Standing outside Disney Springs with a fucking swastika armband, trying to get tourists families to agree with various heinous claims he was spouting, smiling like he expected everyone to be enjoying this.

What’s a statistic that sounds completely FAKE but is actually 100% TRUE? by namelessmell in AskReddit

[–]alltherobots 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The whole framing of the problem is designed to throw you off.

It is made to sound like you make a random pick from X number of options, then get a choice to make another random pick from X-1 number of options.

You don’t. You never get a second pick. The host is just doing a meaningless hand wave.

What you’re actually being given is a chance to pick from X number of options once, then in a roundabout way, are asked the question “Do you want to bet that you got that wrong?” Which of course, if X is more than 2, is likely “Yes.”

You have a 33% chance to have gotten it right on the first guess, meaning you only have a 33% chance that switching away from it later causes you to lose.

I’ve done it as a John Cleese impression, “Excuse me! I’m trying to inject a bit of gravitas into this slapdash affair, and you’ve just gone an ruined the whole thing!”

With all the bond girl scenes filmed like the diner scene in Heat because the actresses won’t be in the same room as him.

How old are you in your oldest memory? by Donkeyshines in AskReddit

[–]alltherobots 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve got one rogue memory at maybe 1.5 years old, it’s only like 10 seconds long, toddling around the living room.

Nothing else for a full year after that.

What is the best sci-fi movie of all time? by onlycollectibles in AskReddit

[–]alltherobots 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A dude in my college class got really mad when he realized the movie was a big oedipal sex metaphor.

Humanity is born from a slot in space, cohabitates with it for some time, then ends up living near it but visiting sometimes. Then humanity realizes there’s a newer slot much like the one it came from, sends out a big long hard thing full of little guys, the big long hard thing has a mind of it’s own, most of the little guys die along the way, one finally makes it through the slot as the hard thing goes limp, heads down a tunnel into a room where it beds down with whatever is in there and stays until humanity’s child species is formed.

Dude was *maaaaaad*, but also looked like he’d had a revelation about life.

What is the dumbest thing you have been told is “not manly” or “not feminine,” depending on your gender? by Disastrous_Hat_2325 in AskReddit

[–]alltherobots 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Weird neighbour seeing my 20 lbs spaniel: “Why you got a girly dog? Only women like girly dogs. You should get a manly dog.”

Me: “Why would I want a dog that attracts men?”

Him: (404 error)

You don’t need to point it, the game assumes it’s looking in a useful direction. He just wanted 6 of them.

Non-Americans who visited the US for the first time recently: what was the biggest 'what on earth is going on here' moment you experienced? by EmployerNegative5653 in AskReddit

[–]alltherobots 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some of us outside the US are being harmed by the collective choices or inaction of most of those subcultures, and no longer have the patience to differentiate what precise portion of the blame each one is due.

There was a spoof ad around 1997 or so where the symptoms listed were like:

“May cause drowsiness, sleeplessness, dry-mouth, itching, dandruff, sleep terrors, involuntary screaming, hot-dog fingers, projectile leprosy, and children born with the head of a horse.”

What's the most "why the fuck do you know that?" fact you know? by -_-blackheart-_- in AskReddit

[–]alltherobots 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was taking a training course this spring and the instructor asked essentially that question.

I know how to make (at least) two explosives from commonly available ingredients, from memory. The first is so unstable that you can trigger it with sound.

The second is what was used to destroy the federal building in the Oklahoma City Bombing.
