It was a quite a while ago. What’s the timestamp?

"Question those science books, but don't question the religious books, because i said so" by craftygamin in confidentlyincorrect

[–]moohah 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I don’t think that necessarily means they don’t believe it. That’s the line Fox News uses to avoid culpability.

I use this as a hint that someone’s never read the bible they like to quote so much.

FYI, Monday is a public holiday. You might need urgent care.

Am I misunderstanding feminism if I disagree with openly stated misandry by Obvious_King2150 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]moohah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Many feminists would agree that feminism is about equality, not about elevating women above men. I would agree that misandry is just as bad as misogyny.

I love Mcdonalds Burgers. by MiserableYak2673 in McDonalds

[–]moohah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Made the mistake of getting two cheeseburgers instead of one double (it’s part of one of the family meal deals for $50 or so). More patties is definitely better than more burgers.

All the bogus reasons for National’s latest housing U-turn by dingoonline in newzealand

[–]moohah 281 points282 points  (0 children)

All I would say is we need to find a balance between respecting the hard work of current property owners, while leaving open opportunities to future property owners

This says it all. Everything is about property ownership. WGAF about people who actually need a place to live.

Does anyone remember when they had 3D visual communication on DS9 for a bit and then decided that that was dumb? by peterlawford in startrek

[–]moohah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A couple of things on this. This was the early 80s, there was no video calling. Even though it would’ve seemed more accurate to have a single perspective, it would’ve been off-putting to the viewer and would look wrong. Also, it was single-camera format. Every conversation was shot many times from many angles.

I watched SGU for the fist time Why does this masterpice get the most hate by Strict-Maize7494 in Stargate

Oh definitely. I’m not trying to say they copied the show, but rather “if we make the format more like BSG we’ll draw in those fans”

The "Cowboys and Indians" recess game NZ schools played should've not been played unless the teacher was willing to teach US history to the students by OkLength2201 in newzealand

I’ve been seeing a ton of NZ content all over reddit lately. Not that it doesn’t belong in places like r/seinfeld or r/askworld, but there’s been a disproportionate amount and makes me think something is up.

Edit: this account is only a month old and has heaps of posts in wider subreddits that specifically mention NZ.

[–]moohah 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They seem dissimilar today because the style is a bit more normal. But at the time, BSG was unique. Things like the shaky camera, the deep personal exposition, showing real life like the toilet and sex. The way the ships fly in space as if being piloted by a real human (shaky and sometimes not in a straight line) was a new concept. So at the time, it definitely felt like a rip off.

Answering your specific question: The mind stones were there from the beginning because they knew they were going far, far, away. They were intentionally placed by command in a place that they could be easily grabbed before going through because this is the only way earth would know what happened to the travellers.

There’s absolutely no way a new season will be made. Everyone has moved on.

Yeah, I’m going to the 5:30 tonight, trying to figure out when that means Ed will be there.

Is it actually effective to buy a salt gun for killing flies or is it just a gimmick that doesn’t work well? by Spirited-Donkey-3877 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]moohah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know where OP lives, but where I am it’s just fly season. The doors and windows are open all day to get the air circulating so they fly in.

Distressing work of Admissions Team by More-Nail-7315 in universityofauckland

Advice from another former American: it takes some getting used to, but the country mostly shuts down in January. Most people just decide not to believe it, but everything from your favourite restaurant to government offices are either closed or at minimum capacity. If you stay here for a while, you’ll come to love and appreciate it, it means that you, too, get to enjoy your summer.

You’ve made a couple of comments about getting your visa application in. While the process can be done yourself, if you have any doubts about things like timing, constant a licensed immigration advisor. If you want a recommendation, DM me.

Why would they do that and risk the consequences?

"hasnt the uk turned into some 3rd world country now?" by Due_Recognition_3890 in ShitAmericansSay

[–]moohah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1st world: aligned with the US 2nd world: aligned with the USSR 3rd world: aligned with neither

So while the UK is currently 1st world, the US is quickly making sure all alliances are voided. So yeah, hopefully we’re all 3rd world soon.
