Please clarify. I’m confused as headphones won’t change your skull shape, as far as I know.

What the title says doesn’t make sense! Divers?

You should not do whatever you’re thinking of doing.

People being nice to you only if you provide a benefit to them is certainly not something I’ve experienced in general. Sounds like this person knows lots of assholes.

Percentage is an odd way to measure it. I’m sure I’ve met thousands of people but would know scores who would rush me to hospital if I needed it as per your example. Still a pretty small percentage.

Depends what you’re waiting on, what you’re doing while you’re waiting, and how long you’re waiting.

Sweet. Keep going. You’re winning, I think.

Google says the longest cited Finnish word is “lentokonesuihkuturbiinimoottoriapumekaanikkoaliupseerioppilas,” meaning “airplane jet turbine engine auxiliary mechanic non-commissioned officer student.” Can you make one longer?

Sounds like the way the US is going to me.

We’re not flummoxed. We’re simply emotional and empathetic. We don’t want people (or pets) we know and love to die, because we miss them. We can also see that, for example, a child getting murdered is an awful thing, less awful than someone dying in their bed of old age, but both are dead, and we will either miss them if we knew them as they were big parts of our lives, or we can empathize with the people who did know them even if we didn’t, as we know how it feels to lose someone. People who were always in our lives, who we cared for and lived with, but are suddenly not will leave a gaping hole. It would be inhuman to not feel these things.

One really stupid quote that I think is his, about how people will run from rain but sit in bathtubs full of water. Of course they do, Charles. Wildly different situations with water being the only link.

It is indeed

Hoisted by my own petard (to be foiled by your own plan), is a nice flowery one, although it actually makes sense. The bee’s knees (for something excellent) is a good one that makes no sense. Wet behind the ears (inexperienced) is another cool one.

Ah, the fictional Chad, who is apparently any non-Incel male who has sex

Itaipu dam was incredible. Breathtaking scale. Iguazu was also awesome but too busy for my tastes.

Everyone here will tell you their own country is gorgeous. If I was you, I’d go to the UK and Ireland, visit the giants causeway, the lake district, Snowdonia, the Yorkshire dales.

Referral to a spinal hospital and hopefully an operation on my spine. It has weird nerve spasms every few weeks that make me useless for a day or two. I just hope they can do something as it’s beyond annoying.

What is the ideal number of children dying from preventable diseases each day, sufficient to make you feel happy in yourself?
