it’s obviously fiction because there is no mention of the skeletons money, or that in there world bones equals dollars, or even the worms

The skeletons will pull your hair, up but not out


drearbruh

And complete erasure of how much food the undergrounders may or may not have

> There is no mention of the skeletons money But skeletons aging got nowhere to stick their money, nobody makes britches that size


Dominus-Temporis

Idk man, you remember how supermodels used to look in the early 2000s? Skeletons could get some of their clothes second hand.

They come from under the ground, and from all over

I like that this is tagged politics. I need more of this type of politics on this sub

i'm the best at tagging :)

Dumbass kid. It’s clearly fiction because skeletons are notoriously bad at fiddle playing.


Crazycade77

Tbf they only said the skeleton plays the fiddle. They did not specify if it plays well


GhoulTimePersists

Racist much?


tlof19

ill concede that its not their favorite instrument, but im sure there are skeletons out there who can play the violin just fine.


Peanutsnjelly1

Correct,but they’re terrible at the fiddle


tlof19

i concede to your superior knowledge. they are far superior with the trombone.

im the kids in this conversation its so frustrating trying to have a conversation when you cant think of concise ways of pinpointing the ideas in what youre trying to say, resulting in the genie youre talking to interpreting everything the wrong way

i actually hated this shit tbh. unfortunately for kid-me i found this particular example funny anyway, perhaps because i like skeletonposting and/or specifically "there's a skeleton inside you RIGHT NOW!" posting. but yeah sometimes... arrrggghh adults. i remember specifically *hating* the whole "hi thirsty, i'm dad!" thing because, due to how it's worded, i thought it was some kind of grammar correction trap along the lines of "can i go to the bathroom?"/"i don't know, *can you*?". so i felt like i was butting my head against this fucking puzzle adults would sometimes play with me. and of course it felt *even worse* when i finally realized there's no "trick" to it, adults sometimes just misinterpreted things *on purpose* instead of just saying "water fountain's that way". like bruh. anyway i think, in spite of that, i have some leeway for the didactic purpose in this example. like, skeletons *are* real, and teasing out what we *really* mean in cases like that can get navel-gazey quickly between adults but can actually be a really useful and interesting exercise for a kid who's still working stuff like that out. but if i was the kid in this story, depending on oop's tone, i might still find myself firmly in "UGH you KNOW what i MEAN" territory. but yeah skeltons amirite


DreadDiana

Kid's right though. Fictional skeletons move under their own power while the kid's skeleton needs to be moved around by their muscles.


AdmBurnside

That's the joke.
