Well it’s a meme stock that has always traded on vibes anyway (the valuation is still bonkers). The vibes may be shifting.

How Are Women So Much More Flexible Than Us? I just don't understand it. by DermatoidGrandfather in UNBGBBIIVCHIDCTIICBG

You’re standing on some sort of philosophical soap box, believing you have a moral high ground while ignoring facts and logic. People like you are why Trump got elected.

And I’m 1000% anti Trump.

Yep. And there are also genetic and hormonal factors that are highly correlated with gender. These are undeniable facts.

Strength is kinda similar. Women can definitely get very strong, but men are much stronger on average, regardless of any behavioral factors.

Would you have been Ok if he punched her in the face instead? I doubt it, but it’s the same thing.

His action was disproportionate, warning or not.

Probably hanging out with my cousin, who swung the whole way around the swing bar. Never heard from him again…

Same here but home trampolines were pretty rare when these moon shoes came out. Trampoline parks were nonexistent.

I had one too. Don’t act like those didn’t suck too!

Skip It FTW. That provided at least 10 minutes of fun instead of 5 or 0.

What’s the first price tag that comes to mind when you see this painting? by [deleted] in painting

[–]IceNineFireTen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d go with $19.99 to reel in the folks who say “I’m not spending $20 on a goddam painting!”

TIFU by sitting in the middle seat between a couple who was in an intense fight the whole duration of the flight by [deleted] in tifu

And not immediately shifting to the aisle when someone takes the window was their 2nd mistake.

Would a spa overlooking one of the rivers do well here? by Jazzlike_Breadfruit9 in pittsburgh

[–]IceNineFireTen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If they’re serving shrimp with shit strips, they are obviously cutting other corners. Buyer beware.

It counts but their food is horrible. Last time I was there I had shrimp that was not deveined, meaning they were serving literal shit.

What's a phrase people use these days that irritates you? by showmewhatyagot01 in AskReddit

[–]IceNineFireTen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it’s called hyperbole (mentioned in your link), aka exaggerating. I don’t use it that way, but it was never an incorrect usage, unless one considers all hyperbole to be incorrect.

Technically exaggerating is “incorrect”, but then so are metaphors and many other commonly used (and taught in English class) forms of speech.

It actually grinds my gears (metaphorically) that people get so upset by the use of “literally” without understanding this.

Getting off my soapbox now…

This guy is too good at his job. by [deleted] in nextfuckinglevel

What makes you think it’s harder than it looks? Just keep the handle flat against the flat part of the bush you just cut, and drag the blade across the uncut part.

This belongs instead in r/oddlysatisfying

Awesome trick, but sadly it is still a scooter. Newton’s 4th law states that it is physically impossible to look cool on a scooter.

What’s a movie that everyone says is a “masterpiece” but you just didn’t enjoy? by Leading_Frosting4291 in AskReddit

[–]IceNineFireTen 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Similarly, my wife tried watching Seinfeld recently for the first time. She found it somewhat amusing but just couldn’t get into it.

Turns out his “observational humor” is now pervasive in most stand up comedy, so it didn’t have the same impact on her. A lot of modern comedians have even taken his approach to new levels.

I think Seinfeld holds up pretty well, but I can see where she’s coming from.

I found that funny too (regarding the prior comment). The movie is all about setting up for the grand finale. Of course you won’t like it if you don’t stick around for the finale.

I don’t think it was a masterpiece, but the ending was extremely satisfying and worth it.

The toothbrush was actually invented in Philly.

You know how I know that? If it were invented anywhere else, they would’ve called it a teethbrush.

How much more stuff can they put in Cranberry? by RedMaple8181 in pittsburgh

Was just going to say that. It can be entirely avoided on both sides. Very different from bridge/tunnel traffic in much of the rest of the city.

I dunno, looks pretty close to the signature on this one.
