About 80% of my use of Netflix is “hear about a cool film, open up the app, it’s not on Netflix, close the app”.

- Comment on What percentage of lead gets washed off the fingers of a typical human after handling lead solder? 1 week ago:
Only lick the soldering iron when it’s turned on. That way, the ouchies from the heat cancel out the ouchies from the lead poisoning. Trust me, I’m an expert at licking things other people say shouldn’t be licked

What an insane thing to read with no context
- Comment on How true is it? 2 weeks ago:
My eyes are getting worse over time, so I get new glasses every four or five years. When I switch glasses, I suddenly realise that trees have individual leaves, they’re not just a green blob. Anything over ~1.5 meters away is blurry without glasses. I can see fine for most things but I can’t read or tell the time or see fine lines at those distances

Imagine turning down $800 an hour because you don’t want to work in a warehouse /s
- Comment on What's the point of a long-distance friendship? 2 weeks ago:
You can probably still be emotionally attached to someone, even if they’re not around anymore?
I can be, and I would like to be, but it never seems to work out that way… Part of my question is to work out what other people do and what I’m doing wrong.
- Comment on What's the point of a long-distance friendship? 2 weeks ago:
Yes, that sounds like me. I’ve only really had it happen twice where people have come back into my life, but one of them is now my best friend again after I didn’t see or talk to them for years. The other example moved away for about eight years and although we were close (before or after) we did just carry on the same relationship we had before.
- Comment on What's the point of a long-distance friendship? 2 weeks ago:
I am ND, so part of this is trying to diagnose what I’m doing wrong and part of it is trying to understand what everyone else is doing haha
- Comment on What's the point of a long-distance friendship? 2 weeks ago:
It’s true that I don’t seem to need company in the same way that lots of people do, but I don’t think that’s the issue here. I have good friendships with people in person, but can’t seem to keep them up online. I think I’m just not as comfortable / good at talking over text for the more in-depth and interesting conversations that are worth having friends for
- Comment on What's the point of a long-distance friendship? 2 weeks ago:
That’s really cool. I wanted to start playing D&D online with the friend that prompted this question, but she doesn’t really have the time (or I’m not important enough to make time for, I guess) :/
Kinda sucks, but that’s what happens sometimes
- Comment on What's the point of a long-distance friendship? 2 weeks ago:
Thanks for the input. I do have closer friendships in person, but once we move apart (geographically) it just sort of… fades. Based on these replies, I think I’m just not very good at talking over text
- Comment on Where does a man get a proper shoe horn that will not break 2 weeks ago:
It’s so you don’t have to bend down, can be helpful for less mobile people with slip-on shoes

I enjoy having semi-serious discussions about nonsense like this, so I appreciate RubberElectron’s reply calling me out
- Comment on #notaseagull 3 weeks ago:
If you’re an ornithologist writing a scientific paper, you’d presumably be using a genus + species in Latin rather than any colloquial name anyway, while still acknowledging that they fall under the umbrella term “seagull” for most people. But I’m a descriptive linguist, rather than prescriptive, and that’s really what this meme is about (it’s not about seagulls)
- Comment on #notaseagull 3 weeks ago:
If 90% of the population call them seagulls, and 99% of the population understand what you mean when you say “seagull”, then yes, they are actually called seagulls
- Comment on Far too many people are dying for the first time 4 weeks ago:
I know someone who died twice. Well, I used to know them, the second time was lethal. First time they managed to survive though, with the help of a hospital full of doctors

- Comment on Badgers 4 weeks ago:
I’ve witnessed a European badger stand up to a golden retriever much bigger than it barking and growling aggressively in its face and the badger stood its ground. I don’t know if it was too scared to turn away or if it genuinely wanted to fight, but it was brave AF either way. (also I’ve never seen such a clean badger, but tbf most examples I see are dead on the road :/ )

What a bunch of bullshit. Just draw it way off 90 if you don’t want people to use a protractor. I calculated 125° because of this (but I’m happy I still got the right wrong answer, if that makes sense)
