  • PetSmart won't let you leave a review if you have adblockers on

    Jump

  • I'm surprised they don't wait for you to hit the submit button before dropping this on you so people feel invested and motivated to do as they're told because of the sunk cost in time and effort writing the review.

  • You have the option to absolve all of Chair or all of Table for the rest of eternity from the fabric of reality. Which would be easier to live without?

    Jump

  • No no, the chairs or tables will be absolved of duty, so like they'll still be around, taking up space, we just won't be allowed to ask anything useful of them anymore because they're retired.

  • What is the most nonsense thing someone has ever told you?

  • You can choose 1 superpower, but the first reply is the side effect. What superpower would you choose?

    Jump

  • Well thought out lol. You should get a genie, I think you'll be prepared.

    Jump

  • But the thing is, if they do the thing you asked in a way where it's noticeable that they only did it because you asked, then they are signalling to you that they understood, which is a form of communication and the word used was "communicate" with animals.

    Jump

  • Hmm, but are they immune to this restriction?

    Jump

  • Haha imagine trying to explain that to people.

    "I have a superpower, I can speak to animals they just can't speak back"

    "But everyone has that superpower, I can do that too"

    "Yeh but I'm actually really talking to them, like in their language that they can understand"

    "How do you know?"

    apparently, the T button dosent exist for some people

    Jump

  • I think it's getting about the level of attention as the person who started doing it hoped it would, which is about as much as possible. That attention is definitely going to run the gamut but it's the internet so plenty of it's going to be hate. Every time I see it I'm split between knee-jerk "that's stupid" and then a begrudging sense of affection for someone's commitment to pointless contrarianism and quirkiness. With the right mental framing it's at different times annoying and endearing.

  • I don't know somehow GiGa just works but GiGantic wouldn't have. I think you instinctively made the right choice even if you didn't mean to

  • It's never too late to fulfill your dream!

    Jump

  • I mean it kinda sounds like Dracula was a spring chicken at the time on this scale so it's sort of undermining the point.

  • I saw this joke and got the reference man. You should feel good about this one.

  • New Orleans ballot for clerk of criminal court runoff election today. Large boxes are city propositions. Tiny box in the top left corner is for the actual runoff...🔎

    Jump

  • Because of who gets to do the considering.

  • What's your professional deformation?

    Jump

  • I rather like the idea of having a word for "the conversation is over, I expect no response." In daily life lol. Feels boss.

  • Are you familiar with that thing where you eat popcorn and you get a tough little piece lodged way back in the depths of your mouth right by the base of your tongue?

    Jump

  • The back of the tongue one is annoying and sometimes chokes me while in the middle of talking, but much worse is when the husk is just the right shape so it wedges in at the interface between the back of a tooth and your gum. Shit is IMPOSSIBLE to get out you just have to wait until it feels like it. No amount of poking with your tongue will dislodge it, or even if you try to use your finger and the more you try, the more the sharp corners of the husk fragment stab at the gums which hurts. Feels incredibly satisfying when it spontaneously just comes out though.

  • Are physical mail generally not under surveillance? If everyone suddently ditched electronic communications and start writing letters, would governments be able to surveil everyone? (Is it practial?)

    Jump

  • I guess you could encrypt your messages in the mail as well.

  • Do you ever think you're smiling for a photo, but then when you see it you look like you have a neutral or even frowning expression? Why does this happen?

    Jump

  • I reckon it's probably to do with internally trying to downregulate the smile so it doesn't look really weird or crazy or fake or stupid and you just overcompensate. You don't know what you look like while you're doing it and that information void gives rise to some self consciousness and pre-emptive embarrassment. Natural smiles don't require you to think about how to do it at all so most people don't really know how to smile in a socially acceptable way on demand with a few seconds notice. Some people are better at it than others, maybe they have a better intuition, maybe they have a better awareness of what muscle movements correspond to what changes on their face and also a really good grasp of which tiny subtleties lead to a photogenic smile or the grimace of a maniacal murderer. Actors are probably pretty good at it either through intuition or just a lot of practice. I should imagine you could train yourself to be better at it, but it'd feel weird and vain to spend your time doing that so a lot of us just make weirdly flat or stern faces in photos.

    If you can actually just enjoy the moment so it makes you smile as a result it'd probably get better results but that idea leads to its whole own self reflexive internal monologue trying to concentrate and force yourself to be happy that probably results in a frown while you summon that concentration.

  • I think it is real, just weird and very, 'for the gram' nice picture though. I guess there's nothing unpleasant on the plate but not sure I'd be that stoked about the combo.
