  • I was thinking the same, it's not aiming at any gender as far as I can tell. I took it as a wink at the "men always want sex, no exceptions" stereotype/gender norm. But, I'm a man and all that proves is that the slogan is vague enough that each reader will have their own personal interpretation of it's exact meaning based on their own experience.

    In that sense it is indeed a terrible slogan if only for the fact that it seems to elicit a negative, but highly personalised, meaning for everyone. The exact opposite of what you hope to achieve with a slogan.

  • Reading the title I thought they took away the lunch breaks of people working with children and thought "that would de heartless". Then it dawned on me what the title actually says...

  • I don't think they're necessarily saying their housemate is wrong. I took it as them just pointing out how it gets old fast. Which is also my interpretation of what the meme represents.

  • I thought the same thing. Though it looks like the mirror is at an angle in the corner so I could imagine approaching it from the left or right means you don't see your reflection until you connect with it.

  • I believe beardyman to be skilled enough to indeed make it a surprisingly respectful event. Right up until the end when he suddenly launches into fartnoise DnB, of course.

  • A brick is more aerodynamic than a Wrangler. Fun fact about bricks: they're rock types but some dedicated trainers have been known to make their bricks use the Fly move without ever using the HM.

  • What happened in those years and why were they omitted? It's odd that they just leave it out with (as far as I could tell from the linked source) no explanation for that.

  • Don't know what the 2019 yaris is like but my 2006 yaris with 335.000 KMs on the odometer regularly sits in the drive for a week, sometimes two at a time without moving. I had a battery die on me after towing a caravan in 38°C weather with it for a whole day. This was in 2018, that battery lasted me until last year when the mechanic told me it was going down and needed replacing. All this to say that unless Toyota has gone to absolute shit over the years then I'm guessing something isn't quite right with your mum's yaris.

    (okay yes, I also wanted to put my trooper of a yaris in the spotlight. My first car ever and the best deal I will ever make in my life).

  • a human can be mapped in minutes, if not seconds.

    Purely from a technical standpoint I'm wondering what you're referring to here. Most of my work is DNA sequencing using different techniques and while we can do it blisteringly fast if necessary it still takes at minimum a few hours to isolate dna, prep the dna for sequencing and then running for 24 hours followed by data analysis. That's for bacterial DNA, I don't have experience with sequencing human genomes but I imagine it is more complicated than bacteria. But, I haven't kept up with literature on this subject lately so now I'm wondering if I've missed some breakthrough technique that speeds up the process to minutes.

  • and less enjoyable to walk.

    Which, incidentally, is great for car manufacturers!
