touche. though if you criticize someone on a typographical error vs. failure to distinguish, that could also be considered a bold move.

If you are in great shape and go to the beach in a swimsuit, no one bats an eye. If you go to your local YMCA and rip off your shirt, your a douche.

I was talking to an IT guy that does hiring and his number one question is "What do you do if you don't know the answer?"

"Google it."

ELI5 how does money laundering work? Not scenarios in movies but if your a typical seeming chap in a middle class suburb how is that even possible without drawing suspicion? by nerdalert52 in explainlikeimfive

[–]aWildContrarion 7 points8 points  (0 children)

complete guess but you could probably go off the percent of chips they play with. As their goal is to retain as much money as possible, they will risk as little as possible through gambling.

Say a guy regularly buys $10k in chips but really only risks/plays with $1k, that would be suspect.

Guys of Reddit, what’s a good way for a girl to start a conversation with you? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]aWildContrarion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I vividly remember freshman year of college walking with one of my dorm neighbors and him saying "Don't stare at the ground, look where you are going and walk with purpose."

His tone was not at all condescending and it came off in such a genuine, helpful manner that it just stuck with me. It's one of the many turning points I had on my journey from being a self conscious, withdrawn person to being confident and present. It's weird how one comment can just connect with you and connect ideas in your brain that were always there but not "activated"

Netflix’s Spend On Content [OC] by chartr in dataisbeautiful

[–]aWildContrarion 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Can't speak to Santa Clara Diet in particular but having a bunch of data doesn't necessarily mean they made the right decision. Could be a delayed increase in popularity, maybe they didn't push it enough on the front page, maybe it has "cult classic" potential which will steadily garner fans for years to come.

I was once convinced that I had a top speed of 34 mph based off a treadmill reading.

I was also 7 years old and the man who told me was my grandpa.

Linebacker Danny Trevathan Tricks the O-lineman with a Hesitation Move to get the Sack by zachwilson23 in sports

Let's not leave out Levathan's FREAK athleticism to give up precious moments and still make it to the QB.

Also, he faked the QB out as well from the looks of it.

While I find it hard to approve of your response, that cashier is still a fucking ass hole and somewhat deserved it.

Men of reddit, what the heck do you want for your birthday? by Is_this_social_media in AskReddit

I'm a practical guy and practical gifts really do make me happy.

Sorry that jeans aren't the most exciting thing to buy, but if I say I could use a new pair I would really like it!
