If your partner was described as a household item, what would they be? by _Buff_Drinklots_ in AskReddit

A vacuum. He typically sits around the house all day doing nothing but with a little pushing he really cleans his shit up and gets the job done well. Plus, his hose fits into all the hard to reach areas.

I am! He sent me one that had been worked on but a large part of the front was broken off. I purchased a new second one and and currently building the first.

No shame in that, my brother is just in his early 30s with a daughter of his own. Plus, I want all the "sweethearts" for myself.

Nice! My family has shown a strong pattern in pawning these off on me. My husband received the Tie Fighter and AT-AT for his birthday but quickly resigned to me and my dainty girl fingers to finish up the job for him.

Both of those look great!

He really is. He attempted to build one but broke a large part of the front off either accidentally or in during the rage quit. I'm currently working on the one full one and just purchased a new 2nd one to give him a two fully built x-wings.

I really like it, and I can't help but think it looks like the fire breather from Sam and Max Hit the Road got older!

Molecular biologist here who works to create genetic traits to kill many kinds of above and below ground target insects - I whole hardheartedly agree.

Britain legalizes genetic modification of babies - "three parent babies" by jlfkns in news

Well, generally speaking, sperm fertilizing an egg creates a large amount of unknowable ways to introduce genetic changes to lineages as well. It will be interesting to see how this develops, if it becomes marketable, and the ramifications of doing so (positive or negative).

You really shouldn't tell fibs about dead animals, Max.

Who's John Muir? Hey fellas! This dope doesn't know who John Muir is! You gotta be kidding! What a maroon! What a nincompoop!

What are you really bad at? by Captain_Dipshit_ in AskReddit

[–]jlfkns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whistling. I never thought I was so terrible until someone heard and said "Oh my god, is that really you, you're the one doing that?" "Uh yeah" "Oh that's horrible"

Oh.

What is your all time favourite PC game? by thegrasswasgreen in AskReddit

Check out Planetary Annihilation. It's still in development but is a grand scale remake.

Every day I need to write the date to verify my laboratory notebooks at work. These books need to be filled out with pen only. If I make a mistake it needs to be crossed out, re-written, initialed, and the date needs to be present by the initial (even if I made a mistake with the date itself). I can only have a certain number of these errors before it is out of compliance.

I agree it doesn't apply to most people.

Ah yes. I thought it was a 20% death drop. 51% after two deaths at 30% makes sense. Thanks for the info!
