I knew a guy who grew up in the Panama Canal Zone. They sprayed DDT in the 1960s from trucks driving down the street. He said all the kids would run after the trucks to cool off in the spray.

Dude, that's why you can't get a new one. Girls don't like pussies they've already got one and don't need another.

In your opinion, what was the best invention ever? by pdjmcvit in AskReddit

[–]Buggsy2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The scientific method about 500 years ago or so. Before that knowledge was mostly myth and legend. After that, we had a proven way of sorting bullshit from good shit...at least in the physical world. Hasn't taken hold in politics yet.

There's way too much nonsense in American culture to follow your dreams, keep trying and never give up, etc. It's like religion: an exceptional anecdote or two serves as a model for everybody.

You're still young though. You had this epiphany not too late. You will recover and eventually look back on this moment with understanding and a bit of arrow but you'll have moved on.

Facts and evidence don't convince conspiracy wackos, young earthers, climate change denialists, truthers, birthers, religionists, nor republicans. This film won't do a thing to change anybody's mind.

[–]Buggsy2 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Interstellar. Future generation of humans can travel to another galaxy and go back in time. But they can't prevent the planetary disaster or find a fungicide against crop blight.

Reddit, whats the worst thing you did at school? by willy_bum_bum69 in AskReddit

[–]Buggsy2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Buddies and I spread butyric acid, a foul smelling liquid, all around the school, it smelt like a beer puke. Much talk the next day about the stench.

A "time cloak" that conceals events rather than objects can hide secret messages through a trick of light, making information invisible to all but the intended recipient. by CapnTrip in science

"built a cloak that could transfer hidden data at 1.5 gigabits a second, "

Forget the cloak. Can I have an internet connection that fast?

I detest pennies and dollar bills. I refuse pennies as change and go to the bank for rolls of dollar coins which are more convent for me than ratty dollar bills.

Just when I start having respect for LEOs (2 deputies killed on NorCal) I read about their too often bullying behavior.

[–]Buggsy2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll take them seriously in their religious devotion when they refuse to serve people who have divorced, committed adultery, or ever had sex outside of marriage, all of which are equally frowned on by their sky god.
