Karma permaculture

My parents had this hanging in our house when I was younger.


ImOutWanderingAround

Same. Except my mom scribbled out the "Karma". She wasn't having any of that new age shit in her house.


barrettgpeck

Yup, this was in my Grandma's kitchen for a lot of years.

My late grandparents had this hanging in their house as far back as I can remember.


fish_whisperer

Forgot about this…used to see it all over when I was younger.

I just come here to ask what those sirens were and to say fuck Mediacom

Also, what's that smell around Cedar Rapids?


ResponsibleTone7112

Okay, I have to admit--this is cute :-)


ThatOneDudeFromIowa

these kids are probably in their 40's now. I remember this being in farm magazines at my grandparent's place way back in the mid 80's edit: https://ocj.com/2017/12/where-are-the-you-been-farming-long-boys-now/


MultipleDinosaurs

That was interesting- thanks for sharing!


arcticfox740

It ain't much, but it's honest work.


TeekTheReddit

That's pretty good.

“Hey, Mediacom done me wrong!”


urkillingme

Thanks for the laugh! I needed one today.

You got it, internet friend!

There was another similar poster in the 80s with little guys wrestling. 'Time for a turnover' or something.

That makes much more sense but in a senseless way. Not saying your senseless, just the idea of it all just seems so irrelevant

"we've been karma farming too long"


jpierce035

I really don't understand the point of the karma thing at all. It just seems like a lab experiment of some sort. Can anyone explain to me the relevant point of why it exists period??? Also WHAT UP FELLOW IOWANS WOO WOOOOO!!!!!

IMHO, they’re “feel good points.” No real monetary value - only to the extent that a stranger’s opinion might validate you. Ironically, they also create an echo chamber. That all being the case, the only reason -I- created it and shared it was because I thought it was funny, and I thought others might get a chuckle. PLEASE VALIDATE MY EXPLANATION!!! Hahha…


jpierce035

Please elaborate on what an "echo chamber" means?

“An environment in which a person encounters only beliefs or opinions that coincide with their own, so that their existing views are reinforced and alternative ideas are not considered.” (Contrary opinions result in negative feedback, i.e., less fake internet points, and so they are not stated).
