  • Ok this is super good! I would love if he woke up in a museum (the British museum would an extra layer of confusion) and was caught on camera by the visitors. Some people think it's just a way to advertise the museum but archeologists/military are using it to figure out what happened.

  • Omg we are such opposites. I grew up in FL and 60sF (15C) is winter for us. Like people will straight up wear jackets in the 60s. I love weather in the 80sF (26C), 90sF (32C) is bearable, but 100sF (37C) is horrible and stay inside as much as possible.

  • I 100% know people who never discussed their religion/culture before starting to date and then refused to address their obvious religious/cultural differences for way to long. I live in a major city in the US so we have tons of people from all sorts of backgrounds. Some people I know don't want to bring up their religious/cultural beliefs until they know the person a bit better but by then they are in deep and don't want to leave despite the glaring differences.

  • I seriously thought about this and in my opinion, no. With it upside down, the head opening would be right at your privates making them more like pantalettes (old timey open-crotch underware).

  • I agree completely because it's super confusing for most women to find the right bra. Which then leads to women wearing the wrong size and feeling uncomfortable.

  • Breast size has no affect on breast feeding. Any sources to back up your claim?

  • This graph is useless because cup size ≠ breast size. Cup and band sizes go together to fit the person. A 34D is way smaller than a 40D even though they are the same cup size. Without the band size we have no idea what the real difference is. This video explains it pretty well: https://youtu.be/L9JZzPMHok8

  • Omg thank you for this!!! I never understood when whom would ever be used!!

  • I know!! I can't imagine Zuko with any other voice!!

  • So I think the "horse is likely to bite you if you’re looking in its mouth too closely" is an assumption we both had about this phrase. I grew up in the suburbs and rarely saw horses so I assumed this phrase was about it possibly bitting. However I now live in a more rural area and horses are pretty sweet and the only reason anyone looks in their mouth is to make sure they're healthy or figure their age. I'm guessing you, like me, also grew up not around horses so we assumed the English version means something different than it probably did in the past when horses were common place.

  • So not trying to argue, just have a genuine conversation. Talking from an American perspective, British implies the British Isles (place) to me and not the people (who I honestly have no idea when they lived or currently live there??). I'm not familiar with any other name for the isles (again speaking as an American).

    Also, I think (or hope) that most people would understand and any research into the Iron Age is only showing a survival bias that may not indicate the whole population in an area. However, I think it's fair to state that if you see a trend across multiple sites in roughly the same time period, it indicates a larger cultural practice in that area because we are only seeing a small amount of surving evidence. For this reason, I think "some" is too broad.

  • It shouldn't say "Some", it should say "British" because if you read the article this seems to be a trend across British iron age communities.

  • I was about to roll my eyes and scroll past your comment but then I read "powdered wig". I was committed to read it all when I saw "smoothbore". The "tally ho lads" was hilarious. Great job all the way through!

  • So I didn't read all the replies so I'm not sure if someone said this better but physical attraction has many parts and the best thing you can do is figure out what exactly you are attracted to and find someone who meets most of that. For example, maybe you like dark hair, angular nose, and light eyes. Then you can look for someone with those features.

    However I would like to say that attraction is so much more than physical and I truly think you should focus on what non-physical things you are attracted to instead. Years ago I figured out I wanted a partner with a similar sense of humor, kind/caring, and actually listened to me when I talked. When I focused on people with those qualities I had such a better dating experience. I ended up marrying someone who previously wouldn't have been a top pick physically but our emotional connection is super strong.

    I've seen so many friends struggle with relationships where the physical attraction is strong but they don't fully click on everything else. What I'm saying is find the qualities thst really matter to you both physical and personality-wise and look for people who fit those. You'll be surprised to see how your preferences can change physically when you're with someone you have a strong emotional connection with.

  • I also didn't think I would be on the cheating husband's side but good for him standing up for his kids. I've seen far to many fathers drop their kids for their new girlfriend/wife.

  • This would be a great short story if for some reason the AI didn't realize there was going to be a date issue and didn't properly update itself causing it to crash. Then the problem is it was self sufficient for so long no humans know how to restart it or fix the issue, causing society to have a technology blackout for the first time in centuries.

  • The retirement community my elderly uncle lived in worked with a local hospital that would schedule all the appointments for the same day, around the same time. They had almost every specialty in the same building so the residents could see the various doctors they needed. But if you had your own doctor at a separate place, you could schedule it ahead of time and they would drive you there. However this was a high-end community that cost a lot, so I'm sure if cheaper places would offer the same options.

  • I always say "Digiorno!" when I see him.

  • And Florida! They will be the first to go.
