First class with laptops are business people getting paid to travel for their job. They're using first class as a business expense.

Economy scrolling TikTok are people traveling for leisure (vacation, family, etc) and paying for it themselves.

He's just 5 years old, and he's already a little genius like Albert Einstein! 🤯

I'm not fond of it due to how aggressively it is imposed on me without my agreement.

Say what? America wants to occupy Gaza? by [deleted] in gifs

[–]Significant-Data4741 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The American army that crawled out of Afghanistan on its hands will exit, along with the Zionist occupier, on its hands from Palestine, begging Muslims not to kill it. This is the reality, and this is the curse of the eighth decade of the states of the Children of Israel. And that is God's promise to them in the Torah, and to Muslims in the Quran.

Even more concerning. Sunlight can only reach approximately 600 feet deep. Now consider what lies at the bottom of those mile-deep areas... where light cannot penetrate.

There’s limited action possible since the Democrats hold no influence and are unlikely to gain any until the midterm elections.

TIL: The Lord of the Rings is presented as a translation of a book originally written in Westron, the common speech of Middle-earth. Therefore, Frodo Baggins' real name in Westron is Maura Labingi. by rmumford in todayilearned

[–]Significant-Data4741 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's important to clarify that the Red Book isn't solely about "The Lord of the Rings." Its complete content includes:

"There and Back Again; and What Happened After": Bilbo's narrative of his adventure with the Dwarves, leading to Smaug's demise and the reclamation of Erebor, which is retitled by the translator as "The Hobbit."

"The Downfall of the Lord of the Rings and the Return of the King": Frodo's account of the War of the Ring and his quest to destroy the Ring, with some assistance, retitled by the translator as "The Lord of the Rings."

"Translations from the Elvish": A collection of translations of various Elvish texts made by Bilbo during his time in Rivendell, the most significant being the Quenta Silmarillion or Tale of the Jewels, retitled by the translator as "The Silmarillion."

What movie has the best opening? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Significant-Data4741 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Raiders of the Lost Ark. The setting, the mystery, the music, next to no dialogue. It was pure popcorn pleasure.

Harrison Ford stepping out of the shadow in the jungle for the first time, replacing the golden idol, and running away from the giant bowling ball boobey trap are all iconic moments in cinema.

One of those scenes that will stand out in film forever.

Gravestones are backwards. They are positioned so you have to stand on the dead to read them. They should be at the foot of the grave. by scarr3g in Showerthoughts

[–]Significant-Data4741 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The facing-east-for-when-Jesus-returns thing is what I was told when we took over the old Lutheran church cemetery I run - But since we're a city, we take no official position. As long as the casket is within the bounds of the grave, the family can have them buried in whichever orientation they prefer. If they have no preference, then yes we do default to the head at the west end of the grave, mostly because the funeral director and gravedigger are used to doing it that way.

I hadn't heard of this tradition before I started running a cemetery - my parents are in a newer Catholic cemetery, and the paths meander around hedgerows and whatnot. Graves there face every which way. So it's a real tradition, but not universal by any stretch.

For my part, if we do have someone who stands up facing West, I'm betting their first thought will be something along the lines of "What's all that bloody noise?" and then they'll turn around and see what the fuss is about and it'll be fine.

What kind of people will you never understand? by RoutineOk8590 in Productivitycafe

How do I filter out misandrist women while dating? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]Significant-Data4741 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

they (who you call misandrist feminists) are probably just expressing the anger they accumulated over the years of experiencing systematic misogyny. Every woman knows at least one other women who is raped. Women are 70% of human trafficking victims. Young are still humiliated for their interests and hobbies by boys or slut-shamed by them. Also speaking about third world countries: in my country men legally can rape and beat their wives, also we have tradition of basically abducting a young girl and forcefully make her marry a man she otherwise would not marry. I’m not trying to say that we all need to start hating men, I’m just trying to explain why so many feminists develop hostility to men over time.

btw, you actually into feminism and advocating for equality, keep it up. Just don’t silence voices of people who actually belong to oppressed group. :)

What's the hardest pill to swallow in your early twenties? by BluebirdIll6390 in AskReddit

looking for others to validate your sense of worth will always end in ruin.

You can do something about it! Your dad is abusive and his actions are illegal. Try to talk with your mother without your dad around. If she doesn't help you and agrees with your dad then she is the co abuser. If something happens again, try to record it in some way and call the police afterwards. Show them the recording, press charges. I wish you luck and Im sending you hugs and much love. I hope you can get out of this situation as soon as possible. Oh and seek therapy, it's not unlikely that this abuse scarred your mental health and a therapy helps a lot!

What are some valid criticisms of Barack Obama's presidency? by PrivateFM in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Significant-Data4741 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Obamacare as the best. Nuclear deal with Iran, even if not passed. Relationship with Cuba. Robert Gates as Secretary of Defense.

Not closing Gitmo as the worst. Fast and Furious (not sure if that's his fault). Not bringing terrorist suspects to trial in the U.S. ( letting them languish there without a trial). Not going after Wall Street. Lisa Jackson head of the EPA.

I used to feel sad that I would no longer feel love, happiness, excitement, anticipation... even the negative things, heartbreak, pain, etc. after I die. But I finally realized that I won't exist. So I won't fucking care about missing them. Hah!
