Well yeah I guess you’re not wrong? Now that I think about it, buying twitter with his own Tesla shares was probably probably the dumbest thing he did so far. Hope he pays for it. With his 🧠🔫.
The original novel and movie MASH are worth a look, even if you’ve seen the show.
In the original version, Frank Burns is a decent surgeon, not a stooge like on TV. What makes him hated is his arrogance. If a patient lives it’s because Frank is a great doctor, and if they die it’s God’s will.
Sorry, maybe I’m stupid. But could you send me the name of the movie in DM? I know you only left out a *. But I can’t find anything. I’m an actual idiot tbh.
I’m not the guy, and this isn’t a PM. But the movie/book/tv show is called MAS*H.
Edit: Lemmy doesn’t seem to like the proper spelling and autocorrects it. It’s called MASH, with asterisks between the letters. (Acronym for Mobile Army Surgical Hospital)
One at each end of a letter, word or phrase does italics. Two does bold, three does bold italaics.
Hence, m * a * s * h treats the A as italics, (MAS*H)and the single one after s as an individual *
If you want to do it where it visually works, you have to use the \ to escape the asterisk
Iirc, to get m*a*s*h you slap the backspace in front of each asterisk, but I can’t be sure, so I may need to edit this a few times until I get it right, then edit in the correct process

Funny thing. When I posted I saw it as I wrote it [three asterisks]. When I went back to view it it was MAS asterisk H. When I went to edit it I saw the original three asterisks.
Hitler could have won WW2 at Dunkirk. He didn’t want the army to get all the credit, so he held them back so the air force could finish the job.
Lyndon Johnson was one of the best political minds of his time; he decided that he could win in Vietnam with one major push.
You can be really smart and incredibly dumb at the same time.

I see that a lot in MAGoo circles.

Oh thank you so much, I was confused by the asterisk but apparently it wasn’t even necessary. Most confusing asterisk ever tho haha.
I wish I could tip you. Have a nice day!
Asterisks are used in markdown.
One at each end of a letter, word or phrase does italics. Two does bold, three does bold italaics.
Hence, m * a * s * h treats the A as italics, (MAS*H)and the single one after s as an individual *
If you want to do it where it visually works, you have to use the \ to escape the asterisk
Iirc, to get m*a*s*h you slap the backspace in front of each asterisk, but I can’t be sure, so I may need to edit this a few times until I get it right, then edit in the correct process
Edit: yup! \ in front of each asterisk does it.
OP here. The interwebs is weird
It really is. But don’t stress it. I found it. And it was a good suggestion. Don’t beat yourself up over that.
I’m glad you like the suggestion.

Who knows how this stuff works?
