- Comment on If at a restaurant a guy is choking and I give them the Heimlich and accidentally break a rib while trying to save his life. Can I be sued? 1 week ago:
Just start a go fund me. The internet loves to help the little guy fight rich people.
- Comment on If at a restaurant a guy is choking and I give them the Heimlich and accidentally break a rib while trying to save his life. Can I be sued? 1 week ago:
If I slip in Burger King and want to sue McDonald’s for it I can. The case will probably be dismissed but I can certainly try.
The real question is should you worry about getting sued for saving someone’s life. You shouldn’t be worried, we have laws to protect helping people in danger.

What’s the phrases something like “don’t let the facts get in the way of a good story”
I a don believe that. Loved the movie “big fish”
One thing I like to say is “I once had my hair braided illegally in the Bahamas” sounds fascinating and it’s technically true. The real story is I cheaped out and the person who braided my hair didn’t have a license for a business.
Lots of people go to unlicensed hair stylist. It not that interesting when you lay out the facts.

To be fair I was just trying to make a silly comment. I didn’t expect to have to prove anything to someone.

It doesn’t sound like anything. It’s text. But yes babies can fake cry.

What can’t be trusted is people who don’t know themselves.
You aren’t any different. You have lied and will lie some more.
You haven’t made any arguments. Did you see that?
You refused to answer even a single one of my questions but I answered yours.
You didn’t comment on my answers to your questions. You instead went back to basically “it’s wrong” without any explanation as to why.
You can’t be trusted.
I’m over here with examples you are just making stuff up like “well you only do that because you think they can’t handle-“ nonsense. I even showed you examples were that couldn’t possibly be the case. So you just complain I wrote a lot?! I’m explaining to you how it works lol
You can stomp you’re feet and declare yourself right… but you’d be lying to yourself.
Society can only exist in a world where we lie and lie often. Every social creature in the animal kingdom has the ability to deceive others. That’s just part of being in a group.
You cannot live without lies as a human being. No more than you can exist without shitting.
You don’t have to like it but it’s the truth.

Cheating on you’re partner is wrong. That’s the wrong thing in that situation. I’ve never cheated on anyone.
“Telling white lies indicates-“ it really doesn’t. When a baby fake cries it isn’t being mean. It isn’t judging someone’s else’s maturity.
Everyone is constantly sheltered from the real world. We shelter ourselves with something called “society”. We flat out made up civilization. We maintain it partially by lying.
Emotional maturity. Let me ask you this: you are at thanksgiving with the entire family. Grandma asks you how the turkey was. You say in front of the hole family “I hated it”. Would youre family be proud of you? Would grandma be happy you valued her enough to tell her the truth? Or would the whole table look at you like a monster?
What situation would I like to be lied to in?
Well you mentioned Anne frank. Let’s go back there because there is a part in the book with a funeral.
The parents tell all the kids a family member died and all the kids are sad. Anne looks into the coffin to find it’s empty. The family lied to her. She was hurt. Then soldiers come in to question them. All the other kids didn’t realize there was a problem because they thought they were at a real funeral. Anne was scared because she knew the truth and now had to hide it.
In that situation I’d rather not know.
Another personal example. My ex wife and I lived in the same small town. I was a district manager for dollar tree. My exwife was around town and heard two of my managers complaining about a task I had asked them to do. They were talking shit essentially.
She shouldn’t have told me. They didn’t say anything that I needed to worry about, they weren’t confused about the task, it didn’t happen at work… there was nothing I needed to do with that information. People complain about thier boss after work sometimes. That’s natural.
I wish she hadn’t told me because there was nothing for me to say or do, nothing actionable with that information. She just wanted me to know they were talking shit to try an upset me.
So let me ask you this: was her telling me the useless information just to hurt me ethical? Would keeping it to herself be less ethical? Should my employees tell me everyday I’m there that working is hard and it would be easier if I don’t give them tasks? Would that honesty help anyone? Should I pull them aside and tell them I don’t like it when they complain about me outside of work? Should I tell them my ex wife is nosey and crazy?
Who need to know what?

