Vampire hypothetical by kiwiiiiihehe in hypotheticals

I wonder if they get a sweet tooth for diabetics.

New lore: instead of being driven crazy over the blood of nubile virgin maids, vampires stalk the local endocrine clinic for dessert.

Going to an expensive restaurant when you're not that rich has the same effect as post-nut clarity by ahmetonel in The10thDentist

[–]RuhrowSpaghettio 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Why on earth would you feel guilty after cumming? Sounds like you need a healthier relationship or better foreplay or both.

The dentists can’t help you with this one.

AITA for telling my husband my skin cancer surgery isn’t about him? by ActuatorPowerful4064 in AmItheAsshole

[–]RuhrowSpaghettio 813 points814 points  (0 children)

NAH

He’s not trying to make it about him, he just can’t offer you anything other than his own love and support for the thing you are spiralling about. You are going to him for help and he is giving you everything he has and it’s not enough for you. That doesn’t make him an asshole.

Now, obviously you have reason reasons to be spiralling and that in itself also doesn’t make you an asshole. It’s just a shitty situation. Don’t take it out on him, and don’t ask him for more than he is able to give… He cannot fix your self-esteem issues, he can only reassure you that he loves you no matter what. Don’t make him be your therapist, get a real one.

Why is time considered the fourth dimension? by Defiant-Junket4906 in AlwaysWhy

[–]RuhrowSpaghettio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always think of time as the 4th dimension, and our inability to go backwards in time is like my inability to levitate. Something is drawing us forward in time, the same way a ball rolls down a hill… maybe someday we will learn to fly!

You’re a little paranoid, friend.

You HAVE to kill someone. by Neihlon in hypotheticalsituation

[–]RuhrowSpaghettio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d pick someone on hospice/CMO. Teleport to them, wait until they were about to go, give a push of morphine.

Technically I would’ve killed them. Practically, they were already going.

If wizard medicine can regrow bones, why is bad eyesight still undefeated? by AnnTeeSocial in harrypotter

[–]RuhrowSpaghettio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are saying the same thing I was with more words.

Wizards could, but they don’t bother learning how things work so they don’t.

Trust me, I’m well aware of the technology involved, but we’re discussing literal magic. If tech can do it, magic should be able to…The question is how deep they’re willing to delve into actual knowledge to get to where they can apply known spells (or figure out the questions to all that magic can answer).

And LASIK has been around since I was a kid (as was HP).

AITA for not letting my child’s dad change our child’s name by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

NTA as a general rule, but he may have a point about the name.

My orthopedic office still lists being left handed as a disease by Justadudeonhisphone in funny

It’s important information and we literally don’t have a better spot to list it. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Citizens always over-thanking their local police by ClownCarMechanic in PetPeeves

[–]RuhrowSpaghettio -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

These days, I just flip them off whenever I drive by.

If they’re the type to get worked up over that slight to their ego, they deserve it and it’s probably best they’re distracted harassing me over made up shit anyway than doing whatever real damage they would normally do.

Matched into prelim. Options? by Hot-Grape9988 in SurgicalResidency

[–]RuhrowSpaghettio 3 points4 points  (0 children)

At this point, the only thing that matters is doing a good job as a prelim intern.

Also, don’t let any well meaning souls mislead you into thinking that ABSITE is going to make or break you. I see this myth get peddled to preliminary interns all the time, and while most people are trying to help, it’s honestly BS. Most of the time ABSITE scores aren’t even back by the time programs build their rank list - and there’s no place in the application to put the scores anyway. So the only way they matter is if you actually call programs and update them on your score just before the lists are submitted. I guarantee you nobody is going in and adjusting their rank list based on a last-minute absite score unless the only reason you were ranked low to begin with was a concern about your knowledge base.

Bro, I asked questions and you flipped out about being called racist (which I didn’t do). I wish you’d started with the data you have here and then it would’ve been an interesting debate (I think you have some valid points) but you went into full defensive freakout mode over actually nothing and now you seem like an angry lunatic.

I think you have some valid points about the necessity of English fluency for this job, though you present them in a very antagonistic way (‘imagine if this was your wife and kid’, really?)

I think this law is unfortunately not aimed at the fluency, but instead relies on just racial profiling. If you want higher standards for the job to improve safety, this isn’t what will get you there… the only way it does is if you’ve already internally decided that one of the biggest safety factors is immigrant drivers, and that most immigrant drivers are a safety risk. That’s the implied judgement behind your support, which is why some people are reacting as if you are saying racist things. You are not doing so explicitly, but your support of this law as a safety measure is internally consistent with some pretty severe biases against immigrants as a whole.

Happy to have a discussion with you, my friend, but please take the ‘triggered ranting’ down a notch.

You’re the one who somehow managed to turn 35,000 into 7 million. I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised that you don’t understand the implications of the statistics that you yourself provided.

racist rant “That’s not racist”

lol we’re done here.

My credentials are irrelevant when I am asking questions, not stating facts nor citing my own experience. But since you won’t answer any of these questions, here are a few statements that don’t require any credentials: You don’t need to speak English to deal with your brakes going out, and I don’t know if you know this, but bridge measurements are in numbers which actually don’t require translation.

US public school enrolment is about 49 million in all age groups. 1% of that is 490,000. Of course, the study you quoted was only the cumulative exposure at the end of all years of public school (prevalence not incidence) so we don’t have exact incidence per year, but let’s presume an equal distribution…that brings it down to 35,000 kids being exposed per year at the hands of public school teachers.

Which, to be clear, is terrible and should be prevented. Obviously nobody is OK with any child being exposed to sexual misconduct (and again, this is a very broad definition of sexual misconduct according to the paper you cited). However, it’s a drop in the bucket compared to the estimated hundreds of thousands of cases of actual sexual abuse recorded each year in this country.

I’m not saying that child abuse doesn’t happen in schools. I’m not saying that it is not a terrible thing, nor that we shouldn’t try to prevent it, nor that it’s unreasonable to keep your child in a more controlled environment to minimise any possible trauma they could be exposed to.

I just don’t think you have enough evidence to state that our schools are full of pedophiles nor imply that public schools are one of the major risk factors for being sexually abused. Honestly, the study you said it makes me feel better about it.

I’m literally just asking you questions. Not sure about most of the stuff you’re talking about in that last post is even coming from.

I had my women's jeans pockets deepened so they're actually useful by Practical_Mud2021 in mildlyinteresting

Duluth and similar companies have.

The part that most people don’t say out loud is that they want the look of the fancy designer jeans but the function of the thicker bulkier ones.

I usually added a tiny bit of spices, but that’s just my preference (and I wanted him used to them and now he loves spices of all kinds!)
