Nobody touches my cello. The last person who did staved in the side.

I mean, #1, yes, but #2? Eeeeeeh…

Okay, when did mansplaining change from overexplaining something simple because the listener isn’t a man to just explaining things in a horrendously incorrect manner?

This isn’t mansplaining, this is just being a massive christian dumbass.

It’s great, don’t look up any advice or guides. Everything can be found by exploring; they put the stuff you need right in your face and it’s a relatively small map.

You should know what category you fall into… It’s not like getting banned and going somewhere else is an event chain you wouldn’t know about.

The peroxide didn’t work for me once the wax became impacted. Maybe if I had repeated it several times in the course of a day, but it was easier to just repeat the trip to the doctor to have them get it out. Losing your hearing absolutely sucks, and I didn’t want to delay getting it back.

I don’t know, man, I think I could last an hour, maybe even two, before all the skin fell off. Even with the best lube, you’re gonna do some damage for 720 hours straight.

It’s much, much quicker, simpler, and easier to reach into the ear canal and gently scrape out the wax. The few times I used any fluid, it was a tiresome affair, and it never really got out all of the wax that could start to build. You would have to do it every other day to prevent real buildup, and that would be a gigantic pain.

I have the same experience, generally. It will definitely have a lot of room to wiggle around, depending on the particular gun’s characteristics, the bullet’s characteristics, and even the surrounding environment. If you read the wikipedia on it, you’ll even see a section complaining about how measured dB levels are nearly useless if the distance from the source isn’t measured. A lawn mower across the street isn’t such a big deal, but the one pushing it should have hearing protection.

Plot twist: This guy’s a republican and it wasn’t him taking the test.

Not that I’m not crossing everything except the streams that she beats the fascist, but women ≠ Harris voters. Trump won the white women vote in both 16 and 20.

Even now, there’s a shitload of racist and/or religious white women eagerly voting away their own rights, so don’t celebrate yet!

I am deep undercover with all of my acquaintances, and it is astonishing how many of them are single issue voters, and the issue is democrat/republican. Their only source of news is fox ‘news’, talk radio, or people parroting those two. Maga and most republicans really are a cult in regards to their propensity to not listen to anything that contradicts what their leaders say. Their desires, contrary to their party’s actions, about reproductive rights or liberal ideals won’t make a difference. It doesn’t matter if they are a woman, they are intimately tied to their party at this point, and not its principles/policies.

Q-tips suck at cleaning ear canals. All they do is push the damn ear wax further up inside, worsening my already bad tendency to get impacted wax in the first place. I can only imagine that people who use q-tips to clean have these cavernous canals that make family guy’s ear-sex joke actually possible.

It’s why I use those meant-for-glasses tiny screwdrivers.

I have a friend who loves that movie because it just leaves him and his wife gasping for breath between their ceaseless laughs. My personal favorite is

Congratulations on your hearing damage making things seem quiet? I’ve had somewhat fewer rounds, maybe 100k-200k, and 9mm is still deafeningly loud. I’m betting it’s because I wore hearing protection for most of it…

For god’s sakes, a simple internet search immediately shows the lack of evidence for 9mm being quiet.

Yeah, good point, gun safety is very Important. Guns aren’t toys.

I’m betting it was the weekly delivery of flowers with ‘anonymous’ notes that left no doubt who was sending them if a moment’s thought was used.

There’s a few movies that get it mostly right. Wasn’t it the entire plot of the movie 30 days of darkness? I think it was still too light in those last days depicted before darkness fell.

And if whatever sheared off the part of the spaceship/satellite changed it’s momentum. If I’m on a space station, and fling something directly towards the earth, from my perspective it will fall directly towards earth for quite some time (probably out of eyesight) before the orbital movements make it behave in odd (compared to on-the-surface) ways.

True, but I was thinking the sign might be from as far back as the microwave one.

It also means I can just flip my front visor down and not worry about stinking goggles.

Bunker gear is the typical ‘fire-proof’ gear you see firefighters in when they might go into a burning building. Big, bulky, heavy, and often made of asbestos.
