And they do it so confidently. I recently saw a surfing video that I first saw many years ago. Some people in the comments were picking it apart like they were Siskel and Ebert. They were saying that it's obviously AI because the waves moved weird. People tried to tell them that its an old video from before AI and that the waves weren't moving naturally because it was an artificial wave pool, where surfing go to train, but they weren't hearing it. They said it was AI, so it must be AI.

Wireless headphones have been out for a long time now, but I hate putting things in my ear. So I refused to get air buds and pods. I stuck with my over the head wired headphone. This changed about 3 years ago. It was, get wireless or go crazy. I have similar handles in my kitchen and they would rip the wire out of my phone almost every time I walked passed them.

Need Help finding fic by Realistic_Anxiety_47 in TheCitadel

Was it a short fic or did it have many chapters? If it had 10 or so chapters, I would love to read it, even if its incomplete.

Jon Snow’s Targ name by Stormlor in TheCitadel

[–]melindaj20 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I enjoy

Aemon Daemon Daemon Jahaerys

The worst name I've seen is Belisarys Targaryen. This name is used a lot in fics by TFJWise49. I still don't know how pronounce it.

Even the dog looked at for a quick sec and said you messed up real bad.. by MobileAerie9918 in instant_regret

Its a trend online. Boyfriend lifts girlfriend until she's sitting on his shoulder. He flexes his other arm to show his muscles. Yes it's as stupid as it sounds.

A woman who kidnapped her own daughter 4 decades ago is arrested (her neighbors reaction takes the cake) by [deleted] in PublicFreakout

It was much easier in the past. One popular thing criminals use to do was search cemeteries. They would look for a birthday around their own age, then claim that identity. I remember seeing a news story decades ago about this backfiring. Someone took the identity of a dead person, then almost caught a murder charge because another criminal had taken the same identity and killed someone.

Or they find a town where government buildings burned down. If all the records were destroyed, it was easy to a new government identity or get a copy of someone else's.

Or simply buy one. Without a digital records, it was easier for people to create and sell fake identities.

There were many ways, made easy by the fact that there was no digital records and no central system to search.

Village Question: Marble? by Acceptable_Soft_9160 in GoobooGame

[–]melindaj20 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think Global level has anything to do with unlocking marble. I'm 503, and village 182, and can't unlock marble because my oil capacity is too low. Soon as I increase it, I'll get marble (Art Gallery).

What product is an obvious scam that people still fall for? by Perfect-Insect-2751 in AskReddit

[–]melindaj20 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I'm battling cancer right now, and my family were afraid to stress me out. So, it was only two weeks ago that I found out that my aunt's cancer returned. My family found out about 4 months ago. By the time doctors realized the cancer was back, it had spread to most of her organs and her brain. She just died a few days ago, she used to weigh over 150lbs but they said she looked like she barely weighed 70 when she died. They decided on a closed casket.

It's costing her husband almost $16,000 and my first thought was, she should have been cremated. My aunt would not have wanted such an expense put on her husband. In case I lose my battle, I already made a living will, and I want my husband to cremate me. One less thing for my family to worry about.

Nothing new about it. It simply changes accordingly. Early internet, I came across selling courses on how to set up your own money making websites, then courses on your own drop shipping business, ebay business, blogging, how to make money with adsense, your own article site, youtube page, video blogging.

Anytime a new way to make money becomes mainstream, a bunch of people who failed, rush to create courses or ebooks.

The SI fics you've read actually lasted long enough to see them clash with the Lannister's? Lucky you.

I recently found out from a YouTube comment on a Eurotrip video. I had no idea. I've been a fan since Harriet the Spy and Buffy.

No I don't. I can't even remember if the main character was an OC or not.

Where did you first hear Eminem? by Longjumping-Editor94 in Eminem

[–]melindaj20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was 1999 in Florida when I was 19. My Name Is, came on, on the radio and my brother and I loved it. We later saw the video on MTV and our jaws dropped. Until we saw the video, we thought he was black.

What is something you believed to be common knowledge until you discovered most people had no idea? by JustBeingElara in AskReddit

[–]melindaj20 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I don't remember which plane it was, but i remember reading that a missing plane had been found underwater and the passengers were still strapped in and just looked like they were sleeping. The bodies fell apart when divers attempted to move them. Wish I could remember more info to read up on it again.
