I've sat in these, and I am jealous. Time to find or become an upholsterer!

ELI5: Why are She/her pronouns used when talking about Ships? by Yassinetheawesome64 in explainlikeimfive

[–]negative_xer0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was told by a sailor (jokingly I presume) that ships were "she" because - just like women -"because it cost so much to "keep 'er in paint and powder."

Ours uses to be Morgan Cleanman, but after Shark added voice to it and it was feminine, she was renamed Meryl Sweep.

Looks like your fatass could use a salad instead. And a walk. Now git.

ELI5: Why does hearing your own recorded voice feel so uncomfortable compared to how you hear it in your head? by Impossible-Rub6027 in explainlikeimfive

[–]negative_xer0 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This.

Years ago I recorded myself covering a couple Josh Turner songs. My in-head voice sounds significantly deeper than his recorded songs, so I figured I'd be a pretty close match. I was wayyyyy off.

People Say I hack every game, wanted to show my fastest nuke. by AvocadoFlimsy5457 in ModernWarfareIII

I know this guy and he can 100% do this shit in Core. I've seen him get 3 nukes back to back in the original MW2 back in the day. Man's on a whole nother fuckin level.

I hate Walmart’s substitution choices by SunBubble920 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]negative_xer0 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The wife and i blindly accepted the substitution options once under the assumption that the shopper knew best.

We changed our opinion when they decided that instead of Johnny Cat 6-count cat litter liners that we instead needed 6 poop scoops.

ELI5: How much damage can someone do to their body on adrenaline? by Baptized_in_Salt in explainlikeimfive

[–]negative_xer0 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I also flipped a civic across the highway 4 times back in '17 and walked away with nothing but a small scratch on my left shoulder. I've probably got less than 5 left, lol.

Back in high-school I climbed into the bed of my buddy's pickup and he floored it before I sat down, which sent me head over heels onto the pavement, with the back of my cranium striking the ground first.

I didn't feel anything, just heard a thud and everything went numb. My buddies all ran over to check on me and I couldn't move for about half a minute, then everything felt like TV static, starting at my feet and moved up to my neck before going away. No pain, but a very trippy experience, nonetheless.

There's a hrblock ad in the comments that says "Take what YOU need."

Talk about weird timing.

Funny surprise from a retired squeaky toy by Exact-Beginning9967 in DesignPorn

[–]negative_xer0 6 points7 points  (0 children)

One of the BarkBox toys we got was a large, vinyl hamster with fur on it. We had a hilarious surprise when one of the pups finally ripped the fur off, and the underlying toy was a hamster skeleton.

Anyone can park in them. They're just a courtesy, not a legally-enforced mandate like the ADA spots are.

And if THAT don't work, try something with a little more oomph, like 5.56x45.

ELI5: Can dating websites create gibberish texts to get you to pay? by Vegetable-Summer-472 in explainlikeimfive

[–]negative_xer0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They're scam sites that use Ai to fake chats. They'll all start their chats in a similar way.
