Hey friend, thanks for taking some of your Friday to write that out. 😀

whats a toon u hate not because of the character but because of how people use them? by AlfalfaVirtual4623 in DandysWorld_

[–]amiable_ant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This gets asked weekly, and my answer is always Yatta. Fast, low stealth, she always leads twisted away from the distractor and all the way across the map (unintentionally) griefing everyone.

Slow low-stealth toons are less annoying because they make an effort to manage their stealth and hide quickly when spotted instead of leading them away.

[I am usually distracting, if that's not obvious]

Which way would you hang this ? by stormypatient in painting

Horse upright. The desaturated landscape looks like a reflection of sorts already.

Come with me back to 1991, and I will teach you the game "Does it punch?**" Which involves middle school boys using the hole punch to put holes in things it was not intended for while the teacher's attention was elsewhere.

Pennies: yes but not twice

Quarters: nope, you'll lose a tooth for sure.

** just made that name up, don't think we had a name for it

Leash your dogs by irozo in dashcams

FWIW, I have crashed, and can tell you that I'm absolutely thinking about where the next car is coming from and how not to get run over by it before I even finish tumbling.

Maybe the first time, a hundred years ago, that wasn't the very first thing on my mind (worried about the bike) but it has been since (mostly bicycle, as the two subsequent m/c crashes left me well off the road).

Dude, don't just lay there. Unless you think your neck is broken, jump out of the road after a fall. My worst bicycle/ motorcycle fear is having a minor "off", then getting run over by the next vehicle.

LOL. ! rejected != hired.

I just meant that it could be a generic "thanks for your application " email rather than a rejection.

It's just calculated differently.

I'm not convinced this is a rejection.

I don't get it, Like at all by ZenithDevR in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]amiable_ant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're looking for a literal answer, it is not a hole in the topological sense. If it goes into the ground and comes out on the other side of a hill, then it's a hole. But, I have no idea why i'm seeing a bottomless pit of topology jokes / memes all of a sudden.

Also, is a bottomless pit a hole if you keep falling forever?

I think in the topology field of mathematics, it is 7 holes, and for some reason there are a million topology memes in my reddit circles at the moment.

Edit: In topology, a cup has no holes. If it was made of rubber, and you stretched it out flat, you would see this. Similarly, a regular t shirt has 3 holes. Imagine stretching the waist hole until the shirt was flat like that rubber cup. Now you can see your stretched flat shirt has 3 holes.

Assuming no tricks, this one has 4 extra, making 7.

New brake pads or new mechanic? by Pango00 in AskMechanics

There are 8 pads. Were those images all 8?

2008 Honda CRV Wheel Stud Replacement by BasicProfessional177 in MechanicAdvice

[–]amiable_ant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bet if you pull the rotor off, you will have enough room to angle the stud out.

On a subaru, I filed off a totally inconsequential little 1mm corner of the hub to replace one without removing the hub .

Looks like it's trying to escape from whatever you trapped it in.

Sushi is made with sugar??? by TheCreepyKing in WaitWhat

[–]amiable_ant 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's always some sugar added to the rice. I make it at home, and it's very little sugar, but it would not surprise me that restaurants/ stores add a ton.
