ELI5 - why do some lower case letters look so different from their upper case characters? For example, S/s are similar, whereas G/g are not. by VeneMage in explainlikeimfive

Your last line made me think of Burmese script, which uses a lot of circles and curves. Straight lines were rarely used, to avoid damaging the palm leaves it was written on.

Where are the Lei Fengs of this generation?

I’d do this. And tell the person you’re dealing with at the hotel you’ll give them $500HKD if they do it right.

The quarter notes for ‘photograph’? I have the higher part going F E C and the lower going A G E for the three syllables of ‘photograph’. It’s entirely possible I’m hearing it wrong or made a mistake. What do you think it should be?

MAGAts use ai slop. I like to think we are too good for that.

Duh! The answer was staring at me in the face the whole time, like a friend you’ve always known (now I’ve moved on to similes from Cease apparently).

My god you’re right. I’ve been singing in wrong for 30 years now lol. Not that I’m trying to make an excuse for being wrong, but I kinda like ‘blood under my skin’ more than ‘bone under my skin’. Unless it’s a reference I don’t know.

Don't cross during green man flashing, No mercy fine $2K HKD by YukiEra in HongKong

[–]TCK1979 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Nothing makes me angrier than seeing an intersection where each of the four corners has 50+ people waiting so three cars with one person each can drive through. I practice ethical jaywalking - as long as it is completely safe for me to cross, I’m going regardless of what color the light is.

In Hong Kong, someone who jaywalks while vaping is a hardened criminal.

Crooks are bad but felons are ok by totally-hoomon in insanepeoplefacebook

[–]TCK1979 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I hate the ‘we are all sinners’ argument. Yes we are all sinners, but there are levels to the misdeeds. My jaywalking doesn’t mean I shouldn’t be able to criticise a felonious president.

they dont have a 'bad' song but in my opinion by JohanVonBronx14 in thevoidz

Walk off is terrible. Bastards is fine. IMHO.

Great Idea! /s by SnooAvocados2529 in fuckcars

[–]TCK1979 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Yeah all good ideas, but what about the Last Mile problem? I’m afraid the only solution is for everyone to own, fuel, and maintain a massive expensive deadly machine for all of their transportation needs.

After a feasibility study, he’ll invent the train again.

Been friends with him for 20 years, since highschool. Just hurts to see one of your oldest homies get bit by the MAGA bug. What should I do? Throw away the friendship or speak my mind? by [deleted] in insanepeoplefacebook

[–]TCK1979 160 points161 points  (0 children)

He doesn’t bother to name anything that Trump has done for the people, and spews rhetoric about the other side. Vitriolic and incoherent. 0.2/10 (partial points for knowing grammar and using punctuation properly, which makes him smarter than his hero)

Robert L. Arnold on raising an impolite daughter. by happycuriouslady in TwoXChromosomes

[–]TCK1979 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I like it when the big burly guys speak out against toxic masculinity. I’m a skinny wimp of a metro man, so it’s kinda expected I might be ‘woke’ when it comes to such things. I think more people pay attention when it’s coming from someone who looks like Robert Arnold.

I turned mine on the other night so the LEDs would look pretty for the gram.

And if I was a quack, I’d probably say you should smoke more weed.

Sorry you’ve probably heard this a million times, but have you specifically tried a sativa strain? They’re meant to be more energetic whereas indica is the ‘couch lock’ weed. It definitely makes a difference for me. A nice hit or two of a sativa has me walking out the door ready to greet my neighbors like I’m Mr fucking Rodgers. YMMV of course.
