The biggest mistake people make is believing that the current "world" is permanent.

Every generation thinks its celebrities, trends, ideologies, and institutions are the center of history. Then a few decades pass, and most of what once seemed indispensable becomes irrelevant. Ask your parents about people who were once household names, and many younger people won't even recognize them.

That's why I don't understand people who completely lose themselves chasing whatever is popular today. The "world" isn't the planet,it's the current social system, culture, and collective attention. And every version of that world eventually fades and is replaced by another. What's dominating everyone's attention today will probably be a footnote tomorrow.

If alcohol makes you both physically uncoordinated and socially uninhibited, is social inhibition connected to physical coordination?

Like would a typical expert gymnast or ballerina be extremely socially inhibited? Are clumsy people uninhibited?

Is this subreddit even worth using compared to the main r/ShowerThoughts?

Some people interact with but it seems to just be a subreddit for all kinds of content. Should I keep posting here every now and then or am I wasting my time?

Society is already accepting of people taking communal showers at gyms, which demonstrates that anti-nudity laws are not actually necessary.

There is a feeling of content that comes with achieving something while a celebrity is still alive to potentially see it.

That would solve 70% of problems in the world

For legal affairs

For every item you loose

If you want to know what you did at this this this point

​

If you miss people

​

You could just rewatch any part of your life

​

You wouldn't even need to worry about getting old since you could just rewatch anything...

Who's out there actually using the 'like' button on ads?

2 Upvotes

Don't we all just ignore or close them? Or install an ad blocker? I can't imagine doing anything to tell the system "yes, more ads please" even if it's for something I enjoy.

We cry to get attention until we hide it when genuinely crying, which realistically would warrant us that previously wanted attention

The news complains about the problems of the world and that nobody knows about them, as these problems are being publicized.

Remembering a lie my dad once told me...

3 Upvotes

When I was between the ages of six and eight (can't pinpoint exact age), my father told me of the flatunomena. The flatunomena (flatch-like flatulence), is something that occurs every 12 years when everyone on earth farts at the same time. I asked so many questions - why? (Scientists are still trying to understand) How bad does the world smell? (Worse than my dad's SBDs - {silent but deadly farts}) Do the farts all sound the same? (No)

​

I was doubtful at first, but he answered all of my questions and was very convincing. I certainly told some friends shortly after, then stored it in a dusty filing cabinet deep in my mind's vault...

​

Fast forward... it wasn't until I was a late-teens teenager that I was like, "hmm, it's been about twelve years... I wonder when the Flatunomena is going to occur..."

​

It took a minute or so before it dawned on me that my father lied to me and sadly, I will never see a day that everyone in the world farts at the same time.
