3·27 days agoI was playing video games with a friend while listening to music and said out loud “is this a Tom Jones cover of Burning Down the House?” and her immediate impression of the song was dead on even though she’d never heard it before
Start off confusing them with a cacophony of sound, followed by high energy, into Tom Jones shouting. Should be pretty hard to sleep through all of that
My work was matching donations at one point and Wikipedia was an option so I donated $50 + $50 of corpo money to Wikipedia at one point. They’ve never stopped asking me for more
The Breaking Bad universe. There’s a lot of shitty dudes who idolize Walter White, and then there’s the Better Call Saul shit posting that seems largely nonsensical and mostly harmless
17·2 months agoA cardboard box:
It was almost certainly spoken around a fire in a cave and has been lost to time before humans really recorded history

Oh interesting, I wonder if the cause is something else then? I do know a lot of left handed people end up learning how to do some physical activities right handed because it’s easier but I doubt that would be enough to make their right leg stronger
My assumption for this would be that the majority of humans are right-side dominant. So they tend to lead with their right foot and their right leg is probably stronger meaning they tend to take marginally larger steps on the right leading to a counterclockwise gait
Similarly to the OP, I was told in Boy Scouts that if you’re lost in the woods you need to stay where you are because if you do try to walk out you’ll likely just go in circles and be harder to find
12·3 months agoIf everyone you interact with on a daily basis can have their opinions changed by throwing money at them, then you start to believe that is just how people are. So when a bunch of people change their mind quickly you just assume they were paid to do so
Yes it’s worth it. Even the worst, most overworked public defender has spent years of their life in school, deals with a system you’ve likely never interacted with on a daily basis, and usually has some level of altruism. The reason you hear about people who win by representing themselves is because it’s very rare for them to not get trampled by the system
You can’t help someone who doesn’t want to be helped
The Magic:the Gathering community is constantly bickering about what cards to be banned/unbanned. A lot of modern (modern as in the format, not present day) players agree a card from Titan needs to go but they disagree over which. Personally I think Amulet of Vigor needs to go. If you do that then energy probably needs a ban and I think goblin bombardment would make them weaker against removal and board wipes, though Phlage, Titan of Fire’s Fury is also a good option because it’s egregious with Arena of Glory
7·4 months agoI agree that he didn’t have a plan for 2 primary reasons: Saiyans as a whole are very bad at planning beyond the problem in front of them, and that Toriyama also planned very little of Dragon Ball ahead of time
In universe the explanation I’d give is that while Namek is bigger than Earth it still took Frieza “five minutes” for his blast to actually destroy Namek. Vegeta hadn’t even gone Super Saiyan yet. Even if his blast did connect and destroy the planet (unlikely) he would have had plenty of time to get to a space ship and fuck off
No win, you know… except potentially saving another human’s life
4·5 months agoI take the Supreme Court’s line on shitposts. They’re hard to define, but I know it when I see it
They had a pretty limited musical run (and a 1 season IFC show) but Garfunkel and Oates had some funny songs
