid as I thought, because you have a national holiday to French fries, and you called them French fries out of idiocy:
“Let us return for a moment to the horror of the First World War. Europe struggles under the occupation. British and American soldiers finally push back the Germans after a hard-fought battle in the trenches. A lot of hungry mouths to fill. At the Belgian front, the soldiers learn about chips. Due to the chaos and confusion, and because they hear French words being used all around them, they accidentally assume they are in France… Result: another adjective that will forever define the international image of our snack. ‘Tastes good, let’s call them ‘French Fries’ folks!’”

Lmao whataboutism, ur trolling but ok here https://www.google.com/search?q=xenophobia
“Xenophobia is the fear or dislike of anything that is perceived as being foreign or strange.”
So you getting all up on my face about using a NORMAL word in MY language doesn’t qualify?
Yet stating REAL facts about YOUR country does?
I’ll admit I wasn’t aware American exceptionalism and self-delusional egocentrism went that far. Clowns all the way down.
Sidenote you’re too hypocritical to even grasp: The whataboutism begins when you look at my comment history for ad hominem ways to dismantle my argument without directly addressing it. But I guess I shouldn’t expect that much cognition from someone who’s clearly brain-dead.
Pal, all the “racism” you speak of is only in your mind. My comment at no time was meant to be denigrating to the French,
I mentioned French because I know ennui is a French word, which I understood was used by philosophers to speak of a kind of “transcendental” and therefore “pretentious” boredom. So no, I didn’t say the French were pretentious, if you thought I was.
Sorry if i wasn’t clear enough.
Frogs aren’t happy…I had a frog in my back yard last year for 2 weeks. He just screamed bloody murder the entire time. Just hours and hours of screaming at 2am.
I don’t know if he hopped away, or if he got eaten by a predator, but I feel like I appriciate the circle of life a little bit more knowing that fuckers probably dead.
He wasn’t necessarily unhappy. He was probably horny, though.
That’s a good stratagy. I’m going to go to the bar this weekend and just stand next to women. Then just start screaming as if I’m being stabbed, while a basket of puppies burn in a fire. All with an erection.
What could possibly go wrong?
Nothing like empiricism.
What could possibly go wrong?
Lots of watery wet frog eggs in a pond near your bedroom window.
N is Neville who died of ennui
