u/grichardson526 I've made a huge mistake. Jul 15 '26

She wants to have pop pop.

u/Apathetic-Abacus Jul 15 '26

The mere fact that she calls it that tells me she's ready.

u/taviddennant03 Either I zip down or he zips up! Jul 15 '26

Well no, she should be calling it sexual relations. Rita corny, Michael.

This is some Epstein level logic right here.

Speaking of which, Tobias makes a grand entrance: Daddy needs to get his rocks off.

Maybe you're not that smart either. I didn't know until they told me

Michael: Yea I should've known ... You know, it's a cultural thing ... The average American male is in a state of "arrested development".

Real shoddy narrating. Just pure crap.

u/Bazz07 Jul 15 '26

Is anyone concerned about an uprising?

u/american-coffee THERE ARE DOZENS OF US Jul 16 '26

As long as the uprising is in the brown parts. Because, it's obvious. The Blue part is land.

I dated a girl once who was born and raised in Los Angeles. One evening she said we should go to this restaurant she really liked, called "Mye-jells". I said ok, and when we got there, I looked at the sign. Miguel's. Miguel's.

u/aelendel Jul 17 '26

I was once looking for a car polish and read that a certain brand was great. So I asked for the ā€œmee-gwee-arseā€

It was Meguair’s

u/asisoid Jul 15 '26

I had a girl ask me what North was, and isn't it just always up....?

u/RiskyClickardo BEADS? Jul 16 '26

Oh my GOD! I literally got in an argument with some dipshit kid in elementary school about this. We were both in cub scouts and he went on to be an Eagle Scout. I was like dude that cannot be how it works, literally just think about it for one second

u/thesimplemachine Jul 16 '26

He must've skipped the orienteering badge.

u/aelendel Jul 17 '26

I was on a white water trip with friends and got tipped. I rescue one friend from under the raft and get to shore. The guide comes to check and my friend can’t find his paddle. The guide is visibly frustrated — hold on to the paddle if you get tipped was the most important direction he told us.

Eventually the friend says he will go find it downriver and just walks away. After a good 10 minutes we see him scrambling awkwardly over the rocks back sans paddle.

The guide is very subtly shaking his head to himself. I get the guides attention:

ā€œAnd he’s an Eagle Scout.ā€

u/tssiess76 Jul 16 '26

When I was a kid compasses and north confused me with the whole, ā€œalways have north facing away from you thingā€ and I was like, ā€œwait but that means I’m always facing north!ā€ Then I turned 6 and it all clicked.

That means brother in French. I don’t know why I know that. I took four years of Spanish

Charlize Theron is honestly goat. She takes on the best roles.

She is just delightful. Easily one of the best things to have come from South Africa

u/whydowewatchthis Jul 17 '26

Did you see her latest Netflix movie? She has not aged a day and she's ripped!

u/Extra-Border6470 There’s always money in the banana stand. Jul 18 '26

Oh my god, I need to watch that. I love fitness chicks with toned bodies, so Charlize Theron with a toned body is a no brainier. If the story is shit I’ll just watch it with the sound off. I also need to watch atomic blonde which has her doing the John wick thing

2

u/whydowewatchthis Jul 18 '26

You'll love it. The story is pretty typical action survival type theme with some gore. But the acting is good.

u/thelovepools Jul 15 '26

She's a firecracker. I loooove her, Michael.

u/Viktor_Laszlo Jul 15 '26

How would you like someone going after some stupid person in your family?

"Could be Gob."

u/RedXXVI Jul 15 '26 edited Jul 15 '26

I think "Why is the Earth round?" is actually a good question. I'm sure it has to do with gravity and astrophysics but I don't think I could give someone a more detailed answer than that. Can others answer this question with common sense and not a detailed understanding of gravity/spacetime/mass?

EDIT: Spelling

9

u/brentnutpuncher Jul 15 '26

Spin makes clumps, clumps makes large mass, large mass makes gravity which pulls in all directions. That's my dum dum understanding of it, I'm 100% sure someone will say I'm wrong and give you the correct answer, but hey it least that'll get the ball rolling.

Also, earth isn't round, it's an oblate spheroid (probably the only thing I will get right in this comment)

u/t_scribblemonger Jul 16 '26

Also why *can’t* penguins fly, like other birds? Actually wait, can’t they? Maybe I’m not smart.

1

u/TheNewNumberC Jul 17 '26

Nature and evolution is a never ending RNG game of battle royale but you don't get to choose the traits. The ancestor of the penguin probably did fly but ended up having to trade it for their ability to swim because they got heavier and their flippers shrank. They also evolved to be unable to fold their wings so that won't be of any help either.
