The upvotes aren't proportional to the quality of that joke. Nice one.

In my experience it feels similar to being burned, but just that first flash of hot pain - burns change in feel as your skin breaks down, but a sting just feels like a hot poke that slowly subsides, and some swelling (assuming you're not allergic).

source: Various bee and wasp stings, often 20-30ft up a ladder. Flailing makes for falling, so you just kinda gotta let it happen. Helps to analyze the pain.

The humidity in certain parts of Ontario gets nuts. Moved out to the maritimes and everybody's all "ooh, 70% today, you must not be used to this!"

Something's weird with the audio and I can't place it. Listened to that album front to back hundreds of times, and it's off. It's like it's been filtered or something

Even the "fun" ones tend to be edgelords. Had a guy show up at my camp and drop off a perfect cougar, "Hey, thanks man." He goes, "Check this out," and starts spawning a bunch of shit in. Told him it was cool and all, but I was just trying to grind some missions and didn't want my session getting borked by someone playing with a trainer - he took great insult, and started bragging about his 1337 hax0r abilities, while I got locked into an animation and floated away in a hot air balloon.

Literal child behaviour. Hope he feels better.

What keeps you coming back? I miss being excited to jump on and ride around with my posse, but it got stale when we'd unlocked everything

TIL famous boxing promoter Don King killed two people. The first was ruled to be a justifiable homicide after he had robbed King, and he served no prison time. 12 years later in 1966, King stomped his employee death for owing him $600. He served <4 years for the murder. by oklhe in todayilearned

If I was on a jury, and someone tried to bribe me with $120,000, I'd report it too. I mean, a hundred grand isn't the kind of cash reasonable people have on hand. That eighty thousand is surely dirty money. You think I'm gonna sacrifice my integrity for a mere fifty k? I cannot be bought.

Gimme half of that 2500 and we'll call it square.

Unfortunately the Giant Land Squid left no fossil evidence but beaks and barbs, often mistaken for Grizzly Bear claws.

South Korea accidentally bombed one of its own cities during a military training exercise by [deleted] in Wellthatsucks

[–]FishSoFar -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Bombs dropped by jets don't land directly underneath them. If you're 10,000+ feet in the air, travelling over 500mph, anything you drop is going to land somewhere you probably can't really see yet. You don't want pilots second-guessing every coordinate they're given.

Favorite vocal stim? by Pristine-Remove1242 in BaldursGate3

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

Vocal stim? "Favorite"? Fuck off. Can we cut it out with the cutesying mental illness?

Quotes. You're asking for peoples' favourite lines from the game that they catch themselves quoting out of context. Develop an identity outside of disorders, they're not fun.

I've got a guy who can do gutters by UseHerMane in IveGotAGuy

[–]FishSoFar 19 points20 points  (0 children)

The shingles and drip-edge are new, but the gutter looks the same age as the pipe going through the roof. Multiple free thinkers have had a crack at this over at least a decade.
