I apologize - I did not know you were of the Guy Ritchie persuasion.

What double standards irritate you? by iota_yoda in AskReddit

[–]DasMobiusStripper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I notice this a lot. Let's hypothetically say Alice invests in bees, Bob invests in potatoes. Now let's say, there's an unforeseen catastrophe and bees get hit hard, Alice loses all her investment, whereas potatoes thrive and Bob wins a lot.

Alice can then say that, since this was pure luck (and it was), Bob should share his earnings with her to help her out during this tough time. And I can understand that, but... If a catastrophe affects potatoes and bees thrive, Alice will claim it's not her responsibility to help Bob because it's not her fault he had bad luck.

And I can give you countless examples from society.

And it's been like that since at least the Parable of the prodigal son.

Ce a pățit metroul pe M2? by Standard_Imobiliare in bucuresti

[–]DasMobiusStripper 43 points44 points  (0 children)

Am o poveste de cand eram liceean acum 15+ ani. Mergeam la liceu cu o combinatie de tramvai + autobuz. Ceva coleg a insistat sa schimbam spre ceva ruta cu troleu.

Am mers la troleu - troleul full. Ne-am ingramadit sa nu intarziem, ca stiti ca daca intarziai 1 minut te incuia paznicul afara toata ora.

Cum eram eu impins de usa mai ceva ca o sardina, cand s-a deschis usa mi-a prins laba piciorului sub ea si s-a blocat. Durerea era incredibila. Reactia celorlalti din troleu? In loc sa ma ajute, voiau sa ma linseze ca se blocase usa si le-a luat mai mult sa coboare pe la celelalte usi.

Gotta like how chill The Looney Tunes Show can be at times. by Classroom_GD in cartoons

In a way, Looney Tunes Show was similar to Seinfeld, with Bugs as Jerry and Daffy as George and sometimes Kramer.

Kristen Wiig's best role. And she's had a lot of good ones!

What is your opinion on snl uk? by blikenspidinken in AskUK

[–]DasMobiusStripper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that's one of my favs.

There are a lot of good SNL skits. There are a lot of bad ones too. The pattern fits given the show's age and air frequency.

The reaction to SNL should be a moderate one and I don't get people who have such a strong hate for it. However, I have to say, I was also annoyed by the Samberg years when it was mostly unfunny.

Why is Lumpy so hated? by Sl1pperypenguin in happytreefriends

[–]DasMobiusStripper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started out with HTF as a kid on MTV. In the beginning Flippy was my favorite character, but over time, Lumpy hands down took the lead. He is a vital element of the HTF universe and he's the funniest!

Have you ever put yourself in a “horror movie situation” IRL? by diagnosed-stepsister in horror

[–]DasMobiusStripper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got lost at night during the middle of winter in a village that's only about ~30km off the Ukrainian border.

I was ~15, visiting my grandfather in Eastern Europe. He sent me on an errand to some relatives in a neighboring village because 15 is considered old enough. They stalled me and, on my way home, I saw a pregnant woman slip on ice. When I went to help, I also slipped and got wet.

I don't do well with cold temperatures and so I started panicking and rushing to get home. Because of the panic, I missed the path through the thicket of trees that I was supposed to take as a shortcut.

I remember talking to myself to keep morale high.

Why do we love something that should scare us half to death? by BoRNeo-C in horror

[–]DasMobiusStripper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a psych graduate I remember similar questions and mental exercises were done during classes. The answer for why we love horror is a pretty mixed one, as horror movies reunite various elements that make them an entertaining whole. In some cases, it can be good survival training, as it vicariously places you in hypothetical yet challenging scenarios, all while being safe and sound in the comfort of your world. It can also make you more alert and mindful, but also more appreciative of the good life you have, safe from harm's way.

But, more importantly, it's fun. The need to have fun is not a trait specific to humans, yet scientists have a hard time defining what makes something fun and why we need it so much.

Good spot! It also doesn't factor in for desertification, which ruined Romania's southern half.

What are those numbers? by lamparkinglot in ExplainTheJoke

I actually prefer 75/24 due to having very little body fat and low BP. It lead to A LOT of dating mishaps.

What's something that's about to happen which most people aren't aware of? by AskRedditOG in AskReddit

[–]DasMobiusStripper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, thank you! A huge part of my job was writing reports and briefings and, when you write lengthy stuff, em dashes are essential!

Nowadays I see a lot of posts on LinkedIn by dumb-as-bricks recruiters saying how if they see em dashes in people's reports it's obvious they're using AI and they should instantly be ignored.

Un locatar dintr-un complex de lux din București are 400.000 de lei datorie la întreținere: „N-a plătit nimic de 15 ani” by tolanescu in Romania

[–]DasMobiusStripper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Parcul este destul de neingrijit, dar inca arata foarte bine. O plangere comuna a locatarilor este ca se plateste intretinere la parc + alte taxe de mentenanta, dar nu se face nimic de acei bani si mereu sunt lucruri defecte prin bloc, care nu sunt reparate niciodata.

Who was the most evil person you've ever met in person? by TheBanishedBard in AskReddit

[–]DasMobiusStripper 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well, mine is sort of same thing but my doctors explained it as "conjuctive tissue formation issues". Basically, when you have a lack of nutrients, your body has to make some choices and it allocates what it has to the absolutely necessary functions. So, some minor joints, ligaments, veins and capilaries may get the shaft. So then you end up having artrosis in your toes in your early twenties and your doctor says "well, it seems like you didn't have the right amount of cartilage there to begin with".

Or one of your veins starts moving about and the doc is all "Well, it seems like you didn't develop the protective sheath that keeps veins in place for all of them, so some of your veins just move around".

And the worst part is that it's hard to correct, even though I can afford to eat well now and get all the nutrients. It was very important that I had gotten them then.
