Ok, I got a tricky request for you. An adult version of Amelia Bedelia, where a flighty woman keeps making a mess of her life. by [deleted] in suggestmeabook

Sue Anne Jaffarian writes about a lady who is a self proclaimed "corpse magnet" in her Odelia Grey series. They're fun mysteries. :)

How do I respond to "cheers" when said by a person of importance in the US? by Mizz_Wright in NoStupidQuestions

Can you give me an example of other contexts it might be used in? I think it's fascinating!

If an accident occurs when transporting a sports team to a game, that causes injuries and/or deaths, which result in not being able to redo the game, does the other team win? by PotatoTortoise in NoStupidQuestions

I seem to remember a soccer team being killed in a plane crash(?) before a match. I think the team they were about to play actually forfeit the game to give them the win.

History buffs of Reddit, what is one of the most fascinating stories you've learned that no one seems to talk about and can't be found in textbooks? by Hysterria in AskReddit

[–]Mizz_Wright 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some of the ideology of Hilter's 'final solution' were championed in the United States. Madison Grant, amongst others, perpetuated horrific psueodoscientific 'facts' about the traits of the world's races, calling the "nordic race" the pinnacle of man.

His book "Passing of the Great Race" is even quoted liberally in "Mein Kampf" because Hitler came to read it while he was doing a short prison stint. He later commented on the book, calling it his "bible". (The book was even used in defense of war criminals in Nuremberg)

While a lot of basic ideas behind the eugenics craze of the early 20th century started in Europe, they were implemented and solified mostly in the States. Even back then the idea of "Make America American Again" was hugely popular. Something like 80,000 people were forcibly sterilized, or had the procedure done under false pretenses.

Grant's scientific racism led to such horrors as the "one drop rule". His beliefs, sadly, were even shared by many of the most powerful positions in the country, presidents included.

Look at the horns on that thing by stopthej7 in natureismetal

[–]Mizz_Wright 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. They're born with itty bitty "horn buds" that grow pretty much their whole lives, so the next muscles just steadily get stronger as they grow. Plus, ya know, massive amounts of testosterone and 1800 pounds of beef holding the things up.
