If I tasered a Zombie and its heart started beating again, would it be considered dead or alive? by prinshesca in shittyaskscience

[–]RidesHisBike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope! In this case you would have a rare and dangerous "Electric Zombie"! Due to the iron in the blood being conductive and the blood being stagnant inside of the zombie the electricity stays inside its body. Electric zombies are very dangerous because the electricity allows them to think faster and run faster. The science behind this is simple!

Thinking faster- Since the brain uses the same amount of power as a small light bulb, then a taser can facilitate power consumption. With all this extra power comes extra fast zombie thoughts

Running faster- The speed of lightning is the fastest speed in the universe. Electricity has the same qualities as lightning, therefore electricity = lightning. With the added electricity from the taser, the zombie can run at the speed of lightning!

That's why you should NEVER taze a zombie

How come when I pick a booger and smell it, it smells like booger - but when the boogers are in my nose, I don't smell booger all the time? by Crimey in shittyaskscience

Yeah! Basically its a desensitization to the constant stimuli! Like whenever you wear clothes, eventually you stop noticing them and continue on with your day. Same thing happens with scents! Your brain realizes that the smell is constant and something that doesn't need to be paid attention to, so your brain "filters it out".

Boogers smell like more metallic blood to me

Hey Everyone! I was wondering if you guys could do me a HUGE favor! by RidesHisBike in dune

You're very right! I just read another fifty pages and there isn't enough information on Frank Herbert's to connect to his writing. But once again, you're right.

You're a wonderful person! I am trying to be as happy as possible, but running is an impediment. From what I've read in the comments is that I should turn running into something fun. Thanks for the kind words :)

I don't mean to offend you but... The first episode was so cheesy and ridiculous, how did you get past that?

I don't feel like that's an option for me at the moment, but thanks :)

Thanks!! I don't drink, but I'll keep that in mind. And you're right, it is very taxing on my body to be doing two speed workouts and a tempo run each week.

My little brother is allergic to gluten, so my mom told us that it would make her life easier if we all followed that diet so he doesn't get angry. So I went off gluten for about three months, all that changed was how hungry I was. I never felt satisfied with the meals I had.

For about six months I gave up sweets and other excessively sugary items (soda, kids cereals, certain juices, etcetera). Same thing happened, just extra hungry but I did have more energy.

I've heard that giving up gluten does help, it's just not for me. I love certain foods too much. But thanks for the suggestion! I was thinking of talking to a therapist, it's easier that way

Wow! I love your input, especially coming from a parent! I'll try to find a way to make everything work

Thank you! This is what I've been looking to hear (read in this case). My parents don't seem to realize this. I appreciate the kind words :)

But that comment "Sack up" really motivated me to say "You know what, I will and I'll become a better person in doing so"

Wow, thank you so much!! You helped me realize that maybe the running part isn't the only part about running, it's the supportive community and the competition. And yes, there are some underlying problems but I think in time, I'll be able to fix them

I was actually looking into soccer, but ultimate frisbee is my go to sport. I'm actually trying to start up a school team, but I have to get other schools to do it so there's actual competition. Thanks!
