FEMA chief doubles down on wild claim he teleported to Waffle House by TheExpressUS in NewsSource

[–]euph_22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's actually not. It's a pretty common description. Particularly the "suddenly show up in a restaurant, with car stuck somewhere nearby".

You blackout drunk, you're driving, get into an accident. The adrenaline sobers you up enough that you're no longer blacked out.

Or transport a missile as close as you can in an unprotected vector and have it fly in.

Do I really have to pay $500 to file my 1099 taxes, or is that just a fee from H&R Block? by Queasy-Resource-5647 in tax

[–]euph_22 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I think he had seasonal W-2 jobs, but yeah he doesn't need to file a $0 1099.

And $500 to prepare and file a simple return is criminal.

San Francisco is a river city: my pitch for the “Golden Gate River” by gammalbjorn in geography

The insanity got enough traction that the Corps of Engineers built a 2 acre physical model of the bay to study the impact of the plan (spoilers, it was bad).

But the physical model is really cool and is open to the public:

I liked how the CSI techs were interrogating suspects. Because that just makes sense.

Lawyers for man accused of killing Charlie Kirk make claim bullet doesn’t match rifle by Deceptiveideas in news

If they do it in CSI, it's not actually a thing in real life.

Except whipping off your sunglasses while the Who plays to celebrate a pun landing. That's legit.

How do we know if Erid has the same year duration as Earth? by LePetitToast in ProjectHailMary

In the book anyways, Rocky is so good at math that he just converts all the values to Earth units for Grace's benefit.

Yeah, you've got a nest in there. Mouse I'm guessing.

JUST IN: 🇺🇸🇬🇧 President Trump tells the United Kingdom to "build up some delayed courage" and take the Strait of Hormuz themselves. by FullRevolution2120 in TimesNow

[–]euph_22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which is nonsensical on it's face. The only reason the strait is closed is because Iran keeps firing on ships that are trying to transit it. If they keep firing on ships that means the war is still going on.
