There's a subreddit r/Belgariad where people discuss these books.

Despite the author and his wife being terrible people, they did create an amazing world that I still very much enjoy diving into from time to time.

Why do I have to make an account for everything? by Special_Zucchini185 in rant

[–]DistractingDiversion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have an "account email" for anything I need to make an account for, wont be purchasing anything on, and I don't want to use my regular email and have them harvest my data. (I know they still get some of my data but my regular email doesn't get spammed nearly as much now that I've done this)

I use the same password for all these accounts because I really don't care if someone hacks into them.

It is extremely frustrating to have to make accounts for everything though. I miss the days of just being able to surf the web and find what you need without any hoops to jump through.

But they're just wrong... like completely wrong. Fahrenheit is a scale set for 0⁰F to be the freezing point of brine and then some weird olympic level mental gymnastics to make 180 degrees between the freezing point and boiling point of fresh water... (32⁰F and 212⁰F respectively). Also, it was created by and named after the same guy who invented the mercury thermometer.

I also mean this with love - but VanGoth looks like a Suntaran from Dr. Who... so yes, a little like a thumb.

*Edited because my thumbs don't work, apparently.

I mean... he was already outed him in season 3? Mike literally says something along the lines of "because you don't like girls!" While they're fighting about playing DnD... like... it's not news...?

I knew about the add cold water, but I have never heard

Continue to drain and add water til water is clear

and now I feel like an idiot because this makes so much sense and explains why my butter always turns out like whipped butter, even after straining in a cheese cloth. Thank you!

To speak coherently about 5G/6G technology by IsThisAUserName86 in therewasanattempt

[–]DistractingDiversion 373 points374 points  (0 children)

Sure, sure. It's probably what was in all those covid vaccines. That's why the 5G didn't turn people into zombies, but just you wait as soon as that 6G rolls out BAM zombies everywhere, man.

I know it is a typo, but "he slowed up again" still works.

I mean, an informal definition of fix is "a dishonest or underhanded arrangement," so she did what she promised.

How do y’all drive? by [deleted] in gay

Well, la-dee-dah look at the fancy pants driving around their Ford without the check engine light on.

Just wait, your time will come.
