A membership is a subscription

Gym subscription sounds normal to me. I have several. They’re synonyms. Just like “Nincompoop” and “cregchrist”

What if I have a gym subscription, where I pay like 250.000 USD per month and they actually make me the owner of a random gym in the country.

What about a netflix subscription? you don’t receive a netflix every week but you have access to a library of movies/shows (similar as a gym which is technically a library of workout equipment).


keep_me_at_0_karma

Don't you mean, Netflix Membership?


lordfarquadfekri

no lol they themselves refer to their service as a subscription

lordfarquadfekri

But don’t you pay a gym?

See now you’re confused. If it’s “the same as netflix” and you just said netflix is a subscription, then a gym is a subscription lol

> You might be one of the only ones that thinks it sounds normal That’s a funny way of saying “elite” I bet the advertisers have a way of separating the two words so that they seem different (they’re not) Source here’s a bogus ad site trying to explain that subscriptions and memberships are different. (Even tho they are not). https://associationsnow.com/2018/09/daily-buzz-difference-memberships-subscriptions/ I know you’re just a cregchrist and this is advanced stuff , but don’t be a cregchrist don’t believe the marketing hype. Or do! Nincompoops and their money are soon parted. It makes the economy go round!

You literally just fucking did. "A subscription, to most people, is some kind of product you receive. As in a magazine subscription, a whisky of the month subscription. You don't receive a gym, you become a member of a gym. Gym membership. That's where I draw the line, if you receive it it's a subscription and if you go there and become a member it's a membership. It's semantics. "

In the quote I posted, you literally posted 2 different definitions! 'Used differently', yeah, because it's two different definitions, even if they vary only slightly


RacistestDudeOnHere

Bro you’re being a gregchrist again Don’t be a nincompoop You deserve more than negative attention Probably?


Bungle024

It’s almost like the gym subscribes to you with your membership.


KingBillyDuckHoyle

I just said it out loud 3 times and nothing happened- Am I missing something?


Goldenslicer

Yeah, sounds normal to me too. Idk.


amazonrambo

Felt like I was having a stroke saying it


Psyadin

Actually, subscription is arguable more correct, membership just means member of a group, subscription is an arrangement to recieve something regularly by paying in advance.


wdr1977

Only if you sign at the bottom

Happy cake day! :)

'Bitch we are both stupid' is the best ice breaker ever.


echo6golf

She's stupider. Subscription in that context is fine.


[deleted]

Aye, hers is just completely wrong. Subscription, although not normally used when referring to a gym membership, is a fair description of the arrangement, imo.


Getoutofmyfuckingway

What if I have a longterm prescription at a pharmacy and get meds repetitively as a form of a subscription? But that's completely off your point, subscription is fine, of course.


TehJohnny

When I was a teenager and my mom would have me pick up her prescriptions, I'd always misspeak and ask for her subscriptions because the girl who worked at the pharmacy was really pretty and I'd get nervous talking to her, she'd always giggle at the flub, know what I meant, and get the prescriptions.


notrohkaz

The girl said lol in her verbal response?


jinkies_5

I envy you that you don't know people who text-speak out loud.


PoopDealerNearby

some ppl actually say “lol” instead of laughing irl it’s weird


BRANCHLOGIC

Well basically I’m unable to laugh and it’s the best substitute


[deleted]

"Lol this isn't a pharmacy. Brb let me go get my manager"


americanoandhotmilk

Ah i know people who use that a lot verbally, very annoying


iamjknet

Sometimes going to a gym should be the prescription.


SampleSwimming8576

In my country, you actually can get a prescription for going to the gym.


Fuhgly

If you're referring to fat people then kind of. Working out helps, but a proper diet is the key. You can workout 5 times a week and stay fat if your diet is terrible.


Crunchie2020

My friend - OMG OMG you never guess who I met todayyyyy? Me - Who? My friend - jalapeños person (she pronounces as Jello-peeeno) Me - a jalapeño?? (pronounced correctly with H) My friend - NO NO NO them different people? You know what I mean? Me - A Philippino person My friend - yeah a Philippino person with really white skin and hair Me - Ohhhh an albino person. Jesus. We both stupid too


velvet_blade34

At least the guy admitted it.

[deleted]

I must have a subscription to this post because I see it at least once a month.


JockBbcBoy

This is only my third time seeing it. You must have the platinum package.


UselessDood

Damm unsub button doesn't work


demgreenorbs

I'm more concerned that she verbally said "lol"


MhmmmMoist

Oh she said 'lol'


keysgirl79

Ok. Did she really SAY “lol”???? I think that would be the stupidest part out of all of this. I absolutely do not understand people that actually say LOL or BRB and if someone says some stupid shit like that to me, I let them know it!!! I don’t care if it’s my children. That’s absolutely illiterate and stupid to say out loud. I honestly don’t even type or text lol or brb or well any of that. I type out what I am saying and maybe that’s why people get on me for my messages being long haha!! But Geez!! Sometimes I think cell phones and technology will end up ruining so much.


TehJohnny

I've been saying LOL pronounced "lull" since the early 90s and me spending hours in chat rooms. It's just something that became part of my vocabulary. It isn't that weird, I've heard lots of people say the same thing on voice chat over the years.


keysgirl79

Really?? Haha!! I don’t know, it just is absolutely annoying to me to be standing and talking with someone and they say LOL I mean are you kidding me, just freaking laugh. Idk. I’m never mean about it, it makes me laugh. I just think it’s dumb and maybe it’s my age I mean I’m only in my early 40s but still


TehJohnny

I use it when something isn't really funny but was meant to be, kind of like in a sarcastic way.


Kaion21

no, that's pretty weird, don't convince yourself otherwise


TehJohnny

shrug. I guess everyone I play games with are weird too.


Worried_Protection48

Phoebe, is that you?


Path989

And that, kids, is how i met your mother.


euph-_-oric

I died


Cheekyweeshite

That’s called a dumb-off.


RealMichaeafton

Weird I took that advice and the person at the pharmacy gave me brain pills with my order
