I still remember the way my science teacher explained a hypothetical warp drive (like how it is in Star Trek). He took a black towel, representing space, and laid it flat on a table. He set down a miniature model of the Enterprise on one end of the towel, then accordion-folded the towel up so that the other end was close to the ship. He moved the Enterprise over to that end of the towel, and unfolded it so that it was flat again. The Enterprise was now on the other end of the table.
An overly simplified visualization, but it really illustrated the idea to my ten year old brain how space-time could hypothetically be bent to make fast interstellar travel a possibility. Also it made me realize that warp speed on the Enterprise wasn't just a super powerful rocket or something.
I'm gonna be that guy from Mad Max 2 (The Road Warrior for us USians) who spends the majority of the movie held hostage and tied to the front of Lord Humongous' buggy and at the end gets smashed up against the back of Mel Gibson's tanker truck when Mel brake checks Humongous.
Huh, i don't remember being in any presidential debate.
"Obama is an Arab." "No, he's not, he's a decent family man and citizen."
Even when I was a lib I thought that take was condescending and racist as fuck. Arabs can't be decent or citizens? WTF John, and WTF libs for thinking that's taking the moral high ground??
Software tutorials especially. Even worse are the ones that are screen recorded off a 4K desktop so that unless you're also watching the video at 4K, you're not gonna be able to see where the mouse cursor is because the compression makes it almost invisible.
I wouldn't blame it on the current generation, though. People my own age do this shit too.
I shouldn't complain too much because it's free tech support and they're making these videos for no money , and probably for a program that I pirated.

Lmao holy shit this unlocked a memory. As a kid I'd post on a Hey Arnold fan forum in 1999-2000, and I remember the absolute hate train that Spongebob got from the posters there.
I didn't think much about Spongebob myself for a couple years until I saw the episode "Band Geeks" in like 2002.
Also Rocket Power... That was one of those shows that merely existed. I didn’t encounter anyone who had anything bad to say about it, but I was hard pressed to find a diehard fan. All I remember about it was the dialogue was "hello, fellow kids" tier (even moreso than a typical Nick show) and full of slang that was about 10 years out of date by 1999.
That's pretty much all mainstream news now. The worst is articles that are just tweets of people reacting to what happened.
never gonna give you up never gonna let you down?
Yes, and?
My favorite are the people who hate the big city because of the traffic, but are also opposed to any alternative form of transportation (bike lanes, trains) that would take more vehicles off the roads.
I've been coal rolled, had beer cans and other garbage thrown at me and almost clipped nearly every time I go out biking. And I live in a town with some decent bike infrastructure. If I ever retaliated, you can bet these assholes would be on Facebook in an instant talking about how aggressive and entitled cyclists are.
