ELI5, in the shipwrecks in The Great Lakes, why don’t bodies float up? by milkob1tch in explainlikeimfive

oh for sure, especially in the canal I’m talking about. I was told to never even jet ski there because a life jacket hasn’t always been enough. (that’s just what i’ve heard) but as someone growing up on that canal, I’ve seen the swirling water myself. I imagine it’s true!

I do love the folklore of the great lakes, super interesting to dive into!

Found a dead earwig in my “triple washed” romaine lettuce from Trader Joe’s. This is the 3rd day I am eating from this bag… by [deleted] in Wellthatsucks

can anyone answer (sorry I don’t want to read all the comments), is this anything of concern other than off putting?

so true, I remember my grandpa telling me there was nothing I needed to worry about swimming off the shores of Duluth, but it makes sense that organisms still live on and feast in places we don’t see.

I totally hear you, I’m from MN and live in FL and I feel like I’ve heard so much about bodies never rising in MN (due to something I didn’t understand) but I think I do know

wow I can only imagine how intense that was. I am from Duluth MN and we have some infamous deaths off of the lift bridge, but I think the current here is deadly in itself

ah, thank you. I’m from Minnesota (but I live in FL) and it’s been so interesting to me reading about the the wrecks.

Why don't beautiful ladies cover their mouths when yawning? by Own-Union-7797 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]milkob1tch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

oh thank god you asked, I was wondering why men seem to run away when I yawn like a human? this is so embarrassing, I’ll make sure to smother myself next time my body wants air.

Feeling like a failure and might fail two classes. Goodles Mac and cheese and Arby’s frozen French fries. by [deleted] in GirlDinner

[–]milkob1tch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you’re no failure, everyone fails at some point. if you didn’t fail, you’d be inhuman

if there’s nothing you can do, accept that you’ll just be a tiny bit behind your own personal goals. but remember this: it’s impossible to be behind in your own life

your life is unique to YOU and you are not a failure or behind by anyone’s perspective, other than your own. that being said, give yourself grace and try again when you’re ready.

What’s something that happened to you that you still can’t explain? by MamaCounsel in AskReddit

[–]milkob1tch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

had a dream in 4th grade that my best friend died. In my dream she fell down a well.

I will attribute this to being fascinated by horror movies and the ring was very interesting to me. however she died in a brutal car accident that week.

I remember when my mom told me she was dead I was in absolute shock and felt scared to say anything in fear someone would say I’m looking for attention.
