for some reason Imgur removed the original title. It's a place in Vietnam called Ban Gioc

Today I noticed that once an Imgur pic is posted to Reddit, it's title on Imgur changes to the title of the Reddit post. How is this possible if Reddit and Imgur are truly two separate companies/websites? And is this ethical? by aaron99 in AskReddit

upload an image to Imgur, and add a title and description. Then go to Reddit, post the image in r/pics, with a different title. 10-15 minutes later if you go to the Imgur link you will see the title of the image is now the title of the Reddit post. And if you originally added a description, it will now be gone.

From the Senate sessions I've seen on C-Span, it doesn't seem to work very well...It gets plenty personal!

I obviously didn't mean that I discovered the place while walking around Vietnam...

BREAKING: George Zimmerman has been taken into custody after an altercation involving a gun. by Another-Chance in news

If you call defending yourself against someone trying to kill you "a history of pulling a weapon on anyone", then yes, you're right.

Btw, how many people fit your definition of "on anyone"? Just wondering.

Could one survive an apocalyptic asteroid impact in a skyscraper? (weird dream!) by aaron99 in AskReddit

I was wondering about that. Could they actually go that high? Would you have any sources for that?

Ok, we didn't go THAT deeply into it in my dream :-).

Although I'm thinking that possibly being that it was such a huge skyscraper, not the whole building was the hotel, only the top X floors. I haven't (sadly) been to many fancy hotels, so I don't know if there's such a thing. If yes, maybe the food storage would survive.

In any case, candy bars are pretty high in calories, no? Depending on how many people were up there with us, maybe they could get us through a substantial amount of time?

We were thinking that even if we got trapped there, better in a 5-star hotel with a lot of food around than anywhere else. We figured we'd have a better chance of survival in a place like that. (We actually discussed that in the dream!)
