dingus,

I have tried some of the “tricks” in the comments and none work for me. Try as I might, I can only see them as face up and nothing else. It doesn’t make sense to me that they could ever appear face down because the lighting wouldn’t make sense.

dingus,

I love it but I feel like it needs more flair

How odd. I’ve never done my of those things and I grew up on computers. I even used computers as my main way of socializing for most of my life and I’ve still never done those things.

Well…I say that but I’ve definitely stood up and yanked stuff to the floor while wearing headphones many times before. But I have done it for years before I even so much as held a Bluetooth headset. It’s just easy to get entangled in wires.

That other stuff is so incredibly odd to me though. I’ve never forgot that i’m not using a computer before.

dingus,

Is Dr. Perky a plastic surgeon?

dingus,

That’s what you think, P. Sherman at 42 Wallaby Way, Sydney, Australia!

dingus,

I always wondered how shit like this worked. My mom’s uostairs neighbors are of normal size, but they stomp around like they each weigh 600 lbs. I don’t get it.

dingus,

What if you decide to let go yourself

dingus,

Best of luck, friend. I’d set up a will first if you have people you care about. I keep putting it off.

You joke, but it really is an incredibly cool experience. I am not a doctor, but I was privileged to have a hands on anatomy class in school where we had human cadavers. Things are so different in person than they are in textbooks. And getting to actual see, touch, and feel how the human body works and how it goes wrong is just amazing. I was so wowed by it that it’s what led me to my career today (working in a hospital lab with human organs).

dingus,

Idk what in the world you’re talking about. This is a totally relatable sentence that I say all the time. You’re the weird one here if you don’t access to 615 giraffes. Sheesh.

dingus,

Birds aren’t even real!

I have a coworker who if I had met her online, I probably wouldn’t have gotten along with her. We have such completely polar opposite and radically different viewpoints and philosophies in life. We are exact polar opposites in things like political ideologies, religious notions, moral conventions, philosophical views on life, the state of the world, new technology, etc.

But despite our radical differences, she is among the people who I care most about on this planet. If I met her in some sort of internet debate, I would hate her and she would hate me. But in person, when you slowly get to know people over time, it’s different. You realize that they are human just like you are. You both just want to survive on this planet and make your own way. You both have struggles. You both just want to joke and get along with one another.

dingus,

Kanye had some real bangers early in his career. I still listen to them and have them in my playlist.

Not having a snooze button at all seems even more dangerous. Have you not inadvertently shut it off and went back to sleep???

I used to do stuff like that all the time (and still do on occasion), so I have a second backup alarm across the room that keeps me in tow.

What is Something Scientific that you just don't believe in at all?

EDIT: Let’s cool it with the downvotes, dudes. We’re not out to cut funding to your black hole detection chamber or revoke the degrees of chiropractors just because a couple of us don’t believe in it, okay? Chill out, participate with the prompt and continue with having a nice day. I’m sure almost everybody has something...

dingus,

So then what does one do to heal it?

dingus,

I have been having some mental health issues, and I was reading about this the other day. I was going through wikipedia with the various types of antidepressants, and it seems that SSRIs are just barely better than placebo, or even in studies not even better than placebo.

I know there are multiple classes of antidepressants out there. Are there any that do a better job, even if they are not as common?

dingus,

Leslie Knope???

dingus,

Kinky

dingus,

dingus,

Can you link me a to a clip or a pronunciation source that has someone pronouncing it like that? I’ve never heard that anywhere in my life. I’m guessing it’s a less common accent.

dingus,

Lmao thank you! This is the comment I was looking for. Calling me out for being stupid and making a mistake instead of downvoting without explanation!

dingus, (edited )

I’m in the US and I’ve never heard anyone pronounce it “SAW-dur” in person or in any form of media. You are supposed to pronounce the L in the General American accent.

If you use Google’s word pronunciation tools, both General American and Received Pronunciation pronounce the L in soldier.

Edit: I like the downvotes to all my comments without anyone showing me people pronouncing it that way.

dingus,

I can’t turn on the sound while I’m at work so maybe it explains it…but doesn’t the idea of adding water to the towel to expand it defeat the purpose of a towel? Like if I’m wiping up a spill, a soaking wet rag isn’t going to be super helpful. I guess it depends what you want to use it for. Maybe I’m just caught up on the world “towel” when it’s really more like an expandable wet wipe. Idk.

dingus,

such a tragic gif
