Lada Laika Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 My monitor died today and I was real cheesed about it until I realized I had been using the same one since 2010. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Braintree Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 I'm just joking around. It's a good doc if you're interested in the subject. Frighteningly, it still holds up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YEK Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 (edited) I like to imagine my beef just magically appears in McDonald's freezers, then it gets cooked up and I eat it. Ignorance is bliss. Also: My sister takes forever to respond to texts or emails. I mean how hard is it to respond to a text? It is the quickest way to contact someone. Instead she'll read a text and then forget about it. She does the same thing to my mom sometimes, who she gets along with really well, so it's not just me.

drillkicker Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 (edited) All animals, humans included, have E. coli in the intestinal tract. If we didn't, we wouldn't be able to process oligosaccharides and other compounds that we eat every day. The problem is with mutated strains of E. coli that don't live symbiotically with us.

Zephyr_Nova Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 But is it a stupid first world problem, or a serious all world problem? Or maybe it's just a sort of okay thing.

YEK Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 The alimentary canal, which is also called the gastrointestinal (GI) tract or gut, is the entire length of tube that winds through the body from the mouth to the anus. It digests, breaks down and absorbs food through its lining into the blood. Organs within the alimentary canal include the mouth, pharynx, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, and large intestine. The alimentary canal is considered outside of the body because it is open to the external environment at each end (mouth, anus). If that doesn't blow your mind...

Zephyr_Nova Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 SFWP: the inability to react to one's own posts on here. On facebook, if I post something that's solid gold and no one responds I can add the laughing guy or whatever as a sarcastic "look you idiots, here is the appropriate response" so that everyone feels really stupid for missing it. But here there's no way to do that. Awful, really. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zephyr_Nova Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 (edited) SFWP #2: people posting vids as examples of good vocal performances, and all I can notice is how many flat notes there are (from a vocalist who I previously thought had an excellent sense of pitch... happened a couple times recently. Interesting that those are the ones people often choose when there are so many other examples of those same performers nailing it. Maybe bad pitch gets interpreted as more emotional by some people? Happens a lot in the studio as well when we're choosing the favourite takes. Weird.) Edited June 3, 2020 by Zephyr_Nova Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve seen videos where the human anus was definitely outside the body so this seems entirely believable. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
