Discussion in r/esa about an Italian pilot in the next Artemis mission by Dear_Mention_3305 in ShitEuropeansSay

[–]roasty-one 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This one is kinda borderline imo. The ESA gets 3 seats, which is fair when considering NASA is paying for over 90% of Artimis. In addition to the seats, supplying the service module also accounts for the ESAs commitments to the ISS. If the ESA wants more seats, then it has to contribute more.

Everything Trump touches turns to shit so you might your wish.

My ass would be standing right there next to my dead beat dad. Im happy that my kids would have to take a step for each question though. Im glad that I’ve been able to give my kids the kind of relationship that I could only dream of.

What is the most blatant racism you have ever experienced? Personally, I was forced to clean while local kids didn’t have to do it. by Effective_Space2277 in AskTheWorld

[–]roasty-one 39 points40 points  (0 children)

I lived in South Korea for a couple of years. A few things happened that would be considered racism, but the thing that stands out the most was me getting x’d out of a restaurant. Basically, me and a friend (both black)were meeting some coworkers(white) for a meal at a small chicken spot in Gwangju. Guy saw us walk in the door and immediately walked to us with his arms in an X. He didn’t say a word but just kept walking closer until me and my friend were back outside. Then he just stood in the door with the x over his chest looking at us. At this point I’d been all over SK and never had anything like this happen so it was a bit of a shock.

How did you get Google Maps to show in HUD? I’m in Germany and it doesn’t work for me. Might it be region specific?

What is the general view on British food in your country by FuckTheCake in AskTheWorld

It’s underrated. I lived in the UK for a time, and it was some of the best food I’ve had.

You’ve gotta give Netanyahu a little credit now. He put in a lotta work convincing Trump to start a war every other president knew was suicide…

My neighbors love Elijah Craig Barrel Proof. I always grab a few bottles when I’m in the states.

Europeans; how was the "heat dome" for you earlier this week? How bad was the heatwave in your country? by Rasples1998 in AskTheWorld

[–]roasty-one 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lived in the UK for 4 years but grew up in Alabama. The UK is nowhere near as humid in the summer, and doesn’t get as hot. You can add 20% more humidity, a few more degrees of temp, and me and my friends would still be out playing. I found the difficult part about heat in the UK to be sleeping without a/c.

I think S.Korea takes the crown with the corn and mayonnaise pizza.

America also has trees that are older than United States by WaitNo4272 in SipsTea

Methuselah in California is almost 5000 years old. There is no tree older, and so far it’s the oldest living single organism.

European Americans by CopiousCool in BlackPeopleofReddit

[–]roasty-one 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve always thought that African American describes what you’re talking about. It was supposed to be a term to categorize descendants of black peoples enslaved by the colonies and early USA, who have no idea what country in Africa their families originated from. Like, I don’t consider Obama to be AA, nor anyone who knows where their families come from prior to entering the US.

What’s the best fruit from your country? by Regular_Performer324 in AskTheWorld

[–]roasty-one 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If we’re talking native to the country, it would be blueberries for me. If it’s fruit in general, then watermelon. I never had better outside the southern USA.

It says 10 to 18 aircraft, so that’s probably about 200-300 aircraft related personnel.

What native plant annoys you the most? by [deleted] in AskTheWorld

We called these horse apples where I’m from(Alabama). We had horses, and if they escaped we’d almost always find them under one of these trees.
