Part of me wants to know if the author has deliberately set up the time to make it so anyone trying this would start their year very disappointed, but this is the internet, that would never happen … right?

You could try it at 11:49:35 tonight, and report back

Or at xx:49:35 and see if it’s right on the hour when it happens at any hour of the day

Or just see if the kiss happens at timestamp 10:25 in the episode.

What a bovine moment, absolutely mootiful. A tail as old as time, just hope the moment isn’t seen as too horny or that they don’t milk it too much.

Captain’s log, Stardate 43153.7. We are departing the Lemmy instance. We leave behind a being capable of producing extraordinarily corny strings of puns. I am not certain if she should be praised or condemned. Only that she should be left alone.

Just to let you know my pronouns aren’t he. Thank you. Please feel free to use any neutral or feminine leaning pronouns instead.

I’m too scared to read this comment because it might contain more puns

SweetCitrusBuzz@beehaw.org on 27 Dec 22:40 collapse

It doesn’t.

He’s a man of special punscience. ice cream truck music plays

Oh, I forgot that this week is when we get an influx of “If you start X at Y time, Z will happen at midnight” posts.

MRW someone on Lemmy enters a thread to complain about others having fun:

Sorry! Wasn’t trying to complain, I literally just forgot that this type of post existed because they only show up for like a week before the new year.

In which media format? Stupid Paramount+ is going to have its stupid “not commercials” at the beginning of episodes, which might bork the timing.

Plus it’s going to fail to run smoothly, if the app doesn’t decide to crash four times.

Also, little-known fun fact: the cow is a full Lieutenant.

If the cow’s tongue tastes as good while the cow is still alive as it does when it’s been cooked into taco meat, I wouldn’t mind kissing a cow. 🤷🏻‍♂️
