  That’s my understanding. I’m not native to the yinz area I’ve just worked with people who said it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨When did people start saying "have a good rest of your day"⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Pittsburgh and similar areas of Pennsylvania I think

  Bimanual palpation was the standard for a long time. Still common for older docs when I was starting like 15 years ago

  I have the Palma 2 and really like it. Heavy use for the last year and it’s held up.

  I know 6/4 is a classy choice but it seems unnatural to have two beats with three 0.25 notes apiece.

  Fully grokked firemen style

  My initial draft included more of the Dennis system and a paragraph about heteronormativity and gender roles. I thought I had gotten all of it out

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Covers the bases⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  But yeah, cavil, near his superman size, is a physique that is difficult to obtain without chemical help for sure. Steroids have really warped society’s view of what size most people can get.

  Lol I confused him with Oscar Isaac. For whatever reason I associate them both with star wars.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Covers the bases⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Elves, Pedro, maybe middle guy but hard to tell. Are you counting jack black?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Covers the bases⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  According to this chart you may have to. All I see are moustaches. I think you should double down on the scruff and go for dwarven. Don’t be a victim of our predominantly elfonormative culture.

  Going and getting swole will still get you women but not because of your big muscles in most cases. The dedication and follow through needed for that demonstrates value. Other hobbies are the same way. Of course some women like huge muscled men or cars or d&d or guitars or whatever but the ability to be both interested in and interesting about something is more attractive than the results.

  You hit the gym everyday and you’ll get way more compliments from men than women. Same if you have some sweet car. It’s the effort to attain that super nice back and thick heavy lats that women respond to more so than the muscles themselves in most cases.

  Doing something is more interesting than doing nothing. Plenty of guys without hobbies or interests will still find mates but it’s harder to get someone to want to know you and get to the point where they love your interiority without some kind of interest. Touch grass, join like minded people for activities, enjoy yourself and the rest will follow.

  Tldr.
  Slay orcs, cook food, go into the glimmer on a military mission then return potentially infecting Natalie Portman and you too can be the middle guy (whoever that is)

  Yeah, 81% on the pulse ox is bad. If the bipap doesn’t get that up you are buying a tube.

  Male has 4 legs, females have 6-8 depending on season.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨it's just neat⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I was in a thread once where someone who knew the male in this meme posted the headshot and bio from his job at the time. He looked about the same. Every time I see this image used it unobjectifies meme people for me for a little while.

  AI controlled drones directed by AI collected and analyzed signals intelligence.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨This will help me. I always have a problem hearing regular sized print books⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I think this has to do with the words per minute read back speed. I find that audiobooks from books with large font are read slower than the audiobook versions of books with smaller type. The last two audiobooks I’ve heard are The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh and Project Hail Mary. The former was read more slowly than the latter and had about 3 to 4 times bigger type.

  I would have done shameful things for that dl speed in 1998.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  In one of the Mission Impossible movies Tom Cruise is supposed to have a boring job no one will ask him about and the movie shows this by having the character talk about traffic patterns. I thought it was interesting information then and think it is interesting now.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨My brother got arrested for a dime bag. His picture got put up on the jails website. And they advertise. So shouldn't my brother get paid at least a little for providing clicks?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Thank you for making the second point. It does suck that I am forever searchable on an arrest database but I’ll take that over the cops being able to disappear me as a matter of course, as opposed to having to do extra work to disappear me. This is why the suspension of due process for ANY crime is bad. I know I’m preaching to the choir here.

  Lucky fly. It’s still so hot in Houston.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨when ur higher than sagan⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s like that “charge your iphone in the microwave” image that went around for a while but writ large and in language tailored to be more convincing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨when ur higher than sagan⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  A poisoning that’s rarely seen anymore but used to be more common. The heaps of data on bromism over the decades must not have made it into the training data.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bungie CEO Pete Parsons retires: With Destiny 2 sentiment at an all-time low and pressure from Sony growing, Parsons has decided it's time to 'pass the torch' and head for an exit⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I didn’t know destiny 2 was still going. I played it for like a year after release before getting tired of it but it was fun enough. The only game I’ve played since then was elden ring so I’m not real up on the times

  You have an accent aggue on your name, so I’m inclined to believe you, but so do I. I do I don’t know how much authority it really imbues. Can you be trusted?
