No. The effect that supposedly does it isn't strong enough to overtake things like imperfections in the bowl or basin, the momentum of the water when it's poured, etc.

Interesting, I heard a flat eaerther today try to use this as proof they are lying about the earth not being flat


A flat earther saying something stupid, you say?

Either way, just because you don't follow a religion, doesn't mean you don't have a code of ethics or beliefs. It just means those beliefs don't revolve around deities or a system of divine blessings and punishment.


This. I try to be a decent human being not because I'm worried about eternal torment, but because it makes sense and generally tends to make my life and the lives of those I care about better. I don't murder because that's going to ruin my life and cause all kinds of pain to the people I love. I don't steal because that's risking the same. I help others because generally speaking, when someone thinks you're a good person they're more likely to help you out in return when you need it. And everyone eventually needs it. I don't see any reason for a god to be involved.

Just had a customer come in to buy beer. He was in his mid-20's and wearing Christmas themed onesie pajamas. Bright green and red with a candy cane and mistletoe pattern.

That was strange enough. But the very next guy to come in, before I'd even finished the transaction, was in probably his 40's and wearing a literal bathrobe with sweatpants and a button-down dress shirt. He then leans in front of the christmas pajamas guy as I'm giving him change and asks "you got any rubbers?" O_o

The christmas guy and his friend (who is a regular and was dressed normally, fwiw) both just look at me a bit stunned, and then christmas guy says "I really thought I was going to be your weirdest customer tonight..."

This may have been the strangest 10 minutes of work ever.

Aristoph

...it's going to be, and yet it somehow seems like nobody else can see it?

Obviously this probably happens most often with games, and Fallout 76 is just the most recent example. But it also happens in other areas like sports teams or, hell, even new soda flavors. Anybody else see that disgusting Pepsi Fire crap they put out a few months ago?

It just makes no sense to me. With Fallout 76, they got to their third bullet point about the game and I already knew it was going to be trash. 1. Open world. Okay, it's Fallout, so that's to be expected. 2. Always online. Well, that's unfortunate, but does kind of seem to be the way the industry is going, so even though I don't like it that won't kill the game. 3. No NPCs. U wot m8? The entire allure of Fallout is interacting with crazy characters and seeing all the different ways you can take their mini stories. Joke game confirmed.

With Destiny 2, I was out before they'd even announced it. They showed their scummy business practices with Destiny 1 and I abandoned ship. A few of the guys I had met through the game kept playing and were so hyped for Destiny 2. They kept messaging me asking if I was coming back with the new game and I told them not only was I not, but they shouldn't waste their money on it either. They did, and every single one of them had given up on the game within a month. One of them even messaged me to say he wished he'd listened to me.

I'm not even gonna get started on sports teams' fans. I know most of them are a lost cause anyway. But I wish more people understood that you can be a fan of a team and still be able to look at the season and say "yeah, we're probably not winning many games this year." That doesn't mean you don't support the team. It just means you're not delusional.

So why does it seem so hard for tons of people to see what seems to be so fucking obvious?

No. Can't impact something that doesn't exist.

So it's "live" right now, and I can "connect to online services" fine.

But when I tried to start a game, I kept getting either "No servers matching your configuration found" or "The server you were connected to suddenly shut down" every time.

Can't even get to their supposed Closed Alpha discussion forum either, because every time I click on the link from the e-mail I get sent to a screen with a loading bar and the words "Your request is currently being processed" that auto-refreshes every 5 seconds repeatedly forever. -_-

So has anybody actually been able to...y'know...play it?

Customer: OSU better step it up!
Me: Yeah, I guess. I don't particularly care for college football.
Customer: Well they're up by 10 right now.
Me: Oh. Okay. That's cool.
Customer: Yeah, but they should be crushing them. It's closer than it should be.
Me: Alright, I guess. Again, I really don't follow college sports.
Customer: Alabama won tonight, too.
Me: Umm...neat? Maybe? I don't even know if that's a good thing or a bad thing.
Customer: Well if they lost that would have meant...
Me: *interrupting* Look, I have no idea what you're talking about. You may as well be talking to a brick wall on this subject right now. I don't follow college sports. I don't know who's good or bad beyond Alabama is always good and OSU is usually overrated. So if you're looking for a deep dive into NCAA football you're talking to the wrong guy. Now if you want to talk about the NFL, I think the Browns and Texans tomorrow is gonna be a really good game.
Customer: Oh...yeah, it should be a fun one tomorrow. Have a good night.
Me: You too. Take care.

And this is a pretty constant thing. Someone will mention something I have absolutely no knowledge of, and while I understand that they're just making small talk so I try to humor them, when I make it clear that I have NO UNDERSTANDING of what they're going on about it should be a pretty good sign that maybe a different subject is in order. And almost invariably they just keep rambling on and on about the same thing and I just stare at them with glazed over eyes waiting for the misery to end. :-/

Not really. When people use female pronouns for me, I have no idea if it's sincere, or if they're saying it just because they think they have to. Probably the latter, though. _


Whether they want to or actually care about it or not, they are willing to use the pronouns you want them to use.

Hardcore pornography? Probably a terrible idea that would cause all kinds of issues with young children.

General nudity? Probably healthier than the "your body is wrong" attitude we press upon kids these days. It's really no wonder so many young adults are getting confused when we're simultaneously telling them that showing any skin is disgraceful while heaping all kinds of praise on them for being proud of their bodies. Mixed signals much?
