Sagebrush posted:oh yeah fun story btw. i was screwing around with the function generator and the oscilloscope in one of my electronics classes and swept it through the audio range on a speaker. gradually brought it down saying about what age you lose what range, "you all are young enough to be able to hear up to maybe 17khz if you haven't damaged your hearing" etc. I had a prof who did the same but in reverse asking people how hight their hearing went. He turned the machine off halfway through and was just trolling people into 'hearing' sounds that weren't there. :audiophiles:

tbf people saying sir outside of teachers/british empire is weird as gently caress. I remember being in Korea and a huge army dude and his family stoping me and asking for directions. I knew where to send him but every sentence was finished with Yes Sir. Thank you Sir. So left after the lights Sir? and it weirded me the gently caress out because I was some slightly drunk scrawny british kid and he was this obviously high ranking mid thirties military guy stood next to his wife and kids and he was still talking to me like this, as if it was programmed into him and now he couldn't speak in any other way.

Luigi Thirty posted:In Japanese you're supposed to conjugate verbs on relative social standing but I guess only olds care about the highest respect levels these days and young people aren't taught it anymore In korean you have to do it all the time and its nbd because you do it instead of all the other bullshit we do in english to sound polite. More like just saying what you want to say and whacking sir/mr/hi/bro/I live with you and don'r care/ on the end of every sentence which in someways is actually way easier and more efficient. But in that anecdote it was weird because the dude was US military and literally had no reason to be respectful to me other than I could give him some directions,. Really he should have been pointing at me and saying 'kids thats why you need to get good grades' yet he still called me sir in the most differential of ways, and it weird me the gently caress out. idk maybe its just because I'm british and therefore have superpower like abilities to pick up on any formality or class difference but it was just something that really seemed odd and out of place to me.

I was having a great time, but I wouldn't even give myself any respect under those conditions.

Smythe posted:idont really care about the color, girth, or lengh of a cock just so long as it's really hard. the hardness is what gets me off. some long thin cocked sproingy bitch come on over here with a cock like a doorstop bouncing all around - lmfao, gtfo here chump. gimme a small dicked chode thats hard and lead and im all over it I want to say source your quotes, but I'm worried that this is pure, unadulterated, internal monologue

From reddit, I know, but this quote made me lolololol all the way to the bubble quote:"Uber, the world’s largest taxi company, owns no vehicles. Facebook, the world’s most popular media owner, creates no content. Alibaba, the most valuable retailer, has no inventory. And Airbnb, the world’s largest accommodation provider, owns no real estate. Something interesting is happening.” Heres the link if you want to read all the stupid comments: http://www.reddit.com/r/Futurology/comments/36wvnf/uber_the_worlds_largest_taxi_company_owns_no/

for real those three bubbles are all being driven by the lack of profitable investment opportunities in the ~*real*~ economy. investing in factories and poo poo for normal plebs just isn't enough for steady 3% return in perpetuity. when all this capital can't be invested profitable the whole house of capitalist cards could fall. 2008 was a rattle and the shakes are only going to get bigger.
