Droppie [infosec] 🐨
it amuses me, quite a lot, how comparatively often it happens when some peep requests to Follow me, so i check out their profile & posting history, & if i thus form a view they might not be entirely monstrous 🫢️ i approve them. then, some days go by, & i sometimes see some of said peeps in various timelines... i then notice they've hitherto stopped Following me. what goes thru the minds of these peeps? don't they check out my profile & posts prior to requesting the Follow, to avoid nasty surprises later? how can they just go in blind, & only afterwards then realise just wot a mega loony whingeing weirdarse i be? 🤯️🤪️🤷♀️️😂️
Dgar@MsDropbear42 well, at first you look all floofy and cuddly and fren-shaped… then one discovers that there’s claws, and the teeth… and suddenly your finding half-eaten tourists laying around… not saying it’s you, I’m certainly not blaming anyone… but if you’re not used to living with Australian wildlife, it can be a bit of a shock.
@dgar that's fantastic! 😂🤣
Hugs4friends ♾🇺🇦 🇵🇸😷@MsDropbear42 They might have fluffy clouds moving through their minds, or a stiff breeze. I got into the habit on dead bird, of looking at people's profiles and tweeting habits, before following.
Looking for explanations…No accounting for people mindlessly following anyone & everyone, only to discover that some of us ain’t mindless!
Julius Mäkinen@MsDropbear42 Isn't that one of the suggestions for new accounts to fill their feed?
Follow pretty much everything, and curate what you see by unfollowing. I'm still going with that mindset somewhat by following, unfollowing, muting and unmuting often and based on single toots. :3
@JMkinen well, that's just really weird! 😮🤯🤷♀️ i cannot think that way at all.
Jude🇵🇸@MsDropbear42 Side note: thankyou for restoring my faith in humanity by spelling whingeing correctly! 👏
@sister_ratched well, i mean, we have chatted many times on this common interest... 😜🤭
@MsDropbear42 Yes, but I still twitch when I see it correctly spelled. 🤪
@sister_ratched oh noes! all this time my attempted fastidiousosity with grandma n zpelink has in fact been traumatising you -- i despair at my inhumanity, & can but apologize 😜
@MsDropbear42 Keep up the good work darls!
@sister_ratched cannot adequately describe the severity of the psychological trauma incurred in drafting that reply. totes antithetical impulses... pathological need for satirical silliness, vs anal-retentivity over spelling. nightmare!
@MsDropbear42 Poor Droppie, it's a serious and stressful business. Priorities!
Mikee@sister_ratched @MsDropbear42 thanks droppeie. Y'all done wordy goods.

Here's my conundrum: I have often used the spelling choices in podcast descriptions as a first indicator of general nationality. As in an 's' rather than a 'z' in a word etc. But now it means nothing! Bloody annoying actually.

@cheryanne @MsDropbear42 Grrrrrr..... the seppos have gone global. 😡
@sister_ratched @cheryanne we rooly know the fight is lost once they're... zeppos 😱
John Smith@sister_ratched @cheryanne @MsDropbear42 I learnt my English growing up in England. As a young student I had to use the Oxford dictionary in which the Z is used far more than many folk assume.
Kristaps Liepins@MsDropbear42 Sometimes it's not so much what the person posts but the intensity.
@MsDropbear42 maybe they are just too young to appreciate all those Hitchhikers and Python references... 😉
