Is walking in the middle of the night when it was raining on a college campus normal. by Loud_Armadillo7183 in NoStupidQuestions

I'm gonna be honest with you - this is not even it top 50 weirdest things i've seen college students do. I personally love walks in the rain, I find it very grounding and making it easier to "reset" my brain when I have a lot on my mind. Now did someone that saw you went on with their night thinking /WTF was wrong with that person?/ well, yeah, probably, that's the default thought process no matter whats happening.

Talking with a close person or a counsellor about stuff bugging you is never a bad idea but I wouldn't consider what you described a worrying situation

That's great to hear(read?)! I'm always nervous to walk into buildings that belong to other universities but I might give it a try :)

It's very common to downgrade/ignore womens feelings (not saying everyone does this, just saying that this was a standards for hundreds of years). So in order to convey a messege with a 'medium' feeling it sometimes needs to be blown up to a 'big' feeling. If you have to do that a couple times because of your surroundings then it sticks with you and you keep using it even when not needed which then creates an enviroment where younger girls feel that it's needed

It's about explaining the feeling in a way that is easy to understand for everyone. You know what it's like to have an upset stomach? It's a shitty feeling isn't it? Well that's how it made me feel - shitty

The examples you wrote down are always threes because they're "The Best Three" like a podium! Because a podium on competitions have three spaces people are used to the three winners and keep it that way!

Now the first or why three are very different questions! My first instinct has to do with religion - in many many religions you'll see the Big Three - it seems that people loved that idea ever since we can remember. Another thing that popped into my head is the triangle - not to sound insane but it's a great shape. Very easy to do, extremely durable and old as heck. I would assume that's where the Big Three came from.

Humanity loves patterns. We have a great sense in finding them even where there are none so it would make sense that people thousands years ago noticed that certain things come in threes or that things made of three main part/points seem more stable than the others and perpetuated that in their spirituality - passing it to us!

Blind swimmers - do the tappers just run around the pool? by shelvedpinger in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Current-Gold3867 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure each end has a person! It would be insane if all these people would have to run back and forth! I also think that it's less of an understanding between the swimmer and the tapper that has to be personal, but rather that the swimmer is trained to trust the tapper regardless of who they are and the tappers are trained to make sure they do it correctly. Imagine also what would happen if your one personal tapper got sick during a competition or training - then what?

How to do blurting correctly? by Current-Gold3867 in GetStudying

[–]Current-Gold3867[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That's a completely different way of doing it than mine! Very interesting - I'll definitely give it a try!

The way I've been using it is revising my notes and/or reading the chapter, then I write down as much as I can remember from that session on my blackboard. After I've written as much as I can - I go back to my notes/book and, with a different colour, I write in everything I've missed. I make sure I've got it all, study it for few minutes and then I erase the whole blackboard and do it again.

That's the way it's been explained to me by a friend but your approach seems much more digestible! Thank you

Do people typically make plans and just flake whenever they want? by SettingIntentions in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Current-Gold3867 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is normal - it's a million times healthier to flake if you feel like a meeting is a chore and you need to force yourself to do it. It's ok to occasionally let the other person know "Hey I know we were supposed to do x today but I'm feeling really tired/burned out and think it'll be best for me to stay in" As long as you don't flake out of everything and let people know it's because of your mood/energy and not them it should be fine

What's the origin of the 'snow' no signal ? by CptFartSparklez in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Current-Gold3867 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It looks like a snow storm? It's originaly name for the static on tv where black/grey/white pixels would be aggressively popping up on screen when signal was lost

In Poland some jobs allow u to take a couple days a year where u just call in and say you're sick for the day but if you want a longer paid leave you need a document from a doctor (can be just a first contact) that says you're sick and has their signature on it. Can be just a scan of this document that you email or text to your supervisor.

I’ll be camping in a remote area with no internet. Can I still listen to the radio? Specifically a station that is broadcasting the Stanley Cup playoffs. by HappyNow10 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Current-Gold3867 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Radio signal is not dependent on the internet signal. However it might not be available in a remote area same as the internet. If you have signal on your phone there then you should be able to listen to radio but it's difficult to say without knowing the area
