Best comment explanation I've read yet as to why it's important!

Thanks!

Murder is a crime. And it’s bad. (crime doesn’t necessarily mean bad, see Robin Hood for more details)

Nazis don’t count, all you’re doing is cleaning up the trash.

I've heard plenty of people try to say WOLFENSTEIN glorifies nazis

I've had one idiot tell me ANY media that paints them as competent or successful is glorifying them. And setting anything in a world where they succeeded and progressed technologically instead of collapsing is basically saying Hitler's world view is valid.

I still don't know how to respond to that beyond "if you think the nazis were incompetent you don't know history, and if you think showing a future where fascism took hold is unrealistic I have some bad news for you"

It's fantasy, and specifically a fantasy in which you get to go on a massive killing spree against some of the worst people in history, how you can somehow pull "this game is making these guys look good" from that, I'm not sure.

Murder?

I think not. Murder is a crime. And it's bad. (crime doesn't necessarily mean bad, see Robin Hood for more details)

Nazis don't count, all you're doing is cleaning up the trash.

You can't murder a nazi. You can certainly kill them though.

It's an important distinction, in my opinion.

In highschool I was challenged, BY MY CRUSH, to play "the Awkward Game"

What does this game entail? Well it's simple. All you have to do is do or say something that makes the other person feel awkward. Once they bail, you win. If you know the other person is very uncomfortable with people in their personal space, simply sitting next to them could be enough to make them feel awkward enough to move or call time.

Her first move? To take off her bra under her shirt, pull it out through the neck of her shirt and throw it at me.

Move two was sitting on my lap

Move three was to shover her arm through my sleeve and around the back, essentially hugging me closely with no bra on, sitting on my lap, in a very form-fitting outfit.

I STILL DID NOT UNDERSTAND

WHAT ELSE DID I MISS OUT ON??

Perception is a solid 8/10. Wisdom is clearly a healthy 2.

Neat!

So super simplistic paraphrasing, once you know the shape of the box, you can start mapping around it? Maybe?

I'm not a mathologist, so this reads to me like "they proved it is what it is because of the way it is. That's pretty neat!"

I can understand it's significant, but that's about it. From my understanding, this doesn't really change anything about math, it's just something we didn't think was possible being proven possible.

Please correct me, mathletes! Hilariously almost all my fields of interest require math... cries in physics

He's right about one thing, the CIA (probably) isn't "as bad as tankies say"

It's (probably) MUCH worse.

I've had cuts I didn't know about, but the worst was when I worked retail and managed to smash my upper arm on a shelf, and apparently I was bleeding bad enough to leave a broken trail from the front of the store to the break room.

I couldn't feel anything but the aching of the blunt force trauma, I didn't feel the sharp cut or any stinging at all.

I've also had plenty of small spots I have no idea how they happened, but usually I'M the one to figure it out...

and what’s with the bruised legs?

Tldr: inattentiveness, bumping into tons of stuff, and only remembering it when you look at the bruise or someone reminds you.

An explanation that's meant to be humorous because it happens to me and my wife all the time:

"Oh my god, where did THIS bruise come from?"

earlier that day

bump "ow, how did I hit the coffee table..."

bump "fuck that hurt, I swear the counter was another 6 inches over"

smash "FUCK the freezer door closes too quickly!"

has to be reminded of these events to remember tham

"Yeah, but proceeds to present an argument that completely ignores the underlying premise that everyone should be cool with all being one planet helping each other instead of returning to squabbling tribal mentality of 'us vs them' and 'if I give them some then I'll have less' and people need to stop letting conflicts of our parents and great-great-great-x147-grandparents started decide how we view our neighbors"

Haha checkmate, logical thinkers.
