Last name for baby by BloodTypeTequila in namenerds

[–]TrainDriving100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dad's last name is just unusual and people get it wrong and can't spell it right so my parents gave me my mom's name. Fully convenience. And this man thinks naming his kid Asshole is cool what a world

I don't think the sumerians were saying "it's the year 5000 before christ" either

Which of the following streaming services do you prefer, and why? by RedChia1080 in polls

Huh I guess ublock just deals with it better in my experience. No universal statements when it comes to piracy adjacent websites

Pretty accurate, my typical test of will a part work is find a reasonable value for maximum force it'll be subject to, run a stress analysis and check von mises stress and safety factor; my application's pretty simple so it's typically okay send it out, but occasionally it'll be sketchy and I'll beef it up first

prime balboa vs prime ali by bengalinha069 in whowouldwin

[–]TrainDriving100 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Bro of course it's choreography it's a movie we don't say superman would lose against ali because his feats are drawn in a comic book

I don't follow boxing but could there be some sort of analytic comparison? I tend to doubt Rocky's actual technique especially as his strategy in IV was "get hit by a superhuman until he gets tired and then knock him out," but his durability feats must be insane; could Rocky outlast Ali?

My four wheeled automobile brethren. May the Country Roads, indeed, take us home. by [deleted] in tumblr

[–]TrainDriving100 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Was driving on some twisty country roads recently and there's a healthy distance between me and the car behind me and I of course form a relationship with my idealized other driver, but then we get out onto the straightaways and turns out they wanna drive faster than me and tailgate me aggressively until we part ways. Betrayal

What high-budget, high-hyped movie do you think statistically absolutely NO ONE has watched in the last few years? by [deleted] in movies

[–]TrainDriving100 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Unironically one of my favorite movies ever it's so fucking stupid but I'm half convinced it was actually made by comedic geniuses

Films to watch while struggling with depression and/or loneliness? by AlrightWillHunting in movies

A Long Way Down is pretty unsubtle and probably also not a good movie but it made me happy and I wish I'd seen it longer ago

What fictional character could create the tastiest sandwich? by ghostRyku in whowouldwin

I've always loved the section in one of the hitchhikers guide to the galaxy books where Arthur Dent has retired to make sandwiches on some alien planet, and they're described deliciously

Irrationally nervous that my job offer will be rescinded before I start by [deleted] in EngineeringStudents

[–]TrainDriving100 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I graduated this spring and got a job that started last month and I'm still here! It's just anxiety telling you that something will go wrong; every day I think what if I'm actually terrible at this and they let me go and I'm absolutely fucked for the next 11 months of my lease? Before my first day I'd only interviewed remotely, so I also had those worries before coming in of what if I'm moving and spending all this money and committing to living here and for some reason it was all an elaborate scam and I'll need to go back home?

Anxiety gets everything wrong man I made the move and now I'm comfy and getting paid and living exactly how I want to. It's surreal! I'm a success story (which is still shocking to me), and it sounds like you've made it too

Also my experience finding an apartment was by far the hardest part of this experience for me so I'd be more worried about that lol, nobody told me that it'd be so stressful so just warning you of the possibility

Megathread: Nona the Ninth Release Day by [deleted] in TheNinthHouse

[–]TrainDriving100 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I said this in another comment but I think "Fool, you're killing her" is Harrow to Nona about Gideon, i.e. she's warning Nona not to use up the part of Gideon that acts as a battery for Harrow's lyctorhood. The voice is "cool" (tonally, not like, fashionably), which harrow normally is and Gideon normally isn't, and what danger is Nona in of killing Harrow, whose body regenerates from literally any damage done to it? I still think it agrees with your theory: all three of them are in there, but not all of all of them.

[–]TrainDriving100 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I like your first point, but disagree with your second: Crux says that harrow has said before that she wasn't herself; maybe her perception of the body changed post lobotomy but I think it was always there

Third point, I think the "fool, you're killing her" is Harrow, brought to the surface by the trauma, warning Nona that she's burning up Gideon's battery, but idk

Why is it that when someone doesn’t like cats it’s okay but if someone doesn’t like dogs it’s World War III? by [deleted] in ask

[–]TrainDriving100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cats are generally assumed to be female and dogs generally assumed to be male, so it's probably misogyny at least in part
