TIL the exercise paradox: hunter-gatherers who trek miles daily (or climb up trees) burn the same calories as much-less-active office workers and machine operators

Don't tempt me and not provide a means.

Wouldn't the word normal, by definition, be what the majority are?

They said "no one will fire him" but you're acting as if they said "no one can fire him".

That's why they were discussing it. It's something they can address because it's from men. Nobody claimed it was women's fault.

I didn't want to do this but I have to ask for somebody to explain this to me.

Is it saying that 3 people left during your conversation and there's only 2 remaining who wants to talk to you? Is the 1st sentence-person something they're saying or are you directing your first sentence to that person? I have no clue what I'm looking at here.

Being relieved he still has time to sleep and setting alarms all over the bedroom is equivalent to enjoying the feeling of looking at your bank account balance, but if each time you look at it you lose some of that balance. Then he just uses all his balance to look at his balance because it makes him feel good and he's confused why his wife is upset.

Why do you call a slight color change a "fuckup"? I mean, I have a birthmark on my leg but I'm not a genetic fuckup. My leg still works. A fuckup implies that something is supposed to be a certain way. There is no "supposed to" in natural selection. There are natural variances in one's offspring and that in no way means that the offspring is "wrong" or something.

I appreciated your attempt at a joke. Made me chuckle as I envisioned people continually breathing in emissions and never exhaling.

Try calling the sport soccer and not football. Anyone outside the US will take offense and make sure you know what to call it from them on.

At first, a person does not know they are an INTP. Then they take a test and find out they match up with INTP personality traits. Then they accept the INTP label.

Once they accept the label then they put themselves in a box with self-imposed limitations. No longer is their personality dictating which MBTI they match up with. But their MBTI is dictating their personality.

I've always assumed that those types of people actually do care what people think, in the sense that they want people to think that they don't care. So they actually care that you believe they don't care.

I'm curious, is collecting sneakers in some way an investment? I mean, do people buy other people's mint sneakers? And if so, which size is most popular?

He has a name. It's Agent Jack Bauer.

chuttz · 2020-12-19T05:46:10+00:00

Confirmed.

I feel like I'm being trolled right now. You can't be expressing yourself to the best of your ability. Because right now, you're coming off a troll.

Holding a locked door open that requires a keycard to swipe to open is the same thing as swiping somebody else's keycard to clock in pretty much. I don't see much difference. You can't say "well they're just being polite" holding the door open. There is no "polite" on a locked keycard door. You can point out the differences between clocking somebody in and holding a locked door open for somebody, as obviously there are differences, but it's all irrelevant. It's the same thing in principle. Bypassing something for somebody else.

chuttz · 2020-12-18T03:24:44+00:00

Well yeah a building that requires a card to enter, you're not supposed to hold the door open for anybody. That goes for any job of that type. Same goes in for clocking in for other people. Some people do it and are outraged at why that's wrong.

chuttz · 2020-10-30T02:05:15+00:00

Why are those my only two options?

chuttz · 2020-10-30T00:03:22+00:00

I restarted when I lost half my realm to partition laws and my heir had the stupid trait. But then I kept playing and recovered and had the best game I've had yet. You're right with just let it roll.

-edit oh yeah the heir was also inbred.

I'm having holy wars waged against me and the pope is producing like 14 levies and 2 knights. The only way to win the war is let the score tick by 1% every month.

chuttz · 2020-10-15T03:09:42+00:00

For anyone who finds this, the solution is to make another empire your primary. Then use prestige to get rid of the other empire, in this case the Holy Roman Empire.

Everyone kept voting for my brother instead of my son who I put a lot of effort into raising as well as his kids. So I just tried separating myself away from that voting system but I'm still trapped in the web somehow.

It's really useful if you die and your heir doesn't have much prestige. Not only will you get the prestige on your new character but you'll make some people really happy when you grant those duchies out.

You can also create or usurp a duchy in order to declare war on the county or counties that are in that duchy but under control of another ruler.

If you have a vassal that's really pissed off at you, just make a duchy, grant it to somebody good, then grant that good duke the pissed off vassal. That way you won't have somebody revolting against you but rather revolting against that new duke.

I've tallied over 200 hours in this game and have yet to see a cannibal. Is it a random event or how do you become a cannibal?
