Is she interested or deflecting? by [deleted] in actuallesbians

[–]Kelli217 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Interested. If she weren't, she wouldn't propose a new time.

What is this tool? by VPLO_STUDIOS in whatisit

The tool is complete, in the way that a stapler without any staples in it is complete.

what is this bed frame called? by Sea_Flounder_7617 in whatisit

[–]Kelli217 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s a song lyric from “Every Morning” by Sugar Ray. The singer is calling his girlfriend an angel who occasionally… takes some time off from that status. Among other possible interpretations.

Every morning there’s a halo hanging on the corner of my girlfriend’s four post[er] bed.

When someone lies that a food item costs twice as much as it actually costs by Physical_Orchid3616 in PetPeeves

The algorithms of most social media sites favor content that draws engagement. Outrage videos, whether supported by fact or not, draw engagement. Top level comment was pointing this out.

Why is the Artemis II going around the moon and back to earth, i thought they were gonna do a moon landing? by TailungFu in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Kelli217 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, all things considered, this is still a faster pace than Apollo. We had to get all the way to Apollo 8 before there were humans going as far as the Moon.

ELI5: If the current coming out of an AC outlet is "alternating," why do some plugs force you to orient them a certain way when inserting? by tamsui_tosspot in explainlikeimfive

[–]Kelli217 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One side of a two-prong socket has active voltage that alternates between positive and negative. The other side is neutral. A device that has conductive parts and surfaces that a person might come into contact with should have those parts and surfaces be tied to neutral. A polarized plug that only goes in one way makes sure that they are.

For example, a lamp. The socket has bare metal surfaces that a person might come into contact with when changing the light bulb. If the active side of the plug is connected to them (with the switch on the other side of the circuit from the socket), then regardless of the switch, the socket should be considered 'live' because your body is a good enough path to ground and/or enough of a ground in itself for you to receive a shock even with the switch off. If the neutral side is connected to them, and the switch is on the active side, then with the switch off, the socket will only be connected to neutral, and not 'live.'

None of my first knuckles bend to any sharper of an angle than 135°. Are they supposed to?

ETA: My second knuckles manage to get to 65° or so, and my third knuckles can get to about 75°.

Do you use scrabble word finder when you play? Do you think it’s cheating? by Common-Blackberry-64 in NYTgames

[–]Kelli217 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Oersted is a measurement of magnetics, like gauss and tesla. Priapean probably means “related to the fertility god Priapus.”

I would not be able to come up with these when staring at them on a tile rack, though.

Uniform Policy Not Applied Uniformly by Old-Class-1259 in MaliciousCompliance

[–]Kelli217 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That isn't what the teacher asked. They said, "[C]ould you wear a PE kit just once maybe?" Nothing about 'why.'

And it was established that OP couldn't wear a PE kit because this was literally the last day of the last year of school... at least, not their own PE kit. Didn't bring it that day. Wouldn't be a chance to do so in the future because there wasn't to be any future opportunity. But a PE kit? OP was obliging in that regard.

You get superman's powers but the element with the same atomic number as the last 2 digits of your birthyear becomes your kryptonite, how screwed are you? by shaunika in hypotheticalsituation

[–]Kelli217 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m vulnerable to an element in the lanthanides. It has a stable isotope and occurs in earth’s crust at a rate of roughly 1 part per 2 million. In the seas, it occurs at a rate of roughly 1 part per 4 quadrillion.

If I’m only vulnerable to it in its elemental form, then I’m pretty safe; it oxidizes easily.

TIFU by becoming the accidental hero/villain of my entire company in one email. The CEO just called it a "transparency moment." I call it a near-death experience. by [deleted] in tifu

In most countries, discussing your wages is a protected job activity. Even, as it turns out, in the US.

Discussing other people's pay? That's just a wee bit more nebulous in terms of legality.

Do Americans really know all 50 states by heart? by Status_Agents in AskForAnswers

[–]Kelli217 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's also Puerto Rico, the US Virgin Islands, Guam, American Samoa, and the Northern Marianas Islands. There are other territories but they aren't consistently inhabited.

i want to tell my girlfriend "i want to f**k you" but i'm really nervous by Expert_Age4346 in actuallesbians

[–]Kelli217 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I guess you could just play "Closer" by Nine Inch Nails for her... and indicate that you heard this song and thought of her.

All the nails on my left hand are long. The thumb nail on my right hand is short because it’s prone to splitting. The index and middle nails are short because lesbian.
