I make it a point to adopt some of my grandpa’s lingo. Funnily enough my 18-20 year old students can smell 30yo slang from a mile away and will point out it ages me, but they’ve never said anything about the random 50s teenage slang I incorporate.

Fascining, thanks! I might try that if I remember when I’m in GB next year

Interesting! I haven’t been to GB in quite some years, so I might just have seen them and not remembered.
- Comment on How come butthole scratches doesn't get infected with poop bacteria ? 11 hours ago:
Yeah I’ve since googled it too! The fact that the symptoms are something where it’s obvious there’s something severely wrong and that it’s treatable in hospital reassured me, too. I’ve also realised that it’s similar to toxic shock from a tampon, which I never worry about, but am glad to know is a small possibility. Sorry to worry you/gross you out though!

I’ve been to over 20 European countries and I have never seen anything blue raspberry flavoured. I assumed it was an American thing and that it was just raspberry flavoured things that were also dyed blue.

Beyond skin infections, what happens when they enter your bloodstream? Id figure that’d happen with a broken hemorrhoid, since it’s basically and open wound that poop just sits on all day
- Comment on Say hello to Bary 4 days ago:
Yeah pretty much my point. I know you can maybe kinda construe it into the truth if you already know about the topic, like other commenters age saying, but it’s presented as educational, and does a poor job at educating with how misleadingly it is phrased.

Aw this is honestly making my day rn
If it makes it any better I was 100% being serious

Our definition: either high enough or steep enough to have no vegetation at the top. For some people, only the former definition counts. But from experience, the definition must be different in Germany. Maybe someone from there can chime in to share their definition!
- Comment on Mark Zuckerberg, the Lawyer, Is Suing Mark Zuckerberg, the CEO 5 days ago:
A LOT of the ones I’ve seen Germans refer to as that are hills to me, so maybe it’s normal for some. The way we use it, Berg has to go over the tree line, or at the very least be steep enough at the top to not have vegetation there.
- Comment on Mark Zuckerberg, the Lawyer, Is Suing Mark Zuckerberg, the CEO 5 days ago:
As an Austrian, this comment saying that ‘Berg’ translates to both hill and mountain explains a lot about what I’ve seen Germans refer to as Berg. To me it only means mountain.
- Comment on Say hello to Bary 5 days ago:
I mean, the sentence either implies what I said before, or it implies that the barycenter is a point outside the sun. I really don’t see any other reading than those two.
- Comment on Say hello to Bary 5 days ago:
It says it’s so massive they orbit a common point. That directly implies this only happens over a certain mass.
- Comment on Say hello to Bary 6 days ago:
The way this is phrased makes it sound like there’s a certain threshold where this starts happening. That’s not right. Even a grain of dust wouldn’t orbit the sun, they still orbit their common barycenter. A less misleading way of phrasing would be that Jupiter is massive enough that the barycenter of it and the sun actually lies outside the sun, which is still a cool fun fact.

Man everyone’s having fun on drugs, meanwhile I just sit there unable to figure out whether I have my glasses on

Did people who grew up in the 90s not see shows made for adults in the mid 2000s?
- Comment on Something about psychological warfare idk 1 week ago:
In my experience they often just don’t give you the cent and nobody bats an eye. Idk maybe it’s because I live in a country that doesn’t have as much poverty as the US.
- Comment on Something about psychological warfare idk 1 week ago:
I have this bottle of laundry soap that fucks with my brain because it’s 2.97liters. Why would they try to mess with us to make us think there’s less detergent? Or are they suddenly trying to mess with us in that they know we round up in our heads anyway, so they get away with giving us 30ml less? If so, then why did it cost 6.99€? I checked whether it’s because it’s an exact multiple of their recommended dosage and it isn’t, the recommended dosage is 25ml.

He is, because spontaneous is, in fact, the correct term here.
But also, mansplaining just means that someone explains something to another person when it’s painfully obvious that the other person knows everything they’re explaining, often way better than the person who’s doing the explaining. Usually requires the over confidence that comes with unreflected privilege, such as being a man who subconsciously assumes that their gender gives them intellectual authority. Being wrong isn’t a requirement for mansplaining. This would be a textbook example even if he had left out the first sentence (the part where he’s wrong).

Somehow my app won’t let me paste a link, sorry. But for most of your working years, you’re most likely to die by unintional injury:
And that’s just death that we’re talking about. ‘Dangerous’ implies all harm, not just death.

Great news, traffic deaths are no more because most victims die in the hospital instead of at the site of the accident. Fear hospitals, not traffic.

Even that is kind of interesting, I’ve seen broken toilet stall locks maybe three times in my life, all of them on a train

It didn’t even occur to me that it could mean what you said because I unfortunalety tend to be to literal to a fault and what it literally says is something else

The party bucket is more fun if you CHOOSE to use it, even if you don’t have to

Ah, to be fair it is confusing that it says ‘door with no lock’

When I was a kid I thought money laundering was when someone faked cash and then threw it in the washing machine so it wouldn’t look suspiciously crisp

I have never seen a non lockable public toilet in my life
