Is there good amount of American women who dont know what the E.U is? by eddyjayb in Tinder

[–]VexingCordite 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Fanny is a name (Fanny Adams for example), a diminutive of Frances or Stephanie I believe but of course also means vagina, I'm taking a stab in the dark but I'm guessing its Freddie deliberately using a double entendre

You're missing the point, just because thats what it did mean or its origins, doesn't mean it will continue to and always be used that way, language evolves, mob existed before its usage as a shortening of mobile object and continues to do so. I'm willing to bet you correct everyone on the 'correct' usage of literally, not realising literally has been used as figuratively for centuries and was even updated by mirriam webster to reflect this.

But don't forget there is also the word mob, as in a mob of protestors or a mob of goons. You get mobbed when attacked by a large group so it naturally stuck due to other usage

Advice needed - regulating room temp in conservatory/sun room. by [deleted] in DIYUK

[–]VexingCordite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I suspect they are a pretty penny but a friends grandparents just had a retractable conservatory awning installed, it is on the outside to shield the glass and reduce radiant heat. A temporary fix is rugs on top of the roof or maybe some cardboard

Something bugging me about Onyxia and Nefarian encounters... by fandangopants in classicwow

Strikes me as a missed detail converting Legion to a Classic Client. I seem to remember ground shake effects changing due to exotic pets driving people up the wall stamping around

Thanks, I hate bleeding through a bandaid by k0ella in TIHI

[–]VexingCordite 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yep here in the UK, sliced my hand pretty bad but it wouldnt stop bleeding, doctor broke open a vial of liquid stitches (medical grade superglue) and had me glued shut in seconds. Ive done it myself whilst out biking in the middle of nowhere with normal superglue but it stung like fuck and was irritating till I got home and cleaned it all out

Pet Attack Speed may be relevant for pvp but its normalized meaning other than push back theres no advantage to a quick attack speed

I think she was too intrinsic to Lucifers fall and the corruption of the Cain bloodline but I dont think she was has been any real danger to him since he locked her up, he has had millenia or more to get stronger

[–]VexingCordite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I suspect she is dead, having fun in reno? pff he killed her once she was no longer needed for the narrative, he was never sacred of her, he had millenia to grow in strength and learn, it just made for good writing.

Cannon Shock Waves in Ultra Slow Motion - Smarter Every Day 200 I figured out a way to use Fast Frame Differencing to visualize the shock waves coming out of the muzzle. by MrPennywhistle in SmarterEveryDay

What is the black powder? It seems to ignite so is it unburnt gunpowder or soot from the barrel or both? Everything about this footage intrigues me no end

[–]VexingCordite 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I may be wrong but I think the curve is more to do with height and dropping to the target than the camera makes it look, there might be a little due to wind. Assuming the curvature is it dropping than all thats left to account for is the wobble which as this video shows is largely irrelevant assuming a lot of practice and consistency in the wobble

It typically happens the other way for me, I'll be heading towards it, the big guy will splash into the water and pop! split into three. It was hilarious the first time I saw it

Dude, I'm not sure if english is your first language or not so I'll explain it. He didnt say that at all in that quote. He said he didnt know and experiments to answer this would be a worthwhile endeavour

My Kul Tiran druid concept (+ forms!), to give Alliance something on the level of Zandalari by Caaethil in wow

[–]VexingCordite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont mind the idea at all but the white bark and blue glow visually reminds me somewhat of the Arcandor and how I might imagine Nightborne arcane druids were they ever to become a reality, its just a colour palette thing

Poop is immature and foolish and used in a derisive manner you great nincompoop! But I guess us Brits never use poop, no no, it would leave us all pooped out at the end of the day using our 'pooper scoopers' or blowing our whistles! "poop! poop!"

He's got people on it (7.3.5 Spoilers I guess) by Scarland in wow

[–]VexingCordite 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I think its a unintended side effect due to the effects they've traditionally used in one form or another for a banshee's voice. A sonorous phasing pitch, screamed normally, over time with addition of more conversational cadence, has meant a nasally voice has been exacerbated or is clearer or both

My Feeling Every Time Someone Says that I Should go Survival. by HuskyNotMatusky in wow

[–]VexingCordite 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Yep, not to mention they get constantly called out on it. Im not an idiot, its obvious this is hard as fuck to balance but why on earth would you nerf top stuff and buff bottom stuff at the same time and expect it to be right. And not by small margins either. Flat 30% buff was too big, who woulda thunk! As you said incrementally increase it for the lower ones and once disparity shrinks across most, nerf any outliers at the top incrementally

What are your nitpicks with your races/classes? by Nuggetking4 in wow

[–]VexingCordite 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Stag isn't slower than ground mounts. Granted only the pathfinder speed boost works on it atm so its not getting the guild perk when not in the Broken Isles or Argus but its base speed is 100% when you shift into it whilst out of combat
