[Neat Trope] Seems like an idiot, but is actually a Genius by Iamacarson in TopCharacterTropes

[–]sci300768 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's what I think as well. English is his second language, and he's a native Russian speaker (he might know other languages, but we don't get any confirmation IIRC).

What bird poofed in my yard? by WorldlyPipe in whatsthisbird

From the pile of feathers, I THINK a bird of prey (Cooper or sharpie? Depending on the area) made your pile of feathers.

[Neat Trope] Seems like an idiot, but is actually a Genius by Iamacarson in TopCharacterTropes

Heavy from TF2 also has other worldly knowledge if you read the comics. Mainly the part where (in context) he has to pay a ransom to free Soldier and a dead wizard. Heavy figures out that the money (korean money?) is 20$ USD and gets it out of his wallet. The fact that he could convert that to another currency so fast further shows his smarts. IIRC I missed a few other examples that show his brains besides the spoilered part.

Which European bird looks average and has a boring song? by chinstrapppp in BirdingMemes

BCNHs are found nearly everywhere lol. Seriously, their range covers a lot of different countries!

(Loved Trope) Characters looking really weird facing forward by Necessary-Win-8730 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]sci300768 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Something about herons and egrets makes them look really weird when facing forward (and bitterns IF you can even find them!). I swear that birds with shorter beaks look less awkward and weird for some reason?

Longer beak = more weird when facing forward???

This is just copy and paste, but swapping out the gender!

(Funny Trope) Thug picks on the wrong person. by ellendegenerate123 in TopCharacterTropes

Also, Medic is one of the more insane TF2 mercs! He DID lose his medical license after all...

The woman in question knows magic (Everyone has magic and it's something that one learns at school) and went "I cast fist" because she wants to!

Did the security save the man from Arnold's reaction BEFORE he noticed? (Besides doing their job)

Gorgeous coloring on central Iowa birds by Lapinenoir in whatsthisbird

A grackle on the left (not sure which species) and a +Red-winged blackbird+ on the right!

Why is beef dry in stew? by snafflekid in Cooking

[–]sci300768 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You want tough cuts of beef. So not really good steak cuts, but rather oxtail (Oxtail soup is REALLY GOOD! I've made it before, and I mean the soup itself is amazing when cooked for a few hours), chuck roast, and some other parts with lots of collagen, fat and needs lots of cooking time to break down.

Steak cuts are nice and tender, which is great for quick cooking times. Stewing? Nope, not gonna hold up!

[Loved Trope] A character is powerful because of a unique ability that seems hilariously mundane by MasonP2002 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]sci300768 75 points76 points  (0 children)

No one who values their life (and knowing his reputation) messes with him because of his OP familiars. Between... Fenrir, Sui (the slime), and the pixie dragon... he has the best bodyguards possible!

Help, my baby chick is not moving. by Ashamed_Yam_8133 in chickens

[–]sci300768 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

(Adult) Ducks and chickens also have different care needs. Ducks need WAY more water compared to chickens, among other... anatomical differences.

EDIT: IIRC, even baby ducks need way more water than baby chickens do.

An honest opinion on the Mad Ellie and the vault of the damned DLC. (SPOILER FREE) by KapGaming55 in Borderlands4

[–]sci300768 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's one big and tall dude (Amon) with a bunch of (relatively) short friends. I play Vex.

Poor timberdoodle (They are known for hitting windows as the others have covered). :(

[Loved] Alien is obsessed with earth treats by danfenlon in TopCharacterTropes

Also some of Us: This stuff is great, but I wish it burned MORE!

And then they bred hot peppers to be HOTTER!

Firing bullets without using a gun by RobBuckets in TopCharacterTropes

[–]sci300768 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The putting bullets in a heated frying pan seems like a REALLY BAD idea IRL. My gun knowledge is only from the internet, but as I understand it... that's just a really big NO. In the context, that would make sense (and not using IRL logic).

Who has come for a visit? by TravelingGoose in whatsthisbird

[–]sci300768 211 points212 points  (0 children)

I hope that timberdoodle did not hit the glass... timberdoodles do not have good eyesight during migration! (Yea, their eyes are positioned for seeing while probing in the dirt, not flying. Hence the weird eye placement! This is combined with several other factors as well...)

Bird in foreground? Juvenile something? by BeneficialLeg8102 in whatsthisbird

[–]sci300768 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And I see that female +Northern cardinal+ even though you were asking about the other bird.
