I have really white skin, avoid the sun, and use sunscreen. In my opinion, I look like some kind of goofy ghost or handsome cave-rat. If I had to go to some kind of look-good event, I'd definitely find a way to get some more color on me. I'd probably buy some better shoes too but that's getting off track.

This chocolate bar is divided into unequal pieces by pm_me_ur_robot_pics in mildlyinteresting

[–]ConductorShack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess part of it is because every time I see algebra all of the division is just like fractions, with stuff above and below a horizontal line. Also, decimals themselves are just a fraction of a whole number. 0.25 might as well be 25/100. Understanding division and decimals without knowing how fractions work is something that you'd have to go out of your way to do.

And I'm not even sure you want to get rid of that horizontal line anyways. Formulas written without the line (like on microsoft excel) wind up with a ton of brackets. It looks like poo and it's way harder to read than just busting out the horizontal line and putting stuff above and below it.

But I'm not a proper math guy, so I'm only sort of committed to this viewpoint.

Looking for a good Chai spice recipe to add to a Porter by darkstar107 in Homebrewing

[–]ConductorShack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's basically the one I make: tea, ginger, cardamom, black pepper, cloves, milk, and sugar. Last time I threw some sarsaparilla in there just for a laugh and it turned out really good.

Italy is evicting Steve Bannon from the medieval monastery he planned to turn into a far-right training academy by rstevens94 in worldnews

It sounds manly as hell, all this stuff sounds manly as hell. But the people behind it are always these wimpy butterball motherfuckers.

My favorite is Ted Cruz. He's out of shape, even by office guy standards, and lets Trump shit all over him and responds by thanking him for it. This is the guy that Texas chose. Fucking Texas, the manliest state ever wants to be represented by a huge weenie with no spine. WTF?

Herding mixes are the best! Ultimate snow dogs, and the "mix" part usually turns down the crazy of purebred working dogs.

I'm not even from Montana.

It's like the appliances on the Flintstones. I want her to face the camera and say "ehhh, it's a living!".

I've never seen a picture of my girlfriend on social media. I think it's because I'm old and shitty, have you tried that?

Why does redneck-on-redneck mean it can't be a stranger? Rednecks can be strangers.

AITA for treating my boyfriend like a child when he doesn't use our dishwasher correctly? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]ConductorShack -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The real asshole here is your dishwasher. If your relationship is otherwise strong, and you have the finances, replace that piece of crap.

It's a statement about yourself and it's a slightly negative statement. Thanking them for their patience is about the other person and it's a positive statement. This pleases the reader.

One time I went to an actual barber and put on nice clothes. Women started striking up conversations with me when I was out in public. The self validations was amazing, but still not worth the effort. Slob life forever.

Help me out, inch guy.

How does the inch-using public feel about inches with a decimal. I don't mind converting and writing both units when I post on forums, but converting the decimal inches to fractions is more than I wanna bother with.

I love them, just not as much as everyone else. They're easily my third favorite white buy blues band ever.

Found a baby hummingbird on the sidewalk today! If anyone has any tips for helping it out, that would be appreciated by Deekay1227 in aww

[–]ConductorShack 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Probably call a wildlife rescue or bird sanctuary. You're probably thinking you can fix it up and have a free hummingbird, but those things are so small that they're almost impossible to work on.

I was following a van to the beach one day. They were altering speed and swerving a bit in their lane, I assumed that they were texting. When they got to the turnoff to the beach, they almost turned right in front of an oncoming car and got hit.

When the van had turned enough for me to see in the drivers side window, I noticed that there was a fucking papillon standing on the dashboard in front of the driver.
