"bless your heart" is a versatile phrase that has never been used in a positive way. It sounds positive but it runs the gamut from "you got what you deserved" to "you dumb poo poo".

I have only ever used it in a nice way and I feel like that passive-aggressive reading is a relatively recent development that everyone just assumes is true because they like the idea of it being true, and so in a way it became true. Anyway, content:

I spent hours in Black and White training my creature (the stupid cow) to learn the highest level, hardest to learn spell, which was a meteor storm.
Somehow, my creature tied this spell to other behaviour, specifically when it needed to poo (something I had already tied to 'poo on the fields')

End result, any time my creature needed to do his business, he'd run across the map to my farms, poo poo, and then call down Armageddon. I did not find a solution to this

Nah it has always had multiple meanings both positive and negative. It wasn't right for polite society women to be vulgar and all, so the doublespeak insults became a thing. If it only was negative then you'd never be able to get away back handing it to someone in public.

By my hand, I will take you from this godforsaken internet
Deep South culture has been steeped in decorum almost as much as racism, there's absolutely been an underhanded meaning to just about every "precious" Southern phrase since time immemorial

Related: everyone should watch Steel Magnolias, both because it's a great movie despite the super stilted dialogue and because it's a great example of that sort of thing

It is only as racist as the speaker. There were plenty of not black people cotton farmers who used that phrase and I've had liberal as hell blue haired old white women use literally that phrase with me and around me.

And just to cut this off at the head, a poo poo ton of stuff from the south is racist as hell, or not, depending on who is the one saying it. Like, a whole bunch of Southern culture is wrapped up in the inescapable racist foundations of the region, even if some of it has transcended in part or in whole from that past.

Hell for all I know that pea-picking variant may have been some old woman's conscious decision to move past some racism she saw. Living in the south and using the sayings is basically playing hot potato racism anyways.

I like my fried chicken spicy and my watermelon fresh from the vine.

Watermelons do not continue to ripen off of the vine, so for supermarket distribution they cut them off a little early so they won’t rot in the ensuing freight time, but they never reach their full delicious potential because of it. I’m sad I didn’t get to grow watermelon this year because we are putting the house on the market. Will have to go to the farmers’ market and hope for the best.

I wish I had a funny quote to go here

My mom just told my wife the other day that you should look for watermelons with a yellow spot because that means the ripened in the field more. I don't care for watermelon so this information is of no use to me but maybe it can be a benefit to you and your life (if it's even true; my mom believes a lot of poo poo)

It's called a field spot and it indicates the watermelon has lain in the field (and by extension ripened) long enough to form it :eng101:

H.P. Hovercraft's current title: "there's a world that we know nothing about, that we can only imagine... and that is the world of books"

chaos magick gets loving buckwild and this is relatively sane and tame as that goes

like basically from what I understand, the idea is that you're hacking reality by drawing/writing "sigils" and imbuing them with energy (usually by tripping balls on acid or shrooms and jacking off on the sigil until it's encrusted with highly magical spooge)

this sounds like a bunch of complete ridiculous bullshit, but if you're much of a comics guy you're probably familiar with Grant Morrison. Grant Morrison has been doing this poo poo forever and has had some really really strange poo poo happen to him as a result of it, which kind of inclines me to believe there's something here

the thing that's always made me kind of go :stare: about chaos magic is

in The Invisibles, Grant Morrison made a character named King Mob who (if I'm understanding this correctly) was basically created as a sigil, for shits and giggles more than anything since he wasn't taking the idea incredibly seriously

his life then proceeded to reflect King Mob's in bizarre ways. GMo writes King Mob as having everything come up his way? everything comes up GMo for a while. GMo writes King Mob as getting hosed over? GMo gets hosed over. King Mob gets gravely wounded in the story and nearly dies? GMo gets hospitalized with loving sepsis out of nowhere.

it might just be one big coincidence, or it might work the other way (though by Morrison's account, his life would change to reflect what he wrote and not vice-versa), or some random bald guy who writes comics basically achieved loving CHIM. i know which one of those that basically looks like to me.
