    To me, this expression is appropriate when I replace facts with feelings, all the while believing my feelings are indeed facts.

    Auntie used to tell me dem feelz are not facts, they are just.....dem feelz.

    It's a fact.

    If someone gets insulted by the slang " dem feelz" then the internet may not be the best place for them.
    There's slang used all the time , woo, derp, dem feelz , and so on. Not everything is an insult. But if people enjoy playing the victim, then go for it.

    Personally, I'm insulted by the term Beast Mode. My back isn't *that* hairy.

    Yeah I normally see it in relation to a gif or video where there is emotional stuff.

    Like when a dog reacts to a soldier coming home.

    Or a dog is sleeping on the grave of its owner.

    Something positive or negative happens but it's emotional

    I think it is generally meant to point out that feelings don't change reality or that sometimes reality can be harsh regardless of how you feel about it.

    Feel whatever you want. Don't expect what's necessary to conform to your feelings, though.

    I feel like feelings should still be taken into consideration equally to facts..feelings are usually a large reason that anyone ever gains a lot of weight.

    So when facts and feelings contradict ... which wins?

    Dems very deep......so deep.

    Yes me too

    From now on when I hear beast mode, I will instantly think its a direct insult . I will take it personally ( cuz of my hairy man beast back ) and will probably write about how I've been insulted in many threads.

    Beast mode- insult
    Dem feelz:(


    Lol !

    I've always perceived it more as a commiseration. But I suppose context is always important.

    For some reason, of the two times I've seen it on this forum (2nd time was a post to my question of what woo is) both times were in a sarcastic, patronizing context...which conflicts with my traditional Internet understanding of the expressing being being mostly sincere. Hence, the question.

    If you're going to call out every phrase you see that you think is sarcastic or patronizing....

    I get the feeling that this thread and another similar one are showing thinly-veiled contempt toward members who post based upon science, rather than bolstering their post counts with relativistic "it's all good, we're all different" blather which does nobody any good. Why waste three paragraphs to say "I don't know anything about what you're asking and I've never tried it, but it's okay because, like, we're all different and, like, it might, like work for you, kwim?". Sometimes it's better to be thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.

    What's the "dem " mean?

    "Them"

    That's how West Indians say them.
