Mate, that read exactly like a typical title on r/lifeprotips.
- Comment on Alec Baldwin charged for shooting; 3 months ago:
If they had practiced actually firearm safety on the movie set, the guns would have been blank guns incapable of firing live ammunition.
In fact they’d should have had no guns capable of firing live ammunition on set.
All they should have had were blank firing guns and disabled firearms (e.g. firing pin removed)

Oh damn son. You brought back some painful memories. Imagine tracking down a loved one and finding them but finding out the only thing you can do for them is end their suffering.
- Comment on A good deal of IT work, too 5 months ago:
Funny. In my day Wikipedia just came out and they used to give the same advice. In comparison, I would wager any random wiki article has a better chance of being more reliable and a better answer to your question than a Google summary.
- Comment on Imagine voting for someone that wants to get rid of the department of education. 5 months ago:
It means if you don’t know if someone did something because they had evil plans or were fking stulud, its safe to assume they were fking stupid at the point of the incident.
Especially if the evil plan would have been convoluted and required things to align just perfect for the plan to be successful.
- Comment on If other countries can afford massive internet pysops why can't I find a job in the states where I get to meme and troll all day for the US military? 5 months ago:
Manpower in ‘developed’ countries is too expensive.
The little anecdotal data we have points to something in the range of 50 cents per “state” approved comment.

What about mechanical components like pipe connectors?
- Comment on Ya gotta keep up with the times! 8 months ago:
Joking aside I have no dog in this fight. Just tell me what to call it.
Although its a pain in the ass because I work in a country where english is a second language. And technical terms are all borrowed from English. So it may get hilarious when we have to write purchase specs or give instructions to our vendors. They’ll be scratching their heads for a bit.
- Comment on Ya gotta keep up with the times! 8 months ago:
Have you seen the one where the company says we shouldn’t use the terms male/female in a technical setting because it implies only 2 genders and apparently genders exist on some sort of spectrum?
So I emailed HR to ask for alternative suggestions and if I had permission to ports and connectors as penis and vagina connectors. I think this will be an important discussion because the have the director of HR, legal and my manager scheduled for a meeting next week.
