DeadMansSuspenders posted:I especially like this because O- blood is nearly always stocked because it doesn't have antibodies or Rh factor; it's the universal donor. Yeah that's why it's actually really hard to stock because it's so useful. I'm constantly getting texts from the blood service telling me stocks are low pls come in.

Catberry posted:See you're the blood sucker. They take your blood and give it to others but when you need it they'll be all out. I've been injecting my dog with my blood for years so if I ever need any I'll just take it back out along with his fundamental dog essence and become even more powerful. Use your woof woof next time, idiot. ilmucche posted:I thought AB+ was the universal receptor. O- universal donor. Yeah that's right! So it means O- is the best for donations but the worst to have because you have less total blood that can be donated to you.

ilmucche posted:Cool, I was confused because other poster referred to O+ as fygm blood, when it's still pretty good to donate. Although I guess only + people can take it? Yeah exactly! It's definitely the easiest blood to have outside of the universal receptor because it's so common and then you have O- on top of it! O Positive 47 A Positive 26 B Positive 9 O Negative 8 A Negative 5 B Negative 2 AB Positive 2 AB Negative 1 Is the breakdown percentage-wise in Ireland and though there is variation in other countries you're still looking at something fairly similar. O and A take up such a huge amount of the population that everyone else is pretty rare and O- has it worst because even the guy who has 1/100 rarity blood can also receive ours. e: actually the IBTS has a pretty cool key that I didn't know about. Blood donation is more variable than I thought

Not wanting children is very understandable as you say but as soon as people start grouping up and using special terms to refer to people outside that group then you know they've gone a bit off. "I don't want kids" - tip top and okay "ugh look at those breeders and their crotchspawn" - I laugh and subtly cover my throat with my hand in case you smell the baby talc I accidentally spilled earlier and attack me

Drunk Tomato posted:Van Gogh is really awesome, to be fair Yeah I was going to call them basic but that is true. yeah I eat rear end posted:It happens in pretty much everything though. People who want to seem smart and worldy will obsess over either the most famous or most difficult to understand thing. I always laugh when people say their favorite book is Ulysses (I heard this all the time in highschool at least). The stdh is probably 90% of them never read it and 95+% of those who did didn't really understand it. I got one chapter in and thought it was way too much work and gave up. I can understand appreciating it for what it is, but I am convinced that anyone who lists it as their "favorite/most enjoyable novel" is full of poo poo. Finnegan's Wake is much more suspect, however I completely believe anyone who says their favourite Joyce writings are the farting letters he sent to his wife.

Does anyone have that text convo that could be STDH or AUG but it's basically some guy getting texts off another guy telling him to stay away from his girlfriend. As time goes by though it's very clear the texter isn't the girl's BF he's just a weird stalker.

I think he means less basing it on rich, poor, or ethnicity but that you have a fair idea after a minute or so of chatter how likely you are to get a tip. You're right that it's still stereotyping to a degree but it's quite different.

Because most likely they're not a parent and are actually a teenager. It's still loving weird but understandable in the context of "I wish my parents were like me and understood me better". Or maybe it is a loving mental adult.

SerialKilldeer posted:I"m looking for a parody of those right-wing "student outwits atheist/liberal professor" e-mail forwards, and I think this thread is the right place to ask. The story goes something like this: the professor announces that students must swear a loyalty oath to Karl Marx, who is the most evolved being that ever lived. Our hero holds up a rock and asks, if evolution is real, why hasn't this rock turned into a monkey? The professor is so overwhelmed by this argument that he immediately keels over dead, the other students all convert to Christianity, and a bald eagle flies into the room and sheds a single tear. yes! and It contains the phrase "he said quite jewishly" which is incredible and the eagels name is small governmentT e: found it based on that eagles name lol quote:”Before the class begins, you must get on your knees and worship Marx and accept that he was the most highly-evolved being the world has ever known, even greater than Jesus Christ!”

After that the dude I shot haunted me saying that I ate him?! They do that if the guy is just sleeping and then if you eat the vulture then it cancels your no kill run, goddamnit kojima you piece of poo poo I had to replay the whole game. Also in the river where all the guys you killed appeared they get unique animations on how they died and that guy will even say "you ate me!"

Getting asked an unanswerable or weird question to see how you react isn't that strange, perhaps they wanted to see what someone would do when asked a silly question. Or maybe they thought a dumb question like that would be a nice opener to relax someone. I'm not arguing this happened because I hate that poo poo but it's within the realm of plausibility sans bon mot and mainly I just thought it was funny you called it out but then said you'd do the same thing

Haifisch posted:It'd save everyone time if they did those "on a scale of 1 to 10, how likely are you to murder your boss?" questionaires instead. At least those just filter out the people too stupid to lie. I was applying to work in a banks tech division a while ago and I had to fill out a form of 100 questions with three options and you had to choose an answer you most agree with and least agree with and about half the questions were like "which of these describes you?" 1) I love embezzling and doing crimes 2) I love breaking the rules if it means doing something easily 3) Punctual

I tutored a mature student from Albania I think once and her name was Inelda because Imelda was a banned name for being too Western. On the day her mother went to get her name official registered it was a novice clerk and she managed to badger her into letting Inelda be registered as a name. It's pronounced Imelda though lol e: I could be wrong on the country

It's not banned most people are just sensible enough not to call their child Adolf. They do have rules about no "degrading or embarrassing names" so you can't call your kid Uglyface Poopsnout or whatever. However it's extremely dumb to compare Hitler to a serial killer lol EmmyOk has a new favorite as of 12:27 on Aug 29, 2017 |

Zanzibar Ham posted:I'd actually believe something like that happened, mostly since I had a similar experience when we started studying exponents, and me having learned about it a bit from my brother (and being a proto-goon) was real eager to show that I know that any number to the power of 0 is actually 1 and oh I'm so smart, but the teacher said things to the power of 0 are actually equal to 0. I was confused, especially when I asked her after the class ended and she said 'oh, it's just easier to teach it like that at first'. I suppose maybe it is? I dunno. This is just bizarre. Children are definitely told things in class that aren't exactly true to help teach them but it's usually by giving them a simpler version of a complex concept or by leaving certain things out. For example when you teach them square roots first you don't need to go into imaginary numbers. Or if you're explaining the cell you might just go thorough some of the simpler processes and leave out the less important structures. Telling them something specifically wrong like the power of 0 is 0 is weird to me because i don't think it's any simpler than telling them it's actually 1. Anyway my favourite fake stories are from Gecko45. The guy appears on a gun forum asking for advice about body armour and it raises flags with people and he reveals he's a mall cop. He starts spinning the most extravagant bullshit about his mastery of ninjitsu(sic) as well as saving the mayor's nephew's anal virginity which allowed them a bazooka license in the mall. Later on another poster shows up and starts fervently agreeing with Gecko and his status as an "operator". I think first read through this when I was 15 and by the end it was clear that the second guy was trolling and later I just kind of assumed they both were trolling from the start. I haven't read it in a long while but I think regardless of it was a troll or not it's a really fun read. This link has all the posts archived as well as a few of the reactions and occasional explanations e.g. "new thread about X from here". The Legend of Gecko45
