Or just given them the food without making it something more than helping their fellow man in a time of need. But maybe I'm just jaded from the years of youtubers using homeless people as props in their quest for fame and not actually doing anything to support the underlying issues.

Well, I'm jaded by all the people who don't give a single poo poo about charity unless it includes a snappy slogan or recognizable picture, so I'm A ok with them Dump-ing away.

Yeah, it's pretty clear to us that he's joking, but the joke could go straight over some folks heads.

Then if they stop wondering who cool Onewheel guitar man is, Chavis Flagg gets less eyeballs. So not ill intentioned, but could absolutely reduce hype for the lesser known artist.

On the other hand, a famous artist commented on his skills. A guy with lots of fans. Who might check this guy out now.

Chickens can gently caress up a person and that's after literal millenia of us breeding them to be as stupid and delicious as possible.

Well, if that person does not overcome the thought that this is a doofy lil chicken and punts it to the horizon.

I'm always a tad amused by the unwarranted humbleness of people when they talk about how geese and stuff can mess you up. You don't have to feel bad just because you can theoretically kill a chicken with a kick.

Have you ever seen someone try to kick a football, and miss the ball? This is a thing that happens. Now imagine the ball can move, and is currently attacking you, instead of staying still at optimal kicking-reach. Good luck!

I would hope that most people pull a full Charlie Brown when they miss. If they did, yeah the chicken would gently caress them up.

I don't need something to be perfect to enjoy the good parts of it. The bad parts weren't even that bad, just baffling

I have grown fonder of them over time. At least they are interesting and weird in a number of ways where many other movies are just bland.

Just because the script was a mess and the story made no sense and it was chocked full of forgettable characters and bad scenes with no clear direction and no one can remember anything about it after the credits finish rolling (except the bafflingly bad parts) doesn't mean its bad!

It doesn't have to be perfect, guys! Also, what loving thread am I in?

Apparently Queen Elizabeth doesn't like garlic, so all the meals served in Buckingham Palace are sans garlic, even though the standard cuisine served at state events there is 'classic french'. Prince Phillip reportedly likes curries but he can't ever have a curry just for himself if he's eating with her because she's the Queen and everyone has to eat what she's having because Protocol.

I'm pretty sure stuff like that has been baked into the foundations of royalty as an institution just so people like me can go "lol" at the most privileged people on earth. It's like they carefully revised a handbook to cause themselves some many minor unpleasantries to even out their vast wealth and exploitation of everybody else.

Regarding British food and lack of seasoning - it's actually because we hate the French. They are very proud of their cuisine, but we see it as them having to fool around with fancy sauces to hide the fact that their meat is often high (or in some cases, named "Dobbin"). In Britain fresh meat is more readily obtained and so the natural flavour can be enjoyed.

That's also the source of our respective national insults. We call the French "frogs" because they eat weird poo poo including but not restricted to frogs, and they call us "rosbif" because we eat - oh, the horror! - roast beef with no special preparation.

I thought the French had occupied England for a while, hogging all the good meat. That's also why all the English words for meat on the table are derived from French, while the words for meat on the meadows are from the Old English that was used before the French stole all your meat.

Yeah, as a layman I read stuff like "causing her to gain such a huge lead that she was well out of sight and off the track by the time second place arrived" and think well, apparently she rode her bike better than the others. There might be more technical stuff to that particular version of competition, but that is utterly uninteresting for me as a spectator. If it is within the rules, the others should suck it up and learn from it.

I have heard (but cannot confirm) that macuahuitls were mostly a prestige and ceremonial weapon, because if you actually used it in battle you'd subsequently have to replace a bunch of the blades which was both expensive and a pain in the rear end.

Otoh, if your enemies know you use one in battle, you will have to fight fewer battles.

"How would I convince a hippo to back down off a fence?" is not a question I've ever pondered before 30 seconds ago, but I decided immediately that "smack it in the face" is not my answer.

The way he goes from its one side to the othe and back between slaps really makes it look like he knows what he is doing. Maybe the hippo thinks it's being smacked by different people and backs down because "Oh poo poo, they got superior numbers!"

Yes, all the time, for centuries that was the only way to make a gun you could shoot more than once was to glue several guns together.



Giving you in that case, obviously, a gun that you can shoot twice, because it shoots seven barrels at once.
