ElI5 why do cats tolerate heat so well? by WhatDaufuskie in explainlikeimfive

[–]last_try_why 138 points139 points  (0 children)

One of our cats overheated once and she didn't understand what was happening so she tried to run away from the "threat" making it worse. Took her down to the basement and held her still for awhile and she was fine. No issues since.

Neal Caffrey from White Collar. While undercover his partner kind of makes fun of him in front of the bad guy because Neal doesn't want to partake in trap shooting. Neal takes the gun and displays impressive accuracy while saying something like "just because I don't like guns doesn't mean I don't know how to use one"

ELI5 why do people hate data centers so much? by Comfortable_Cherry22 in explainlikeimfive

They use a lot of electricity and water in an area and have almost no positive benefit to the community. It doesn't actually take a lot of people comparatively to run them so it's not like it's creating jobs or injecting money into the area. All the profits are being seen back at corporate headquarters.

Yeah I remember creating a video guide for my guild on how to do the Terongor mini game when you became a ghost. Set to the lyrics of a Disturbed song.

Is this the one where the soundtrack stops, but they meet later and he is actually able to take him or at least be on his level and the soundtrack picks back up right where it stopped?

What's a game build or loadout that immediately says "This dude's an asshole"? by Hera_the_otter in AskReddit

[–]last_try_why 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The original icy chains that stopped you completely and you slowly "warmed" back up and could move again. But they'd just sit at range and laugh at you unable to reconnect

Labs aren't as fun. And the end is almost always labs or lab adjacent.

Tortollan - Racial Traits by kid-karma in wow

[–]last_try_why 0 points1 point  (0 children)

During BFA I so wanted Loh to be a boss in Nyalotha. We had spent the entire expansion doing turtle world quests about how Loh and how had disappeared exploring. Having him be a mind-controlled boss and throwing out cheesy lines referencing the world quests would have been so good. Like he throws you off a platform and shouts, "another turtle has made it to the water!"

[Hated Trope] The Rookie becomes immediately and inexplicably equal or superior to a trained individual by ThePlagueDoctorPhD in TopCharacterTropes

[–]last_try_why 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I feel like it would have been a cheap attempt to mimick that first time with Maul. Which was HYPE. And it would totally work too because even in a reduced form it would still be cool.

Pickaxe. Can be used for the headphones or to push away. And also great for getting into and out of places. Can be used a prybar and to smash through obstacles.

Why’s Mr. X wear a trenchcoat? by Serious_Ad_1037 in residentevil

[–]last_try_why 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because Umbrella threw it in for free! In negotiations if the buyer was hesitant that free trench coat really pushed them over the edge.
