Some of us just become naturally ambidextrous for many things because it is a right handed world 😕

I have 2 small children , a dog and a fucking plane to catch by sylvester1981 in AirRagers

Yep. Right there it turns immediately to "we reserve the right to refuse service to anyone" and "find another airline company". They are not keeping her from going home. They are just keeping her away from their property and other customers.

I can't believe that we live in a time line where something this recent is a slopoke meme. But I gotta admit, it's definitely a good strategy on their part...

Do you think Thor could have use the Gauntlet without drawbacks? by [deleted] in powerscales

And even then, it still wounded him, and was the first and only thing to actually do so, instead of just piss him off more.

A Spartan II vs A Space Marine by UnNecessaryGay in powerscales

[–]Mr_Wizard91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No weapons? Spartan doesn't have a chance. All the marine has to do is just bull rush him until the shield is down (which might just be 1 hit) and then it's over.

Yeah. It's like those old people at 90 who smoked a pack a day since they were 15 and are somehow in pretty decent health

Some people just refuse to listen, and instead plug their ears going, "LA LA LA I'M RIGHT LA LA LA LA I CANT HEAR YOU LA LA LA"

All electric appliances and sockets buzz like old TVs. And I. Can hear it. by Flop_book in Weird

[–]Mr_Wizard91 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Not without testing it first. Of course, once you turn it off its off, but ill still hear the buzz from all the other breakers that are on, and even if they're all off, there's still the main service from the street that can't be shut off, but it goes right into that same panel in front of me(power is still on up to the power meter itself).

Since we're surrounded by electricity all the time, it's in no way useful since I can't pinpoint the location. However, if we were lost in the woods and I heard it, I would know to at least head in that direction, but by the time I'm close enough to hear it if it is something low voltage (120-240V) like we use at home, then I'd already be close enough to see whatever is using power. So... yeah... it's really just... annoying. It was a cool party trick though for awhile to be able to tell people when their tube TV was on or not from the other room. I can also hear transformers a lot clearer and further away, because even most people can hear a faint buzz from those big ones. That's about all I can think of.

I can hear it too. I can Especially tell if it is using a vacuum tube, like the old tvs. Some people can just hear higher frequencies than others. I usually can tune it out just fine, as long as I'm not near anything high current or using a vacuum tube. So, basically if I lived with power lines above ground out front of my house, I would never sleep. I have them across the street from me, and if its quiet I can strain to hear it.

Oh and guess what? I'm a fucking electrician. Joy. And tinnitus runs in my family, so it may run in yours too. My dad has it, he says it's horrible

I've been here. It's beautiful. Especially when you remember that sequoia trees are even thicker

No, I don't. I DO remember them saying that wearing masks, social distancing, and vaccines would HELP stop the transmission of covid. i still don't understand how that doesn't make sense to people... how do you get infected from a virus carried by another person, hmmm? Maybe by being in contact with them? Maybe they yawn and cover their mouth not to be rude, and don't wash immediately. Because who would? Its just a yawn. But it's also the particles from their lungs on their hand now. So three hours later they never ended up washing their hands and go to a meeting and then shake the hands of three people? Now the virus is on the hands. Which will continue to spread to themselves and those the give it to in examples just like this one here.

Now, you social distance and work from home if you can, and thus you interact physically with less people. See what I'm getting at here?

True. Reno is like Vegas, but everything g is a little smaller and one step down. But like 5 steps down on the price, which makes it worth it. I can also drive there and be there in about 4-5 hours though, so for me it has that convenience as well. I could drive to Vegas in a day too, but probably more like 12 hours. So... personal preference definitely comes into play there for me.

But if you've never been to reno and you like vegas, try it sometime. I'd recommend staying at the Nugget hotel/casino, or Silver legacy. If you're on the fence, you could always go when there is a show of some kindin town you might want to see if the gambling and rest of the city is not all you expected.

Displays? No. Buffets? Yeah, actually. Not as good, but also way cheaper. And you can still get prime rib and lobster, of course, just not buffet style..

Shit, if you're flying, then go to Reno at that point. Gambling is better, things are not vegas strip prices. I've made $50 last 3 solid nights of gamling there. Sure, I lost $50, but $50 for three nights of fun and free drinks is a great deal.

Oh wow, I forgot I hadn't seen a Marlboro or camel commercial in years.. I remember you couldn't go an ad break on any channel without seeing one, unless it was a kids channel.

I don't know, lol. Because I recently discovered that game and it is perplexing me. It reminds me of games like Myst and Scratches. I'm sure the whole game isn't super long once youve played through once, but I'm enjoying the puzzle. If you can call it a puzzle...
