A random one from the Jackelrod era. There was a good edit featuring this one but I can't find it. Someone here probably remembers what I'm talking about.

Bernice and Gunther are both awful.

Also, I like (for a certain definition of "like") how every Spider-Man strip for a while now has had Spider-Man thinking in the last panel how he's going to attack Namor after something that otherwise does not include or have anything to do with him at all. It's like they have to go "Spider-Man's still here! He's doing a thing! He's important!" even as the plot seems like it's going to resolve itself without him so his primary accomplishment is getting beat up long enough for the important people to arrive.

Full body swimming suits have been a topic in Finland recently, because some people, notably muslim women, would like to wear them in swimming pools and public saunas, but some people are against it.



Are people usually nude in the public sauna in Finland? What's allowed? I can see the problem if everyone is nude and some people want to start wearing swimming suits, but if regular ones are allowed it doesn't seem like a bid deal.

I don't think people appreciate escalators as much as they should. When you really think about it, they're amazing. And super complicated, too. You ever look inside one while they're doing maintenance work on it? Any one of those parts goes wrong and you're ground meat, kid. Ground meat.

In swimming pools you have to go to showers (and optionally sauna) naked to ensure hygiene. In public saunas you have to be naked as well, except maybe a hat if you don't want to scorch your scalp. Not sure why anyone would want to go to sauna not naked, anyway... ick.

Aren't the properties of antimatter "Behaving exactly like matter, except it explodes if it contacts matter"?

Not quite! I'm oversimplifying a bit (there are a number of interesting little particles who are their own antiparticle, such as photons) but the standard antimatter is the same mass but opposite charge. Examples of this less weird kind are the positron (an electron-mass particle with a positive charge) and the antiproton (a proton-mass particle with a negative charge). Since the charges are opposite this type of antiparticle is strongly attracted to its counterpart. Antimatter can form normal atoms. In fact, CERN has actually produced antihydrogen!

Of course, this doesn't apply to things without charge. Antineutrons exist and those are obviously still neutrally charged.

Yes, but electrical charge is also the opposite, so it would, in fact, be attracted to matter.
