Sure, but now you’ll be able to sway all those people who were on the fence about believing the lie until they see the “evidence”

Thought that was a hovering Final Fantasy text box

I'm re-reading The Hobbit at the moment. Gandalf might not be a conjurer of cheap tricks, because he's only packing the expensive, high-caliber stuff.

Are there guns in LOTR? How would Bilbo know the smell of gunpowder or call it as such?

usualsuspect191,

I thought the Hobbit was meant to be written by Bilbo so a modern narrator explains it.

I knew there were things like explosives and fireworks, but unless guns are a common use, calling black powder “gunpowder” is weird so I wouldn’t expect middle earth to have that word.

You didn’t have sound for OPs link? I did (it was muted by default)

Is there a way to manually update? My home instance upgraded and now the app crashes at login (still on v0.0.50)

usualsuspect191,

Thanks. I’m probably not doing it right because when I download and open the APK it behaves like it’ll update the app but then gives an error. “Package conflicts with existing package”

usualsuspect191, (edited )

Thought as much. That solved the crashing issue! Now I just get an error when trying to log in, so progress I guess…

Edit: Looks like it was fixed in version 0.0.54! So uninstalled again and installed the new new update and it works again yay! I’m impressed by how fast that bug was addressed.

usualsuspect191,

It’s completely normal and pain free

I like to think it’s a bit painful, but in the good way like wiggling a loose tooth. By the way they rub their antlers on stuff, it might itch a little too.

usualsuspect191,

I also want to eat everything

usualsuspect191,

I could see it for wear and tear, and also to discourage subletting maybe? Makes no sense for children to count if it’s the second one

usualsuspect191,

The information comes from the set of lake houses that his grandfather had. I might’ve partially slept through that lecture.

usualsuspect191,

Both trucks definitely have a longer bed than a Saturn V rocket. Better fuel economy too I bet.

usualsuspect191, (edited )

Contractor here; vans are commonly used for trades that do lots of service work, and trucks for the ones who tend to do new installs/bigger jobs. You’ll see entire fleets of trucks and vans at the same plumbing company for example and see the divide. I’m so often putting gross or unwieldy things in the bed that a van doesn’t make sense, and there are plenty of other reasons a van might not be better. I’ve only ever seen locksmiths in vans for e.g., and never have seen a concrete finisher use anything other than a truck for a different example. It’s a tool at the end of the day and such a weird stance to ignore that certain jobs could be better suited to one over the other.

All of that aside, the “vans” I’m used to seeing that contractors use are essentially big enclosed trucks anyways so not sure why you’re calling one worse. Maybe it’s a regional thing in naming? My truck is smaller than most work vans I see around, so you’re saying I should be using the bigger vehicle that’s less suited to the tasks I need it for?

usualsuspect191,

If you’ve got gross shit to put down, that’s fine as well, the bed is built for it… Just hose it down at the end of the day lol, it’s no different than a pickup truck.

Ugh, you do you, but I’ll stick with the truck. Having my tools (and myself!) in a separate and locked compartment from the box where all the gross and messy stuff goes is such a quality of life thing, and I don’t need to hose it down every day because that’s what it’s for. I’ve helped a friend remove a bloated dead deer out if their back yard and can’t imagine not throwing up if I had that in the back of a van…

I can grab stuff from and toss stuff into the box without opening or unlocking a single thing (full hands, big gloves, super dirty, etc), and can reach over the side from either side no problem. Plus a tailgate is such a handy workbench when grinding/cutting/drilling or doing anything messy really.

These vans are so spacious that they’re frequently converted into minibuses, it’s absolutely wild.

Sounds like that’s too big of a vehicle for my tastes. I prefer something a bit smaller for fuel economy and visibility/maneuverability reasons.

Vans are great. Trucks are great. Different tools with different strengths. There isn’t a one-size-fits-all for vehicles, so what works great for some might not for others.

Clearly Canadian is back though, so nature is healing

usualsuspect191,

This is the most charitable interpretation of why guys send dick pics

usualsuspect191,

Except that makes it worse

usualsuspect191,

How’d this manage to use both it’s and its for same thing?

The first part is the real commercial, the second part is a skit that continues/parodies the original. It’s all different actors between the real part and the skit

usualsuspect191,

Probably the stunning beauty, no rain, no bugs, and snow is pretty great for so many activities

Are you talking credit card fees or bank transaction fees?

Is that a chalk bag?

Is that the Enterprise G (for giraffe)?

usualsuspect191,

I used to listen regularly, but in the last episode I had listened to the host needed to correct something they’d previously said and instead of owning up to the mistake did a really wishy washy glossing over it that soured my opinion on the trustworthiness of the podcast… It’s been a good while now, so maybe time to give it another go

usualsuspect191,

Honestly it’s been a good while and I can’t remember. I think someone else had proved them wrong about something, and it was acknowledged in a way that felt maybe a little dismissive? Not in the full way I’d expect from someone who cares about the truth anyway, and very much in a way I know they’d call others out for. Created sort of whatever the opposite of Gell-Mann Amnesia is where I just couldn’t forget it.

usualsuspect191,

Then you don’t need to cry over spilled milk, you can just wring that sponge over the cereal bowl

usualsuspect191,

Exactly

usualsuspect191,

Pretty amazing you got the text right before it even happened!

Nothing beams like a Deere

usualsuspect191,

I’m guessing their definition of “favourite” is judged by sales, or maybe litres sold? I don’t think anyone prefers Timmies, at least not for a decade or so.

usualsuspect191,

What’s the one on the right supposed to be?

usualsuspect191,

Either the crow is dumb and thinks that’s still an impression of someone else, or it’s somehow not an impression of crow and the joke is that our expectations have been subverted. Also, snail has glasses under the sunglasses

usualsuspect191,

I’ve only ever seen pancake mix in either a re-sealable bag, or just a box; never a bag in a box.

usualsuspect191,

Yeah…

In high school, many of these kids are 18. Plus, you often don’t need to actually sign up in order to see plenty of explicit stuff

Yes, that little message is so helpful to confirm the alarm is set for the right time. It’s saved me a few times for sure

usualsuspect191,

In Daybreakers the vampire society uses cameras and monitors since they don’t show up in mirrors.

usualsuspect191,

That doesn’t make the number much better… That is a lot of people being shot. And it says at least which means it’s the lower bound? I support the message, but can’t we deliver the message without making stuff up?

usualsuspect191,

Then why choose 400 people, or why include the shooting stat once they went with 400? The number would very much round down to zero, and the post says at least 1 person per day which means that’s the lower bound
