6 minutes standing because I can? Easy-peasy

6 minutes standing in a theater clapping for some dude I’m never gonna meet (or don’t care to socialize with if we’re in similar circles) because a movie was apparently good? I mean not hard but certainly uncomfortable, in more than one way.

Are you asking The Picard Maneuver if they believe the post is genuine, if they believe the person posting to twitter is actually up 700%, or if they believe it’s a good strategy?

Because I’m 99% sure those all have the same “no” as an answer.

Based on the rest of the comment im assuming #2.

Anyone who actually thinks the poster really is up 700%, hit me up, I’ve got some bridges you might be interested in purchasing.

“sure, the forest I played in as a kid is silent, the trees are dying, insects are sparse, we go back and forth between buried in 10ft of snow and heat wave drought inside a month, the river is low enough that it exposed carvings of 1,000 year old famine warnings, but we keep getting flooded every year with once in a lifetime storms, but there’s NO EVIDENCE of climate change and I can prove it because [politician/company] said so”

Way back in the day there used to be a pizza place in town, and my best memory of them was their dessert pizza.

It was essentially cinnamon bread with m&ms on top and sugar frosting.

It was comfort food when my parents landleech gave us a week to move out and sold the house we lived in forcing us to trash about half our stuff, and live in a car for a few days since nobody in town would juts let people move in that quickly.

So yeah, dessert pizza can be legit.

You ever have one of those moments when you just put 2 and 2 together, and also that you should have had that realization many years ago?

I just realized what NaN stands for…

This must be what people who get told “you can just wait for the shower water to warm up before hopping in” feel like.

Well, Dr. @qjkxbmwvz, I will gladly address you as doctor here to both acknowledge your hard work, and the fact that you aren’t an arrogant prick about things.

Cheers!

The best kind of correct!

I’m sure it would come in handy sometimes, though!

Mildly related, this scene just popped into my head:

“Excuse me, I just need to go get my Doctor Glove”

“what’s that?”

“The glove I wear when I bitch slap people who don’t call me Doctor. It’s embroidered.”

If it weren’t for memes, I wouldn’t know what Todd Howard looks like, or who he even is.

I know this is a joke, but are there seriously people who think someone who doesn’t like you is going to call you “Doctor” because you have a piece of paper?

Of course it’s not just a piece of paper, it requires metric shitloads of dedication, hard work, and all manner of things about which I haven’t the faintest idea.

But the person who doesn’t like you doesn’t care about all that.

Unless there is some sort of reason they need to appease you or someone at an organization they’re part of (work, personal stuff, whatever) they have no reason to acknowledge your hard work.

And honestly, when someone gives me that look and corrects me with “it’s DOCTOR” in that tone, I make a point to never refer to them as doctor, simply because of our first interaction. Be more friendly when introducing yourself as “Dr. Name Lastname”. And maybe learn to live with the fact that not everyone cares about titles.

Sorry for the rant, semi-serious question, it just struck a nerve because someone did this to me recently and did not react well to me continuing to call them by their first name.

“Tiny genetic change”

Oof. Would that it were so easy…

Honestly, I’d be a little surprised if anyone actually did anything to it.

Not for lack of wanting to, but because they, like me, would probably just assume it’s a bait car and cops are 5 seconds away with a kill switch.

I wonder if Randall has seen this?

here’s my 1 minute edit with my phone. Enjoy

“He’s teriyaki flavor!”

Eyes are looking a bit glowy…

Are we sure we took care of all the Ba’al clones?

I want a shitty fan trailer where it starts with someone saying “Somehow Plagueis returned…” where all we ever see is the tall hooded silhouette that never speaks

Then at the end, the hood pulls back, head still in silhouette, but a very… Distinct head appears, and in a slightly deeper than normal voice, we hear “Meesa back…” as glowing yellow eyes open up.

The bear will eat quite well.

Not from eating people, bears don’t like people.

The bear is eating leftover popcorn from all the people watching the shitshow from the sidelines.

It’s becoming a problem, the bears are getting too fat for winter

Neat! I missed this!

Okay so I’m guessing here, and if my guess is right I’m just not familiar enough with bio-sciences to really be sure.

Are these neurons?

And is the joke “These neurons are all over the place so it’s no wonder my thoughts are too”?

Genuine question. I’m more of an engineer than biologist.
