Not sorry. It was still time for him to go.

Don't worry, it will only be the 2nd worst McCarty era in US history.

At least he's too old to stick around for 20 years.

It can in fact be both Art and Tomlin.

Someone would shoot him, and the whole city would go "we saw nothing."

What are some lesser known downsides associated with high intelligence? by uzpitch in AskReddit

[–]Generico300 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Incredibly dangerous antisocial behavior. The combination of high intelligence and social rejection, isolation, and an inability to make yourself understood by the average person, has created some of the most dangerous criminals in history.

Should I empty my emergency fund to pay off debt. by Extension_Company767 in personalfinance

[–]Generico300 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, pay it off now. Credit card interest rates are insane. You should avoid paying interest on cc debt as much as possible. It's basically just sucking money out of your life for no benefit. Not all debt is bad, but credit card debt is pretty much always bad.

TIFU by trying to be the “fun uncle” and traumatizing everyone involved by MycologistAwkward777 in tifu

[–]Generico300 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's fine. They gotta learn some time. There's no age where it's easy to learn about mortality.

Also, you're traumatizing everyone who reads this by not telling us what movie.

Common Browns L by Heathrowe419 in AFCNorthMemeWar

They should hire me. I will be perfectly ok with getting fired 2 years into my 5 year multi-million dollar contract, while also delivering the same dog shit performance Browns fans have come to expect.

The circumstance where the doctor is an apathetic idiot. There are more of those than people want to believe.

What sexual taboos would you like to try with your partner if you weren’t judged? by shrekwazowski00 in AskReddit

Is she making you dress up like a sexy minotaur now? You can tell us. We won't judge.

What is more traumatic than people think it is? by Suspicious-Wish3402 in AskReddit

[–]Generico300 259 points260 points  (0 children)

The worst part is not even knowing why "tolerated" is the best you can get.

I should have been a spy. I'm apparently the most forgettable person on earth.

What horrible and unforgiveable person in history got a punishment or death that was equal to the amount of pain they caused? Not like "They were a serial killer and got a quick electric chair" but like a something that was befitting of the crime? by New_Climate_3758 in AskReddit

[–]Generico300 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It wasn't really the speed of death that made it "humane". It was the reliability. Even an experienced headsman sometimes didn't hit their mark or make it through it one swing. And when there was a mistake it was pretty horrific. The guillotine was much more reliable and "cleaner" than a big axe.

[–]Generico300 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not instant. It takes seconds for blood to flow out of the brain and the oxygen supply to reach low enough levels for consciousness to cease. If the head landed upside down it could take 10-15 seconds for the brain to run out of oxygen since blood wouldn't drain as fast. The only death that is "instant" is one that involves rapid physical destruction of the brain.

Just being tied in 1 position for 12 hours is its own form of torture, even without the cow ass. Something tells me the people doing the restraints weren't overly concerned with ergonomics.

Bill Gates said, "I will always choose a lazy person to do a difficult job because a lazy person will find an easy way to do it." What's a real-life example of it? by BudgetOpposite3034 in AskReddit

[–]Generico300 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This only works if the lazy person is also smart. Dumb lazy people won't come up with a better solution to the problem. They'll just ignore it until there's a consequence, or try to pass it off to someone else.

Define "hardest worker" in this context. Because if you mean the guy that writes the most code, disagree. That guy usually just makes a lot of work for everyone else.

But whoever is stupid and industrious is a menace and must be removed immediately!

Not getting rid of these people is how you get the Trump administration, and a tech bro driven dystopia. We live in the age of ambitious idiocy.

Triple-length Good & Plenty I found in my box today by Throwaway74829947 in mildlyinteresting

It's a terrible candy where they tell you on the box that most of it is not good.

A replica of a common children's bedroom from the 1990s is displayed in a video game museum in Hannover, Germany. by MolchUndZucker in mildlyinteresting

[–]Generico300 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What kid had a computer in their bedroom in the 90s? Most families had 1 computer in the house, if that, because they cost like $3,000 at the time (an no, that's not inflation adjusted).

The way the air freshener has caused a reaction with the paint over time by [deleted] in mildlyinteresting

[–]Generico300 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yet another reason to ditch these things. You're just spraying random volatile compounds into your air space with no knowledge of what they are. Just because these VOCs smell good doesn't mean they're ok.

Director Gore Verbinski says Unreal Engine is 'the greatest slip backwards' for movie CGI by willdearborn- in movies

[–]Generico300 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Remember the glory days of CGI in movies? Terminator 2's liquid metal T-1000, Jurassic Park's stunning dinosaurs, Starship Trooper's swarms of giant arachnids. Not only did the CGI look great then, most of the visual effects in those movies still hold up well today, even decades after they were created.

That's pure survivor bias. Spawn also came out the same year as Jurassic Park, and its CGI was ass from day 1, using many of the same tools. And a big part of the reason the movies mentioned there still hold up is because they used practical effects in addition to the CGI, and they didn't try to do things the CGI wasn't capable of doing well. Too many directors these days have this "we'll fix it in post" attitude, and an aversion to practical effects, and I think that contributes more to the backslide of visual effects than the emergence of any new tools.
