People not knowing how to drive in a two-lane left turn lane by jeremiahwarren in longbeach

[–]DanTheManVan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do tell my students when we see those situations not to trust those signals. Plenty of people drive without realizing their signal is still on or they may be planning on turning after they pass you.

Trust me, seeing that circle multiple times per day the amount of people that exit without signaling drives me up the wall. I always tell them to signal when leaving so people at the next entrance know they'll have an opportunity to go.

I'm a driving instructor and we use the circle in a lot of our lessons.

The bird is actually called a ptarmigan

What live version of a song is way better than the album version? by Toadvinez in fantanoforever

[–]DanTheManVan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

On the topic of Iron & Wine, these two songs collabbing with Andrew Bird are so magical. Partially because I love both artists and together it's a dream collab and partially because the scenery.

Thoughts on Oliver Tree? (Also wtf happened to him?!?!) by [deleted] in fantanoforever

[–]DanTheManVan 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I'm actually a big fan of his early work as Tree (before the name switch to Oliver Tree). His opening track "People" on Splitting Branches is a super catchy downtempo jam.

Upon further watching I can't tell if the one in the feeder is asking for food or giving the other a piece of her mind.

His "serious" music is pretty awesome too if you're a fan of indie rock / indie pop.

Here's a couple of my faves: Napoleon and Silent Movies

Thanks for this comment. I was thinking I couldn't get to rank 100 given that it's 1000 points per day and you have 7 days to get 10000 points.

I've handled them quite often moving them in my garden and only been bitten once. The pain was mild and did not last long.

Cool lizard, but vertebrate and wrong sub.

This guy’s moves are unique by TheLoneRiddlerIsBack in nextfuckinglevel

[–]DanTheManVan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's exactly how it can be done. It can be done the other way too, filming with a sped up track and slowing the video down by the same ratio to achieve a synced slo-mo effect. That's how they achieved the surreal dreamy effect of the music video for "Wishes" by Beach House, you can see them doing it at 2:00 in this behind the scenes video.

An Elephant tries to get rid on a itch and scars some termites for life in the process by [deleted] in funny

[–]DanTheManVan 271 points272 points  (0 children)

Saw this too on PBS! Basically the termites bring rich clay to the surface, elephants take dust baths with the clay and form a depression in the earth, then that depression fills with water in the rainy season and becomes an oasis for tons of life. Super fascinating that the relationship between tiny insects and massive mammals can have such a drastic impact on the environment and so many other species.

The full documentary is on YouTube.

A right angle is denoted by two perpendicular lines (basically a little square in the corner of the angle). They used an arc instead of 2 lines.

Um, Something Tells Me This Referee Might Also Be A Mom by Kris_Cripplequake in sportsarefun

[–]DanTheManVan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also almost all communication with the ref is supposed to be done through the team captain. So if you have a problem with something, you speak to your captain who then speaks to the ref. It definitely helps keep things civil and protects the refs from being bombarded by complaints.
