Well not me, and again I’m not exactly a porn star over here, I’m literally just above average for my demographics, statistically. Maybe a micro?

I mean, as someone who was once 9 (and I’m not lacking but I’m not that gifted either), still idk about this. They used skateboard bearings, like bones reds but cheaper (if you wanna make that shit fly, throw some swiss ceramics in there). I never fidget spun because I’m old but I skated so I recognized them instantly. Maybe if the bearing was popped out, but no way anyone fits in a fidget spinner with the bearing in.
That axle hole is 8mm, the external diameter is still only 22mm, but maybe, if the wiener in question can squish down to roughly 23mm. Still hard to believe. Reds pictured for reference.

As if nobles can’t be thrown off of their castles and spires on land too. At least maybe that way they can try and dive, try that in Scotland on a huge…tract of land!

- Comment on SNL censors audience profanities during Ego Nwodim’s Weekend Update segment 1 week ago:
I could have sworn there were lighter broadcast restrictions after 10 pm
Indecent and profane content are prohibited on broadcast TV and radio between 6 a.m. and 10 p.m.
SNL: Saturdays at 11:30 pm.
11:30 pm is 1h30m after the “prohibited” section, which ends at 10pm and resumes the following morning at 6am. So…it is allowed for SNL to say “shit” then?

Tbf I’d probably reject it anyway because it’d rely on AI and I’m basically 2s away from microwaving anything “smart” and communicating by encoded mail only lol.

“Fire early”
Uhhh, “cowboy duals” were on “draw,” not “make ready, aim, fire.” They had rifled barrels and six shooters by then not smoothbore muzzle loaded flintlocks with one ball that’s likely to miss.
“There was 40ft between them when they stopped to make their play, and the swiftness of the Ranger is still talked about today. Texas red had not cleared leather 'fore a bullet fairly ripped”
This line means Texas Red was slower on the draw than the Arizona Ranger with the big iron on his hip, that’s all. Texas Red reached for it (they stopped to make their play), but the Arizona Ranger was so much faster (the swiftness of the Ranger) that Red’s gun never even fully made it out of the holster (Texas Red had not cleared leather) before the Ranger’s shot connected ('fore a bullet fairly ripped).
BTW: These duals are almost entirely an invention of hollywood. They did happen but very very rarely and not exactly like the movies portray. I fucking love Marty’s music but the music he made isn’t based on historical fact, but rather hollywood fantasy. It’s basically The Outlaw Josey Wales in song form, and there’s nothing wrong with that.

That said, by the hollywood rules, the dual was fair as all hell.

Tbf, you can think god isn’t “real” while also hating the concept of “god” for being responsible for so much war and division throughout history (among other reasons.)

This comment said “newsflash not every animal gets to reproduce,” which equates autistic people with less than favorable social skills to animals who deserve to die without experiencing love.

I literally already said that we have trains in our densely populated metropolitan areas where it makes sense to do so already, but most of the country isn’t those 10 cities.
As fun as talking in circles is I’m going to respectfully walk away from this thread now. Have fun in Italy, eat something cheesy for me.
- Comment on Win win 3 weeks ago:
The thing you’re still failing to realize is that most of America is comparatively rural, and the big cities do have subways, busses, elevated train lines, etc. And we do have amtrak, and people do use it, but it’s not feasible for most of the country to rely on trains for transport. The town my grandma lives in has 5,000 people (if that), no trains beyond freight, no busses, no cab drivers, uber sometimes, only if Big Steve is working right now and he likes to go up to the “city” nearby (not a city like Bos, NYC, Amsterdam, more like idk some small city in Albania lol) for bowling on fridays, so good luck.
- Comment on What TV cancellation are you most upset by? 3 weeks ago:
Tbf it’s a tough sell, “I’ve seen The Patriot before, I don’t need to watch it again except maybe the ‘Aim small, miss small’ scene” “Oh it’s a completely distinct entity with a close title? Oh ok, yeah sure I’ll put it on the list.” *Never watches half of the list*
- Comment on What TV cancellation are you most upset by? 3 weeks ago:
Sort of counts, but KOTH.
Fox took it off the air FOUR episodes from the finale to “make room for The Cleveland Show” of all things, the worst offering from those Family Guy clones imho.
Luckily, Adult Swim was kind enough not only to pick up KOTH, but to air those last missing episodes as well, and I have it all torrented by now of course and it was easy to find, but still, fuck Fox for that one (amongst other things, but I want to punch the specific exec that decided to do that right in the eye just one good time.)

You ever been to West Virginia?
- Comment on Win win 3 weeks ago:
Yeah, I figured. Unfortunately the entire world isn’t as densely populated as Amsterdam, so public transit of that level isn’t always possible. For instance, NL, the entire country, is 1/2 the size of WV the state alone. And the pop of NL is 17,722,333, and the pop of WV is 1,769,979. So to reiterate, your country of 17 million people is smaller in area than one of our states containing 1 million people.
Maybe try leaving your safe little bubble occasionally.
- Comment on Win win 3 weeks ago:
Tbf there’s a pretty good chance their entire country is the size of one of our states.
