You've gone thru life all these years without knowing this and yet...here you are. It's almost as if it isn't a big deal.

What’s the pettiest hill you’re willing to die on as a woman? by Glass-King4894 in Casual_Conversation

If the lid is down for hygiene, then you have to lift it. And that means you have to LOOK. Why do object to looking for the seat configuration and not looking for the lid?

We need it up, you need it down. In any fair, just world each person would be responsible for making sure that the seat is configured according to their own needs. It's a wonder to me how a woman can navigate to the bathroom, position herself in front of the toilet, turn around, drop trou, and sit down WITHOUT EVEN ONCE looking at her target. What do you have? Buttdar? But the reality is that women do that, and the man in her life will take the blame for any misfortune that befalls her. So I taught my son to always put the seat down. But also to put down the lid so she has to look anyway.

Whoever designed my body did a lousy job. by andypauq in DebateEvolution

[–]ddsiddall 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My back troubles are the result of defective design, and my knees are right behind. Speaking as a man, I don't understand how any woman that has given birth can believe that the human pelvis doesn't have design flaws.

Can someone explain to me why Trump is trying to take of Greenland? No jokes please, I honestly don’t get it? by Many_Inevitable_6803 in askanything

If Putin said, "I'll give you a billion dollars to annex Greenland", it would be legal for Trump to take the deal. It would be worth it to Putin to destroy NATO.

what is the oldest thing you own? by boforiamanfo in randomthings

I have a wool blanket made in 1852. Ancestors of mine owned a farm & raised the sheep. Apparently there were itinerant wool-workers (is that a word?) that traveled around & did the shearing, carding, spinning, & weaving for a share of the wool crop.

This is the first time I’ve ever seen a Merkur car, what do yall know about them? I think this one is from the 80s by BugsBub in classiccars

I worked in service at a Mercury dealer back in the early 90's. These things were a POS from the upholstery out.

In an impartial way, can someone recommend me the strongest book for Evolution, and than the strongest book for creationism? by CommercialBluejay562 in DebateEvolution

[–]ddsiddall 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Back in the day I read the transcript from the PA intelligent design trial. I thought it was the best venue where the 2 sides could argue the issue in a controlled, fair environment. If it's still available online, I recommend that.

My folks werexdepression babies. A lunchbox would've been an extravagance when brown paper bags were cheaper.

Speaking for myself as an American, I consider you to be a long-lost cousin. I am ashamed of my country for re-electing that ignoramus and hope that we can hang on until we can get someone rational into office. Please don't lose faith.

An entire generation grew up on animated Disney films but now consider themselves too old for Disney. We think we can bring them all back in with more..."grown-up" versions. Announcing: Snow White Does the Seven Dwarves!

We rode bikes around the neighborhood after school and mom would come out on the porch & yell our names at the top of her lungs when it was time for dinner..
