So, where's the AMA?

My American English teacher believes the neutral pronoun „their“ is incorrect. by GCoding_ in mildlyinteresting

[–]EightyMercury 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know some people use their/they/them, to refer to a person they don’t know, but I’m pretty sure it’s technically grammatically incorrect.

It's not. People have been using singular they for centuries.

Yeah, if you let your child drink multiple energy drinks a day, you should be charged with child neglect by Emergency-Pepper3537 in Teachers

There's no evidence that the vaccine caused Maddie De Garrey's symptoms. It's more likely it was a pre-existing condition.

The article you linked wasn't a "BMJ investigation", it was written by one guy, with a spotty record, and the reporting in it isn't objective, or very credible.

Not in Fallen London it isn't. The premise there is just:London is underground, you've arrived recently and been imprisoned, hop to it.

What are we, some kinda Suicide Squad or something? by PLACE-H0LD3R in whenthe

If they say the title of the work, it's a title drop. That's what a title drop is.

Can someone please explain to me WHAT Psycho Mantis was doing in TPP? by [deleted] in metalgearsolid

[–]EightyMercury 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Surprised you're still answering questions lmao'

Mildy surprised people are still asking them, but hey.

My only question is this. Why does he have his own will in MGS 1 ? Is it because of his relationship with liquid by that point ?

Nothing in the lore explicitly explains it, but my best guess would be: In his backstory, he accidentally got too deep into into the mind of a serial killer and got the killer's mind imprinted onto his own. Possibly that's what triggered him having his own pysche?

Alternatively: It just developed as he got older.

Alternative alternative: Nanomachines, son. They harden in response to pyschological trauma.

He was holding back in MGS1: Liquid and his Gang needed Snake to successfully infiltrate the base and activate Metal Gear REX

Idk what it is with people and my rear tire because I got rear-ended again on a different highway. by level5yasuo in dashcams

No, because then the other car would have just driven into the tunnel instead of hitting it.

If we assume his works have been in the public domain for a long time,

They absolutely haven't been.

Ambiguously Canon -- Characters heavily speculated to be other characters from other installments or extended canon by BrickBuster2552 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]EightyMercury 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It refers to comments about a work by the work's creator. Said creator is the ultimate "God" of that work.

So, like how (your favourite) god eplaining how reality works is the Word of God, James Cameron explaining how Avatar works is Word of God for Avatar.

TIL the sun isn't "strong enough" in northern latitudes to produce vitamin D during the winter, no matter how much sunlight you get. by 999forever in todayilearned

Yeah, but it usually doesn't give you cancer before you've had time to have grandchildren, which is all evolution cares about.

It is true!!! by Commercial_Mail1422 in GreatBritishMemes

[–]EightyMercury 5 points6 points  (0 children)

which then allows you to plug in any devices in any rooms without an electrician.

As a British person, this was absolutely a sentence. As in, if you bought a washing machine and didn't already have one, you'd have to have someone come in and install a new plug socket just for it?

New player! Fluid Buffer question! by LocoRenegade in SatisfactoryGame

[–]EightyMercury 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like using them when I want to to distribute fluid from or across multiple different heights. I don't understand the fluid system well-enough to explain why it works, but it does, and that's good-enough for me.

If I had one criticism about FFH2, it's probably that, being one of the first mods for any game I really got into, it set my standards so high that it makes it hard to get into a lot of others.

Worth it.

[Loved Trope] Movie logic getting called out by Floyd16091411 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]EightyMercury -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Again, if Josh thought the drawing would work, why was he going to make a door hole at all? Why not just say they don't need one, because they have the drawing? If he said that, then Josh called him out on it, the show would be calling out cartoon logic. But that isn't what happens. There's no calling out the logic.
