I think you’ll find that every school had at least one Lemonjello who was in the class a few years before yours, you just missed him.

HelleSpud posted:Here's a video of someone trying it out and making the fingers for a glove, and someone in the comments (user: greggv8) explains how to do it so the fingers are knitted together. Seriously, there is no reason in the world to have a twelve-sided doodjie which is harder to transport and harder to use -- when you are doing anything with thread, you do NOT want additional protruberances for it to snag on -- when a two-ended doodjie does the trick. And, I repeat, I haven't seen any evidence of non-woven clothing on Roman statues/paintings, and I'd like to see an expert's analysis of a garment that does do this. The first evidence of knitting (not nalbinding, of which there is earlier evidence) is an Egyptian piece from 1000 AD. Like, seriously, I could have used a colander for a hat in 753BC, but unless I produce documentary evidence of people depicted with colanders on their heads, or skulls with colander imprints, or clay toys of colander-headed people, nobody is going to be impressed.

This just reminded me of something that happened in middle school. The teacher called me up and handed me a note and said "Please go to the 7th grade classroom and get spontaneous." For a brief few baffling seconds I was like "does she want me to kick open the door and break into a loving standup routine or what" and then I looked at the note and saw it was for a student named Spontaneous.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rPg5mPY4nLo This might not be unnerving, but it certainly harkens back to Killdozer. Meet Jose Bove, a crazy French farmer who decided to tear down a McDonald's with his tractor to protest American tariffs on cheese.

The Golden Gael posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rPg5mPY4nLo It's sort of misleading to represent him as a 'crazy french farmer'. His parents were highly educated. His father was a member of the French academy of the sciences. He lived in the US with his parents for a while as a child his parents were teaching at Berkeley. As a young man he became involved with counterculture anarchist organisations in France. In 1976 he joined a group of farmers in their protest against the construction of a military base in their area, and after this he became a farmer himself. So to characterise him as a 'simple farmer who stood up against the evil corporate machine is a bit misleading, he is well-educated, and he was politically active before he became a farmer. I imagine he sort of cultivates this image himself, as it makes him more sympathetic. To clarify, I'm not opposed to his anti-globalist ideology for the most part, although I think his anti-GMO stance is ridiculous and he's said some things about how attacks on mosques are actually a false flag operation by the Israeli intelligence agency that I obvioulsy do not agree with.

Yes without contradicting you too much (because you're right about all that), I was being intentionally reductive to be funny. A lot of people aren't fond of him because he was in fact born quite privileged but played the simple farmer. But I did cover each of those points in the video (except for the Mosque stuff, it took away from the comedic elements and didn't add too much and to be honest I didn't dig too deeply because I wanted to get this out). I think he joined the Larzac settlement in '73, but he might have still been busy not-being-in-the-military-when-he-was-told-to-be. The Golden Gael has a new favorite as of 13:12 on Aug 20, 2020 |

An excerpt from a longer r/relationships post:quote:If people want the truth-- the truth is my ex was extremely volatile I was afraid anything I'd do would set her off, so I became like water and ended up a doormat. She'd have full blown temper tantrums, screaming and crying, because I was a poor photographer for her Columbine cosplay photoshoots or brought up that I was uncomfortable that she was writing and drawing Columbine erotic fiction and fanart. She'd spend 12 hours a day obsessed with deplorable topics through writing and art, isolating herself from the world. She would get aggressive, verbally and emotionally abusive, when I'd try to break her free for even five minutes to eat or suggest a mutual activity. She'd constantly talk venomously about my close friends and family to the point where I felt like I wanted to escape my own skin. If she was this way to others, it was certain she felt this way about me with due time  Is this a thing?

Having a hard time seeing the Columbine boys as attractive physically, although I suppose I'm out of touch with Kids These Days. There are other serial killers who I find disturbingly attractive, but emphasis on the "disturbingly". I certainly don't stan any of them.

If it's virtuous to fix a man, then the worse of a man you fix, the more morally upstanding of a person you are. If that was a famous person, you'll have proven to the world that you are good, and they'll tell you you're a good person. A lot of people want validation that they're good. It's a symptom of messaging interpreted to the extremes.

Arsenic Lupin posted:The worse the sin, the bigger credit you get on the Evangelical tour circuit for having repented. Add in a sprinkle of lusting after the reformed rake and I can see how people fall for it. It's true that it would be far more impressive for the guy from American History X to go through the change he did than someone far less extreme and violent, and I don't doubt genuine changes of heart happen - but I'm surprised there aren't more of those charismatic criminal types out there who are successful, playing the part of reform on the outside but hiding their true selves out of preservation. I suppose you wouldn't have much of a way of telling with the ones who do that, but on the other hand people will always have their suspicions about a Karla Holmolka type.

I think the physical response is almost exactly the same for each (and also anger), its why teens take their dates to scary movies. Also why you have probably known at least one couple that sure do gently caress alot for two people that seem to hate each other.
