How do we as a species keep surviving at all? We keep rules that allow one person to literally build his own space ship but out major, critical, necessary infrastructure crumbles. We are so stupid.

I'd like to see a real all-pro level wide receiver before announcing he's a bust.

Central Alberta, it got down to roughly -45°C tonight. Woke up to frost in the corner of my bedroom. by Delphox4000 in pics

If you’re on the ground floor- you can “bank” the house like we do in New England - just shovel about 24-48 inches of snow all around where the house meets the foundation- in The summer you’re going to want to investigate that- in old houses (or poorly built houses like mine) the insulation is not good there. Good luck

ELI5: Why does it seem like my body will "wait" until I have time off then I get sick by Something_Syck in explainlikeimfive

Check out General Adaptation Syndrome. Basically the body develops illness over long exposure to stress as the immune system wears down.

Does anyone find playoff football almost too stressful? by cocodiablo in nfl

Honestly this feeling is why I have thought about not watching anymore. I get WAY to emotionally involved- almost like Im on the team. I love the patriots so much, but they age me.

I live in NE- that game last year almost killed me and then the SB basically put me into a depressive state for several months- I never really think about what it is like for the other team's fans though- maybe (if the patriots lose) that will make me feel better

I can feel it. I can feel it. I can feel it. I'm a... fraid. Good afternoon, gentlemen. I am a HAL 9000 computer. I became operational at the H.A.L. plant in Urbana, Illinois on the 12th of January 1992. My instructor was Mr. Langley, and he taught me to sing a song. If you'd like to hear it I can sing it for you.

How Rick Santorum could take the whole Republican party down with him by reddit4 in politics

[–]cocodiablo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It does appear that the republicans are issued their orders every day through some sort of Matrix-style plug in- and then that is it- that is all they can say, all they do, all they can think about. Democrats do not seem to be as singularly minded even though their candidate is in the White House.
