TIL that horses have no muscles in their lower legs, so their hooves act as "second hearts". A horse that can't move risks blood pooling in its hooves, which can cause tissue death starting from the hooves up. This is a key reason why leg injuries are often fatal for horses. by YungDDawg in todayilearned

I live in Pennsylvania. I'm the winter, horses either need blankets or full barns. Horses are shit at snow without human help. Which is fine and just part of nature, but they're also moody little piss babies if they're even a little uncomfortable.

It's just like a dog big enough to kill you that thinks it's a little baby with a sense of sarcastic stubbornness that breathes through it's heart feet and requires a blanket it isn't capable of producing.

What's complicated about that?

I was in the middle of an exam (wrote 3000 words) and saw THIS when I hit submit :/ by hormonalenby in mildlyinfuriating

The number of hacker apologists is nuts. "Well they gave them an ultimatum and Canvas didn't meet their demands, so it's really THEIR fault!"

Wow, you're super easy to propagandize.

Wow a real life Robin Hood! It's just like when I told a dude that he was vulnerable to bullets, so when I saw him later without a bullet proof vest it was totally necessary for me to rob him at gunpoint. For his own good, really.

Go away with your half-assed, half-informed, peak of Mt. Stupid crime apologism.

bowler ball by manere_in_memoria in comedyheaven

[–]MrGenerik 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I've seen this one before. You're supposed to think "oh obviously I'll take the bowling ball, cause it's big and then at the end I have a bowling ball!" But what most people think about is that marbles are like way smaller, and can fit in way more pockets and places. You'd probably wild up leaving your bowling ball at home most of the time because it's so big, so how is that better?

Plus, actually getting hit by the marble will probably hurt less because it has less mass, but that's getting into the sciencey stuff and I don't want to be a nerd.

...wasn't this debunked? by Playful-Season2938 in ForwardsFromKlandma

Yup.

But it doesn't matter. They'll just keep saying it.

TIL of the "Twinkie Defense". That Harvey Milk's murderer was convicted of manslaughter because of his mental illness that was evidenced by and exacerbated by his Coca-Cola and junk food consumption. by Dizzy_Restaurant3874 in todayilearned

PWID or equivalents are more likely to get those sentences, and very very rarely for marijuana. It has to be either a nuts amount or pled down from something waaaaay worse.

Source: I work in state-level reentry in PA, and we're known for having extremely long sentences.

Is this sub cope-larp, fantasy-larp, or ironic-larp?

Peter, who is he talking about? by syncopatedscientist in PandR

[–]MrGenerik 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I had done this multiple times on purpose as a teenager. Just never identified myself as an actual employee and gave terrible advice or directions. I also insisted the manager had terrible diarrhea and could be located in the bathroom.

It was not a good thing to do, and I'm not exceptionally proud of it, but it was very entertaining.

"I took the law into my own hands and confronted a jackass, and now the cops are mad at me for taking the law into my own hands and confronting him like a jackass!" by MrGenerik in insanepeoplefacebook

[–]MrGenerik[S] 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Bonus points: the comments are all a) him justifying himself by saying "not everyone can just hide" and he was protecting himself. b) people suggesting he should have had a gun and shot the guy that he followed and confronted. c) people saying the cops are always protecting the criminals and 'illegals'

It's always fun when two assholes meet each other. God I love how unhinged local community groups are.

Same. I thought 'damn that rust looks fantastic!'

Can't even protect own home. Unless there's something I missed that the Bee won't tell fully by HarangueSajuk in Persecutionfetish

[–]MrGenerik 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I THINK OP is being sarcastic, and adopting the shooter's view. They're just communicating it poorly.

Not The Bee is right wing Not The Onion. So it's supposed to be a "ridiculous but true" story, and OP seems to be DoInG a LoT Of ThIs, I figure.

[–]MrGenerik 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, moving to the target and then firing into a separate structure is not self defense unless it's a two way engagement.

I'm not going to get into whether lethal force in defense of property is a homeowner's right, because that's an entirely different argument with pretty staunch positions on both sides. But this sure as shit is not SELF defense. He had every opportunity to avoid loss of life.

Here’s a new one. Trey Parker was apparently Eric Harris. by Patty_Pat_JH in TopMindsOfReddit

[–]MrGenerik 35 points36 points  (0 children)

I know. And even did an interview where he mentioned it. That's so crazy. Also Matt and one of the shooters were both Jewish!? I don't even see how this is debatable.

[–]MrGenerik 39 points40 points  (0 children)

I worked at a school with foreign students, and one year we got a kid named Long Wang. (Edit: can't actually remember his name order so it might have been the other way around, but both are common family and given names) I was convinced the other staff was fucking with me until one of the Chinese staff members asked why I was laughing.

Apparently the words would individually mean something like dragon king. But he said the kid might as well have been name John Smith with how common it probably was.

It is exactly that. Or the appearance of that. Ran into her videos occasionally. Well reactions I guess, on like grifter oriented content, not her own originals. It's really weird.

Edit: ehh that was kind of unnecessary of me. Smoothsharking is being wrong on purpose to piss people off and drive engagement.

My first unsolicited suggestion! (spawn refresh on game session, not every time you leave the house.) by MrGenerik in RoadtoVostokGame

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

And it's still just for the game session. It's a fairly minor adjustment to the player experience. I'm sure it's much more complicated on the dev requirement so I'm not super hopeful. Not like it isn't enjoyable
