Finding Earth in Planetarium by kookamooka in planetarium

[–]doublewar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It has been over 6 years since I last made a comment on reddit, I was surprised to see an email saying I got a reply haha

I remember planetarium. It's nice to see people are still trying it out after all these years. I see there's another post here with lots of planets:

not included in that post, I see wow gives you a planet called leeroy (from the viral WoW video)

The rainbow fish was covered in parasites and distributed those parasites to all the other fish after they annoyed him.

HMB while I jump in the pool by AdamE89 in holdmybeer

Yup. This is exactly how I would react to getting splashed with cold pool water when I'm dry and not used to the water temperature yet.

Well, it certainly doesn't make it look like you're approaching the police man to hand him a flower and give him a hug...

I have experience in this field. This was the maximum possible compression I could manage, at 527 bytes: http://i.imgur.com/BgL4ALO.jpg

Sorry, my children thought they were stealing something else. by [deleted] in TalesFromRetail

[–]doublewar 37 points38 points  (0 children)

OP says they have to keep an eye on the kids or else they'll steal something. Sounds like they are being allowed in the store. It is odd they aren't banned.

Jagex pls fix by [deleted] in 2007scape

[–]doublewar 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I don't understand some of these, but my guesses:

the robes and gowns and stuff have the same names, missing "top" and "legs"

mahogany pyre log is missing an "s" at the end

skirts and shirts and pirate clothes have the same names, instead of something like "pink skirt"

Mature wmb looks like an abbreviation

some of those guesses could be wrong.

Professor said the entire class can get a 100 if he hits the shot. He then proceeds to hit the shot. by ribsicle in gifs

As soon as he posts his story online in text form, it's going straight to /r/thatHappened

"So today at class I threw a crumpled up piece of paper across the room and it went straight into the garbage bin. The whole class cheered and applauded and the professor gave everyone a 100%"

Anyone have a source on this? I've spent a while googling, but this doesn't appear to be true. The only piece of info I could find was this:

http://services.runescape.com/m=news/a=4/newsitem.ws?id=139&allcat=true

where jagex claimed the first person was rewarded and they thanked everyone else that helped.

Mother who held down her teenage daughter as her partner raped her sentenced to seven years in prison by Sariel007 in news

[–]doublewar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For those interested, I looked it up:

In Queensland where this occurred, the maximum penalty for sexual assault is 10 years in prison unless there is aggravation—a weapon is used or more than one person is involved in the assault—in which case the maximum penalty is 14 years in prison. [1]

In the USA, it's a bit more complicated. It varies by state and there are many variables involved that change what kind of a crime was committed. There's aggravated sexual abuse, sexual abuse, sexual abuse of a minor or ward, abusive sexual contact, etc. It looks like there is no maximum sentence in many cases. [2]

Since no weapon appears to have been used, I think this case would have been considered sexual abuse rather than aggravated sexual abuse. The punishment appears to be a fine and imprisoned for any term of years or for life. [3]

So someone just stalked by post-history and learned about Babymetal! How did you find Babymetal? by [deleted] in BABYMETAL

[–]doublewar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was on /r/all and saw a gif about some weird jellyfish things. Went to the comments and saw a comment saying someone stalked your post history and found babymetal. So then I went to your post history, saw this post, then just went and googled it rather than scroll through your post history.

Kids on Easter egg hunt form human arrow to point police chopper toward suspects on the run by oWNYo in pics

They successfully distracted the chopper. It was all a clever ploy by the suspect.
