6·5 days agoI have kids myself, but I don’t feel ashamed of letting them know that I don’t always have the answers or that sometimes I like to jump the trampoline for fun.
Adults who seem like they know everything and act responsible all the time actually seem “juvenile” in my opinion.
They don’t really get it, you know? Like they got to that level of life by following expectations and then stopped developing past that and just keep trotting along. Some people get stuck there while others “soften up” when they get grandchildren and less responsibility or whatever.
People mature in different paces, but the whole “being grown up” is definitely just an optional phase.
I’ve read that the most fires at gas stations (related to refueling) happen when somebody enters the car while fueling. I don’t know if it’s true, but it has a point.
The potential static electricity from getting into the seat and the dilution of the gas in the air at that position is a more ignitable combination than holding a lit cigarette right at the nozzle. The draft from opening the door will make different dilutions, so it’s pretty sure that it is ignitable at some point around that position.
The risk of explosion is quite low at the pump. It’s actually worse if they step away to smoke, because depending on wind there will be a position somewhere in the vicinity of the pump where the gas is easier to ignite. Firing up a lighter there could be bad.
Anyway. There’s plenty of other good reasons not to smoke at a gas station.
5·5 days agoYes sure. I am speaking in general. Half the time I read that community, I only realize where I am when I see the mods calling other people out in the comments. It happens in every single thread, which is why I think they ought to make it more visible in every single post. It’s a great community and I do read it occasionally, so I don’t want to block it, just because I’m not allowed to comment myself.
That community hits “front page” quite often. It’s easy to miss the community name (and rules) unless you pay attention.
It would be nice if there was a brother community that had the same topic, and a default text in all posts explaining this and redirecting the men to that.
Skateboarding. It has enough variety to keep it interesting for that long. Unlike many other sports, there’s an infinite number of tricks to learn. Even if you’re old.
Are they still around? I heard they ran away. They ran so far away.
It’s not a reference to any particular drive. It’s just that Germans drove tanks into Poland at the start of WW2. The dual meaning of the word “tank” is the pun.
Get a hold of the janitor. As simple as it might seem, this is not something you want to do yourself in a multistory building.
You’ll need to have access to the boiler room and the topmost radiator. There’s probably a good reason why you don’t.
If you open that screw, you’ll only let more air into the system and potentially get a lot of smelly water on your floor.
Maybe we shouldn’t have any -isms as totalitarian systems.
Some things should be communistic. Healthcare, infrastructure, basic needs.
Some things should be democratic: Municipality planning, international policies
Some things should have full personal liberty: Arts, religion, relationships.
It’s from this video:
Is the ring holders poop also invisible?
Obviously it’s invisible while inside the person, but what happens if they make a little turd? Does it become visible in mid air or does it work like the clothes?
What if they make a poo poo in the middle of a street while invisible, then walk away to a different town. What happens if the ring is then taken off?
“Wash at or bellow 50°”
OK. I choose to bellow 50°
You’re a slacker if it’s not 100% LinkedIn.
None. I actually hope for something entirely different.
Same.
I figure I won’t die as long as I kep skating. Skate or die, right?
When someone dies in Mario multiplayer there’s a short pause in the gameplay. It really fucks up everyone else’s timing.
A brain itself doesn’t feel physical pain. That requires a nervous system and pain receptors of which the brain has none. Brain surgery is done with only local anesthesia for the skin and scalp.
We also know that braindead people don’t suddenly start creating brain waves even if the body gets mechanical resparation and pulse. It’s quite literally “off”. So, I guess the creation of a dead brain won’t feel anything or start thinking about anything by itself.
The question is what inputs they give these artificial brains. It’ll think that, and that will be it’s “sensory” input. Whether that can cause some emergent brain waves that could be interpreted as emotion or other stuff is impossible to say. I doubt it.