Sometimes hitting people is necessary, correct.
Lies don’t always hurt people. Most lies we tell help maintain our society. Like not insulting grandmas cooking.
See the roadblock you are hitting is you think I’m “lies are never wrong!”
Pooping isn’t right or wrong. It’s something we have to do tho. That doesn’t mean you should shit ON people. It means you are going to shit it’s natural and normal. There is a time and place for it.
Same with hitting. Hitting isn’t inherently good or bad. We hit nails with hammers, we hit people when attacked. The reason is either good or bad. Hitting is nutral. We hit things all day every day.

“Babies can exhibit basic non-verbal deceptive behaviors such as “fake crying” to get attention or concealment before the age of one”

Humans learn to lie before we learn to talk. It’s in our very nature to lie and lie often.
Society itself is held up loosely by a web of agreed apon lies.
- Comment on I have this soda machine in my power, so it is my own, so long as I can assert myself as the holder. 2 weeks ago:
If the soda machine is on the customer side of the restaurant it’s automatically free refills. I don’t care what the policy is. If I have to fill my own cup, it’s free refills.

- Comment on How come killing a cat or dog is not more of an upgraded crime to murder? Alot of people consider their "pets" family members and such. Details inside 3 weeks ago:
What you consider family is not how law works. You’re personal emotions don’t matter at all. They aren’t people, they are property.
- Comment on I despise laundry. How can I make my life contain less of it? 4 weeks ago:
Live out of a laundry basket. If anyone questions it just curl yourself around the laundry basic and scream like a possum protecting its nest of young. Maintain solid eye contact throughout. Defecate if necessary.
They’ll never mention it again and probably warn others. you can then live out of that laundry basket free of judgement.
Follow me for more info about living life with the freedom of a possum .
- Comment on I’m watching something on tv and a dude strangled another dude with rattle snake. Is that possible? What’s the tensile strength of a snake? 4 weeks ago:
I was actually made leather belts for 15 years. A little ship in Kissimmee Florida. I had never worked with snake skin though. Only cow, water buffalo, goat, nothing exotic.
I did have snake skin boots and know the scales fall off when kids rub them the wrong way, and I know it’s almost impossible to find a size 12 that doesn’t have a big seem running down the side. Like when someone is a size 70 and wants a single peice leather cow belt. My foot is wider than the snake was. Not much can be done.

I thought of that but then thought about how muscles work. You might be able to bench press 500 lbs but if 500 lbs suddenly and violently yanked on your arm I think you’d lose that arm.
But I’m no arm scientist. That why I’m asking for advice. We can work this out together lol
- Comment on I’m watching something on tv and a dude strangled another dude with rattle snake. Is that possible? What’s the tensile strength of a snake? 4 weeks ago:
That was exactly my problem. I’ve seen snakes, I got bit by a copperhead as a kids. My daughter had snakes as pets when she was a teen.
But I’ve never we pulled on one. I’ve never even thought about if I could pull one apart until I saw that scean. Then I was thinking how people pull chicken heads off and thought “well hold on a second…”
That’s when I turned to the internet. We have to get to the bottom of this. In a humane way of course.

No, a lot of things in the show were vague in unclear but oddly enough it was pretty specific the killer was not killing people for sexual reasons. Had a whole scene were he turned off some porn and made a speech about it. I don’t why he turned the porn on in the first place… thinking of the scene now. You see him turn it off but it never explains why it was on in the first place.

When I wrote it I was thinking “this is the new airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow.”
I was actually waiting for someone to ask me “western or eastern?”

He picked it up immediately but it was unclear how much time had passed from when he picked it up to when he caught up with the guy. I’d say probably still fresh enough. Rigor might be setting in.

I’d say about a 50 cent peice in thickness. The snake had been run over on the road before and I figure that’s gotta jeopardize the structural integrity.
As to why the snake it was halfway explained. The guy had run over the snake then the killer guy picked it up and tracked him down. Then strangled him with the snake. It was never really explained if the murder had a fondness for snakes or something and was mad it got run over? I feel like that’s what they were going for but it was not clear at all.
