That is the wrong facial expression. That man would be laughing his ASS off. Like ribs hurting, can’t breath laughing.

Who the hell has a counter-clockwise corkscrew!?
Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 8 months ago
Coriolis Effect. Must be a Southern Hemisphere corkscrew.

Those cursed left handeds. We should burn them at the stake.
moistclump@lemmy.world 8 months ago
Good catch! I had to stare at it for a minute picturing myself spinning it into a cork and it does feel like it goes the wrong way. (Not righty righty).

The Curse of Knowledge actually relates to educated people trying to communicate with people under the assumption that everyone knows as much as they do, forgetting that the average person might not be as educated

I actually try to folks to the level of their knowledge. I had a debate with some coworkers about vaccines. I explained to them that it’s safe, thousands of studies proved they are, I also mentioned vaccines are produced just like any medicine. And yet people take paracetamol willy nilly without question but somehow treat vaccines differently; even though overusing paracetamol could lead to hearing loss as happened to my dad.
However, I admit that what got me is the mRNA vaccine technology when a colleague said there has been no human trial of it before. The technology has actually been developed for over 40 years but with strong proof of concept. But I find it hard to explain that to laypeople.

Yeah, we all know that. ;-)

But the stupid uncoursed pleb doesn’t know that.
I say curse him!
It’s for their good, and for the good of human kind.But boy do some people have high curse resistance.
Over 100%.
Literally impossible to educate (which is the first part of the cursing process).

Ok, but like… Everyone down the chain gets the joke, I don’t know what the problem is. Open your wine with the penis thing

That wine opener was purchased deliberately.
Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 8 months ago
“wine opener” alone sets the education level

Try being a geoscientist… So, so many blurry photos of rocks folks’ kids find in the backyard
Classy@sh.itjust.works 8 months ago
Hey what kind of tree is this?
Potato-quality photo of tree from 150 ft away
These people always manage to take immaculate, professional photos of their damn food or their damn kids but somehow revert to monkey when it’s time to photograph a plant

If you show a geoscientist a picture of a rock, does he still lick it?

Was an interesting read. Thanks.

That article reminded me of that politician who said women’s bodies would prevent pregnancy from rape. Clearly he had so little contact with women he confused them with ducks.
