  84% of people who were punched in the face agree with a statement that’s least likely to get them pinched in the face again.

  Lol, no worries. I just didn’t want to be that guy who put incorrect data in someone’s head forever.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨what's the word for a leg elbow?⁩ ⁨⁨23⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

  Look at me. No, look at me. I need you to know that it’s a joke. I spelled the words backwards.

  My contribution is just as valid, unless you’re looking to hear from people who read the original Aramaic.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's the deal the miracles jesus chose to do?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  The fig tree is symbolic of the apple tree in the garden of Eden. Jesus cursing the tree to not bear fruit shows how he has come to stop original sin.

  And if you buy that bullshit I just made up, you’ll really enjoy church.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨what's the word for a leg elbow?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  The outside is the knee. The inside in the eenk.

  And the bit on your arm opposite of the elbow is the woble.

  Nevermind guys. They were all just Boeing whistle blowers. Nothing to see here.

  Oh, yeah. Jerks abuse proper terminology. That drives me mad

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fax machine⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  You ARE responsible for your own happiness.

  Sometimes that means leaving the relationship because your partner doesn’t do things that help you accomplish that goal, or actively hinders it.

  But no one can MAKE you happy. They can only provide an environment that helps it be easier.

  they don’t learn how to regulate their emotions.

  I don’t believe there’s causation. Kids learn to regulate their emotions from their parents, with or without tablets.

  There are plenty of people with no regulation and no tablets. And plenty of well regulated kids with tablets.

  Point is, it’s a parent problem, not a technology one. Though it’s very possible that shitty parents would use tablets as a pacifier. But they could also use TV, or sticking the kids outside all day, or anything else.

  I wish it was more granular and that they used a hash for IMEI. I’d happily share an IMEI unique hash. I’m not letting it make calls.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨He's always been there for me⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m sorry your dad taught you that this was appropriate. That sounds rough…

  While I’m sure you appreciate the “lessons in Independence” that you learned, there are ways to learn those lessons without being effectively abandoned. I wouldn’t recommend applying that approach with any kids you eventually have.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Feel this⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Your problems aren’t unique. But that 3% is fuckin weird.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dearborn, Michigan: Ford Rouge worker collapses, dies on shop floor⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I have eaten a consistent 2200 calories a day for about 6 years. I track everything every day. I’m a solid 165lbs.

  Except when I’m not. During a period of extremely high stress, I ended up at 190lbs. Same diet, but my body disagreed.

  Why? Because “calories in calories out” is the “frictionless plane and no air resistance” of the nutrition world. Sure, it’s accurate. But it’s also so simplistic as to be useless.

  So judge all you like, and you do seem to like it, but don’t pretend it’s as simple as “he ate too much so of course he died”.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dearborn, Michigan: Ford Rouge worker collapses, dies on shop floor⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Ugh, seriously. It seems like people don’t even have the time for self care anymore.

  Oh, maybe. But then it could go either direction. So that shouldn’t affect results.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Partner has ADD, do I have misophonia?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I have this with my kids. I got them headphones for every device. And noise cancelling headphones for myself. It’s a hostile existence.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it weird to sometimes wonder wether everything you know is wrong?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I always look at it this way. So what?

  What if I’m wrong and gay people are deviants? Well if I’m wrong, they get to live life like they want to. No problem there.

  What if trans people are mentally ill? Well, we don’t stop boob jobs or tattoos, and if we’re claiming trans is ill then those are too. So no problem with that either.

  Think of the consequences of your actions, and if those consequences are OK even if you’re wrong, then you can stop worrying.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨In the U.S., are all voting booth areas required to have carbon monoxide detectors?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I hope no one is going into the booth without a choice already made.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Awooo⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  how am i supposed to properly say “very not intelligent”?

  I think the accepted term is “conservative”.

  The R word has been flagged by that community as hurtful, and when people who are in the group say “ouch”, we listen.

  I don’t think they care about the terms stupid, idiot, moron, dummy, fool, or dunce.
