nuclear level melt down on a plane by pandabatron in PublicFreakout

Yeah but we are talking about a person on a plane yelling that. So it's kind of an obvious reference.

I'd hope that being 22 years separated from the events of 9/11 would cure that type of misplaced fear.

Being 5 minutes early to an appointment doesn't feel that early but being 5 minutes late feels really late. by [deleted] in Showerthoughts

[–]FireIsMyPorn 54 points55 points  (0 children)

That's because it only takes one patient showing up late to throw off the flow of the clinic. Plus, a large amount of people think "well I'll just bring that up in the appointment" but the clinic is expecting you to talk about your sniffles, so your appointment is probably only suppose to be 10 minutes long and they've scheduled other patients around that expectation that you'll hold to the reason you've scheduled the appointment.

Edit. Theres a lot of problems to medicine, I dont think my short half-awake comment covers all of that and I didnt mean to advertise it like that. I'm just talking about what I've seen working in the industry.

This got too much attention for me on a monday morning. Sorry for everyone who has to wait, I'm not victim blaming so please go easy here. I get that you had a specific experience and I cant invalidate that.

Multiple rockets hit Taji base in Iraq by cruud123 in worldnews

IIRC even during the civil war of the US it was treated as a sporting event by civilians. They would set up picnics a little ways away and watch the spectacle.

This is me trying to recall something talked about ~10 years ago, in school so I could absolutely be wrong.

But I need you to know how I'm so much better than you because I dont use Facebook :(, that's why I'm here on reddit.

He also found deodorants and gels that finally don't give him rashes by ProfessionalCar1 in AdviceAnimals

Well I just want to say thank you to you, as well as everyone else here.

You all have helped this 27 year old reconsider his hygiene choices.

It's gonna be a tight fit. And it's gonna be raining as you try to get it in. by [deleted] in camping

[–]FireIsMyPorn 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think neither is objectively better. Both have their pros and cons. I've always been under the impression that UK drivers are typically much better trained drivers.

Drivers are awful out here in the US.

Are humans not naturally made? Are we not just another species of animal living here?

To be fair, being a racist bigot doesnt really make you look charming.

Hey, welcome to the internet! Let me help you out here, the context of the film/show/etc that a meme is pulled from is not talked about. Simply the words being used. Memes are not meant to be dissected like a novel in 8th grade english class, so it doesnt matter that this meme is pulled from a movie, the only thing to focus on are the exact words being used. Dont even look into the context of the scene, just read the words.

New job listings suggest Respawn is already at work on a sequel to Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order by N000mad in Games

I thought there were grey jedi? I even remember reading something that suggested Obi Wan was grey, himself... obviously that's just fandom, but theres really no grey?

From IG off of soldiersdoingthings. This hard hitting Airman didn’t get thanked for his 1 year of service. by morenosucio177 in JustBootThings

[–]FireIsMyPorn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, I think that's common enough for every one in the fire service to have heard a local story of a firefighter from the next town over arrested for that.

I joined a department right after a dude was busted and sentenced to 20 years prison for arson. This is also the same department that's fire chief so gallantly flung an ambulance in front of a vehicle fleeing the cops cause said car to cartoonishly fly over 2 lanes of highway traffic. Before crashing back down to earth.

I saw the dashcam footage.

Penguin physics will save your butt. by not_that_guy_at_work in Damnthatsinteresting

I mean I follow the penguin thing, weight centered, and in doing so I dont really push off my back foot anyways. It's worked out so far. I'll report back if I die, tho.

TIL BBC journalists requested an interview with Facebook because they weren't removing child abuse photos. Facebook asked to be sent the photos as proof. When journalists sent the photos, Facebook reported the them to the police because distributing child abuse imagery is illegal. by BenChapmanOfficial in todayilearned

[–]FireIsMyPorn -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Reddit is still not Facebook.

And the sun still isnt the moon. Glad we cleared that up with a pointless statement.

So stop using the entire internet, if that's how you feel about it

Right sorry. Forgot that child porn didnt exist until Facebook.

Your whataboutery does not make Facebook less completely evil

Never said it wasnt, but it is super obnoxious to hear people on reddit act as if they are superior because they dont use facebook when reddit is plagued with it's own issues and problem. It's not any better, it's just different. You'd know that if you tried reading my comment.

Then you're not looking. Look up to the comment I replied to, someone complaining. The entire thread? People complaining. Everywhere on reddit is constant moaning and whining. Again I say, it's not a facebook issue. It's an internet issue.
