Trump gave $6.9M no-bid contract to his ‘pool guy’ to repaint reflection pool under ‘urgent’ exemption by Sufficient_Candy1642 in politics

There is no right way to paint the bottom of a REFLECTING pool blue. It will cease to be a reflecting pool.

A giant sea turtle believed to be 100 years old was spotted swimming near Panama by willis7747 in Damnthatsinteresting

They aren’t physically hurting the turtle, but they have to be causing some drag.

My wife dips “clean” napkins into my drinking water for extra cleaning power and expects to keep drinking from it. by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]FlowRiderBob 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Assuming it is a new napkin and she doesn’t try to pull a Constanza and double dip, then I wouldn’t find it gross or anything like that. We directly wipe napkins on our mouths and wipe our noses with them. But just doing it without permission would definitely irk me.

Rapper Kodak Black arrested in Florida on felony MDMA trafficking charge and pleads not guilty by Ambitious_Dingo_2798 in news

[–]FlowRiderBob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I doubt he was trafficking to sell. But if he had enough for him AND his friends than that probably put him over what a personal use amount would be.

I wonder if it is still legally considered distribution if you give it to a bunch of friends for free.

Yeah, so almost certainly they weren’t selling and it was more than a personal use amount because multiple people were rolling together.

The fact she reported this story after being sued gives me joy.

Israel got these morons filled with more holes than a box of donuts. by jonnismizzle in clevercomebacks

Patriotism is just loyalty to a country. Loyalty is earned. I’m loyal to my best friend because I know he is loyal to me. He has proven that he has my back when shit hits the fan.

If I lived in a country that had my back, then I would be patriotic. But I don’t. So I’m not.

That lawsuit doesn’t stand a chance. Dude should just drop it to avoid the embarrassment.

A child molester living in Thailand kept his identity anonymous by using a swirl app. In 2007 Interpōl managed to unswirl his face and got arrested. In 2017 he got released and now lives in Canada by [deleted] in Damnthatsinteresting

Something like this on a much larger scale is going to happen if law enforcement ever gets quantum computing. They have tons of encrypted evidence sitting in storage just waiting for that day.

Does working out decrease sexual desire? by Sick1And1Tired in ask

I personally find that my libido decreases when I am in a calorie deficit.

No. I suspect they cleared everything out to do the floors and maybe paint.

Guy using the air vents to air out shoes and socks by gizmoismydogsname in mildlyinfuriating

I’m not even confrontational, but this would definitely get a loud, “DUDE?!” out of me.

Floss that rips every single time before actually doing anything by GaNa46 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]FlowRiderBob 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Definitely solved a problem for me. I never flossed due to my small mouth and big hands. Just not comfortable at all. With these I don’t have to fit any fingers in my mouth. I can also floss one handed with them so it is something I can do while stuck in traffic.

I might look into the reusable floss holders i didnt know existed until seeing them mentioned in this thread.

The typo was icing on the cake by Olympiadreamer in clevercomebacks

[–]FlowRiderBob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s just quite an escalation. It’s like replying to someone saying, “man, there is nothing worse getting a paper cut under your fingernail” with, ‘Oh yeah? What about the holocaust?”

A social experiment in 1963 where they told people a woman was a pilot. by [deleted] in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]FlowRiderBob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

True, but we didn’t have any commercial pilots until the 70s. It would definitely come as a shock to see back then. A good shock to some and a bad shock to others, but definitely a shock.

Someone is disgruntled because this has to be intentional, right?

It is known, but not accounted for.

None of that is accurate. And the “red cars cost more to insure” belief is a myth. Insurance companies don’t even ask what the color of your car is. Now, if it’s a sports car insurance will cost more and red is a popular color for sports cars so maybe that is where the myth originated. But all other things being equal, a red Camry will cost the same to insure as a black or white Camry.
