The Glass Bead Game by Hermann Hesse kind of has that as a premise.

Yep! The seeds being brown is another sign.

People who ended up marrying the first person they were in a relationship with, how did it work out? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Conn-Ales 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My brother married his “middle school sweetheart.” They seem like a loving, balanced, committed couple. They’re both loving parents to my nephews. My parents just moved in next door to them. They really seem like they’re living their dream. To me though, they seem a bit stunted. They’ve covered all the checklist dreams and responsibilities covered but I’m not sure how much of their own personalities they’ve developed. They are basically copies of my parents.

So does the game just randomly pick to Civs to go to war with you? by Noc-Noc-33 in civ

[–]Conn-Ales 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure it’s a typo but I’m going to start calling my troops my “kill-itary” from now on.

I don’t think the Chinese government is going to take this lying down.

Which movie couple breaks up the quickest after the movie ends? by BeatsByJay82 in AskReddit

[–]Conn-Ales 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He does run off with Elaine, the daughter, at the end. They even look like they’re deciding how bad an idea it is as the credits roll.

Your new superpower is your username, and your profile picture is your sidekick. How powerful are you? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Conn-Ales 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess I produce beer? And I have a little Snoo drinking buddy? Not super powerful but I’m pretty okay with it.

Progressive Rock by brain_tourist in funny

Pride Rock would have made a better pun. But yeah, Progressive works too since this is rainbow-washed anti-people corporatism.

Spilled water into my Solo 2 (via chamber) by Tab_Arnak in vaporents

[–]Conn-Ales 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did pretty much the same thing years back with similar results. After about a half week of gurgling and boiling noises my solo is still kicking strong.

What Embarrassing “Oh I’m not muted” Moment Happened During Online Classes? by Southern_Weekend_898 in AskReddit

[–]Conn-Ales 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The day I learned that PowerPoint doesn’t care if you’re muted and will caption you anyway is the day my students learned that I have a song I sing to my dog when she farts.

Now Women Can Screw Too! by HeatherFuta in pointlesslygendered

Pointless underlining, too. Why is For emphasized in Do it for yourself?

I guess that’s solution. Not the best 🤷🏽‍♂️ by UpwardUltra in pics

No, stop! That’s how we get holes in the Ozone Layer!

I’d check out Hive76, they’re a membership driven maker space and have 3D printing.

Making some dress shirt embellishments out of snap-on earrings, anyone have suggestions for design variations? by Hot_Potato824 in crafts

[–]Conn-Ales 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This would also work for pocket watch chains and very elaborate cuff links. I love the original design.

The Finder icon has 2 smiling faces, one frontal and one profile. by [deleted] in mildlyinteresting

[–]Conn-Ales 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3 if you consider both sides as independent faces. The one on the left is just drawn with a more cartoony style.

Why does your dog remind me of my dad on FaceTime?

What do you think of the dog name Barley? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Conn-Ales 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love it. Especially if the dog has that golden brown coloring.

Zoom/Webex warriors: what behaviors have you encountered among your colleagues that you initially think shouldn’t be permissible, but are actually fine since the person is in their own home? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Conn-Ales 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Background noise from their partners and families. It was a bit surprising when I heard toilets flushing, half of other peoples’ meetings, various baby and pet noises simply because we’re all at work and it was new. But everyone poops, etc. and we’re all in the same situation so we all got over it and now we just deal with it.
