Tech writers: mastodon is not a proper social medium
Masto users: but we're social all the time?
Tech writers: nono. what we mean is that our advertisers can't pump money into profit like they're used to
Masto users: [swears in French]

@sargoth Engadget just called Masto the twitter killer last week....

@MCwyatt huh. I missed that one. will have to check it out. thanks. :3

@sargoth Haha, spot on. Though, I do need to learn the actual french swears. :thinking:

@sargoth because we all know that swearing in French is better than in the other languages.

@sargoth ....oh wait wrong tech writer...I'm a technical writer...carry on. Fuck those guys.

@sargoth I'm almost certain the swearing was multilingual.

@HedgeMage before anyone knows it, we will have invented new swear words, that only make sense from a multilingual perspective

@HedgeMage @sargoth We used to do that in the foreign community in Japan. You'd start speaking one language, suddenly switch to another, and before you know it you've insulted someone in two languages for being an idiot. Good times

@cunningcorvid @HedgeMage we have the home field advantage. both (all) language groups are in on it

@sargoth here's a generic French swear word : "putain de merde". You can use it whenever.

@sargoth I will be happy without advertisers and it wold be nice to keep the rest of the assholes out...
Mastodon – a lovely corner if the internet... 😊
