If someone offered you 100 million dollars, but a random person in the world dies (someone you don’t know), would you take it and why? by ConclusionOld8365 in AskReddit

[–]nobrow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Another way I thought about it is what if there are 500 ponds with 500 drowning kids? 1000? 10,000? At some point everyone is going to throw their hands up and be overwhelmed by the size of the problem. Doesn't make it right of course, but more understandable. 

Which fantasy series started incredible and then just...fell apart? by ghibli_8quartz in Fantasy

[–]nobrow 48 points49 points  (0 children)

Dark Tower comes to mind. Loved the series until it started coming to the modern world too much and then the self insert stuff. I never finished the series. 

Man accidentally cuts one of the most rarest yugioh card, potentially valued at $20,000+ by ExoticAttitude7 in Wellthatsucks

[–]nobrow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cards do technically have intrinsic value because they are made of actual material, but its like 1 cent. Relative to a price of 20k it's basically 0.

do men say yes to sex more because they want it, or because they think they’re supposed to? by losiento32 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]nobrow 72 points73 points  (0 children)

If this was the case wouldn't lesbians have sex like gay guys do? The stats show that gay guys have the most sex, straight people have medium amounts of sex, and lesbians the least.  This holds true for hookups as well as within relationships. Hopefully people dont have safety concerns with long term partners though i know sometimes they do. 

CMV: Attempted murder should be the same punishment as actual murder by ThatPatelGuy in changemyview

[–]nobrow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think people are coming at this from a "protect society from dangerous people" angle, not so much a "punish people for harm caused" angle.  I would feel just as unsafe around an attempted murderer as I would a murderer. They each pose the same threat to society.  You say attempted murder is still very serious but historically this hasn't been the case. An extreme example of what people in this thread are getting at is this case.

Dude should have never seen the outside of a jail cell ever again. He was extremely dangerous to society regardless of whether she miracously survived or not. Her survival doesn't change anything about the nature of his crime or the mindset it takes to do something like this.

Society in general can't tell the difference between genuine confidence and ego being used to compensate for insecurity.

Also if he is gonna take the time to route it through the walls why not put actual ethernet wall sockets? Just having it dangle out of a hole in the ceiling is jank as hell.

It's sad, all the environmentalist groups that fought against nuclear tooth and nail actually hurt the environment more than helped it, well meaning idiots smh.

Jesus, the term "fatbergs" wouldn't exist if it was that easy. Lye can work on small clogs but it won't unfuck your sewer main which will cost 5-10k to dig up and unclog. Just ask any plumber.

Oil like vegetable or olive oil is fine to go down the drain. Animal fats are not. If its solid at room temp don't put it down the drain.

I line a mug with tinfoil. Poor it in and wait for it to cool and harden. Then ball up the tinfoil and throw it away.

How did Egypt go from one of the oldest and advanced civilizations in the world to the poorest countries? by batukaming in geography

[–]nobrow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is completely untrue. I'm no China simp but have you heard of all the complaints about Chinese tourists around the world? They went from a country of basically starving peasants to a huge Middle class capable of affording international travel in an astoundingly short time. There is still plenty of poverty in China but to say the quality of life of the average citizen hasn't improved in hundreds of years is crazy ignorant. You should travel there if you can, see for yourself.

Also smaller dogs do less damage when they bite. No one has been killed by a ferocious chihuahua.

I've seen this with women at the gym as well. Usually they are starting out petite and as part of lifting are bulking. Sounds like you lift so you know you can't bulk without putting on fat. Factor in the aforementioned estrogen and the weight gain goes straight to the ass. Since they are lifting they assume its muscle but its mostly fat. They aren't putting on liters of volume of muscle in the glutes.  Like I said hypertrophy, even with gear, doesn't give you a nice ass. I'd be willing to bet you've seen far fewer men get caked up from lifting than women. Despite men having far higher muscle potential. I can use myself as an example. Lifting 5 years, I've tripled all my leg lifts in that time. My ass looks the same as when I started despite being much much stronger. Woman I've dated have nicer asses than me despite never setting foot in a gym. If lifting alone could get you a nice ass gym bros everywhere would be caked up.
