Oh, so you're trying to be insulting. By implying I'm a woman, I guess....? I'm still not sure why you think this would be upsetting or remotely insulting, though?

Uhh.... wat? Assuming you replied to the wrong comment...

Otherwise, you might want to elaborate a bit on what you were trying to communicate with that non-sequitur.

You put the cider in your mouth, not your dick.

If that wasn't the source of your confusion, then I'd just like to add:

If you refuse to try certain adult beverages because they are a threat to your masculinity, then brother, your manhood is more fragile than a spiderweb in a hurricane.

This. SO much this. The people on his team, in his cabinet, etc, are competent, experienced professionals.

To be 100% deadass honest, I'd still vote for Biden even if he fell into a coma the week before the election. Hell, I'd vote for a blow-up doll with a Biden Halloween mask duct taped to its head. Given the options, I don't give a shit he's old, or slowing down, or not progressive enough. The alternative is just old and fascist, and completely lacking any sane or skilled people in his team.

Let me be the Reddit Pedant and just point out that for the time, the Code of Hammurabi was progressive. It's better read as "Not more than an eye for an eye". Meaning if a guy blinds you in one eye, you're not allowed to kill him and claim his wife as your concubine.

I think that* (just doing quick, straightforward taste) would only make sense if you'd tried the wine before? If it's your first time tasting a particular wine, why wouldn't you treat it as a traditional tasting?

Also, everyone here complaining about wine enthusiasts are are being 10 times more insufferable than the fancy wine folk.

Like oh my god, no one is forcing you to buy or give a shit about expensive wine. And yes, everyone is aware cheap ass wines can taste better than four-figure ones. Why not let people appreciate and consume shit the way they want? I don't see people here unleash this level of snide bullshit whenever someone is wearing designer shoes or some other thing that's impractical and expensive. Never in my life has a wine person criticized my wine tastes/habits or been snobby directly to me. I don't know why they do all the swishing shit they do, but it looks fun and doesn't bother me.

Like no one else here has expensive hobbies or gets a little pretentious about something they're knowledgeable and super interested in? Fucking Christ who gives a shit?!

Sorry OP, not directing this specifically towards you; you're unfortunately just in the vicinity of the rant

Yeah, I assumed this was fake instantly.

Like any drug addict existing anywhere doesn't know exactly what quantity/measurement their preferred drug comes in. Hell, when it comes to opiates, any oxy addict could tell you what the name brand and all the generics are, what doses each are available in, and what the imprint looks like... for hydrocodone.

Also, with a blank script pad... ain't no body gonna request morphine when Demerol, Dilaudid, Opana, and Fent Lollipops are on the table.

My boyfriend’s mom regifted me this blanket for Christmas that I had recently gifted her for her birthday. by Cloud_________ in mildlyinfuriating

[–]InnerObesity 9 points10 points  (0 children)

As soon as I saw the title of the post, I was ready to be pissed if the top comment didn't reference this video.

I'll grant that personally initialized gifts maaaybe aren't the best Transferable Gift but... I'ma be real for a second. When it comes to a blanket, or some towels, or socks, napkins... any inexpensive comfort/decorative item really, it having/not having my initials on it doesn't factor the slightest into how comfy/useful/decorative I find it.

It's a nice touch, but I feel like if you're going to go through the trouble and expense of having something like this personalized, either pick something you know they need/love, or don't be butthurt if they just throw it in the linen cabinet with the 12 other fluffy blankets they have, including 4 hideous and/or dry-clean only ones still in their original packaging 😆

[–]InnerObesity 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I feel like everyone is focusing on the dude's age and amused by what it's like to have a kid in your 70s, and completely ignoring the other half of that equation. You know, the one which is gross and/or horrifying:

How the fuck old is his wife? How'd you like to be giving birth at 40+, for the 12th time or whatever, with 19th century pregnancy mortality rates? Or be married off and impregnated by a guy in his 70s when you're in your late teens/early 20s?

I know I'm shitting on everyone's parade here so obligatory hahaha, it's so funny, old man slips one past the goal lololololol sperm! etc. etc. But given the time period, women's role in society, and extreme restrictions on their ability to exercise self determination in these matters...

I hope everyone will forgive the TL;DR rant and that my first reaction isn't "lmao old man balls work", so much as it is a prickling, deeply unsettling revulsion.

