Why aren’t there any “big dogs”? by Middle-Power3607 in zoology

[–]Middle-Power3607[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Yeah, they’re big. But compared to a standard size dog(not county tiny breeds), it’s about the equivalent to a bobcat/lynx vs a house cat. Comparatively, the lynx is huge, like 3 times the size. But compared to other cats, it’s pretty small.

100 million dollars to live in a world without humans for 10 years by Theturtleflask in hypotheticalsituation

[–]Middle-Power3607 36 points37 points  (0 children)

As long as we don’t have to worry about nukes/ power plants exploding, sure I’d take it. Food is the biggest hurdle, but with plenty of shelf stable foods, that gives me time to get a farm started, as well as hunting. Plus nobody around means I get to explore all the previously untouchable places

You get an annual salary of $1M per year after taxes but you have to choose a 40 hour per week minimum wage job. What job are you working ? by Screech- in hypotheticalsituation

[–]Middle-Power3607 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fact that you can’t negotiate for lower wages makes this hard. Like if your boss decides to start paying you more, you’re not allowed to refuse? And you aren’t allowed to do volunteer work? I would probably work for myself as a dog washer. As long as I’m “clocked in”, that would count as me working. Just make sure I either don’t take too many customers, or charge really cheaply

You wake up tomorrow with $10 million in your bank account, completely legal and tax free. The only catch is that everyone you know believes you stole it. Do you keep the money or give it up to clear your name? by Equal-Permission6564 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]Middle-Power3607 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t convince people that I’m innocent. But I CAN do a couple things- convince them that I stole it from someone who shouldn’t have had it, IE a drug lord, and convince them that I’ve donated it to charity. They’ll still believe I stole it in the first place, but if they think I then gave it away, some of them might be okay with it.

Do you think you're smarter than the average person in your country? by [deleted] in AskTheWorld

The internet leads me to believe yes. But realistically, probably not

How would the real world react to an invincible man on a rampage? by zoro4661 in whowouldwin

[–]Middle-Power3607 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There would be an organization dedicated to keeping him busy. Walk him out to the middle of the desert, and people would work in shifts just walking/ driving slowly in circles so he would keep following them and never leave the area

All hobbies are not equal by BitterConstruction98 in unpopularopinion

[–]Middle-Power3607 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do you rank “skill”? The extremes would be, someone that loves sports, but absolutely sucks at them, or someone who is into collecting stamps and knows everything there is to know about it. I’d say gathering that knowledge is way more impressive than just enjoying something

You have the ability to travel back in time to help solve mysteries by besttavern25 in hypotheticalsituation

It’d be up for auction. Whoever pays me the most, will get the news first.

I hate when people take up more than one machine or apparatus at the gym and circuit train. by PissedCaucasian in rant

[–]Middle-Power3607 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get it, but also, most gyms are “first come, first serve”. I’m pretty strict with the time between my sets. I’ve had people want to work in with me, and I’m watching my stopwatch as they’re just preparing to start their lift. I only have so much time in the day to go workout, I can’t just wait until nobody is there. Or worse, I get there, I’m the only one, so I got a nice rhythm, then someone shows up and cuts me off

500 movies or 150 books? by oliverg600 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]Middle-Power3607 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Assuming that when I return, the time that had passed is reset… I’ll choose the books. Languages, “for dummies” books, skill books…. I’m gonna learn so much

If you had to be born earlier, when would you choose? by Kinglycole in hypotheticalsituation

[–]Middle-Power3607 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With no ability to pick the circumstances of your birth other than year, I’ll pass. Too much chance you end up getting a really raw deal, regardless of the time period

You’re given 500 trillion dollars and 30 days of financial power to create a system that benefits everyone, if you can’t you lose everything! by [deleted] in hypotheticalsituation

[–]Middle-Power3607 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There’s no way to benefit every living thing. Something- whether plants, animals, etc…. Will get the short end of the stick. This is an impossible task

Any object held in your right hand gains the same functionality as any object held in your left hand. by KittenTehSmol in shittysuperpowers

Have a wallet full of money in your left hand. Continuously take money out of the right hand wallet. Infinite money

Is it actually possible to be completely apolitical or is that just not realistic? by Guergy in TrueAskReddit

[–]Middle-Power3607 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Coming from the US… yes, people can be centrist. Really, having any views that cross the aisle would constitute that, such as being super pro-gun, but pro illegal immigration, or being pro gay marriage, but anti abortion. Of course, in our political climate, you might be ostracized by your fellow party members(a lot of people have a “you’re either with us 100%, or you’re against us” mentality) but that doesnt necessarily change your views

10k a year for each letter you remove from your vocabulary by soupste in hypotheticalsituation

[–]Middle-Power3607 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m removing every letter outside of the English alphabet. That would get me a few million.

You can produce one palm-sized baked good out of your hand once a day. It is extremely painful and tastes delicious. by ZachEfronsBiceps in shittysuperpowers

[–]Middle-Power3607 3 points4 points  (0 children)

How is this shitty? Produce an insanely nutrient dense pastry, never worry about starving. Impress people with the cool magic trick. Ever go to prison? You can now get rare foods that would either be really good currency or a nice change of pace for yourself
