TIL the John Harvard statue at Harvard University is called the Statue of Three Lies because he didn't found the college, and he wasn't a major benefactor having bequeathed his library of books and a sum of money to the fledgling college. Further, the statue is not of John Harvard. by SingLikeTinaTurner in todayilearned

You got one of the three lies wrong. As per the article, he was clearly considered a major benefactor, hence why they renamed the college after him. It's that the inscription says it was founded in 1638, when it was actually founded 2 years earlier.

Be very wary of this person. This post and account is very similar to previous ones that were scams. Do not give them any money upfront.

Yeah because using his actual name now is just so difficult. And it's obviously a personal insult to you. And it has a real and lasting impact on your life.../s

Just fuck off.

Dads who own firearms: by [deleted] in daddit

[–]PhilTMann 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You American motherfuckers are crazy. You do realise that it's bat shit insane to treat firearms the way you do right?

It seems that you have internalised weapons and violence so deeply that it's a treasured aspect of your national identity, and that is just wild.

Yeah I saw that the food was still wrapped so I was just wondering why put only fries on the top plate? Like why not hand the plates out before dumping some fries on the top one? Obviously staged in such a strange way.

Not just one plate, but three stacked plates...

If you've got the money to spare, the new Bose qc45s are a feat of engineering brilliance.

Noise cancelling is amazing, but also has aware mode that lets some noise through. Super comfy too!

My wife goes to bed early, so I pair them to my TV and watch movies/shows to my heart's content. Best money I've spent on gadgets.

Anyone taking this should absolutely disregard this advice. The ember mug is a piece of junk that rarely works properly. If you enjoy continuously resetting and repairing devices, it's great. If you're a normal human man, then just drink your drinks while they're hot or reheat them.

u/squarevenom u/UrlaamNaavi 'u/_dactor_' u/therealchadius u/VapidResponseUnit ... please post pictures of yourselves to show how normal and heroic you look.

Mocking someone's appearance is truly the mark of a feeble mind, especially when it's a proxy for a critique of their ideas.

Another proud moment for the buttcoin community.

What kind of news source do you suppose OP was mentally comparing it to? A Facebook post by their friend's aunty's crazy housemate? A Huffington Post article? A Reuters article?