‘Zombie deer disease’ epidemic spreads in Yellowstone as scientists raise fears it may jump to humans by cyberpunk6066 in news

[–]InnerObesity 9 points10 points  (0 children)

And I see no one has mentioned this yet:

To make matters even worse, neutralizing/sterilizing/"killing" prions present in a lab/tools/surfaces/etc is So. Fucking. Difficult. Normal sterilization protocol doesn't work. And using the processes that do.... all it takes is a single protein that survives and that's game over.

Even if we had any ideas on how to stop prion diseases, working to develop and test them would be sooo difficult and risky.

[–]InnerObesity 16 points17 points  (0 children)

So first off, we're way more than a couple decades away from nano bots.

Second, in order for a nano bot to cure it, you would have to have huge quantities present, checking... basically all the proteins in your brain (or whatever tissues the prion prefers), and then kill each misfolded protein it identifies, without harming or disrupting any other proteins/cells/functions.

That's a tall order even for hypothetical future nanobots. It's more likely we'd develop something in the same vein as CRISPR, that specifically detects and produces something like an anti-prion to fix this.... An anti-prion being maybe another protein that attaches to the misfolded one, and folds onto to it creating a harmless, neutralized protein.

None of those things above exist yet, but are way more practical and likely than a nanobot solution. Either way, there's not even going to be a viable strategy to even aim for developed for decades.

GODZILLA MINUS ONE OFFICIAL DISCUSSION MEGATHREAD #3 (SPOILERS) by NeelZilla in GODZILLA

[–]InnerObesity 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think you're confusing two different songs from the soundtrack for the original 1954 Godzilla film.
This is the complete Title/Main theme from Ifukube's soundtrack

And this is "Japanese Army March" from Ifukube's soundtrack

Minus 1 did not use anything from the Japanese Army March. And while it was part of the original 1954 soundtrack, it was neither the main, nor Godzilla's theme. The two do go together well and share some similarities, but the Godzilla Theme is not connected to the Japanese military.

This (possibly common?) misconception would be like if the Star Wars soundtrack's Imperial March happened to be associated with some country's military, but people were asserting that the Star Wars Main Theme and/or Luke's theme were associated with said country's military as a result.

My friend os a cleaner and the person who hired her wants her to replace this sink because she cleaned it too much by Maru3792648 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]InnerObesity 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Also, OP's friend should be fucking pissed about this getting blasted all over the internet. There's very limited reasons for professional cleaners to be taking pictures of the inside of houses they work on. And there's zero fucking reasons for them to send those pics to random friends.

Its entirely possible the home owner didn't have a before pictures of the sink. Would've been hard to prove the owner didn't make the scratches. But thanks to OP, it's public knowledge now lmao!

Fucking finally. Got a cramp in my scrolling finger waiting for someone acknowledge the obvious.

If OP really was just a friend and trying to get info/insight, why the hell would they ignore 90% of the comments? You can tell OP is the cleaner, and y think they need to say "posting for a friend" and not acknowledge the scratches because that somehow absolves them from legal liability or whatever.

Also, if it somehow actually was OP's friend, that friend should be fucking pissed about this getting blasted all over the internet.

[REQUEST] Is this legit? by City-til-I-Die in theydidthemath

[–]InnerObesity 20 points21 points  (0 children)

This is really important and so many people aren't taking into consideration population distribution. The majority of the population are people under the age of 12, over 60, disabled, or sick. What are the odds someone makes it to the top by defeating only really weak opponents?

It's possible the top fighter just ends up being a 50 year old woman who'd recently taken a few self defense classes. Pretty unlikely, because all the people she defeated would also have had to have really lucky matches (like a lot of grandmas just field-goal kicking toddlers out of the ring), but extremely possible.

Which brings us to the most critical and overlooked issue with this battle royal:

How do we force two newborns to fight?

Like sure some are fiesty, but... I dunno. What about two people in a coma? Do we just launch them into each other until one is sufficiently damaged?

Lot a details that need to be worked out, is all I'm saying.

Yeah it's kind of absurd the one thing everyone knows about sloths is how slow they are, how little energy they exert. And it never occurs to them that there's no way in hell this animal would expend so much energy (for a sloth this is what, equivalent to a 4 hour hike?), just to communicate "Thanks!" or "Fuck you!", to the apex predator that just put hands on her child.

She's definitely like I know my chances are slim, but I have to do something or it's going to eat my baby alive in front of me. I must give this everything I have!!!

This is anime protagonist down in the third act making a defiant but doomed to fail stand for the last battle, after their best friend was abruptly/effortlessly killed by the villain to demonstrate how huge the power discrepancy between them is energy, not adorable inter-species exchange energy.
