What is the scariest/creepiest theory you know about?
  • As far as I understand it, time as we know it didn't exist before the big bang, so by definition nothing existed before time. I don't really know how that works out either, I just go with what the fancy science people say

  • *Permanently Deleted*
  • Yeah, except the sweeteners they use to make diet sodas "diet" make those sodas just as bad, if not worse, than the originals. Which also works for the car analogy given the source of the energy most EVs use :/

  • never assume in life...
  • In the absence of obstructions, true! If, however, a carrot runs into an obstacle, the leaves will continue to grow while the carrot stays the same size, leading to the conundrum we see in the photo

  • What is the name of your cleaning robot?
  • We named ours after our blind cat, Musetta. She would walk in straight lines until she met a wall, at which point she would turn and continue in another straight line. She had recently died when we got our first Roomba, so it was like reincarnation to us lol.

  • The Weekly 'What are you playing?' Discussion
  • Currently taking my sweet time playing No Man's Sky. I bought it on release, never played until recently, and couldn't be happier. Avoiding the story, building a massive base, and exploring the cosmos has never been so satisfying. Next up on my list of games to check out again is Cyberpunk. Everyone and their mother says it's better now, so I figure it's worth a shot.

  • Neurotypicals clearly have ESP
  • Me too. Usually changing the script slightly to exaggerate or be bombastic works for me. Ex. "How are you today?" "I'm doing just fantastic so far, how are you?" Or "ch-ch-ch-chillin," sung to the tune of the Chia Pet jingle. Usually gets me further than "Good, you?" Social interaction is just another game I've had to get good at.

  • what's something your company did that totally killed morale?
  • After a single week of (relatively) low sales, the company slashed our labor by a third. Lost a lot of good people because we simply weren't allowed to schedule them. The skeleton crew that did remain was left to deal with the (surprise surprise) massive influx of business we received in the following two months. Did they ever give us they labor back? Negative. Now we're left dealing with 1.3x the business with 0.6x as much staff. Staff who are necessarily less stellar than their predecessors.

    God, I'm tired of buying other people's boats
