There was a 32 minute period from initial text to the first response, and then the whole thing was over by minute 3.
That certainly didn't kill an hour. That's like 35 minutes. Something's not right.
I'd go so far as to say OP is a liar. I bald faced full lipped green eyed strong jawed curly haired liar who broke my heart and will do so again.
I noticed that too but I think the meme is constructed by juxtaposing a twitter post making the claim about how much time it would kill onto a text of someone testing the claim on their friend, so the twitter person turns out to be wrong but no fault should be applied to the text convo.
Screenshot of a text convo in the screenshot of a Twitter post in a post on Lemmy- I'm holding you to account reallykindasorta. This rests solely on your broad, muscular shoulders. Quite frankly there's no way to wash your rugged yet tender hands of this mess, and I for one won't stand for it.
They told me the devil would be beautiful.
I really have no idea what you're on about, but I like your vibes 🤙
I certainly perpetuated the myth by sharing it. In that case I’m going to defend it and say that this single text anecdote is an outlier and that, on average, this question would take an hour to resolve (including clarifications about weapons and such).
lemmy needs this energy
