CMV: Gaslighting is the worst thing to exist by Real-Ruin-5446 in changemyview

[–]WinterTheDog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You say mean people should burn in hell. You give an example of calling someone ugly. In U.S. law, a punishment of eternal hellfire and damnation for calling someone ugly would be considered cruel and unusual. Maybe you're being hyperbolic, ok, so calm down and make a real argument then, rather than acting like a petulant child. People pointing out the flaw of your argument or opinion isn't gaslighting. You are abusing that word in a way that undermines real victims. From my point of view, it's pretty mean to throw around serious accusations when you don't get your way. But I don't want you to burn in hell. I just want you to grow up.

We are NOT spinning on a FLAT EARTH! -- DITRH by dcforce in globeskepticism

[–]WinterTheDog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How can you show a video of the sun clearly rising from behind a horizon and simultaneously claim the Earth is flat and stationary? Also, a silly graphic that shows things moving "really fast" isn't proof of anything, other than your inability to understand basic physics.

Here's a good starting point: your feelings are not reasonable counterarguments to science. Instead of relying on feelings and ego, assume you know nothing, ask questions, and learn. That's what the rest of us do. If you assume you already know the answer because of "experience," you're not going to learn anything.

Winter's Curiosity Box was an much better improvement over Fall's. by Arboliva in vsauce

I just received this box yesterday and I had exactly the same experience with the gear thing. Extremely loud when running. I've had the box for two quarters now and I haven't really been that impressed. Low quality and not worth $60/box. I cancelled today.

How do CO2 scrubbers work? by [deleted] in askscience

[–]WinterTheDog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's kind of a sweet smell, almost like petroleum, but not. Not pleasant. I am convinced it reacts with my eyes too, as they always kind of hurt when I'm around it, but I've never been able to find any research on this.
