Some form of torture. The thing about torture is you can always add “and then…”

Psychological and physical

Imagine being forced to rip off your significant other’s fingernail.

And you might say “There’s no way I’d do that”

Sadly you will. Either to save yourself or them from more torture.

You will do it, we all would. That’s scary.

Sweet Gherkins

It’s because of the tree’s “shadows” on the lake.

There is a dirty spot right where a shadow should be on the right trees and the tree in the yard blocks all the shadows of where the other trees should be.

If you removed the tree and cleaned the wall it wouldn’t look like a lake at all.

Chimpanzees are one of our closest relatives in the animal kingdom.

Chimpanzees are known to be cannibals

Does that make cannibalism “natural”?

You’re assuming people who are forced to buy into the suburban hell have a choice.

If a person had a choice between a 100k house in a suburban hell or a 100k house in secluded heaven. That they pick the suburban hell.

Have you seen the housing market in the US?

It’s also funny how “Suburban” meaning has changed. It’s supposed to be non-urban.

But with these “suburban” neighborhoods in cities. It has basically became a word for a neighborhood with houses built next to each other and less about where it’s located.

Suburbs use to be an inexpensive option as opposed to urban living.

Highly recommend going to see it in person. Pictures can’t do it justice.

It’s like the grand canyon. You can look at pictures but being there to actually see the scale is a different experience.

It’s honestly mind blowing

I have been on this planet for a while and I have only seen the night sky like the last picture driving through Texas in the middle of nowhere.

Power going out in a city isn’t enough to stop the light population from surrounding areas. It would have to be the only city around for miles and it would have to be a full power loss.

I would say most people have never came close to seeing an uncountable amount of stars in the sky.

I live in a medium sized city that is 30 minutes from a large city. I can count like a dozen stars in the sky. If we lose power the sky doesn’t magically change to look like it was in Texas. Honestly, I don’t remember it changing at all.

As someone with long hair and a long beard I haven’t been carded in basically 10+ years.

Last weekend I got carded buying a beer with my parents-in-laws. Of course one of the very few times I didn’t have my ID.

Two 65+ people order a beer and then like, oh we’ll get your beer on our tab to make things easier. Bartender “I’ll need to see his ID”

We all couldn’t believe it. I wasn’t upset or anything, it was just kind of absurd feeling. I’ve been drinking for almost 20 years.

It’s one of those situations where common sense should be allowed to be used.

I.D. is Eye-D

It’s missing a last syllable

Most people I know say Eye-Dee-Uh. And the Uh is exaggerated.

I.D.er works.

Dang you would have gotten BoobSmiles too

I get that

I wouldn’t buy diamonds or gold hoping they increase in price just as much as I wouldn’t buy bitcoin to do the same.

If you offered me 1USD in Gold, Diamond, or Bitcoin.

I would take the gold. It has the most intrinsic value.

The probably that gold hits 0USD is less than bitcoin hitting 0USD.

The only reason you’d take bitcoin is if you think that it has a higher ceiling. Intrinsic value is the floor. But that is gambling

Craps is almost a team game.

If everyone plays the Pass Line (Shooter, the person throwing the dice has to play it) then everyone wins/loses together.

Everyone at the table playing the Pass Line is pulling for the shooter to make his point.

Now imagine if you have one person out of 8 playing the Don’t Pass. The person playing Don’t Pass line is hoping the other 7 players lose so that they can win.

It’s almost equivalent to everyone at the roulette table playing black. And you walk up and say “I hope it comes red”. Like why don’t you just hope it comes black so you can win when everyone wins?

My brother takes the dice and rolls the point. Everyone places their chips. I place my chips. The dealer asks me, “Did you mean to put your chips on the Don’t Pass Line?” “Yes, that’s exactly what I meant to do.” Silence. Then my sister: “You’re an asshole.” My brother rolls again: seven. The Don’t Pass Line wins me a couple bucks.

This doesn’t make any sense

1. Once the point is established by the shooter on the come out roll, you cannot play Pass or Don’t Pass lines.

So after your brother takes the dice and rolls the point. You cannot place your chips on Pass/Don’t Pass. Maybe why dealer was confused?

2. Don’t Pass Line pays on shooter rolling 2 or 3 on come out roll. You’d lose if he rolled a 7. Pass Line wins if shooter rolls a 7 on come out roll.

Second roll was a 7?

You’d have bet Don’t Pass before your brother ever rolled the dice for a second roll 7 to win the Don’t Pass

Bets after the shooter’s first come out roll are usually Come/Don’t Come bets.

If you made a Don’t Come bet instead of a Don’t Pass (Dealer was confused from your illegal play and considered it a Don’t Come bet.) You’d still lose if a 7 were rolled second. So that doesn’t make sense.

If your first bet was after your brother rolled once. The only way you’d win with him rolling a 7 on his second roll would be to play a SEVEN bet. Which would be an even bigger dick move than Don’t Pass because it’s a one turn bet that your brother was going to roll a 7.

I guess most likely you played the don’t pass before your brother ever rolled

But if that was all we used it for, the price of gold would be a tine fraction of what it is

That’s intrinsic value.

Gold and diamonds have intrinsic value

Gold is needed for computer parts, and diamonds are used for cutting

They are more than just shiny

Their value will “never” hit 0 (Bitcoin would be worthless without gold for computers)

Yes, we could find substitutes in the future, but for the substances to not be useful somehow is so low and would have to be an apocalyptic scenario. And in an apocalypse, gold could even be worth more.

You could hack a futuristic firmware upgradable power knife, but how do you hack it to hack off fingers?

Aliens had the supernatural power to be the machines

A self driving tesla trapping people in a gas station is 100% more believable than the semi.

Something is there…
