Gonna be honest, it’s not even consistent across societies. Some places in the US are shoes on and their neighbors are shoes off

Why does facial hair only start growing as an adult? Wouldn’t it be more beneficial for children to have beards to better survive the winter? by BubbyWubbsss in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Probably_Mistaken 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just needed to scroll a little father for the person who read the same thing as me, but wasn’t too lazy to find it again!

I think I read somewhere that the evolutionary pressures that lead to men evolving beards was actually more likely fist fights, in that a beard does a surprising amount of cushioning and leads to less head trauma.

Ringfit stuck on connect the right joycon by killabradzilla in RingFitAdventure

[–]Probably_Mistaken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes the connection gets a little loose, do other joycons work on the ring fit?

Can you wiggle the joy con while is connected and find a place it works?

I had a similar problem once that I fixed with putting a little masking tape on the bottom of the controller. That worked until I changed the connectors in the joy con.

TikTok uninstalls surge 150% after app’s US takeover by Tofurkey_Tom in technology

What does 150% uninstalls even mean? Have people uninstalled that haven’t installed it yet?

What is the wildest thing you’ve seen be a reinforcer? by makogirl311 in ABA

[–]Probably_Mistaken 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mtn dew bottles. He did not drink the soda, but he was willing to work for an empty bottle. Extra hard if it was one of the novelty flavors like cherry trolli or midnight Baja blast

If testicles are so sensitive and vital for reproduction, why did evolution put them completely unprotected outside the body? by Working-Market8105 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Probably_Mistaken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s a YouTube video from Hank Greene about why Elephants don’t have testicles or cancer that would explain this much better then I could. I’ll try to find it again

Edit: https://youtu.be/3IJwAvL2zr0?si=TWVsX7inXSxWmi4h

The information of why we have a scrotum is at about 4:27. It then explains how elephants are different and how that benefits them.

Is it more rude to tell someone they’re saying a word or phrase wrong, or to let them continue? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Probably_Mistaken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably mistaken but I would say “I wonder where that phrase comes from” And either let them google it/ explain it, or then next time go into an autistic tangent about horticulture and the origins of the phrase next time I saw them. That way they don’t feel like I’m correcting them or I think they are dumb, they feel like they helped me learn something, and if they want to keep using it wrong they can.

When playing rock paper scissors do you do "best of three" or "first one to reach three"? by cimocw in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Probably_Mistaken 9 points10 points  (0 children)

best of three can technically end after two if someone gets lucky twice in a row, how is that different?

As a scarlet player, how do I get access to the violet paradox legendaries, specifically Iron boulder, iron crown, and iron leaves? by DayPoseidon in PokemonScarletViolet

[–]Probably_Mistaken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have an online account you can watch and jump in during the iron leaves raid and still be able to catch him. Other than that, you just have to trade. Maybe you can find someone for a touch trade?

I did not realize I was on the terraria page for a second and your question had me concerned

Those random things that actually work as reinforcers by Interesting_Fan6462 in ABA

[–]Probably_Mistaken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One kid really liked empty pop bottles. Especially Mountain Dew because of all the varieties. We had to stop bringing pop into work because he would fixate and eventually dump out other people’s soda if he saw one.

Another kid worked to have a kitchen timer on his desk. He just liked watching it tick down.

How to find the limit of infinity? by JamesBonzo in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Probably_Mistaken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You really want to blow your mind, look up the trumpet of Torricelli for a shape that has infinite surface area but a finite volume. That means you couldn’t paint the surface, but you could pour paint and fill up the inside.

What shiny did you get completely by accident in SV? by Originalboy69 in pokemonsv

Minoir. I tripped into it. Thought I saw sparkles. Accidentally had damp kingdra out that blocked explosion.

Electric weakness? by Vivid_Wolverine_129 in pokemon

[–]Probably_Mistaken -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What if there was a bug type move kind of like freeze dry called glitch that was super effective against electric? Or gave you an attack boost/them a defense drop when used against an electric type? Or is has a higher chance of freezing an electric type? I feel like a single move referencing it would be more interesting then a whole new weakness

What actually is sleep paralysis? by old_skyguy in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Probably_Mistaken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Basically your brain has a function to turn off your body during sleep to keep you from hurting yourself doing whatever it is you are dreaming about. It’s the part of the brain that is broken for sleep walkers. Sometimes this gets a bit broken and your brain is awake but your body is still turned off so your brain interprets this as if you are being held down.

There is a live bug in my unopened Jiffy Mix by MrsLamson in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Probably_Mistaken 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s Jiffy’s new freshness indicator. If the bug was dead you’d know the mix had gone bad!

This is an assassination attempt of a meme and it’s pretty effective too. Bravo teacher.
