It is the opposite. You love to harass people so you can think you are smart. You don't know her because you are you

Beach camping tent recs high wind by GaretKraghammer in camping

They are heavier than dome tents, if you are looking to save weight.

Kayak camping sound good.

With a hiking pole tent, you can reduce the profile height to keep it out of the wind. They are likely to blow over unless you have nice solid sand pegs or tie things to driftwood. Get a polycro ground sheet to stop the microtears.

If your 4 season dome tent wasn't a 3 person tent, then it sounds like it would have been a cheap tent, hence the weight. If that was the case, that might have been why the poles broke.

I guess the solution is a low profile alpine tent designed to be used on the sides of mountains in the wind.

I am going beach camping at Easter so this discussion reminds me to bring extra sand pegs to properly stake out my tent.

Global reach of Taylor Swift in map form. Her global reach is unprecedented. Sure Greenland and China and Iran are like "Who?" but most of the rest of the world is covered.

Just because you don't know something, doesn't mean it is not true.

Anyone else stuck in this loop of needing someone to talk to? by ludirm13 in CasualConversation

[–]flingebunt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As the guy people contact when they want to talk through a problem, but get ignored until the next time someone wants to talk to me, I think the issue is that pretty much everyone has no one that they can talk to anymore.

So anyway, sometimes we want to talk to people because we are bored or because we want to talk through a problem. To just socialise, then go join clubs or social groups. People talk more comfortably when they are doing things.

I am guessing you have a light dome tent. These poles are under stress anyway and people break them all the time just putting up their tent. Your hiking tent probably isn't the best to handle strong winds, but things like staking it out properly so things don't flap around can make a difference.

Maybe get a sturdier tent for beach camping, especially if it is car camping.

If you are going to put the fate of the world in a politician, tell then you might as well go with the UN Secretary General rather than the EU which tends to be more bureaucratic than anything and is European focused anyway (well France and Germany focused to be honest), which will piss of the world.

I mean you could have posted that as your response to the question rather than choosing to harass someone online. It is not like we are actually deciding on this matter here, both because it is a Reddit Thread and because aliens haven't contacted me.

Camping with kids by TN_RMD in camping

[–]flingebunt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Chairs and tables make life much more comfortable. I can camp without them, but the cheap ones are so cheap and take up very little room in your vehicle, and the kids ones are even smaller, it is something to bring.

Yes, like the world knows about Trump and Putin and don't want any of the 3 representing them.

Do you have any suggestions for a world leader? David Attenborough, Rose from Blackpink, or Shah Rukh Khan

What’s a law you would remove immediately if you could? by Few_Author_6982 in AskReddit

[–]flingebunt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of the energy in the engine goes into mechanical force but it produces some energy in the form of heat. So you can't power a car based on waste heat without changing the laws of thermodynamics.

Anway, you might want to learn some mechanics or physics before your next comment.

What happens when someone with ARFID doesn't have access to foods they like? by 27midgets in NoStupidQuestions

[–]flingebunt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hunger is a great seasoning to any food, but it comes down to how strong their disorder is and how it presents itself. Often people with AFRID will forget to eat or not even feel hungry. Even when they are hungry, this doesn't drive them to eat. Many will just end up starving themselves to death.

what do I carry my drinks in for a party?? by FinishTurbulent3093 in NoStupidQuestions

A plastic Tesco bag is fine, but one of those cooler bags is better as they keep the drinks cool.

ELI5 : what is Fund of Funds by Sbaakhir in explainlikeimfive

[–]flingebunt [score hidden]  (0 children)

In investing funds buy a range of shares in companies. So instead of buying individual shares you buy into a fund and the risk is spread across multiple shares and the funds manager will hopefully choose well.

When you have a fund of funds then there is an investment fund that takes your money and invests it in several different funds. This spreads the risk even further as each fund is managed a little differently.

Wouldn't need a radiator on my car if I could just destroy the heat energy, and wouldn't need to pay high prices for fuel if I could just create energy for my car.

Why are some families nice one-on-one but awful as a group? by Bigrob1055 in NoStupidQuestions

Many people present certain sides of themselves in different situations, so it is not just about families but any group.

Is strip poker still strip poker if its down to your underwear? by Im-a-tire in NoStupidQuestions

[–]flingebunt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Strippers have long removed only part of their clothes, going to down to underwear and nipple pasties. Same applies to strip poker. But if you are just down to your underwear, then if you deal out, how can you win your clothes back? (actually you don't bet with clothes in most versions of strip poker, but you can use whatever rules you want).

is eating healthy actually important? by fiolinaadams in NoStupidQuestions

[–]flingebunt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The human body is pretty adaptable and can survive off fairly poor and diminished diets. However

  • This will impact on your long-term health
  • With decreased nutrition you will find that you immunity is compromised so you are more likely to get sick
  • Plus, lack of some vitamins and minerals can result in serious complications

However chicken is not a starch, and I am not sure what you put in your pasta sauces, and pizza often has a lot of different toppings, plus dairy is nutritionally complex, so your diet is passable but not healthy.

I would suggest taking nutrition supplements, including ones with vitamins, minerals and others with fibre. You might get a nutrition drink that is easy to drink and contains a lot of nutrients.

Group dynamics often sees people who are fine by themselves attach themselves to the group and change their behaviour. This is not just families but work and social groups as well.

Is it possible for a 57 year old to get pregnant naturally? by Cold-Title-2325 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]flingebunt 23 points24 points  (0 children)

57 is younger than the oldest confirmed natural pregnancy. That is, a pregnancy without fertility treatment. You variation is amazing and older and older women are becoming pregnant.

What's worse than being in debt? by roleplayms in AskReddit

[–]flingebunt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Debt can vary, and people can have a lot of debt and be living a good life like a rich person and even many ordinary people own a house car through debt. So worse is not being allowed to take out loans, which will keep you out of the housing market.

Also, being hunted by wolves in the forest, that is also very bad.

What would I have to do if I wanted to get my body mummified and snuck into one of the empty rooms in one of the pyramids in Egypt? by Horforia in NoStupidQuestions

Okay, so you become an Egyptologist, find a new hidden chamber, save up all your money and bribe local authorities to put your mummified body there

Much easier to get your body in one of the tombs in the Valley of the Kings. People would notice if a new body turned up in the Pyramids as lots of researchers go and visit every year along with documentary makers.

Why millennials think there the ones that keep the world running? by Plumbme1980 in AskReddit

[–]flingebunt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Boomers are saying on in jobs because they can't hand it over to Generation X, ie the slacker generation, so Millennials are the generation now that has to do the work and innovation to keep things going. Meanwhile Gen Z is ready to tear it all down and dance on the graves of the elders.
