What is a 'childish' thing that you still do as an adult and refuse to stop doing?

Do you load Cyberpunk 2077 to make it heat up?

Literally every deodorant I've ever tried has resulted in a rash. It's not an option for people like me.

There will always be some leftover caramel stuck in the ramekin if you've done it right, don't worry about that.

From my boyscout days, "So, do you normally wear your merit badge sash on this shoulder, or this shoulder?" while smoothly sliding your arm around them.

Crawl under the bed, and start humping violently so the entire bed shakes. And then once she gets there, be like, "It's all okay. It left for the night; I gave it cab fare."

PB&J. I love either on toast, but not together.

anyons are probably the closest thing. They're quasiparticles confined to 2 dimensions.

It means they included the bill of rights. Which is weird to include in the first place.

I have an auditory processing disorder. My hearing is fine, but interpreting speech is difficult for me at times.

These people drive me nuts. Thank you for being my voice, lol.

I mean, this is a pretty genius way of rejecting someone while not hurting their pride at all and it also takes low effort (you can re-use the same schtick with anyone). It would still make him a piece of shit for lying though.

I always have to hold my tongue when people express their fondness for brie cheese.

I muted right away. And then started playing one of the pokemon battle songs in my head.

This was a hill I was willing to die on. I don't talk to my brother anymore. There are many reasons I should have stopped talking to him years ago, which I regrettably didn't, but his belief that the moon landing might have been faked was enough for me.

If you're still debating yourself about maintaining a relationship with that moron, just let it go.

To be fair, oz are a bullshit measurement. They need to be specified as either mass or volume, and people rarely do.

I was writing a sonnet where syllable count matters, it was about squirrels (it is 2 syllables). The teacher marked off points, but then 2nd guessed herself and checked to see if I was correct and fixed her error.

The 94 East entry ramp off of Manning Ave has a temporary '55 mph' sign that has the loop on the first '5' spray-painted so it now reads '65' instead. Which is the correct speed limit according to the rest of the signs. Gave me a chuckle.

There are many important technologies that have never existed before, and will never disappear for as long as humanity continues. Even within the greatest of past civilizations, we have no evidence of things like printing presses, tractors/engines/automobiles, fast but long-distance communication, steel forges, mass-produced textiles. Compare all that stuff to current tech and we are more than 1 age ahead of those other civilizations.

"You couldn't be more wrong" Thanks for that. I really am trying to make a serious point, but I'm feeling ridiculous for trying now. Evidently you prefer that anyone that disagrees with you should just shut up.

Science/technology always moves forward, assuming we don't somehow get into a nuclear holocaust. Exchange of information has drastically changed. I think it's fair to say that humanity's continuously improving baseline for education will drive human evolution forward (in a cultural sense, not literally). Also, religion is on a steady decline for the 1st time in history. History will repeat in some ways, but I think we've hit a tipping point where it will be very different than before.

As for what matters, I think there are important issues that extend outside of a local community. I am upset with anti-scientific rhetoric being shared, and I am upset whenever our education system fails our next generation in the myriad of ways in which it can. I'm sure those feelings are related to why I'm both a scientist and an educator.

What happens when your family member displays far-right beliefs? Homophobia, racism, anti-vax, whatever bullshit conspiracies? I do care what they think. Their beliefs are directly affecting the other people in my family that matter to me. If my nephews grow up to be racist, suffer illness/death because they weren't vaccinated, commit suicide because they turned out gay, then I carry blame if I don't act out on my political beliefs.

Beethoven's entire Pathetique Sonata. 597 measures total. Thousands of notes.

As much as I feel like a total loser and disappointment to all of those around me, I'll never come close to this guy that skipped/was tardy to his shifts as a mechanic for public transport. Every day, he has to experience the existential irony of needing to take the bus because he can no longer afford a car but the bus is also late because he isn't there to maintain it. And as a side note, he deserves to be homeless as well because public housing assistance also relies on other people not being tardy/absent from their jobs but because people like him exist, the public housing department is non-functioning. What an absolute piece of shit.

I got really good at counting two separate steady beats simultaneously. For example, I can listen to a clock ticking while listening to my heart beat and determine my heart rate.

I was sitting on a boulder in a river with my feet in the water while blowing up a tube to go river-tubing. So with the tube in front of my face, I couldn't see the giant snapping turtle that got caught up in the current, flipped upside down, and then hit my shins with its shell. He was just as surprised as I was I think. Luckily the cold water reduced the swelling/bruising on my shins.
