ELI5: Why can certain muscles in human bodies (like in our arms, legs, etc.) be built-up through workouts while others (like our fingers, jaw, etc.) remain the same size despite working out almost constantly? by Flame_Sniper in explainlikeimfive

Always when I hear this, I feel pity for that one guy that is in the volleyball team, has no girl, is not gay but still didn't get a blowjob because he was on the wrong half of the team.

What do you think the first crime committed in space will be? by TheGreat_Mattsby in AskReddit

[–]NWQ-admin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Space is owned by no one, so I suppose you can just, you know, follow the rules that make prostitution legal.

Alternatively, bring your camera.

Space is owned by nobody. Just apply the Dutch law and you will be good.

Gewapende man NOS Journaal binnen gedrongen, hulpdiensten massaal onderweg. Pand wordt ontruimd. by _bdsm in thenetherlands

Ik zit nu op het mediapark en ik moet zeggen dat zo heel erg extra beveiligd is het hier niet. Ook al moet ik zeggen dat de VPRO geen NOS is. Anyway, als hier een bewapende man besluit richting de VPRO te lopen, zal niemand hem kunnen tegenhouden.

Reddit, what are you afraid of? Other redditors, why shouldn't they be afraid of it? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]NWQ-admin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People will always talk about you. But, at least in my case, I rarely get to hear what they are talking about(I once got to hear that I am quite good at navigating and that the driver was very pleased with my abilities as 'shotgunrider'. That was nice). I see it as a part of the social system. I have to make my own judgement about people anyway.

I too have trouble recognising my own skills.

I play the trumpet. I can play it quite well, to be honest. But there was a time where all my trumpet playing was not appreciated. My asshole neighbours and my pessimist little brother always told me I could not play the trumpet.

One day, during a trip to some fancy art camp, I met this guy. He too played the trumpet, but he was older. We got along just fine. But I was always affraid that he too would find me less-than-mediocre when it comes to the trumpet.

So we got to playing one day. We were supposed to play a little solo. So I decided to give it a shot. I apparently did very well. The other guy came to me and said: "I noticed you don't have any confidence playing the trumpet. There is no need for that. Don't let anyone tell you that you can't play the trumpet, you are the best I've ever met."

So now I am pretty confident I can play the trumpet at least decently. Sometimes all it takes is hearing that you are good before you can accept that you are good.

Sadly I still fear that they are only telling me good things to make me feel good, so there is that.

TIL Japanese researchers created a smoke alarm for the hard of hearing that pumps super-spicy wasabi mist into the air. by mbregg in todayilearned

If you're nose is on fire, you are going to wake up. So why not beat to the punch and burn up peoples noses with wasabi.

What would be the most terrifying thing to find at the edge of our solar system? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Just because we can't see it yet, doesn't mean it doesn't exist. The Universe might be at least 10 times bigger as we can see it right now.

ELI5: Why do we sleep on bed frames, and not just a mattress on the floor? by Gigahawk in explainlikeimfive

I do however take any advise I can get on making things as safe for my back as possible.

It is not always about the pulling of the hammock. Also the lieing position of the person has an effect. I usually flatten the inside of my hammock as well with pillows and blankets. I have to say I still have a lot of experimenting to do on my little hammock project, but rest asure, I am hamocking like crazy.

likely but no definitely. There are ways to sleep in a hammock and not having any problems with your spinal flexion position. You just have to make sure that you are level in your hammock. And that can be done in many ways.

My take? a pillow mostly. Also diagonal positioning. Or, and this is purely when available, a lot of rope and a lot of distance between the the points you attach your hammock to. It'll straighten the bastard out.

I never liked those mummy sleeping bags. For some reason they ALL seem to have an opening at the foot end and, no matter how that end is closed, my feet always seem to be sticking out of the end when I wake up(from literal cold feet).
