I don't have a friend with a ship...

[–] db2@lemmy.world 11 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

No no no, the friend is the ship.

We can make one! My life's dream has always been drunkenly sailing an old timey pirate ship with cannons and shit through the Great Lakes, boarding yachts to loot whatever we can find, then sinking them with cannon fire and making the rich prisoners walk the plank. Possibly making them wear those little ducky arm flotation things before hand.

We could even wear those full body black latex skeleton costumes that glow in the dark and awesome pirate hats.

No you misunderstood: this is a friend that is a ship.

Growing up I heard conflicting reports on how to be a winner. Nike said "Just Do It!" and the government said "Just Say No!" Since Nike was cool I assumed they meant smoking and drugs, and since the government was boring I assumed they meant being responsible, working, and paying taxes.

So to make sure I stay a winner I always just do drugs, and say no to the people who tell me to stop and get a job.

D.A.R.E. was an acronym apparently. (And I guess it wasn't "drugs are really excellent") I thought I was being dared to do drugs.

And I'm no chicken.

Haha the cops one reminds me of a couple weeks ago…

I took the train without tapping my card (omg I know!)

A bunch of cops were blocking the exit when I got off checking people’s cards.

The only way out is through.

So I hand one of them my card, he taps his little machine and hands it back. I see the little wheel is still spinning and just walk off, normally, but maybe a little quickly. 😆

If my friend ships? Ship what?

I find it easier to be unbearable. Then everyone walks away from me!
