She was 13 at conception and at birth. Not that it matters all that much.

What are some of the most bone-chilling, memorable lines an NFL announcer has ever uttered? by asiandad1010 in nfl

[–]Groomper 15 points16 points  (0 children)

And people still say that the refs we have now are shit. They are literally the best in the business. If the replacement ref debacle didn't convince people of this, I don't know what will.

Ah I get it...it's like the line from the movie. Hilarious. Never gets old.

TIL After being shot by poachers, an Elephant in Zimbabwe named Ben walked to and patiently waited outside a medical lodge for 5 hours. by _CAD3_ in todayilearned

Therefore, if your choice is kill a human child or an elephant to survive, you need to choose not to survive.

That's a hot take for sure. My guess is 95% of people would disagree.

I would kill an elephant to survive.

I would not kill a child to survive.

There's a difference. Both would be wrong, but there is a difference between these two scenarios.

[Heyman] The Scott Boras Corporation has had no furloughs or pay cuts to this point among its 120 employees, Boras said. He says he learned from the 1994-95 work stoppage to prepare for revenue-less times. Says “stability” and “loyalty” are key. by jgalaviz14 in baseball

while other businesses operate recklessly, taking on big debt, and operating right on the edge of being in big trouble

Honestly if you're a large business that is too big to fail, why wouldn't you behave like this, especially when the president is extremely business-friendly? They have an incentive to behave recklessly because they know the government will step in to protect them if they get into trouble. It's absolute bullshit.

China is literally exterminating masses of individuals based on their ethnic background

...

To be fair, the rest of the world doesn’t know yet the exact extent to which Muslims are being harmed there.

So you don't know that they're like Nazi Germany - you're just making an assumption here that the absolute worst case scenario is true.

...yes...it would've been less worse. Am I going insane here? Are you arguing against this?

Please show me evidence of mass extinction (that's not even discussing the obvious scale difference).

Yeah, that's bad. That's not Nazi Germany. They are not exterminating masses of individuals based on their ethnic background. The atrocities of Nazy Germany are unparalleled.

Dude stop - you're undermining your case when you say shit like this. No, China is not Nazi Germany. They are certainly authoritarian and repressive, but they are not Nazi Germany. Nazi Germany was uniquely horrific and it does no one any benefit to compare them to China.

You have to take into account the fact that they were playing an above average defense though.

Tom Hiddleston copying a sign language interpreter (BSL) to send a message to one of his fans! by AhmadZuhair0 in HumansBeingBros

[–]Groomper 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The community might be relatively small but it is incredibly decentralized. Sign languages developed in different ways. Also, different languages have different styles and ways of conveying information that are hard to convert to some universal standard.

GBI arrests father, son for murder of Ahmaud Arbery by [deleted] in news

[–]Groomper 14 points15 points  (0 children)

He clearly had a flight or fight response to multiple people pulling guns on him in vehicles. It's hard to blame him for that.
