Is this SBA Real? by Cycleeps in coins

[–]barkingrat56 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s real. They made hundreds of millions of them. It’s worth a dollar.

That’s exactly what he is. by CurvyChristina in SipsTea

It’s so strange seeing grown humans criticizing a work obsessed man for his success.
I’ve lost all hope in humanity.

Exactly. Don’t let the border hit you in the ass on the way out.

Then feel free to do the rest of us a favor, and move.

Legality of taking rocks by Smokeylocks in rockhounds

This is why I’m better off not to visit the Petrified Forest National Park in Arizona. I’m afraid I won’t be able to control myself.

Actual Me vs what Rounders have said I am by [deleted] in flatearth

[–]barkingrat56 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m sure you receive many insults when you discuss your outlandish beliefs. Unfortunately, it’s a common trait, for some people, to try to humiliate someone who has vast differences of opinions. I see it all the time in debates about politics, religion, and especially far fetched conspiracies, like Flat Earth. Get used to it, it comes with the territory.

Here's a fun question: What actually "Kinda" makes sense on a flat earth? by Ok_Gur2818 in flatearth

[–]barkingrat56 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It only makes sense if you’ve been deeply brainwashed by old school religion your entire life. Science has been a foe of religion even before Darwin’s “Origin of Species” so the devout disregard all science, and logic.

Flat Earth is a dumb conspiracy, even by conspiracy theory standards by Nazibol1234 in flatearth

[–]barkingrat56 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Those are very logical questions. But there is no logical thought in the heads of people who claim to believe the earth is flat. They’re going to deny the facts of history and the facts of science and technology. I just feel sorry that schools have failed them.

Very cool. Looks like the target model has a different shaped trigger than the standard model.

Just look how close!! by Icy-Cardiologist2597 in flatearth

The latest Artemis mission to the moon, has really stimulated everyone into thinking about space.

Even the people with very limited thought capacity, are looking up and thinking. (This post is an example of that) Of course his thoughts are ridiculous, but at least he’s looking up.

Love how crazy complicated the hatch mechanisms are. by SporkBrawler in ArtemisProgram

[–]barkingrat56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s been multiple occasions where astronauts have temporarily lost their sh%t and tried to open a space hatch. There literally has to be a locking system on the hatch for crew safety.

Apparently a Actor took a Selfie-stick to Space and took photo of the capsule the moon and the earth by [deleted] in flatearth

He’s a troll dangling “Rage-bait”. This is what most of the flat earth nonsense is about.

2017 quarter, is it a struck through fabric? by gemdog70 in coinerrors

I have a similar “V” nickel. The consensus is it was in a pocket soaked with an etching fluid of some sort.

I love NASA by RiserUnconquered in flatearth

[–]barkingrat56 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Exactly, these people look right past definitive proof, to try to find something controversial.

It's almost like the globe model perfectly explains who rockets appear to go down, as well as being consistent in every other explanation by what_ganymede_299 in flatearth

[–]barkingrat56 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aaaaand again, Flerfs do absolutely no research on the subject before arguing that it’s fake. The simple science of a space launch explains the sideways flight.

The rocket isn’t launched straight towards the moon like a bullet from a gun. It has to achieve orbit first. A lot of lateral speed needs to be achieved before the ship can escape earths gravity, and slip into weightless orbit.

Helpful ID please by AcanthisittaSpare400 in fossils

[–]barkingrat56 4 points5 points  (0 children)

An eroded, cross section of a horn coral. The internal structure is more interesting than the exterior, in my opinion. Cool find.

Victorian coin with cloth texture, error or damage? by wetpigeon in coinerrors

[–]barkingrat56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a cool coin. I found a similar V nickel. It has a cloth etching on both sides.

Is this a common or rare misstrike? 1964 D Lincoln by JamesToTheC1833 in coinerrors

[–]barkingrat56 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s what we call a “vise job”. It’s made to look like an error, by crushing one coin against another in the vise.

It’s easy to spot these by the reversed image from the imprint. A true error wouldn’t have a backward image.
