From the ones ive seen mentioned, I second Electroboom, Crime Pays But Botany Doesn’t, Practical Engineering, ZeFrank, and Kurzgesagt.

If you like biology and evolution, I would recommend Lindsay Nikole.

If you like deep dives into various types of engineering, I would recommend Real Engineering. He does a lot of aviation and aerospace stuff.

Husbando, yeah. I agree with you though, it’s not as fun to say.

Can I pick both?

The overarching answer is “people are different”. But I suspect you want a more granular answer than that.

Depending on various factors like age, sex, hydration status, disease process, etc., some people’s skin is more elastic than others. People also have different pain tolerances. If you mix and match all of these factors, you’ll get people reacting differently to the same stimuli.

A walk?

Ground beef.

What do you call a cow with 2 legs?

Spongebob

DragonBall Z

Ed, Edd, n Eddy

And at the time of writing my previous two posts, I was a little drunk so I hope I made my point lol.

But yes, I understand where you are coming from. There is always an alternative, more “polite” way of getting a message across, even if that message itself is not polite. Using curses is a crutch for people that do not have the wit and vocabulary to say what they want to say. Did I get that right?

I feel like we agree to some extent. However, where we differ is in our attitudes towards the use of curses. You seem to look down on people who curse at all whereas I look down on people who curse profusely. By profusely, I mean in situations where cursing is not warranted (inappropriate setting) or just general overuse.

I think people can do and say whatever they want so long as they don’t hurt anybody, cursing included. I don’t see how the use of curses actually hurts anyone except maybe the recipient of a pointed “fuck you”. Anyone else around to hear the curse word only gets offended because society told them to.

I draw the line at racial slurs. That’s just not cool.

It’s entirely possible to get your feelings across without ever using curse words. I commend people for having the emotional maturity and the vocabulary to do so. However, I feel it is emotionally disingenuous to censor yourself with “polite” versions of curse words, for example saying “shoot” instead of “shit” or “fudge” instead of “fuck”.

I can understand if your surroundings aren’t conducive to curses, like being around children or in polite company such as a work or religious environment, but if you’re in a position where it is socially acceptable to curse but instead choose to censor yourself, I find you to be emotionally disingenuous or at least emotionally immature. If you choose to never ever curse, that’s cool too. Again, I think it’s commendable to never have to resort to curses. But if you have to use a curse word to get your point across, just use it if the environment is appropriate. Doubly so if it’s in a written medium.

I know what you’re trying to say when you type “f**k”. You’ve done nothing but demonstrate to me that you would like to seem “proper” while still resorting to using offensive language. Emotionally disingenuous, or at best emotionally immature. If you feel like you must censor yourself, then just don’t curse at all.

I thought two-stroke engines mix the oil and fuel together? Every time you refuel, you should also be topping up the oil. Am I wrong?

I agree to an extent. If overused, cursing can be “edgy” and offputting. However, sometimes you just need to emphasize the emotion of a given statement that mere “polite” words cannot express.

Quite frankly, I do not trust people that do not curse. I feel that they are not emotionally genuine. Conversely, I feel that people that curse too much are emotionally immature and do not know how to express themselves properly. Cursing is an art. It’s a linguistic balancing act where one must take the audience and message into consideration.

Edgy humor is fun and all, but this I feel is in poor taste.

This is the sole reason I want contacts.

“Courage means being scared but doing it anyway” seems like a pretty succinct way of putting it I think.

My wierd compliment (if it can be called that) was when I was in high school English class. My teacher noticed how competent I was and how I was the only one to consistently raise my hand when he asked a question. He gave us a research paper to do and I got an F on it, exclusively because I fucked up the citations. He said the content was good, but he had to mark me way down due to improper citing. He said “I know you can do better than this.”

Is that a complement? Either way, I think about that interaction and scenario a lot even though I haven’t been in high school for well over a decade.

I can’t speak to lions and mice, but chickens or even just birds in general will peck at anything smaller than them that moves.

Yeah, I saw that documentary. They would even sometimes team up with yellow triceratops.

I don’t get it 😕

Naked dudes is one thing. The guy you replied to is talking about a gaping prolapsed anus.

I can think of a couple ways, but whether or not they’d work is unclear or if they’d even be ethical or practical.

Best one I got is to keep the cows indoors and collect the methane from the internal atmosphere. Make the roof of said building out of glass or some other clear material so that the cows and their grazing ground has access to sunlight. But then you’d need to regularly clean the roof…

Not to mention having to maintain an HVAC system that siphons all the air (or maybe just the top layer?) of the interior space and somehow separates the methane from the myriad other gases in the space.

Sounds plausible but impractical.
