Am I understanding you correctly? There is a standard somewhere that says you can’t have tires of a certain width on a car unless the car is also broad?
Why is that even a requirement? I thought broad tires were safer, why would the width of the car have anything to do with it?
Coconut, olive, anything else just for occasional flavor but better if avoided, canola and soy are the worst. that’s my personal unresearched ranking.
This took me longer to understand than I’d like to admit
I hate this about newer car models. Many are unnecessarily wide. Lanes don’t get wider though.
This happens to me as well, and just like your husband I’m not one to close gaps on purpose to others.
It could have been much worse. He (and the house) could have been eaten, eaten by an entity made of… something unfathomable
168, I’m okay with it though 5 cm extra would be nice.
No, but I watched it as a kid regardless.
Do The Powerpuff Girls fit in this category? Really gory and with some inappropriate themes especially since they’re supposed to be little kindergarten age girls. Loved the show, I occasionally watch an episode as an adult.
Was also a fan of Billy and Mandy, nice to see that one as the post opener.
As for other shows, as a kid I loved watching Aeon Flux and I am still not sure wtf was going on in some of those episodes.
Moral Orel is another great show, smart and witty, although I discovered it as an adult.
“you’ll shit bricks when you see it”. Guess he saw it, whatever that was
Gurney is a master of his craft, I couldn’t blame you for liking his art. I like it too
Wow the only way I’d be part of the 1% then. No clue on what that is
Them being hard to fake is a really good point, good thinking.
No no it wasn’t just a shiny metal. Silver and gold were (still are) noble metals, and that means they are more inert than other metals, and by inert I mean “it doesn’t rust or tarnish”. Silver sometimes tarnishes, but gold is very hard to tarnish.
And you may think, so what, big deal, it just saves time polishing metal. Right? No, if you ever ate from a brass or any other alloy metal cutlery/plates, you will remember the absolutely horrible bitter taste these metals have. You pretty much have to hard scrub and polish each piece daily to avoid getting that taste. Tarnished silver otoh, doesn’t taste as bad. So not only it takes longer to tarnish but even if it does it gets a pass. Bear in mind stainless steel and plastic weren’t really a thing back then, so you’d be stuck with metal or wood for cutlery.
But wait, there is more. Both silver and gold are particularly malleable and ductile; this means you can hammer them, beat them, bend them, and spin them into very thin threads and the metal won’t break as easily as other metals do. I’ve worked as a silversmith so I’ve experienced this first hand. Working brass into shape and adding ornamentation to it is very hard, you need to anneal it constantly and use more force. It cracks more easily while you work it too. Copper is slightly better, but silver is way ahead any of them, and gold is just like working butter. There is no comparison. Much easier, really good results. Also gold has a slightly higher melting point than silver, meaning it’s somewhat easier to solder.
All this makes gold and silver the only fitting choices for fine jewelry and luxury items such as silverware, trophies, embroidered clothing, etc. And these items signify wealth and status, so, obviously, this made gold and silver very valuable and useful back in the day.
I love this concept of a creature/monster, is it canon in any lore or is it just a thing from this comic? I’ve never heard of it before
Many already said how people start dancing. I’ll add some things to keep in mind:
1- culture is a massive factor: nobody mentioned birthday parties. I’m going to presume kids don’t dance at birthday parties in English speaking countries, but elsewhere in the world you have birthdays and I’m going to guess other festivities in other cultures include dancing. That’s a major step before you are old enough to go clubbing. Freestyle in the case of birthdays, but you also need to keep in mind my next point,…
2- TV, Music videos, Videogames and whatever media in which people see these moves also helps people learn them. It’s not uncommon for a small group of friends trying out if they can do this Celebrity Move like in Such Video Clip or whatever and this can happen while they hang out anywhere, even during school breaks.
So yes, if you have the inclination for dancing you have plenty of opportunities to practice and learn as you grow.
Skyrim and Zelda obscure?
Also I’m not going to challenge the earnings of Clash of Clans, but, why is it the most influential?
So… The car equivalent of adding those extra cucumber slices to the burger so it doesn’t count as a confectionery item?
