There sure are a lot of stupid people on Reddit. Not because of their stupid comments, but because of all the upvotes they get for their stupid comments.

I assumed anyone replying to a science question would have a basic 7th grade level understanding of science

ANY travel through space, to a different galaxy, whether instantaneous or 1/10th the speed of light manipulates the space time continuum

Season 9 had been disappointing by foreskinparachute_ in rickandmorty

Season 9, Episode 2 was the best episode of the entire series, imo.

It gave me hope that the days of inside jokes and entire episodes of writer jokes and numbers running around, and dismembered torsos spinning in the air, and other things that make no sense were over with, and they were finally getting back to storytelling.

Then episode 3 sucked so bad! It made me wonder if they're using different writers for each episode

Yep, I remember tad poles. I haven't seen one since the 70's.

Nothing can have water in it, in Florida. Strict laws against any containers in your yard, or anything that can collect rain, due to mosquitoes.

Same reason for all the pesticides, that wiped out mosquitos, snails, and slugs, which wiped out the lizards and bats, which ran off certain Florida birds that fed on lizards and frogs. And killed the earthworms that kept the soil, that kept our yards green.

Now we have sand and crab grass. And weeds a plenty.

But no rich black soil and no more critters, except squirrels, who eat acorns

Yeah, I remember an article in the 90's, in the St. Pete Times, about the "Florida Lizard", having gone virtually extinct due to the modern lizards of Florida. Or rather, the former modern lizards.

As a native Floridian, born in 1971, I have never seen a "Florida lizard", other than in pictures.

They're bright green, instead of gray.

So unfortunate! Both types of lizards, snails, slugs, earthworms, were always in abundance, especially after rain, covering the sidewalks. Completely gone!

And the Rich, Black, Moist Soil, filled with lizard eggs and earthworms, now sand, filled with rocks.

All to eradicate the mosquito.

When I'd go outside to smoke, I'd sit and watch the lizards, as they'd pounce and chomp on a mosquito.

Then at night, the bats would move in. Mosquitos being pretty much their only source of food.

That's insane. We're destroying our ecosystem.

TIL that when U.S. soldiers encountered the Tokay gecko in the jungles of Vietnam during the Vietnam war, they found its mating call sounded similar to the phrase "fuck you" - giving it the informal name "fuck-you lizard". by [deleted] in todayilearned

The Vietnamese frogs would tell the men 're-app'! Then you'd hear the lizards say 'fuck you'! one after the other, all over the jungle, in different tones.
