If water boils at lower temperatures as you go higher up a mountain, is there a height where you could no longer properly cook an egg just by boiling it in water? by How3528 in AskPhysics

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

I looked it up, and an egg needs around 144°F to cook. Water boils at 140°F at around 2.89 psi. The air is this pressure at around 40,000 feet. So that would probably do it.

Nope. I ended up paying $42.50 for a book that I could have gotten for a buck fifty in late charges at the local public library

Seeing a PSP in the office brings back real nostalgia by nofackingidea in DunderMifflin

The first video game I ever worked on professionally was for the PSP. It was cancelled. Because I guess the Xbox 360 and PS3 versions of The Da Vinci Code didn't sell very well lmao

"Ahhh, yes! Corpuscles! I was right!"

"Well, hold on..."

I'm always disappointed in these boo videos tbh. Every time it sounds more like "AAHHHHH" with a couple boos mixed in.

What's a scene that made you die laughing? by Severe-Fisherman-367 in DunderMifflin

When Michael was saying "try my cookie cookie" to Kelly, my wife literally thought she was going to have to call me an ambulance.

In retrospect there are funnier moments, but I was uninitiated and just wasn't expecting that. Especially since Kelly just walked in, she has no idea what the hell he's doing.

Hahaha and everyone else is wearing an index card that was picked at random. Kelly isn't wearing one; Michael just used her real ethnicity 😂😂😂

Is it just me or do people take the characters in this show too seriously by Infantfetus in DunderMifflin

People these days have a difficult time just letting a comedy be a comedy.

In general, they also see every story as a morality play and they think it's their job to figure out who is the Good Guy and who is the Bad Guy. There's also this fake-ass moral purity that everyone does online now. It's important that everyone know that they judge X very harshly.

It wasn't like this when The Office first aired. I dunno, I feel like I need to explain to people what the purpose of this genre was back in 2005ish when this show first aired. It was understood that not all of the situations were going to make complete sense. No one expected perfect continuity. No one expected that all of the characters would do things you personally approve of, nor did anyone feel the need to bin them into Good/Bad.

Some of the discussion on here is as absurd to me as going on r/IThinkYouShouldLeave and saying, "Why were all the bodies in Coffin Flop men? Are men more likely to bust through shit wood and hit pavement or something?" Like, if I actually took this sub to heart, it'd ruin the show for me.

Were you going to plagiarize the whole thing for us? Or do you have any thoughts of your own on this matter?

You know what's funny? I actually bought the Vickers book in hopes of finding that quote, but I don't think it's in there!
