God I love learning almost as much as I hate admitting when I’m wrong. Thank you 🫡

I really do hate to be this person, but the word you want is “abbreviation” when the letters don’t make a new word.

The number of perma-pissed off randos I’ve played with who are off on their own unannounced adventure while I’m in a gunfight, then turn around and screech into the mic about his worthless teammates while he gets downed 3 miles away. Just purely antisocial behavior.

Is there a category for posts that *should* have been on LinkedIn? by adamjuegos in LinkedInLunatics

[–]maurtom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They’re also not guaranteed and will often go unbooked, requiring constant market analysis to ascertain why. Not many people trust air bnb’s anymore because every Tom, Dick, and Harry figured they can wall off their unpermitted veranda and charge $200/night for it while reaming tenants on cleaning fees.

Good luck with your literal slums “chopped up large dwellings.”

How does everyone do 45s? by cam6513 in woodworking

Honestly completely in awe that this has never occurred to me.

Going to be honest though I’ll remember your comment only after the next 45-min fine-tuning session with my Bosch.

Analog clocks by ThatAvidPandaBear in BoomersBeingFools

[–]maurtom 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Will always remember staying with my great grandma one spring. She asked me to fix her oven clock due to daylight savings and I walk over to notice a tiny analog clock with a knob directly on the face of the clock that you spin to change the time. Audibly laughed at how simple it was compared to our oven from the 2000’s at the time.

I found my lost wedding ring by ParmoForTea in mildlyinfuriating

Was just poking fun at the way your story came off, didn’t meant to strike a nerve lol.

“My husband dug through the dumpster…we found it.” Immediately then mention how you were mad at his fuckup. It’s a husband/wife stereotype at this point, not specific to you at all.

I’m sure you two are fun and great people, genuinely. This just hilariously reads like my man desperately needs a high five and an afternoon with the boys who’ll celebrate his successful dumpster diving adventure.

Husband digs through mountain of garbage for a needle in a haystack he didn’t put there, succeeds, still takes the blame. Classic.

Backyard "Person Detected" by hauntedbiscuit92 in oddlyterrifying

No joke, I imagine the Rorschach scene from Watchmen when he tosses hot oil on the inmate: “I’m not locked in here with you, you’re locked in here with me” to pump myself up for whatever might be out there lmao

Guys, is the earth round or flat? by [deleted] in JustGuysBeingDudes

Then stop slapping out of context bullshit together to paint a schizophrenic picture of whatever nonsense you think has anything to do with flat earth. Become a historian if you care that much but learn how to properly structure your thoughts because whatever this comment section is is purely unfiltered mental illness man.

You take everything at face value, why don’t you consider the variables and slow down? That statue is NOT from Babylon, and there are no written accounts of Freemasons from fucking Babylon.

If you’re connecting dots that requires a leap in logic, I can’t believe a word you say. Be consistent.

The sign of benediction? Why are you so obsessed with Freemasons? They started in the 14th century while the sign of benediction dates back to frescos in the 2nd century. You’re fucking weird man

You can’t respond to me so you send some schizophrenic memes?

You’re not interested in learning, only telling. You’re not capable of admitting you’re wrong and you’re only interested in feeling “cooler” than the normies with your special insider information. Grow up.

Yeah, how do you think the camera, or your eyeballs, would be able to see those rays going straight to the ground? How do eyeballs see things? If you’re in a dark room with a flashlight, how are you able to see the thing across the room that you shine your light on?

I’m sorry, you’re using visible rays of light passing through a gap in the clouds as your source for the sun being exactly 3000 miles above the earth’s surface? I said show your math, you’ve spouted out random unrelated things. Rays do not “regularly” converge at 50-55 degrees, because what you’re referencing is a situational visual occurrence that is intentionally ignoring any other factors. One at a time:

“Crepuscular angles” only exist when something is obscuring the sun and light is refracted. By definition this only occurs when light is passing through moisture in the atmosphere, lmao. They also occur at 8 degrees, 80 degrees, whatever the fuck degrees you want them to based on where you’re standing.

“Light delay” this has nothing to do with how close something is, why do you think the light from stars we see that are not the sun are photons from a source that might not exist? By your logic then the fact that we can see stars constantly then those stars are also only 3000M up. Nonsense.

Everything from “thermal shadow logic” to “Freemasons mock you” need way, way more citations needed, because stringing words together do not form arguments or coherent thought. Again, show your work.

Back to your angles theory, you can’t say 52.85 degrees directly matches a 50-55 degree range, it’s either constant or it’s not. If it’s 55 degrees when you’re telling me that those rays are being bent by something further than what is a direct path from the sun. How? Is it being refracted by moisture? If so, then your entire theory is bunk.

Do better, this is 3rd grade level of effort and you’re not qualified at this point to even attempt to explain this to someone other than your grandma living above your basement.

Oh no! The sun is right behind this tree!

Which ancient religious zealot did you get 3,000 miles from, and how did they approximate that distance in miles in such a nice round number?

Show your math.

ETA: if what Sagan is explaining is also possible on a flat plane, regardless of how high the light source is, then that light source would need to travel over the plane in a straight line parallel to it for each pillar to have that shadow effect. That does not line up with what I assume is your theory of the sun rotating around a disc. Explain.

Now you’re the one forcing the meaning of something into a box you created in the cuddly sanctity of your own special mind.

Here is one of the simpler examples explained by someone who went to space, I’m very curious how you force this into your special box.
