That’s why NASA invented Tang.

Half the reason I still visit Reddit is so that I can hit /gme_meltdown (the other half is sports.)

I prefer people do that than either delete the comment, or edit the original. Otherwise the comment chain makes no sense, and people don’t get a chance to learn from the original incorrect comment.

Just use your hand. If the beer is in a bottle, leave it so the neck is sticking out of the ice water and spin it that way (this also works very well for wine.) If it’s a can, stick it in vertically, and spin it for 30 seconds at a time or whatever you can stand.

Even if you aren’t constantly spinning it, it will still get cold much faster than any other method. I’ve worked in bars and restaurants for 15 years, and this is my go to, in case of emergency method for chilling beverages.

The social media algorithms were definitely much different in 2014. They tended to promote links to outside articles and trending topics, even if those links were to BuzzFeed listicles. In 2015/16 they had all changed to trying to keep people engaged on the original site, so they started pushing rage bait that would get people arguing in the comments.

In 2014, everybody was talking about what color that dress was. In 2015, Breitbart was like the number 3 most popular shared “news” site on Facebook.

No, crypto is never the solution for anything. Its use cases are limited to drugs and scams, which are sometimes the same things.

Meta is behind the lobbying that’s going to get it banned here.

That probably voids the entire warranty or something ridiculous like that.

I’m the flip side, Go back and watch Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom. Once you’re done cringing at the racism, think about the fact that Harrison Ford went on an intense weightlifting program for that movie, and was considered the most shredded leading man in Hollywood at the time. Actors using steroids has become so common that it has also skewed our perception of a normal fit guy’s body.

The NFL doesn’t own the teams. The teams, collectively, own the NFL.

I have a friend that is a sales manager for private planes. He said business exploded during the pandemic and then never slowed down. This despite flights being eye-wateringly expensive (like, 20k for one-way is a great deal, because you managed to book an empty leg.)

The only thing they moderate is people calling musk mean names.

You might see it that way, because you’re predisposed to seeing how ridiculous it is, but people have been using this unironically for a long time now.

Yeah, the Mediterranean market near me just got a new credit card reader and the pre loaded software came with the tip screen on it.

I also want to add that many landlords were beginning to demand that their tenants pay with venmo, or other e-payment services, and those leeches need to pay their taxes.

There are some movies that just don’t exist on streaming. I’ve torrented movies, then looked them up to see what service they’re streaming on, and you just can’t watch them, not even an option to pay for it.

Lol, they’re upset because their stock dropped when they fired him. That’s all this is.

Before you go, “oh, they’re non-profit!” They have a for profit subsidiary.

The non-profit has a corporate arm. take a look at that structure.

Typical Yankees fan

Gun control is tricky; studies that I’ve seen show that a large majority want “dune kind of gun control” but any discussion of what that entails starts to get less popular in a hurry.

I’ve found that many otherwise reasonable people get upset really quickly when the subject even gets brought up.
