Seems logical, right? Unless it’s only interested in teeth that fell out naturally.
- Comment on You know... they have a point 1 day ago:
Because the tooth fairy only comes for kids’ teeth, not interested in the adult stuff. Also, what makes everyone so sure the digging doesn’t happen?
- Comment on Does the average person have no critical thinking? 2 days ago:
I do think people without direct experience are unable to understand the depth or the totalitarian evil. It’s just too terrifying to accept that one can be trully powerless, that any kind of resistance can lead not just to the destruction of themselves, but also their families, that the degree of bullying and control can be so high and the regard for human life so low.
It’s too scary, so normal human minds just refuse it as a possibility and try to imagine more optimistic scenarios.
It’s healthy not to lose hope, but it’s also not good to underestimate the evil and unfair to look down on the people facing it.

Wait, dinosaurs were not cold-blooded lizards. Are we talking lizards, reptiles including extinct dinosaurs or reptiles including dinosaurs including birds?

Well, yeah, I seem to mess them up - HPV is the one with vaccine, HPS is similar in that it can be a cause of cervical cancer, but the matter is less researched and I don’t know about a vaccine.
- Comment on how do I avoid becoming conformist, lazy and completely incapable of learning something new? 2 weeks ago:
Many people lose the mental capabilities they used to have when they were young, so they become unable to act the same way as they used to. They often lose the ability to learn new things. We’re talking 60+, so there are hormonal changes that can influence both the physical and psychological side of a person. Just stay young in your head is an advise similar to saying “cheer up” to a depressed person. The mental decline is probably partly genetic, partly pure luck or lack thereof, and a minor part can be influenced by lifestyle. So I guess try to influence what you can, excercise, eat healthy food, read, meet younger people and hope for the best.

One thing is to identify the bad behaviour in others, to see you’re doing it yourself is much harder though. People often don’t realize they’re doing something they hate in others.
- Comment on Anon contracts herpes 2 weeks ago:
The important and nastiest part of HSV is some strains cause cervical cancer in women, so men with HSV must take care not to spread something that has the potential to kill their partner. There is a vaccine, but it doesn’t work 100%.

Yup, how dare women enjoy sex!

The meaning of bread is pretty loose as it is, especially internationally.

Wow, whats the name of the cultivar?
- Comment on Is this picture idea immature? 3 weeks ago:
Ok, I get this and agree. I’d argue though OP probably is genuinely silly. The problem is when you use dating apps, you have to present yourself in some way. Taking pictures of yourself and choosing the good ones is really quite a killer of spontaneity and truthfullness. And everyone knows you want to show off your good sides in the profile. Taking silly pictures with his cousin that he may end up being a bit embarrased about later seems as genuine as it gets.
- Comment on Is this picture idea immature? 3 weeks ago:
What you say is not universally true. There are women (I know, being one of them) who are attracted by silly. To me, seeing a man enjoying a silly situation he himself created means I could potentially enjoy something like that with him one day, which is super exciting to me. If OP wants to meet someone to share silly things with, he should include such photo - it’s going to filter out the women who are way too serious.

Oh shit.
- Comment on gross either way, but do friends actually talk like this or would this be from people who are dating or something? 4 weeks ago:
That’s also possible, but I think it’s worth it to leave no doubt about your feelings.
- Comment on gross either way, but do friends actually talk like this or would this be from people who are dating or something? 4 weeks ago:
It seems like they enjoy this and would like to include you. You should tell them you’re not interested and leave.

People who tell you they don’t sleep with their mother are in denial.
- Comment on Maybe it's just a human thing. 4 weeks ago:
The word god is used as a stand-in for religion. A synecdoche.
- Comment on Maybe it's just a human thing. 4 weeks ago:
I guess you can hate god as a concept. God can be proven to exists in human minds (no esoteric stuff, just psychology and sociology). You can hate this scientific fact and what it means for humankind.
- Comment on What's the community for stuff like this? 4 weeks ago:
Testosterone spikes are what happens in your body when you fall in love. Therefore testosterone is sometimes referred to as the hormone of love. It is true for both men and women. So how do onions fit into that?
