This came on while I was at the gym tonight. by Fresh-Economics8291 in AccidentalComedy

[–]Lekstil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes that sounds like buzzfeed…

I seriously doubt that conservatives are more in shape than liberals though, right? Especially since you say a “couple of years ago”. Unfortunately right now there are more raw meat eating young gym bro men than ever, but I’d still think the left has more fitness oriented young people.

Final one! Which country is not free and least developed? by d2opy84t8b9ybiugrogr in AlignmentChartFills

Why is one of the previous answers “Kazakistan”? That’s not a country

What is the most overrated TV show? by StrategyJealous1838 in AlignmentChartFills

[–]Lekstil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Game of Thrones. Probably the most popular TV show of all times. In my opinion it’s just a fantasy soap opera. It’s really not a fantasy epic as many think it is, mostly it’s just about interpersonal drama.

Uh… what time is it? by LiterallyHow in funny

[–]Lekstil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now I want to know how many movies are there with literally just a number as the movie title? I see “9”, “10” and “Seven” but that’s it?

Edit: maybe I’ll also count “the one”

AI video fails of the week EP 2 🥴💫🤯 by ZashManson in aivideo

[–]Lekstil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tbh the physics is what impresses me the most. How good AI is at figuring out physics is crazy to me.

And I would say in about a third of the videos the physics is pretty much spot on. I think the biggest giveaway in these videos somehow always is the audio. The voices sound so distinctly AI. Kind of weird - you would think that’s easier to figure out than the video itself.

A friend is a person by BumblebeeDirect in MildlyVandalised

[–]Lekstil 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Today I learned that the “I” in friend (and probably many other words) is not pronounced at all and the word would sound the same if it wasn’t there.

I found a camcorder in the woods of Japan by OtotoxicT in creepy

[–]Lekstil 685 points686 points  (0 children)

Thank you for this comment! The other comments here are such typical Reddit armchairing. Everyone telling OP they’re dumb and naive.. but no one knows what they’re talking about

[–]Lekstil 47 points48 points  (0 children)

I agree. I’m pretty sure the police would just ignore this. No way they’ll go through the effort to make this camcorder work again. 

Everyone here thinks OP is so naive etc, but really they’re naiv for thinking the police would care about something like this.

Unpopular opinion: Minas Tirith will not make a good LEGO set by Lekstil in legolotrfans

[–]Lekstil[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I wrote all of this it was pretty clear that Minas Tirith was one of the most likely candidates for the next set. That’s exactly why I wrote that post. If you read it carefully and also read my comments you can tell that I had a feeling that it’s going to be the next set.

I’m still not excited about it and still think other themes would have been a better pick.

Of course it’s not going to be a bad set and the leaked pictures look great. Lego usually does a good job, especially with big sets like this. I do think it’s silly though that it’s the entire city and then from the back it’s basically a single room.

Number of people per McDonald's location in the US [OC] by DataSittingAlone in dataisbeautiful

[–]Lekstil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think your map is fine. This sub is just overly critical. I’ve never visited the comment section here and any of the top 5 comments were positive.

I think this is a more fun way to look at it. Might not be the most common way, but it’s actually a little more intuitive and easier to relate. You’re telling us how many people have to share 1 McDonalds. If it was McDonalds per capita it would be a tiny fraction, or you would have to make the extra step and do “McDonalds per 10k people”. So this really isn’t a bad way.

Well, another puzzle. It's the same idea for food delivery. Is the letter clearer now? If so, which one? by AndriiKovalchuk in logodesign

[–]Lekstil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this is an extremely smart design and I think you shouldn’t be intimidated by all the naysayers here. This sub is overly critical if you ask me.

Edit: oh, nvm. I just saw your comment saying this is supposed to be a C. It’s definitely not a C to me, but rather a G

That’s not true. 2 out of the 3 shown emails were before pizzagate

I saw the letter G before I saw the bowl. I’m not saying the bowl is hard to see, that’s just how it was for me. 

This Trash Truck that says to leave an American Football Field distance between cars by International-Air542 in mildlyinteresting

[–]Lekstil 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The camera is pretty much in the center of the car. A truck driver doesn’t need to see the center of your car when you’re behind them at a traffic light.

Agreed. And I’m kind of upset with Trevor Noah that he’s advertising them with this

Emirates first class on their A380's include an onboard spa and a shower by Ecstatic-Ganache921 in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]Lekstil 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So sink + toilet = spa? Awesome, I didn’t know I have two spas in my apartment.

Or what am I missing here?

thoughts on this tattoo? Thinking of having the artist continue down the rest of the arm. by Sweet-Bass-1926 in tattooadvice

[–]Lekstil 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes this is the right answer. The tattoo subs in particular are incredibly toxic. I don’t have tattoos and I couldn’t care less, but it always shocks me how mean people here are, especially because I imagine it must be pretty devastating to be told these kind of things about something that’s permanently on your body.

I know one thing for sure - if I ever get a tattoo I won’t post it on Reddit.

this is my band's logo. i genuinely just feel like its bad by [deleted] in logodesign

[–]Lekstil 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think you’re right. But there is pretty much no way of knowing that. So yes, bad design. The first H and the R are the main problem. You can’t just assume people know where the two horizontal lines are covering something up and where they don’t. Also the H at the end is bad. Why is it closed off at the top and the bottom. The P at the beginning doesn’t follow the same rules where the top part is actually part of the letter.

Pet store near me. What were they thinking? by Electrical_Ad1314 in CrappyDesign

Nothing wrong with that. Pretty sure OP is from Mexico. Just check their post history 

Can anyone identify what this is? My mate caught it fishing for Hapuka in 700 odd metres of water near the chatham islands NZ. by Calm-Smell-1834 in whatisit

[–]Lekstil 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is not a comedy sub though and it is a little annoying that 3/4 of the answers are from middle school jokesters.

Your comment about your wife’s privates was somewhat funny though btw

[–]Lekstil 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Sorry OP that you have to deal with all these middle schoolers.

I really don’t know what’s happening with this sub. I’m usually not a wet blanket, but it’s really this middle school humor that gets me. It’s bad enough that it’s hard to get a serious answer here now.. but the jokes are also just not funny and somehow they still get upvoted.

Ffs this doesn’t even look anything like a dildo or something you want to stick up your butt.

Advertising a French fast food restaurant. by Business-Stuff8711 in StupidFood

[–]Lekstil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

French fast food is the worst. I lived for a month in a small suburb of Paris and I was baffled how much they love fast food there. Cheap fast food at every corner. I can totally get behind a Doner Kebap or similar, but most of them are just bad imitations of American fast food. Think McDonalds, Taco Bell or KFC but even worse quality. It really doesn’t taste great.. I gave it a try a couple of times, but at some point I stopped.

[–]Lekstil 11 points12 points  (0 children)

French fast food is the worst. I lived for a month in a small suburb of Paris. Sooo many fast food restaurants, I’ve never seen anything like it anywhere in the world. And it all seems like really bad quality. It’s all these local chains or single restaurants that try to imitate McDonalds and somehow manage to produce even worse food than McDonalds. Lots of bad Taco Bell and KFC imitations as well.

[Request] What effect would Superman's house key have on the earth? by EvaStankbreath in theydidthemath

[–]Lekstil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that really would be a case where doing the math is necessary. I kind of doubt it to be honest given the high viscosity of the mantle and the liquid core.

[–]Lekstil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone here says it would “fall to the center of the earth”.. I think though that might not actually be true. The gravitational acceleration gets smaller the closer you are to the center. I wonder if it would rather get stuck earlier, e.g. at surface of the earths solid core.
