Not sure what instances your chosen communities live on, but lemmy is very much alive for me

And there’s a solid 50% chance that I will not answer that call

I mean, sometimes my wife has thrown something extra smelly in the garbage while cooking and wants me to take the quarter-full bag out so the house doesn’t reek.

I should absolutely be asked to take the trash out in that case, and she shouldn’t need a whole story for said request. She frequently does because that’s just her communication style. Lots of extras. Mucho frustrating for me.

But it’s probably just an example for illustration.
