How is that people in positions of power often seem to have no sense of humour... Or at the very least their humour is completely different to mine... Is it just an age/generational thing?

Aliko Dangote seems to be a real classy guy:

Wait, the address is "street, house number, Brasil"? I guess he missed 2 levels of data hierarchy there.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

I think he don't need to mention the full address just to show him he know where he live. Street address is enough.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

Yeah, it's a bit odd....

Do I have your permission to cross-post that into [email protected] ? ( feel free to do so yourself as well, otherwise)

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 years ago (1 children)

You don't need to ask for my permission as I don't own that content, it just something that I found when googling the man.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

Cool! Thanks!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

Ah I missed that sub, thanks for the link!

[–] [email protected] 17 points 2 years ago

I believe it's a self-esteem issue. Someone that needs to enforce beliefs onto others could be very much self-aware of people 'laughing at them'. Had my fair share of colleagues like this from a wide range of age groups and cultures, unfortunately.

The amount of anger in his response is part of what makes this hilarious. Major "I Think You Should Leave" energy.

Here's the thing you should know about its citizens:

They really support software piracy

They are friendly

Feel free to post your favourite Osvaldo12 related posts/memes on the newly formed [email protected]

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 years ago (1 children)

hot damn! i am the first to open your page thru lemmy.world and behold i now understand just a little bit more about how "federating" works.

good luck with your /c

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago

lol Thanks for stopping by! Just had to be done, I couldn't find any other osvaldo12 /c out there.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

Is he like a new Ken M?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I didn't even know he had a subreddit, much less a lemmy community. Subbed.

Is he still actively shitposting, though?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

I haven’t seen it anymore, but he did a few posts last year from what I remember. I don’t have twitter anymore for that. Maybe I’ll create a bot for that.

[–] [email protected] 27 points 2 years ago (1 children)

long live to Osvaldo12 wherever he is now

[–] [email protected] 19 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Even though osvaldo12 uses the internet, he still lives in his home.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

of course, but I don't know where's the geographic location he's right now, maybe he moved

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

He moves about at the beat of his heart.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago
[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Even though home is where the heart is, the house or apartment of osvaldo12 does not change location when he leaves it. This in spite of the fact that he never goes anywhere without his heart.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 2 years ago

It’s so dumb but I love it. I’m going to need to borrow that line.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 2 years ago (1 children)

The only subreddit I am missing. :( Osvaldo

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using an URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: [email protected]

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 years ago
[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Excellent bot! Is there a command to summon it when it's needed and doesn't automatically appear?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

Yes! We need a spell to summon the this beast for the greater good.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

This link just tells me nothing is here, I'm on wefwef if that matters.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I'm on wefwef and I get a few posts. It's likely the instance you are on hasn't federated with that one yet.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Could be! Let me know if that’s the case, I’m the owner of the fancywhale instance

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Osvaldooooo.

Subbed.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 2 years ago

someone invite osvalo to lemmy.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

It really depends on where in Africa, as in some countries, it literally carries the death penalty... Africa is a big and diverse place.

It's a joke. Jokes work by setting up an expectation, then subverting it. "Why did the chicken cross the road?" You think it might to be get bugs or run away from a fox, but the answer is "to get to the other side". This joke works the same way. You think it's going to be able a common want or need that spans sexual orientations, but it has to do with night coming after the day.

Also, the politician is a humorless fuck head and is being trolled.

Neither works.

Majority disagrees.
