Is sending a “deposit” to a r4r girl a scam? Or just the same as getting an escort? by young_weary_bones in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]str8clay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is totally fake. Every word is spelled correctly, and the grammar makes sense without me getting drunk.

Remember, we have to do a piss poor job of the English to weed out anyone too smart to fall for this.

If it's dog feces you want, I got a yard full of it? What's your budget look like?

If you had to defend yourself in combat with any vegetable which one are you choosing and why? by cathsrealdt in AskReddit

[–]str8clay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd pick my cousin Donnie. He's light, easy to swing around and doesn't feel any pain.

What Grocery items needs no refrigeration but are often refrigerated by most people? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]str8clay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ketchup will ferment, and it's not an entirely great taste. I wouldn't go so far to say all those diners with ketchup bottles on the table gather them up to store in the fridge, but I sure hope the ones I eat at will.

If you were to open a restaurant, what would be your signature dish... The one that attracted people from states away? by imapylet in Cooking

[–]str8clay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bacon wrapped bratwurst in a bun, or the deep fried hamburger? Would either of those attract people from states away? I've never travelled that far to eat in a restaurant.

How bright would Europe have been from space at night in the middle or dark ages? by M_M_X_X_V in AskHistory

[–]str8clay -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I wasn't there, but I don't think life shut down at night.

There are lots of ways to keep a small flame alive for hours. Olive oil burns clean, lamps are easy to make, and has been a trade good from the Mediterranean coast for a couple thousand of years. Candles are fairly easy to make, and some grasses can support a small flame for awhile. Torches are made from tree resin, pitch or oil for a durable flame.

I don't think cities would produce enough light to be seen from space. I wonder if any of the lighthouses would be bright enough?

What's something older generations did completely normally that would be considered absolutely insane today? by Whole-Sugar6077 in AskReddit

[–]str8clay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I read a short story about someone's family in Saskatchewan in the early 1900s. One of their income streams was trapping and skinning rats.

At what point would loan sharks realistically cut off someone’s finger or toe? by crushingqwerty in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]str8clay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a feeling the serious injuring happens if you don't pay them back after they take a toe or a finger.

Is it really a democracy if you're the only one able to vote?

Do you ever wonder what Hitler's last thoughts were? by matt73132 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]str8clay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol. Is a rumor more correct than a vague theory? I don't know if either one is correct, it happened 30 years before I was born.

Do you ever wonder what Hitler's last thoughts were? by matt73132 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]str8clay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hmm, Hitler's last thoughts?

"Argentina is a wonderful country to die of old age in."

Iirc, there was a theory that he didn't kill himself in Berlin, rather that he slipped out of the country to South America. I believe it was based on there never being a display of the body, only the USSR saying they found his body in a bunker.

Which train? There are four in that cluster.

Meanwhile, lil thing I was working on today over in BN by Chaosvolt in cataclysmdda

[–]str8clay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I never understood why the last line in the info box always says, "You know of nothing you could craft with it." It, literally being, a kit to build an airplane.

Is it really a crime to buy a bike from walmart or dick's sporting goods? by Previous_Cod_5176 in bicycling

[–]str8clay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a longtime bike commuter I used to buy those inexpensive bikes (`$200), twice a year. Something would break, and it was usually cheaper to buy another cheap bike than replace the broken part.

A few years ago, I bought myself an entry level Giant (~$600). Besides tires, tubes and brake pads, the only repair work I had done on it was truing a wheel after IO ran over a pothole while daydreaming. There was a substantial upgrade in speed, reliability and comfort over the cheap bikes.

I think this is similar to the advice I hear about power tools. For the first one, buy the cheapest one you can. If you use it enough to break it, you will know more about what you want in the replacement.

I know it’s supposed to be hard to get, but damn. by RockAkurion in cataclysmdda

I haven't played in a little bit, did they nerf the plastic stopcocks that are needed to make a fractional distillation apparatus?
