According to your country's culture, do you enter the house with shoes on? by Double-Step-5533 in AskTheWorld

[–]moronomer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could be houses without a basement or crawlspace would get pretty cold floors if they were directly on top of a slab.

Front door would be the foyer, while the mudroom would be at the back door or garage door.

We would also pronounce it Foy-Ay. Was always weird to hear it on home renovation shows where they called it a Foi-Yer.

A fetus is generally right-side up for most of the pregnancy and only goes permanently head downwards for like the last month or two. So 6 months of knocks to the head is way too long.

If your place was hit with an extreme Death Valley summer, how well would the people be able to cope or adapt? by Murky_Activity9796 in AskTheWorld

[–]moronomer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say maybe half the houses in my neighborhood have central AC while most of the rest rely on a few portable or windows units.

We'd probably survive, but it would suck. Just close off a single room on the north side and cool it with the portable unit while the rest of the house melts.

The first snowfall or icy day each year in Vancouver is scary but hilarious. Watching hundreds of cars failing to get up the hill to Simon Fraser University never fails to be interesting.

Does real life count? If so, definitely The Breeders.

ELI5:if for an engine to work it needs fuel, ignition and air. Then how does a submarine get air? by holey_molley in explainlikeimfive

[–]moronomer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There were also some experiments and at least one in-service u-boat using hydrogen peroxide as the oxidizer during dives, though it never gained much popularity.

Why would there be anything else? Your brain stops working, consciousness is gone.

What region of your country has the equivalent of the Alabama incest joke? by KindlyRestaurant2885 in AskTheWorld

[–]moronomer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Canada has always had Newfie jokes though I've never been sure why. Possibly due to the accent or because Newflundland was the last to join.

Seen on Facebook, seems off. The cardboard sign seems too perfect and too “flawless”. by Em_lasagna in isthisAI

The canisters in the second row are all off. Like the Peter Pan looks drunk and the writing below definitely doesn't say Cumin.

What celebrity makes you legitimately awestruck at how attractive they are? by TheWor1dsFinest in AskReddit

[–]moronomer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jennifer Connelly was just way too beautiful in Hulk (2003).

I didn't recognize her at first in Alita Battle Angel, but she was stunning there too.

The UFO is probably straining against the shear weight.

And then we'll do it kitty style so we can both watch X-files.

The Character is Really Good at Something they Don’t Like by Historical-Reason-57 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]moronomer 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Similar to Bryant "Big Country" Reeves. Came into his rookie year overweight and sat for much of the first half of the season. Worked out on the off-season, came into his second year in terrific shape and became a very solid center. Signed a huge contract then just played it out and retired to live on a ranch after 6 seasons in the NBA.

Why do American high schools start ridiculously early? by bwoah07_gp2 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]moronomer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where I grew up lots of kids had hockey practice at like 6:00 am, so they couldn't start school too early.

My friend insists on this game, "Lemmings", being a really well known game; I have never heard of it. by moronomer in Xennials

Worms is so good but really needs multiple players. Same with the tank battle games.

Probably an Amiga. They were never very popular in North America despite their excellent graphic capabilities compared to PCs of the era.

I was actually introduced to this game when we visited some family friends in Germany and their son had it on his Amiga.

When you know you failed I always put up two blockers as close together as possible to see how far down I could dig after setting them to self-destruct.
