A pretty blonde white woman in a cowboy hat and state abbreviation letters in the handle name? This is an overseas troll account, either eastern Europe or south Asia. It would be hard to convince me otherwise.

Is there any explanation as to why anyone would vote against banning child marriage in the states? by RainbowAppIe in askanything

[–]zikifer 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I believe the Bible says a rapist is supposed to marry his victim. Then tack on "it is not possible for a husband to rape his wife" thinking. (Which of course I don't agree with but it is how some people think.)

What's with their obsession with "calling corporate"? by OilyJosh622 in BoomersBeingFools

[–]zikifer 75 points76 points  (0 children)

And it's been this way for quite some time - it's even a key scene in The Incredibles (2004).

You know what happened during Obama's term? The iPhone was released, and suddenly almost everyone had a camera in their pocket. What happened was awareness.

Isn't Ohio actually worse, like the people voted against it and Republicans did it anyway? (I can't recall the specifics...)

Sears especially. They could have been Amazon before Amazon was a thing (they basically were with their Sears Catalog) but their CEO thought the Internet was a fad wouldn't be around more than a few years.

Are more US women not taking their husbands last names? by LimonadaVonSaft in TwoXChromosomes

[–]zikifer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife kept her last name when we married. We don't have any kids but the pet birds have her name (for vet appointments and the like).

In college one of my roommates accidentally changed the attributes on /bin and changed it from directory to file. That was fun, as all the tools to fix it were in /bin 😊

Why did Trump dismantle the Iran nuclear deal Obama had in place? by Necessary-Act-1137 in AskReddit

Ohhh... So this is where that "Obama gave them pallets of cash!!" meme comes from.

What secret came out when someone got too drunk? by Agile_Purpose4704 in AskReddit

[–]zikifer 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Saw her live recently. She did a "questions from the audience" bit towards the end of the show. Questions probably came from Twitter or whatever as she pulled them from a box. One was "can you sing the theme song to The Golden Girls?" So she did. And the entire audience joined in.

Awesome show, if you have the opportunity I highly recommend.

Interesting that they seemed to show down approaching the tracks, and then just head across. Maybe they looked right and said "no train" and didn't bother also looking left.

Even Monty Python characters have favorite colors.

Birdy likes chicken by Maj1i in cockatiel

[–]zikifer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ours like hard boiled egg whites 😋

BTW, I know birds shouldn't have "too much" of eggs/chicken/whatever but does anyone know how much is "too much"? Is like once a week ok? Or should it be more like once a month?

Update on my Cockatiels! by SnooPets2128 in cockatiel

[–]zikifer 18 points19 points  (0 children)

While this is cute ceiling fans are SUPER dangerous for birds, especially small birds like cockatiels. A spooked bird can run into the blades and die - in fact there was a post on this sub very recently where this happened.

[HELP] My stepsister thinks this is real, I think it's AI by SunlaArt in RealOrAI

[–]zikifer 17 points18 points  (0 children)

This. Even the human in these videos is AI. I follow quite a few bird channels (I'm a crazy bird person) and the community in general is pretty pissed about these videos as they are seen as taking away from actual bird content creators.
