Well, then it actually is awkward.
- Comment on How important is flirting within the dating scene? 5 days ago:
Eh, just say, “I’m trying to flirt with you. How’s it doing?”
And if she laughs, you’re in. If she does squirmy-squirm face, “Well, I had to try. Now let’s enjoy this awkward silence together.” And stare at the ground silently, but for no more than three seconds.

Well ain’t that a pickle. It all depends on your knowledge.vs.belief position when it comes to the topic of afterlife.

Odd spelling of “whenever”
- Comment on Anon sets up a prank at school 1 week ago:
We had a “computer monitor” kid that couldn’t been the base of the stereotype you have in your head right now.
He acted like a god, everyone knew a lot more than him, ended up never leaving and became head of IT there. Got busted creeping on school girls. Classic cliche.
- Comment on Anon watches her boyfriend play videogames 1 week ago:
I knew a girl that went on 4chan.
She didn’t seem to understand that trolling doesn’t work IRL and that was kind of her entire persona, It was like babysitting an adult. You’d hang out with her for her own good, so the world wouldn’t attack her. Then one day my friend and her broke up and that was that. NFI. Don’t even remember her name, just how weird she was.

Step 3… Be given shit for being male and white by people much better off than you.
Step 4… Get no reprieve from racism and sexism because someone before your existence looked like you and was these things so it’s okay to happen to you as revenge.
Step 5… Do the one thing white males way better at than anyone else; suicide.
And hope for re-roll

- Comment on If you're falling apart at only 27 you're in real trouble 1 week ago:
so I’m not sure why you’re assuming I don’t take care of myself
If that’s the impression you got, my apologies. I was using your comment more as a soap box to preach the importance of taking care of the body and how much difference a little goes.
My bad for forgetting that, in the end, I was replying to an individual. We can call this “getting carried away”. Doesn’t devalue what I said, but I certainly could’ve been a bit more conscious of the soap box.
My only extra insight beyond your doctor’s much more valuable opinion is that doctors often focus on fixing a problem. But it’s very important to sustain a lifestyle that prevents problems from occurring. Skeletal, muscular, and the nervous system(s) are the failures of all “old injuries”. Reinforcing them and keeping them active prevents the most basic of injuries. It’s only cartridge issues that we can’t bolster, it just wears out if abused, never getting resilient.

And you’re so familiar with the online responses of 7-year olds because…?

- Comment on If you're falling apart at only 27 you're in real trouble 2 weeks ago:
I’m pretty genetically unlucky. That’s why I’ve paid attention to my diet and staying active. It was something doctors told me quite early in the journey, and they were right. Taking care of oneself goes a very long way.
A big part of it is listening to your body and pushing the limits without actually breaking it, so it gets higher. If your knees are hurting, stop. Take care of them. You’ve only got two and if you push them, they’ll die young while the rest of you has plenty more years to give but can’t now, so they decay too.
If you want to be more active, focus on your inactive parts for sale of the rest of the parts. They’ll tell you when to stop, and listen. But each time they’ll get a bit better than the last, or you’ll figure out a way to compensate for them.

Well we all know the famous Wool one. Linengong and Nylonpolyestergong are even less known secrets, but they go hard.
- Comment on If you're falling apart at only 27 you're in real trouble 2 weeks ago:
That’s a very condescending and privileged take. You clearly are lucky with genetics.
Wow. What an opener.
Assumptions online generally end up with looking like a total fool. I’ll spare the backstory, but thanks for the lols

…if you neglect yourself.
I’m 40 and don’t experience any of this because I’ve remained active and eat well. I only just got into whitewater kayaking as my latest hobby and I doubt I’d have noticed much more of an edge at 27. Even with climbing, I still compete and doubt I’d notice an edge unless I was at the level of a full professional.
I think the aches occur in neglected muscles and skeletons. Like people that stinks because they’re not showering, but are weirldy okay with that.

SmartTube if it’s an Android TV.
Download and install the APK through Downloader app or USB, only takes a few mins following instructions.
Devs keep it very regularly up to date. SponsorBlock included. Many excellent additional features making it way better at being YouTube than the YouTube app could ever be.
- Comment on Why do some people think others are troll just because they don’t like what they have to say? 3 weeks ago:
Some times Person A can be so fallacious or incorrect, Person B may assume they’re intentionally wasting time by trolling, doubting that Person A is actually unintentionally that incompetent or incapable of discourse.
This usually starts when Person A ignores what Person B has said or starts applying common argument fallacies, seemingly for the sake of being right as a priority over empathising or broadening perspective.
Of my many years socialising on the Internet, it should be very rare to be called a troll; so much so that if it happens, it’s likely I’m being a total twat entirely out of touch with reality. So, if you’re finding this happens to you regularly, it may be food for thought to at least listen/read what someone is saying and ponder on it before responding. If you start wasting their time, prepare tocontinue being called a troll.
- Comment on Why do smokers specifically seem to be disproportionally bad for littering? 3 weeks ago:
I don’t notice this in my country. Most bins have a cigarette bin attached and most smokers don’t just light up anywhere. It’s water bottles here instead.

I blocked ML, then blocked Trump and Elon as keywords.
I don’t see this behaviour much anymore.
Someone took the time to make this comic. Don’t be that person. You’re better than that and should enjoy much more enriching things than exhausting your energy into the black hole that goes no where, but you’ve been socially led to think is somehow important and noticed.
Step 1. Start blocking the tribe’s.camp sites.

- Comment on is feeling disrespected reason good enough to change jobs? 1 month ago:
Only depends if you like what you do and how personally involved you get with jobs.
- Comment on Not enough people buying Premium, eh? 1 month ago:
Depends. While compressing the video, it will create repetition,.artificial motion blur, etc. Either through software or directly on the device itself with its own software—GoPros are notoriously bad for this, for example.
Then when uploading to YT, it has its.own compression—because billions of petabytes—which will introduce your classic.nearest neighbour type compression problems. Colour spots, blurring, flat.comtraats,.etc. All in an effort to keep bitrate and thus the file size down.
But as I said, it’s unusual to have content on YT of this quality where nitrate “ruins” the experience. There’s much worse problems at the forefront in amateur and/or.fast content video.
- Comment on Not enough people buying Premium, eh? 1 month ago:
I don’t notice it on a 75" TV.
But when 99% of the content on YouTube is struggling to just get focusing right, pursuing higher quality bitrates is a useless priority. It’s all trash amateur TV. Resolution is not a factor here.

I had that at a venue yesterday. And it was awful music. It felt like I got sucked into the Hallmark universe.
It was the first time in many years that I complained to staff and they were happy I did and immediately put normals music on.
I didn’t know humans were capable of producing such shit.

There’s no approximation in literalism! If that glass isn’t a beaker, you find the nearest means to measure and.go to town. I’ll accept 1 thumb length of water to ait at 1 thumb length minus the thickness of a bank card and driver’s licence…

The creature started as an egg, then a small lizard, then dinosaur thing, then dragon. At which point it would fly away and you “won”. Then you just start over lol.
