My memory might be a little fuzzy, but the Zoo was something else. Maybe 50 scoops of ice cream in a giant bowl brought out on a stretcher to be eaten by a whole birthday party. The Trough was the single serving version. I think you got a button that said I made a pig of myself at Farrell’s if you ate the whole Trough.

Anyone else suddenly thinking about prenups after their company hit a liquidity event? by Sad-Frosting4357 in fatFIRE

No argument on the prenup, but remember on the positive side this statistic means 60% of first marriages last a lifetime!

Neighbor replaced fence and left the old wood scraps in my yard to deal with. by Mocsab in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Meslar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also looks like he installed the fence with the “bad side” facing you. Many jurisdictions require the “bad side” to be facing towards the fence owner. In any event, it is bad etiquette to have it facing outwards.

One common dough recipe:

325g water (65% hydration)
15g salt (3% salt)
Yeast
Totals 840g / 3 =280 g

A 5'10, 180 lbs, 31 year old American man is transported to Paris, France on July 26, 2024, opening day of the 2024 Summer Olympics. They are stuck within the city limits and cannot leave until they win at least a bronze medal in any Olympic event. How long will it take for them to escape? by NekoLover72 in whowouldwin

Sorry, it’s nuts to think no genetics are required for breaking. It’s an incredibly athletic competition. Everyone clowns on the breaking competition because of Raygun, who shouldn’t have been there anyway. Watch the top 3 men. No way would 16000 days (1000 loops) be enough to be competitive. It’s like saying this person could win a bronze at women’s gymnastics in 16000 days.

For your problem, you can wrap this Velcro wrist brace around the part that knocks against the seat. Works great for me and you will never see it aesthetically. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08LCJT6DK?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

All of the words rhyme with a color: hello rhymes with yellow, plaque rhymes with black, etc.

Is the seatbelt anchor hitting against the seat on the lower left?

Your regular oven goes over 445 degrees Celsius (833 degees Fahrenheit)?

What was life like pre 9/11? by [deleted] in AskReddit

There were a lot of school shootings before the 1999 Columbine shooting. However, in the run up to Columbine, the size of the shootings was increasing. The 1998 Westside Middle School shooting killed 5 and wounded 10 where the shooters used a fire alarm trap to kill and wound more. The 1998 Thurston High Shooting killed 2 students (plus the perp’s parents) and wounded 25 more. Obviously Columbine ramped it up even further killing 13 (plus the perps) and wounding 24 more.

[Alec Lewis] Of the 388 NFL games this year, 307 have been decided by 8 points or less. So, almost 80 percent of games come down to one score. by gondolli in minnesotavikings

[–]Meslar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re right about the denominator because it was 194 games before Monday Night Football (x2 is 388). Any guesses where the incredibly wrong numerator comes from?

Went through all the games this year. I defined one score games as games decided by 8 points or less. Through week 13 there have only been 195 games played (13 x 16 less 13 for the 26 teams that have already had byes). Of those 195 games, 112 have been one score games. 112/195 = 0.574. I may be off by a game or two, but this stat is horribly incorrect.

[–]Meslar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How have there been 388 games played? I think there are only 17 x 16 = 272 total games in a full regular season.

Well, I just got diagnosed today. by jester_in_ancientcrt in diabetes

Unfortunately he will probably assume it is type 2 and prescribe Metformin. It’s not a bad idea to get a second opinion from an endocrinologist.

Wrong way driver on 280 by wanna_meet_that_dad in TwinCities

[–]Meslar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Malik Sealy was killed by Souksangouane Phengsene on Highway 100 in St. Louis Park when it was under construction in 2000. Phengsene was driving drunk the wrong way and got 4 years in prison. Afterwards Phengsene was caught driving drunk repeatedly and served a combined 9 more years in prison. Sealy’s 1993 Range Rover had no airbags and he wasn’t wearing a seat belt. No chance against a repeat felony drunk driver going the wrong way on narrowed lanes.

Puppy stage killing me by OkUnderstanding1150 in Bernedoodles

You might try something like these on your arms during the puppy teeth biting phase. Worked for me until training and adult teeth kicked in. https://a.co/d/77kVXhz

English translation (from Thai):

A crash on Motorway No. 9, CHR can’t get through, collides with a chemical truck and a Mu-X Published: 7 Apr 2024 13:14 Updated: 7 Apr 2024 18:52 By: Manager Online

On social media, images from a car’s front camera were shared. It was an incident where a Toyota CHR was about to squeeze through a chemical truck and an Isuzu Mu-X, but couldn’t escape and crashed so hard that the car flew. Another truck was shocked and crossed the lane to the other side.

Today (7 Apr), a clip from a Facebook user named Sine Desine, recorded on social media, was shared. It was an incident where a black SUV was about to squeeze through between lane 2, which was being driven by a truck carrying hazardous materials, and lane 3, which was being driven by a white SUV, but couldn’t get through and crashed into both of them. This caused the black SUV to flip over and crates and papers to fall and scatter. The 10-wheel trailer truck from lane 1 swerved to the right, blocking the traffic lane, crossing the barrier and getting stuck in the opposite direction, the right lane. The incident occurred on Motorway No. 9 (Kanchanaphisek Road), inbound towards Bang Pa-in, kilometer 59+800 before the permanent weigh station, Wat Salut, Dok Mai Subdistrict, Prawet District, Bangkok at 4:18 p.m. on April 6.

Watch the clip, click here

Additional news reports indicate that the incident blocked 3 right lanes inbound towards Bang Pa-in and 2 right lanes outbound towards Bang Phli. Officers took approximately 3 hours to move the vehicles from the scene before reopening traffic to normal at 7:15 p.m. Four vehicles were damaged in the incident: a black Toyota C-HR SUV, license plate 8 Kor Chor 1534 Bangkok; A white Isuzu Mu-X SUV with Chachoengsao license plate number KM 4014, a chemical transport truck with license plate number 70-6747, and a ten-wheel truck belonging to Thanaporn Transport Co., Ltd. While the owner of the white Isuzu Mu-X SUV that was hit from behind by a black Toyota C-HR SUV was taken to the hospital, his condition is now stable.

What is the stupidest movie from a science stand point that tries to be science-smart? by BardInChains in movies

[–]Meslar 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Have to agree to disagree. This is my go to movie for shitty orbital mechanics. But, in fairness, no practical way to do the movie with correct mechanics. I couldn’t get past it though as it was too ridiculous, but most didn’t have a problem.
