I would assume “on the ropes” was a reference to Andre being a wrestler. Don’t think it was meant to be about his death.
- Comment on "And the killer was never caught..." 1 day ago:
The first time I watched a true crime documentary it scared the crap out of me. I was eight, I think, and it was about Jack the Ripper. I watched it in a small dark smokey lounge in the back of a funeral home with some other kids of similar age and then had to run out to the car alone probably around 10:30pm or so.
- Comment on Why English language is sometimes "lazy", sometimes not 2 days ago:
The job application one should be pronounced with a long a as the second e. Despite the last e not being silent the u is still elongated. It’s a recent adoption from French. Even though they are spelled the same the two words are unrelated.
- Comment on Who would win: every human in the world vs. every animal in the world? 2 weeks ago:
Mosquitoes are the only thing that kills more humans than other humans. In fact, if you look at the top 10 animals that kill humans and add up 2-9s per year totals they’re a bit less than mosquitoes. Also the list is very bug and parasite heavy.
- Comment on Are there any complete foods recipe builders still working? 4 weeks ago:
Thanks, I downloaded it and am messing with it. It’s missing some nutrient data on a few of the ingredients I am looking for but it’s the best I’ve found so far.

I’ve never been much of a social media user outside of reddit and lemmy and I’ve never had an Instagram account so maybe it’s my lack of familiarity but does that page list some really unimpressive stats? The original post had “more than 3,000 likes in less than three years” and for the second Instagram post it says"Within seven months, the post gained over 4,000 likes." Do Instagram posts continue active participation for years? I felt pretty good the few times I’ve posted something that got thousands of likes but it’s more personal achievement 'than this is going to be bigger than two broken arms".

If you only have one annoyance big enough to complain about I want your life.
- Comment on does lemmy world automod removing a post from Ani social affect only lemmy world? 1 month ago:
If the removal reason is that it wasn’t marked NSFW do you restore the post if it is edited to be correctly flagged and the poster asks for it to be restored?

It’s fake. It looks like that so she can bring the same one to every picnic.
- Comment on The Eurobean Mind Cannot Comprehend 2 months ago:
My mind can’t comprehend those walking and biking numbers. The walking is about 70 miles a day. That’s more than double the average distance of a one day ultra marathon done everyday for a month and a half. The biking distance is about 255 miles a day. Roughly 2.5x the average daily distance for the Tour de France. I want to meet the people who can do that.

It would have been a continent and a whatever Central America was when I was in school but the younguns nowadays tell me that Central America is included in North America now. And most of South America seems to think that North and South America are all one continent. If we went with that we could make a really long transcontinental path.
- Comment on Reddit is taking over Google 2 months ago:
Look for threads that are at least a year old to get better answers. Among the people who left in the most recent exodus was a good portion of reddit’s tech and science people who were giving good answers and mods who were keeping those answers from being drowned out by shit posters and the confidently incorrect.
- Comment on What will happen to large companies once poor people have no more money to use? 2 months ago:
The lyric is “I owe my soul to the company store”. Sold requires a conscious choice, willingly entering into the agreement. Under a company script system children are forced into labor as early as possible to help pay the family debt. In less than a generation teenagers are given the “choice” to go to work or see their families already meager income reduced to cover “their portion” of the family debt.
- Comment on car insurance 2 months ago:
I’m in a similar position, middle aged, clear driving history for about 15 years, car’s an '18. I pay ~$450 every 6 months with Progressive. Paying the whole amount up front gives me a good discount. If you can’t do that size payment at once you can pay with PayPal credit and it should be no interest for 6 months so you can get the discount and still pay monthly.
- Comment on car insurance 2 months ago:
We’re no where near $170 a year but $500 is very high. I haven’t had a ticket or accident in about 15 years, I think insurance companies can only go back 6 years, and I’m paying about $75 per month.
