  This one is 2000s, but I remember my family renting a Red Riding Hood movie from blockbuster. It was extremely weird and creepy, and I always struggled to find details of the movie online. I recently found it again and watched it, and it’s still weird and creepy (though that makes it fun to drink and watch as an adult.) I then learned Henry Cavill and Joey Fatone were in the movie, which didn’t sit well as an adult.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I liked Star Trek before it got woke. /s⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I think this is generally what I hear when it comes to “woke” media. I always chalk it up to media having no clue on how normal humans function in a society.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How did a simple phone call become so problematic?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t know why, but I despise phone calls. I’d even rather someone video call me or talk face to face. I just find it worse than every other method of communication.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Religion⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  One of which that I’m aware is: the devil was deliberately created with the knowledge of its future rebellion to test the faith of people. Another is to wait for them to repent. I don’t follow any more, but deeper into catholicism there’s a surprising amount of theory. For a religion with an organized structure, it’s not very organized.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨My favorite⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Only restaurant my family had a borderline hostile reaction from the staff. Seated other families before us, stating “we forgot you,” and ignoring a meal order from a member stating, “you didn’t order anything.”

  Not likely. In an interview, Trump said people supporting Luigi is a “sickness.” Which makes sense, because he’s entirely disconnected from reality.

  That’s why I mention it!

  This is something that gets examined pretty well in Your Inner Fish, particularly in the chapter named Your Inner Shark. It analyzes how the embryo develops and how the embryos are very similar to start.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨make it make sense⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I know it’s technically a usable defense, but how often is the Act of God defense actually ruled? From what I understand, it rarely works, and you’d have a better chance with any other defense. Has it been successfully used recently?

  Stayed at a complex with a laundry room that cost 1.75 for each wash or dry cycle. An apartment with a washer/dryer hookup (appliances not included, but could be rented for $120ish) costed an extra $50 each month. I’d have to go through more than 14 wash and dry cycles both each month for the hookups alone to be worth it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Remember when 15% was the expected, not the minimum?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This only works when everyone refuses to tip. Some guy going to a restaurant, not tipping, and leaving me with the minimum of $2.13 just makes my day worse. The business does not care. That’s why I left service in the first place. I’ve had a $0 tip four times in one night before through no fault of my own (the patrons had even complimented me), but making enough to cover that minimum wage difference of only $5 an hour over the course of the week left absolutely no change for the company. A person can’t claim to have the moral high ground by refusing to tip because eventually it’ll be better that way.

  Skinks are the same way, no? They don’t regrow their tails after dropping them.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨gotdamn⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Look, I don’t agree with the rest of the statement either, but tell me, what is the water touching? Oh, more water? Water is wet.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Glass half full⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I used to work with kids. Every now and then I’d eat a banana or hot dog sideways, from the inside-out. They were horrified.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Big Science⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Which I find to be such an excellent example. Since red wine has prolonged contact with grape skins, letting it keep a lot of the flavonoids. It’s not incorrect exactly, but you’d still be better off eating grapes or drinking grape juice.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨sleep paralysis⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I hate sleep paralysis. Rather than taking the form of a demon, it takes the form of my friends/family/anyone I know walking in, seeing me with sleep paralysis, then leaving. I’d rather it be a demon.
