  • What are the most upbeat songs with kind of depressing lyrics?

    Jump

  • The Macarena I'd about a woman cheating on her BF getting drafted into the military with 2 other guys

    Which is pretty intense for a song they taught to kids in grade school

  • Reposting one of my top lemmy comments:

    NASA is a very safety conscious organization. So they want to overestimate everything and include way more than they need. So when she said a couple per day you can round that to 5 for safety, then considering it's a 6 day mission they want to include triple the amount of needed supplies which means 18 days worth. 18*5=90 which is pretty close to 100 so let's round up again. Plus tampons are a useful first aid tool, especially in zero gravity. You shove some into an open wound and it'll prevent blood from spilling all over the very sensitive equipment. Does a woman need 100 tampons for 6 days? Of course not, but she wasn't going to spend a week in the mountains, she was going to space, so the safety precautions were much more stringent

  • What's your country's version of the blue/green bubble?

    Jump

  • It was, I got laid plenty in college. I meant I would get a woman's number, text her, then she would give 2/3 responses and disappear. It stopped almost entirely when I switched to asking for Snapchat instead

    Jump

  • Oh, OKC used to rock a decade ago. Before they started the monitization efforts they had over a thousand questions that you could pre-sort matches based off of their importance to both of you. There wasn't swiping, you just actually looked at profiles. It really rewarded writing good profiles which I happen to do well

  • What's your country's version of the blue/green bubble?

    Jump

  • You probably don't interact with a lot of teens then. It's pretty common in high schools and college campuses. I was told a decade ago that my green bubbles were probably why women stopped texting me after I got their number off okcupid

  • What's the worst change made in a movie adaptation of a book?

    Jump

  • I remember it being a rat unless we're discussing different parts but that's just the reality of what you were able to get away with in 2000s media. The movie would have been NC-17 if all of the violence from the book made it in

  • What's the worst change made in a movie adaptation of a book?

    Jump

  • I mean, no? It would defeat the point of the story. The monoculture of white men destroying everything around them was what Brett Easton Ellis was talking about and making clowns would have made that a different story

    Jump

  • If anything he made Chani less of rug to be walked all over and gave her a personality outside of "wife to the messiah". If you were going to bitch about anyone in the Dune movies I'd think it'd be The Lady Jessica because she is an entirely different character in the movies. I don't think that's a criticism because she serves the plot well, but that one is a more grounded argument

    Jump

  • I'm a little surprised at that response because American Psycho is one of the most true to the source material movies I've ever seen. Whole passages were lifted and turned directly into dialog. Sure all of those white men were supposed to be corporate clones in the books but in a movie characters have to be visually distinct that's just the nature of the mediums

  • TIL Germany has trees you can dance in.

    Jump

  • In America we have trees you can drive through:

  • TIL about the Concorde aircraft that flew at twice the speed of sound, and thad passenger flights from NY to London in three hours (versus 7 hours)

    Jump

  • If you're paying that much to fly you're not waiting in regular security

  • How would you react if someone said they had a dream of you in it?

    Jump

  • In her defense if you'd rather be porking that ball of anxiety who causes every man in her orbit to experience full on ego collapse than your wife, she has every right to divorce you. And Jeph can pay her legal fees, god knows he has the patreon money for it

  • What is a food that you are very picky about?

    Jump

  • American BBQ. There're a lot of regional flavors and differences but most of them are bad in my opinion. Memphis dry rubs and Kansas City molasses sauces are my 2 favorites

  • California moves to dismantle GOP map — and Trump’s grip

    Jump

  • If there's anything at all Democrats have to learn in order to win ever again it's that "when they go low we go high" and having a moral backbone is a losing strategy. Cheating and breaking rules keeps letting the other side win and they keep making it easier for themselves, if Democrats refuse to start slinging mud then they're just going to keep losing

  • spend 4 years in college, get certified, start teaching children, get yelled at by parents and principals for giving a student who was on their phone for the whole class a C, make $45,000/year

    play apex legends in the basement shouting racial slurs and eating cheetos for 2 years, get a $50,000 signing bonus on top of a $80,000 salary

    Guess which one is more likely to be shot and killed at their job?

    It's not the one who has a gun

  • the new Sisyphus

    Jump

  • For the record that's about as far back as the first "homo"s appeared. Homo Erectus, Homo Habilus, and of course us, Homo Sapiens. So he would be working from the time that the first thing we could mostly call humans first appeared, through some ice ages, through agriculture, and the entirety of human unrecorded and recorded history. 24/7/365 with zero breaks. Truly, we cannot comprehend these numbers

    Is there like a cheat code for dating apps?

    Jump

  • Short answer: pay them. These apps have made themselves the barrier to human interaction and will put you in front of more people if you pay them. If you're online dating then you're playing a numbers game and the best way to win a numbers game is playing as much as possible
