- Comment on Why do people call Fiji and Voss Water “Rich People” Water? 2 days ago:
You either live in an airport where everything is ridiculously expensive and you don’t see the difference, OR
you are buying knockoff bottled water, someone’s selling imitation bottles filled with tap water in your area.

Ok sure some of these luxury items will be more affordable, right now that fuel shortages are guaranteed to increase the price of absolutely everything you are lucky to still find.
- Comment on Huge study finds no evidence cannabis helps anxiety, depression, or PTSD 4 days ago:
I can’t read any of the comments you have been replying to here because OP deleted them, but anyway I’m here to applaud you on your explanation right here. It’s so infuriating seeing regular people fall for this over and over again, and no accountability for the media spreading misinformation (intentionally or not). I wish I was as articulate as you though
- Comment on whats the political message of Spongebob? 4 days ago:
Why /s? I get that you are exaggerating for humor, but you are hitting the nail. It may not be the main intention of the show, but it does show these things, since it reflects our society. You came up with a pretty solid answer for a question that forced a political framework of analysis onto something that clearly wasn’t about showcasing politics.
- Comment on Is trying weed edibles worth it? 6 days ago:
Whether or not it is worth it depends on what you consider ‘worth’. For sure, if it’s nagging the back of your head then give it a go just to know what it is. Personally, I was disappointed. It pays if you try thinking why you want to do the things you want to do.

- Comment on With regards to cutlery, do you prefer a spoon or a fork for eating cake? 1 week ago:
I’ll show this to the staff in the places I frequent next time they give me a spoon with my cake order, thanks
- Comment on With regards to cutlery, do you prefer a spoon or a fork for eating cake? 1 week ago:
It doesn’t fall, unless we are talking about something extremely crumbly such as thousand layer cake. Which to be fair is also a pain to eat with a spoon, or any kind of cutlery. I find the flat profile of the fork is excellent to cut a small portion of the cake away without upsetting the rest of the cake structure. I can’t say the same about the curve of the spoon, which forces a scooping motion that often messes up the cake. I also find that the curved edge of the spoon makes it difficult to lift any crumbs from a flat plate surface. If I can’t lift crumbs with the fork’s edge, I can always press them down flat between the prongs and lift them. The curved shape of the spoon doesn’t allow for this. Finally, I prefer how the fork feels in my mouth as opposed to the spoon.
So, these are my reasons for preferring a fork over a spoon when eating cake. Interesting to see people making a case for the opposite, but hey that’s exactly what I wanted to know.
- Comment on Why is AI so bad at coming up with dialogue? 1 week ago:
Are you asking why a device with no feelings or personal life experience can’t create realistic dialogue when prompted to create something based on dialogue from comics and fanfic? Comics which barely explain context with words (since they use images)? Have you noticed how over the top, melodramatic, stylized and unrealistic dialogues are in so many comics, superhero ones in particular? Fanfic isn’t that much better. Of course there are some with good writing but the vast majority is mediocre at best and cringe at worst.
I’m surprised the LLM could come up with something narratively cohesive to begin with
- Comment on With regards to cutlery, do you prefer a spoon or a fork for eating cake? 1 week ago:
This is the opposite of my experience. I find usually, not always, cake comes with a spoon. I prefer a fork.
- Comment on With regards to cutlery, do you prefer a spoon or a fork for eating cake? 1 week ago:
I’ve read the cake is a lie in many places, I wouldn’t be so sure
- Comment on With regards to cutlery, do you prefer a spoon or a fork for eating cake? 1 week ago:
Yup and the deeper the spoon the worse it is! Agreed

If the shit she sees is legal, she has to keep quiet. If this shit is illegal, ie., trafficking of some sort, embezzlement, abuse, theft, fraud, assault, etc. then she can (and should) speak up.

- Comment on Can one use someone's previous argument against themselves in a different legal case? 2 weeks ago:
That’s the beauty of these places. I’ll see what crops up in the replies. So far it seems pretty consistent with “yes it’s possible”, but I’m also interested to read about any “no you can’t where I live”

I’ll take it as a compliment? I don’t see the perfection though, the only manual breaks there were for the paragraphs

I’m more intrigued as to why, out of all things you could pick to bring back to medieval times should you have the opportunity, why would you pick a Kleenex box

I’m happy to hear Netflix is not acquiring more. I’m not so sure about Paramount and Warner merging though. Could have been worse I guess.

It is an important detail. Someone not familiar with feline anatomy might wonder whether straddling prey and dragging it in such a way interferes with the feline’s testicles. Clearly not a problem
