Imagine if that was one long spaghetti and you could just suck the whole thing without chewing.
Thank you for speaking my thoughts out loud
I once had a dog who liked to… idk he was a weird little shit, loved him. Anyway, I saw him chewing on something once, and he wouldn’t “drop it”. So I went to pull it out of his mouth and it was a string of some sort; and I proceeded to pull out like half a meter of string that he had (mostly) swallowed
I guess he was savoring the last few inches or whatever, but it was like a magic show where they pull handkerchiefs from their mouth
Anyhoo, thanks for coming to my TED Talk
*one long spaghetto
Jordan, is that you?
A true man of science
Don’t you just hate it when you do tons of research to prove someone wrong, but it turns out they were right?
I actually kind of like it. It means my internal model of reality becomes a little more accurate.
I still probably use some flimsy, too much energy to discredit argument back though if they were dicks about it, or I am drunk.
My research shows you are wrong.
Hell no! Being proven conclusively wrong means I get the opportunity to change my mind and become correct, to learn what the right answer is and get all the documentation to support that answer handed to me on a platter. Then when I inevitably run into someone else who is wrong in the same way I don’t have to redo the research, just copy and paste.
i didnt get a PhD in order to not be able to argue with online strangers…
Yep, not everyone is an armchair whatever. Some of us have specific knowledge in certain areas (through hard work) and like to counter misinformation.
Still get called armchair so and so’s though…
Main problem being anyone can pretend to be anything. It’s why I leave my profession out of my comments and always link to sources. Not that it helps much
Yes well I agree, my knowledge in my field isn’t something I came up with, but it does allow me to point towards that knowledge so others may learn.
You need a standing desk that way can be a standup whatever
The ignorant subconsciously depend on a perception of ignorance in others. If they find themselves unable to do that, they are no longer ignorant.
Or you know… like an actual pile of trash…
Hey at least you guys all have fact checkers in your pockets now lol
Imagine what this was like when we had to go to the library and find a book to prove them wrong lmao
Priorities suddenly become crystal clear when it’s about winning an argument 😂
A lady who supposedly “worked for a water company” and won’t drink tap water argued very confidently this morning that the little flakes you can see in tap water are not minerals. I put on my serious research face, but only had to do one Google search (they’re minerals).
what were they to her then? government tracking chips?
Before the Internet, your argument would just be wrong or uninformed and you wouldn’t know what the answer was supposed to be.
My wife and I were watching a really old The Price is Right recently, and they didn’t know what one of the words of the prize name meant. I don’t remember what the word was now as it was specific to that artist, it was a type of lithograph. But they kind of shrugged their shoulders and moved on. Then like 30 minutes later in the show they were like oh hey, we called this professor at UCLA and asked what this meant and it’s a type of lithograph. I remember my wife and I were just like holy crap the days before the Internet…
You’re hair getting grey during your search from the stress is real.
This is the optimal Wii playing position
motivation is a strong motivator.
Funny because you can’t do the research to figure out why you are lazy and what would allow you to achieve your goals.
It’s called “executive dysfunction” and it doesn’t make you lazy.
Yeah, when I have to do long terms of intense comprehensive study I have to be in an ergonomic position and it’s important to keep your blood sugar up so you don’t feel lethargic.
Difference is importance
