… Do you think she’s suffering from an ED to intentionally hurt others? Is she being mentally unwell at you?

I recently had someone from my reenactment group loudly call out “Damn Tar_Alcaran, I didn’t think you owned any makeup!” when I showed up in my normal clothes after work.
Uhhhh, thanks? Maybe…

Have you been to the living spaces of many male students? I can’t say I’ve dated a lot in uni, but let me summarize: living alone is only made easier by those things, it definitely doesn’t require it, and absolutely doesn’t require you being good at it.
Women aren’t excluded from this, but it’s more rare.

Having a coal mine on my roof also doesn’t really work

Good joke, but Fokker was Dutch, not German.

Option B. Portals already break a couple of laws of physics and can reverse entropy, but I like to think you should look at the speed of an object relative to the portal.

There’s being right, and being an absolute arsehole. Right now you’re both. Sometimes you need to not say a thing, even if it is correct.

- Comment on Their entire strategy was to win was force a foul and take a penalty kick 1 week ago:
Back during the Cold War, the Stasi and KGB had a strategy. You observe everything and log everything.
When someone you like breaks the rules, you see it, and you ignore it. When someone you don’t like breaks the rules, you see it and you bring the hammer down.
There is no person and no sporting event that doesn’t ever break a rule. But if you start selectively using those rules to punish one side and ignore the other, then you’re just discriminating with cameras. You’re not judging fairly anymore.

Better to get it over with at an early age
- Comment on Just as Nolan intended 1 week ago:
the most common type of IMAX nowadays is just running two 4k laser digital projectors, overlapping eachother so you get double the pixel density, at a much better contrast, and at 60fps.
Unfortunatly, that’s still less than half the resolution of the “old” 70mm horizontal film projector. But it gets rid of the absurd arc-lamp they have in the film projectors, which would be the envy of ww2 searchlight operators.

I was honestly assuming the person would be using a smartboard or large touchscreen for a presentation anyway…

Or… You can use one of the many tools that meeting software providers that lets you draw on your shared screen. I’m pretty sure Teams solved this problem in at least 2022, possibly before.

I’m a firm believer in last Thursday-ism, so I know in my heart of hearts there are at least 5 days of past

Also pretty up there is “I’d have to grow it inside my body, and then move it outside my body”.
- Comment on Anon is a rabbit 3 weeks ago:
The list of things rabbits will fuck is a lot longer than the list of things they won’t.

It sounds quite unpleasant, but maybe im thinking of different kinds of dog toys?

Ehhhh, I can understand people might hold a pretty large safety margin for “will my boss be OK with this”.
- Comment on Valid point 3 weeks ago:
Yeah, because paying by card isn’t an option everywhere in Germany. The only time I carry cash is when I visit Germany.

Netherlands.
The last time I used cash, it was because I visited Germany.

Nah. It’s just cards.
