(I am too, so.... Uhh... Hi)
Thanks, first thing to pop into my mind.
I don't want it either tbh
This is how your brain works when you've got low self esteem
It's also a humorous take if you have healthy self-esteem.
Though you do make a good point.
You're not wrong it's absolutely still funny
Yeah, I stopped caring for outside validation, funny enough. I just assume people want to undermine my mental health more, and that everything is rigged. So, I literally don't care for any opinion except my own, and any progress except how much I follow my schedule.
Some people are a lot, I don't want them.
That's encouraging.
All of my exes told me I was a lot, shortly before dumping me.
She thinks you are not many things. She just wants one thing.
It is a comment on complexity+quantity of what she wants, not significance.
Gosh!
She thinks you are not many things
The Buddha would disagree.
She doesn't want a lot for Christmas.
Except poor people to stop complaining about the economic crisis preventing them from buying Sephora bullshit and protesting capitalism.
I mean, fair.
But if anyone of us showed up to her house wrapped I bet she’d say different
She's right tho...
SHE'S DEFROSTING AGAIN!!!
Mariah thinks she could gobble me up in one go and still have room for Christmas Dinner 😀👍
i cant lie i fw this song. it use to be my fav xmas song
i used to hate this song and it was a long as streak of like 10 years. idk if its because shits fucked this year but this song is actually good. I genuinely wish i knew more of her other songs.
At the end of the year your get character 13, Carey Return.
There is a German lullaby with the line "tomorrow morning, if God wants, you will wake up again" and quite a number of kids worried "what if He doesn't?"
That's honestly a terrifying idea to put in a kid's brain before they go to sleep.
The concept of most religions is absolute obedience and absence of curiosity. This " terrifying idea" is an excellent tool to form the needed mindset.
He said it was German
have you had kids? "and if you die before you sleep AND YOU BETTER SLEEP YOU LITTLE SHITS i pray the lord take your soul (because no one else wants it. i can tell)" is a fairly common sleep-deprived emotion
Isn't that a thing in English, too?
Still pretty messed up.
That's pretty metal, heh
This is even darker! The one I quoted is arguably just a filler to get enough syllables for the line. Depending on your image of God, it's just "of cause he does". Your version elaborates on the idea much more
@lugal @EfreetSK child mortality rates were pretty fucking high in earlier times. Around the time the original poem was published 40-50% of children under 15 died.
Only vaccines and modern medicine put this down to 4.2% globally in 2022, with the most developed countries reaching 0.3%
That is to say... that poem had a point.
yup. childhood mortality was so high that average lifespan was 40-ish years, but life expectancy at age 20 would be 60-70 years old.
why is it that germany produces the wierdest stuff for kids like isnt there a kids show thats just a grumpy bread loaf wishing he could die?
Bernd das Brot doesn't want to die. He just wants to be left alone and likes ingrain wallpaper
i don't see in the slightest how that is related to the post?
It's taking a song to an unintended implication. "All I want for Christmas is you" implies how important you are, not that you aren't much. And the German lullaby implies that God will wake you up, not that he might decide not to. Another commenter pointed out that "if" could also be "when" so God will wake you when he sees fit.
With music composed by Brahms.
I grew up during the Cold War, close enough to NYC that if it was bombed, I’d be fried. So this sentiment definitely had real meaning as a kid.
