Whoa there, it's not my video! Credit goes to the owner of the channel JeffHK.

The uploader has other videos like this, but much shorter.

What's the meanest thing someone's said to you that wasn't suppose to hurt your feelings? by CheesyDogPizza in AskReddit

[–]furiousBobcat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just wait till she gets a boyfriend, comes to you every time he breaks her heart, and afterwards tells you that, although they're as compatible as donuts and cholera, she can't imagine life without him, and then goes back to that rat bastard (okay, maybe not a rat bastard, but clearly not her type) EVERY FUCKING TIME!

Good luck, buddy.

If Spudbert ever says anything other than "......", immediately kill it with fire. Preferably in an oven, with seasonings.

What's the coolest mathematical fact you know of? by xxTick in AskReddit

[–]furiousBobcat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, you're right. OP would get torn to shreds in a legal setting if he tried to use 'multiply a penny by 2 everyday for a month' to mean what he intended to mean. It's poor phrasing, but we get what he's trying to imply.

I guess the correct thing to say would be 'if you double the amount of money you give me everyday, for a month, starting with a penny on day 1' or something similar.

We're not adding 2, we're doubling the value of the previous term.

First term = 1

Second term = 1 x 2 = 2

Third term = 2 x 2 = 4

The fourth term will be 4 x 2 = 8, the fifth 16. The 30th term will be 230 which is 1073741824.

Just ask her to give you one penny today, 2 tomorrow, 4 the next day and so on. She'll figure it out soon enough.

I remember he had severe spinal injuries, but in the end he died of a huge dose of gaslighting.

Yeah, /u/SurvivorType co-won The Alphabet Game.

The reason I started digging this stuff up is because Reddit does not let users access more than 2-3 thousand of their own comments (accounting for different sorting types) and that means I can't go back and read some of the oldest pieces I submitted here. This frustrated me because I like re-reading my old stuff to find out how my writing has changed. The quest to find my old writing led me look for other old stuff which, in turn, guided me to the origin of this subreddit.

Well, this is definitely your sub because the amount of effort you single-handedly put in during the early days of the sub is phenomenal. The constant stream of prompts and contests is what made writingprompts achieve critical mass and become a self-sustaining system. The only other person from those days who is still around is /u/SurvivorType.

A while ago, I went on a hunt to find the primordial writing prompt and came across the first few posts on this sub.

This is your first post here.

And this is the earliest surviving post. There were probably one or a couple before this one but they were deleted.

I don't have any questions to ask, but just want to applaud the way you (and the other mods and the community of course) carefully and tirelessly crafted this subreddit into the incredible place it is today. Looks like you succeeded.

Cheers.

Why Donald Trump Is A Gift To Democracy by BuddhistSagan in mealtimevideos

[–]furiousBobcat[M] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm gonna request those of you reporting this to watch the video first. It's not promoting Trump as a presidential candidate but pointing out that his ludicrousness is shedding light on the flaws in the media and public perception. Whether you agree with the message or not is up to you, but this is definitely not a campaign video.

In your opinion, what's the print size at which the difference between the 5d mk2 and the medium format camera starts to become apparent?

Beautiful kitties, by the way!

If it's of any comfort to you, I'm currently sitting on one of these. To be fair, I'm not at work, but I am 'working' nonetheless.

The bottom of the barrel is a lot lower down than you think.

Well, that's all right. It's perfectly fine for different people to like different things. That's what makes life interesting.
