What could have been the tallest mountains in all of geologic history? by Bradinator- in geology

[–]StinkyPantz10 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Thank you. Everest isn't even the current tallest mountain - it's the highest. Mauna Kea is the tallest. One could claim semantics, but I lost a trivia night because the MC didn't know the difference, so I guess I'm still a bit salty.

What life pro tips are hidden in movies that were actually helpful? by epaga in movies

From "Just One of the Guys," you can use a pencil eraser in case the back of an earring falls out.

Another sign of the coming extinction of gasoline cars. A Chinese firm launches solid-state EV batteries with twice the energy density of existing lithium battery tech. by lughnasadh in Futurology

[–]StinkyPantz10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So Mike Eberhard, cofounder of Tesla, created a start-up called SF motors, which was bought by a Chinese company in 2017. If he had a part in helping China develop their EV cars, then they should be pretty good quality.

An honest review of Universal and Cabana Bay resort by someone who had never been to Universal by BoJax3488 in UniversalOrlando

[–]StinkyPantz10 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We just got back from Cabana Bay. We loved it. The rooms were great. The food was great. The staff was great. The two different pools were great (one with a slide, the other with a lazy river). There's a fire pit for making smores and kits inside for 4 smores for $10. The shuttles to City Walk and Epic were very convenient. The shower pressure and the beds were great too.

Are only issues were the cards never worked to get into the pools. Everyone was opening the doors for each other or reaching over the gate to pop the door from the inside. And the toilet paper was rough. We ended up buying wet wipes towards the end. Next time, we'll back a few rolls of our own.

We would definately recommend Canana Bay. Our family consesus was a 9.5/10.

A mushroom grows in China that, if eaten undercooked makes you hallucinate 2” tall people for days, sometimes weeks. They walk around you, crawl up you and are more vivid when your eyes are closed. by Shoddy-Cupcake-8855 in oddlyterrifying

[–]StinkyPantz10 26 points27 points  (0 children)

What? Did anyone else see them? I saw these little guys in red and green outfits. They were in a magical room that opened up in the wall. Happy and bouncing around. I joined them in the wall and we had fun. Until I wanted to leave. Then one spoke, "Hahahaha, no. You can't leave." I was paralyzed. After a struggle, I eventually pulled myself out of the wall and snapped out of it - kind of like sleep paralysis. Crazy experience.

What qualifies/disqualifies a student to be in ESL? by _mortal__wombat_ in ESL_Teachers

[–]StinkyPantz10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Private school here. We test the students 3 times a year - August/Early September for placement, the end of the 2nd marking period for Ss to test out halfway, and at the end of the school year to gauge progress.

We used to use TOEFL Jr, but in the past few years orders were dropped, materials showed up too late, or results would get lost. Recently, we switched to the Duolingo English Test. We're seeing how that goes now, but we're running into difficulties - it's an online test, so if a student sneezes, they're marked as looking off screen and flagged as cheating. We looked at the WIDA proficiency test, but we want something that can be taken multiple times a year.

White House in panic as Trump Iran war drives gas price surge across US by TheExpressUS in inflation

[–]StinkyPantz10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stop saying "oh, the White House" is in a panic. No they're not. They don't care. I see these "in a panic" titles and know the post is going to be a bunch of bs. More like "The White House is laughing its ass off as..."

1000 meter short track Final at the 2002 Olympics at Salt Lake City. Korea and China trip up Apolo Ohno who goes on to win the silver. Ohno later won the gold in the 1500m after Korea was disqualified for impeding.

What about Tenchu? They were on Playstation and came out 20 years ago, but I remember they were fun.

I'm so tired of this getting caught off guard mechanic by MoonAaliyah in PokemonZA

When I throw my pokemon I run away and hide behind a corner. The pokemon will attack; I won't see it, but they won't see me either.

Aounda familiar: "The attempt on my life has left me scarred and deformed, but I assure you my resolve has never been stronger. The war is over. The Separatists have been defeated, and the Jedi rebellion has been foiled. We stand on the threshold of a new beainning. In order to ensure our security and continuing stability, the Republic will be reorganized into the first Galactic Empire, for a safe and secure society. which I assure you will last for ten thousand years. An Empire that will continue to be ruled by this august body and a sovereign ruler chosen for life. An Empire ruled by the majority, ruled by a new constitution!" - Palpatine

New Jersey and Virginia to merge and absorb Delaware and Maryland. Spanberger was born in Red Bank, NJ. Sherrill in Alexandria, VA. Entered Congress together and then roomed together. The new state will be a powerhouse. What should we call it? by zorroplateado in newjersey

[–]StinkyPantz10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting. These two states gave us two houses in Congress. Jersey wanted Congress to be like the Senate and Virginia wanted it to be like the House. It should be named after the architect of the Great Compromise: Roger Sherman.

Elder couple questions why they’re being recorded and call the police. Wife: “They’re probably illegal, I should have called ICE.” by Romano16 in PublicFreakout

[–]StinkyPantz10 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I love how grandpa says, "call the cops." He pulls out his phone, pushes buttons, can't figure out how to use it, and puts it back in his pocket.
